Table 4-13 shows the DIMM population order for memory-mirroring mode without the

mezzanine installed.

Table 4-13 DIMM population order: Memory-mirroring mode without the mezzanine installed

Table 4-14 lists the DIMM installation sequence for memory-mirroring mode when two

processors and a memory tray are installed in the server.
