For a DIMM to operate at 2933 MHz, make sure the following conditions are met:
•
Use Cascade Lake processors that support 2933 MHz data rate.
•
Use DIMMs with a maximum of 2933 MHz data rate.
•
Install a maximum of one DIMM per channel.
The supported DIMMs vary by processor model, as shown in
.

Guidelines for installing only DRAM DIMMs
When you install only DRAM DIMMs, follow these restrictions and guidelines:
•
Make sure all DRAM DIMMs installed on the server have the same specifications.
•
Make sure the corresponding processor is present before powering on the server.
•
For the memory mode setting to operate correctly, make sure the following installation
requirements are met when you install DRAM DIMMs for a processor:
Memory mode
DIMM slot population rules
Independent
•
If only one processor is present, see
•
If two processors are present, see
.
Mirror
Partial Mirror
•
A minimum of two DIMMs for a processor.
•
This mode does not support DIMM population schemes that are
not recommended in
.
•
DIMM installation scheme:
{
If only processor 1 is present, see
{
If two processors are present, see
Memory Rank Sparing
•
A minimum of 2 ranks per channel.
•
DIMM installation scheme:
{
If only one processor is present, see
.
{
If two processors are present, see
NOTE:
If the DIMM configuration does not meet the requirements for the configured memory mode, the
system uses the default memory mode (Independent mode). For more information about
memory modes, see the BIOS user guide for the server.
