Make sure that:
•
The DIMMs are seated correctly.
•
You have installed the correct type of memory.
•
If you changed the memory, you updated the memory configuration in the
Configuration/Setup Utility program.
•
All banks of memory are enabled. The blade server might have
automatically disabled a memory bank when it detected a problem, or a
memory bank might have been manually disabled.
Check the POST error log for error message 289:
•
If the DIMM was disabled by a system-management interrupt (SMI), replace
the DIMM.
•
If the DIMMs are not installed in pairs, install the DIMMs starting with DIMM
1 and DIMM 2. Make sure that there is not an unpopulated DIMM slot in the
middle or that DIMM 3 and DIMM 4 are installed before DIMM 1 and DIMM
2.
•
If the system halts, make sure that the DIMMs installed in each pair are the
same size, speed, type, technology, and physical design. Swap DIMM 3 and
DIMM 4 with DIMM 1 and DIMM 2.
•
If the system error is an unsupported memory configuration, make sure that
there is more than one DIMM installed. Install DIMMs in DIMM slots 1 and
2. If this does not fix the error, replace the DIMMs flagged in the
management module log and indicated through light path diagnostics LEDs.
•
If the DIMM was disabled by the user or by POST, run the Configuration/
Setup Utility program and enable the DIMM.
•
If this error remains, replace the DIMM.
If the problem remains, call for service.
