In multi-processor configurations, each processor may have a different valid Lockstep Memory
configuration.
Multi-processor Lockstep population order
For Lockstep memory mode configurations with multiple processors, populate DIMM slots A and B for
each processor. Do not populate slot C.
After installing the DIMMs, use RBSU to configure the system for Lockstep memory support ("Configuring
lockstep memory" on page 40).
