This metric is [recommended][MetricRecommended].
Number of errors encountered on this memory module.
When using this metric, the following attributes MUST be set:
- `hw.type` MUST be set to `"memory"` to indicate that the errors are from a memory module.

**[1] `hw.type`:** Describes the category of the hardware component for which `hw.state` is being reported. For example, `hw.type=temperature` along with `hw.state=degraded` would indicate that the temperature of the hardware component has been reported as `degraded`.
**[2] `error.type`:** The `error.type` SHOULD match the error code reported by the component, the canonical name of the error, or another low-cardinality error identifier. Instrumentations SHOULD document the list of errors they report.
**[3] `network.io.direction`:** This attribute SHOULD only be used when `hw.type` is set to `"network"` to indicate the direction of the error.

### Metric: `hw.status` (Memory)
This metric is [recommended][MetricRecommended].
Operational status: `1` (true) or `0` (false) for each of the possible states.
When using this metric for memory status, the following attributes MUST be set:
- `hw.type` MUST be set to `"memory"` to indicate that the status is for a memory module.
- `hw.state` MUST be set to one of the following values to indicate the memory state:
- `"ok"`: The memory module is operating normally.
- `"degraded"`: The memory module is operating with reduced functionality or performance.
- `"failed"`: The memory module has failed and is not operational.
- `"predicted_failure"`: The memory module is currently operational but is predicted to fail soon.

| Name | Instrument Type | Unit (UCUM) | Description | Stability | Entity Associations |
| -------- | --------------- | ----------- | -------------- | --------- | ------ |
| `hw.status` | UpDownCounter | `1` | Operational status: `1` (true) or `0` (false) for each of the possible states. [1] | ![Development](https://img.shields.io/badge/-development-blue) | |
**[1]:** `hw.status` is currently specified as an *UpDownCounter* but would ideally be represented using a [*StateSet* as defined in OpenMetrics](https://github.com/prometheus/OpenMetrics/blob/v1.0.0/specification/OpenMetrics.md#stateset). This semantic convention will be updated once *StateSet* is specified in OpenTelemetry. This planned change is not expected to have any consequence on the way users query their timeseries backend to retrieve the values of `hw.status` over time.

**[1] `hw.type`:** Describes the category of the hardware component for which `hw.state` is being reported. For example, `hw.type=temperature` along with `hw.state=degraded` would indicate that the temperature of the hardware component has been reported as `degraded`.
