Each processor, P0 and P1, has twelve DIMM slots (D0-D11), six on each processor
side. Each DIMM slot supports a single memory channel, for total of twelve DDR5
memory channels per processor (0-11).

Note:
In single-processor systems, the DIMM slots associated with processor 1
(P1) are nonfunctional and should not be populated with DIMMs.
DIMM Population Scenarios
There are two scenarios in which you are required to populate DIMMs:
• A DIMM fails and needs to be replaced.
