Huawei FusionServer Pro 5288 V5 - Memory Installation Guidelines

● A memory channel supports more than eight ranks for LRDIMMs.
NO TE
A quad-rank LRDIMM generates the same electrical load as a single-rank RDIMM on a
memory bus.

● a: The maximum number of DDR4 DIMMs is based on dual-processor
conguration. The value is halved for a server with only one processor.
● b: The maximum DDR4 memory capacity varies depending on the processor
type. The value listed in this table is based on the assumption that DIMMs
are fully congured.
● c: DPC (DIMM per channel) indicates the number of DIMMs per channel.
● d: If the Cascade Lake processor is used, the maximum operating speed of a
DIMM can reach 2933 MT/s. If the Skylake processor is used, the maximum
operating speed of a DIMM can reach 2666 MT/s only.
5.4.1.4 Memory Installation Guidelines
NO TE
This section applies to a server fully congured with DDR4 memory modules. If DCPMMs
are used together, see 5.4.2.4 Memory Installation Guidelines.
● Observe the following when conguring 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
conguring DDR4 memory modules in specic
operating mode:
– Memory sparing mode
