Enabling or disabling Extended Memory Test
Use the
Extended Memory Test
option to configure whether the system validates memory during the
memory initialization process. When enabled, and uncorrectable memory errors are detected, the
memory is mapped out, and the failed DIMMs are logged to the IML.
NOTE:
Enabling this option might significantly increase boot time.

Memory Fast Training
Use this option to configure memory training on server reboots. When enabled, the platform uses the
previously saved memory training parameters determined from the last cold boot of the server, which
improves server boot time. Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends that you leave Memory Fast Training
enabled.
Enabling or disabling Memory Fast Training
Use the
Memory Fast Training
option to configure memory training on server reboots. When enabled,
the platform uses the previously saved memory training parameters determined from the last cold boot of
the server, which improves server boot time. When installed on your server, and this setting is enabled,
NVDIMM-N Memory contents are left undisturbed during warm resets. If Memory Fast Training is
disabled, each warm reset is upgraded to a cold reset and results in an NVDIMM-N backup and restore.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends that you leave Memory Fast Training enabled.
