Active
Memory
Active
™
Memory
is
an
IBM
feature
that
improves
the
reliability
of
memory
through
memory
mirroring
and
the
Memory
ProteXion
™
feature.
Memory
ProteXion
If
a
detected
error
is
recoverable,
the
Memory
ProteXion
feature
corrects
the
error
and
rewrites
the
data
to
another
memory
location
on
the
same
DIMM.
If
there
are
not
sufficient
undamaged
memory
locations
that
the
data
can
be
rewritten
to,
the
error
is
unrecoverable.
Other
conditions
can
also
cause
unrecoverable
errors.
If
a
detected
error
is
unrecoverable,
light
path
diagnostics
LEDs
are
lit
to
indicate
the
failing
DIMM.
You
do
not
have
to
enable
memory
mirroring
to
use
the
Memory
ProteXion
feature.
