6.4.6 Defective Memory Disconnection Function
This server is equipped with the defective memory (RAM module) disconnection function.
This function disconnects the memory bank (two DIMMs) judged to be defective (causing an error)
during Power On Self Test (POST) and start the server. When POST is executed, if the memory capacity
is discovered to be smaller than the capacity of the memory installed, a memory module may be
defective.
You can check the slot where the defective memory module is located during POST or from the system
event log.
For how to check the system event log, refer to "8.3 System Event Log" ( p.229).
If a defective memory module is discovered, replace it, and then restart the server.
How to replace the defective memory module
1
Refer to the system event log, and check the slot location of the defective
memory module.
"8.3 System Event Log" (p.229)
2
Replace the defective memory module with a new memory module according
to "6.4.4 How to Install or Remove Memory Modules" ( p.150).
3
Start the BIOS Setup Utility
"7.2.1 Starting and Exiting the BIOS Setup Utility" (p.183)
4
Select the [Memory Status] in the [Server] menu and check that the item
corresponding to the replaced memory module is set to "Enabled".
If it is set to "Failed", change the memory status to "Enabled".
"7.2.15 Memory Status Submenu" (p.205)
When the item corresponding to the replaced memory module is not set to "Enabled", the
server will start with the new memory module still marked as defective and always discon-
nected. By changing the setting to "Enabled", the new memory module is properly recognized
and it can be used at the next start of the server.

Cancel the defective memory error status.
For the operation procedure, refer to the "Server View User's Guide".
