Option Description
impact on system performance under certain workloads. This feature only
applies to x4 DIMMs, and when Fault Resilient Mode is Disabled.
Memory training When the option is set to Fast and memory configuration is not changed,
the system uses previously saved memory training parameters to train
the memory subsystems and system boot time is also reduced. If memory
configuration is changed, the system automatically enables Retrain at
Next boot to force one-time full memory training steps, and then go back
to
Fast afterward.
When option is set to Retrain at Next boot, the system performs the
force one-time full memory training steps at next power on and boot time
is slowed on next boot.
When option is set to Enable, the system performs the force full
memory training steps on every power on and boot time is slowed on
every boot.
DIMM Self Healing (Post Package Repair) on
Uncorrectable Memory Error
Enables or disables Post Package Repair (PPR) on uncorrectable memory
error. This option is set to Enabled by default.
Correctable Error Logging Enables or disables correctable error logging. This option is set to
Disabled by default.
Memory Paging Policy This field sets the Memory Paging Policy. This option is set to Closed
Paging by default.
Memory Map Out This option controls DIMMs slots on the system. This option is set to
Enabled by default. It allows to disable system installed DIMMs.
Processor Settings
To view the Processor Settings screen, power on the system, press F2, and click System Setup Main Menu > System
BIOS > Processor Settings.
Table 40.
Processor Settings details
Option Description
Logical Processor Each processor core supports up to two logical processors. If
this option is set to Enabled, the BIOS displays all the logical
processors. If this option is set to Disabled, the BIOS displays
only one logical processor per core. This option is set to Enabled
by default.
CPU Interconnect Speed Enables you to govern the frequency of the communication links
among the processors in the system.
NOTE: The standard and basic bin processors support lower
link frequencies.
The options available are Maximum data rate, 16 GT/s,
14.4 GT/s, and 12.8 GT/s. This option is set to
Maximum data rate by default.
Maximum data rate indicates that the BIOS runs the
communication links at the maximum frequency
supported by the processors. You can also select specific
frequencies that the processors support, which can vary.
For best performance, you should select Maximum data rate.
Any reduction in the
communication link frequency affects the performance of non-
local memory access and cache coherency traffic.
