5.4.4 Memory Installation Guidelines
● Observe the following when conguring DDR4 memory modules:
– Install memory modules only when corresponding processors are
installed.
– Do not install LRDIMMs and RDIMMs in the same server.
– Install
ller memory modules in vacant slots.
● Observe the following when conguring DDR4 memory modules in specic
operating mode:
– Memory sparing mode
▪ Comply with the general installation guidelines.
▪ Each memory channel must have a valid online spare conguration.
▪ The channels can have dierent online spare congurations.
▪ Each populated channel must have a spare rank.
– Memory mirroring mode
▪
Comply with the general installation guidelines.
▪
Each processor supports two integrated memory controllers (IMCs).
At least two channels of each IMC are used for installing memory
modules (channels 1 and 2, or channels 1, 2, and 3). The memory
modules installed must be identical in size and organization.
▪
For a multi-processor
conguration, each processor must have a
valid memory mirroring conguration.
– Memory scrubbing mode
▪
Comply with the general installation guidelines.
5.4.5 Memory Installation Positions
A 2288X V5 supports a maximum of 24 DDR4 memory modules. Balanced
memory conguration is recommended for optimal memory performance.
