Advanced ECC population guidelines

For Advanced ECC mode configurations, observe the following guidelines:
•
Observe the general DIMM slot population guidelines (on page 40).
•
DIMMs may be installed individually.
Single-processor Advanced ECC population order
For Advanced ECC mode configurations with a single processor, populate the DIMM slots in the following
order:
•
RDIMM: Sequentially in alphabetical order (A through L)
•
UDIMM: A through H, sequentially in alphabetical order. Do not populate DIMM slots I through L.
Multi-processor Advanced ECC population order
For Advanced ECC mode configurations with multiple processors, populate the DIMM slots for each
processor in the following order:
•
RDIMM: Sequentially in alphabetical order (A through L)
•
UDIMM: A through H, sequentially in alphabetical order. Do not populate DIMM slots I through L.

Lockstep Memory population guidelines

For Lockstep memory mode configurations, observe the following guidelines:
•
Observe the general DIMM slot population guidelines (on page 40).
•
Always install DIMMs in channels 1 and 2 for each installed processor.
•
Do not install DIMMs in channel 3 for any processor.
•
DIMM configuration on channel 1 and channel 2 of a processor must be identical.
•
In multi-processor configurations, each processor must have a valid Lockstep Memory configuration.
•
In multi-processor configurations, each processor may have a different valid Lockstep Memory
configuration.
Population order
For memory configurations with a single processor or multiple processors, populate the DIMM slots in the
following order:
•
RDIMM: Sequentially in alphabetical order (A through L)
