Are there any resources being allocated/de-allocated at that point of time?
Is it occurring at the same time everyday?
Any COD activation in place?

The system dynamically reconfigured memory page (at logical address 00000002 D1E60380) because of a bad bit, nothing to worry about and it does not warrant any service action other than the following if it is annoying you.

Details of the p5 (and p6 - I see it is on a 9117 MMA, I won't post the serial number here...) RAS features can be found here:

http://www-07.ibm.com/systems/includes/pdf/power5_ras.pdf

They used to be logged as SCAN_ERR_CHRP but I see you have the APAR that changes this to a FIRMWARE_EVENT informational message - Type: INFO = nothing to worry about but we are letting you know just in case you are interested type message.

If you want it to stop logging this run the following and then reboot:

chdev -l sys0 -a log_pg_dealloc=false

HTH
