2. Make sure that the USB configuration options are set correctly in system setup.
Restart the server and press the key according to the on-screen instructions to display the LXPM system
setup interface. (For more information, see the “Startup” section in the LXPM documentation compatible
with your server at https://pubs.lenovo.com/lxpm-overview/.) Then, click System Settings ➙ Devices
and I/O Ports ➙ USB Configuration.
3. If you are using a USB hub, disconnect the USB device from the hub and connect it directly to the
server.

Displayed system memory is less than installed physical memory
Complete the following procedure to solve the problem.
Note: Each time you install or remove a memory module, you must disconnect the server from the power
source; then, wait 10 seconds before restarting the server.
1. Make sure that:
• No error LEDs are lit on the operator information panel.
• No memory module error LEDs are lit on the system board.
• Memory mirrored channel does not account for the discrepancy.
• The memory modules are seated correctly.
• You have installed the correct type of memory module (see “PMEM rules” in Setup Guide for
requirements).
• After changing or replacing a memory module, memory configuration is updated accordingly in the
Setup Utility.
• All banks of memory are enabled. The server might have automatically disabled a memory bank when
it detected a problem, or a memory bank might have been manually disabled.
• There is no memory mismatch when the server is at the minimum memory configuration.
• When PMEMs are installed:
a. If the memory is set in App Direct Mode, all the saved data have been backed up, and created
namespaces are deleted before any PMEM is replaced or added.
b. Refer to “PMEM rules” in Setup Guide and see if the displayed memory fits the mode description.
c. If PMEMs are recently set in Memory Mode, turn it back to App Direct Mode and examine if there
is namespace that has not been deleted.
