5.1.4.1.4 DIMM Installation Rules
This section applies to a server fully configured with DDR4 memory modules. If PMem modules are
used together, see 5.1.4.2.4 DIMM Installation Rules.
Observe the following when configuring DDR4 memory modules:
⚫
Install memory modules only when corresponding processors are installed.
⚫
Do not install LRDIMMs and RDIMMs in the same server.
⚫
Install filler memory modules in vacant slots.
Observe the following when configuring DDR4 memory modules in specific operating mode:
⚫
Rank sparing mode
− Comply with the general installation guidelines.
− At least two ranks must be configured for each channel.
− A maximum of two standby ranks can be configured for each channel.
− The capacity of a standby rank must be greater than or equal to that of other ranks
in the same channel.
⚫
Memory mirroring mode
− Comply with the general installation guidelines.
