1.1 Server features

The server chassis of the Power S822LC server contains two processor modules attached
directly to the board. Each POWER8 processor module is either 8-core or 10-core and has a
64-bit architecture, up to 512 KB of L2 cache per core, and up to 8 MB of L3 cache per core.
The clock speed of each processor available varies based on the model of the server that is
used.
The Power S822LC computing server provides eight DIMM memory slots. Memory features
that are supported are 16 GB (#EM55), 32 GB (#EM56), 64 GB (#EM57), and 128 GB
(#EM58), allowing for a maximum of 1024 GB DDR4 system memory.
The physical locations of the main server components are shown in Figure 1-2.
