● A server must use the same model of DDR4 DIMMs, and all the DIMMs operate
at the same speed, which is the smallest value of:
● Memory speed supported by a processor
● Maximum operating speed of a DIMM
● The DDR4 DIMMs of dierent types (RDIMM and LRDIMM) and specications
(capacity, bit width, rank, and height) cannot be used together.
● Contact your local Huawei sales representative or use the Computing Product
Compatibility Checker to determine the components to be used.
● The memory can be used with Intel
®
Xeon
®
Scalable Skylake and Cascade
Lake processors. The maximum memory capacity supported varies depending
on the processor model.
– Skylake processors
▪ M processors: 1.5 TB/socket
▪ Other processors: 768 GB/socket
– Cascade Lake processors
▪
L processors: 4.5 TB/socket
▪
M processors: 2 TB/socket
▪
Other processors: 1 TB/socket
● The total memory capacity is the sum of the capacity of all DDR4 memory
modules.
● The total memory capacity cannot exceed the maximum memory capacity
supported by the CPUs.
● The total memory capacity refers to the capacity when DDR4 memory
modules are fully
congured. For details about the memory capacity when
DCPMMs are used together with DDR4 memory modules, see 5.4.2.3
Memory Compatibility.
● Use the Computing Product Compatibility Checker to determine the
capacity type of a single DIMM.
● The maximum number of DIMMs supported by a server varies depending on
the CPU type, memory type, rank quantity, and operating voltage.
Each memory channel supports a maximum of 8 ranks. The number of DIMMs
supported by each channel varies depending on the number of ranks supported by
each channel:
Number of DIMMs supported by each channel ≤ Number of ranks supported by each
memory channel/Number of ranks supported by each DIMM
