These menus allow the user to change the system memory configuration. If it is necessary to take one
of the memory DIMMs offline, this menu allows you to deconfigure a DIMM, and then reconfigure the
DIMM at a later time.
When this option is selected, a menu displays. The following is an example of this menu:
MEMORY CONFIGURATION/DECONFIGURATION MENU
77. Enable/Disable Memory Repeat Gard: Currently Enabled
78. Runtime Recoverable Error Repeat Gard: Currently Disabled
1. Memory card
98. Return to Previous Menu
After you select the memory card option by entering 1, a menu displays, allowing the selection of a
memory DIMM. The following is an example of this menu.
MEMORY CONFIGURATION/DECONFIGURATION MENU
1. 3.16(00) Configured by system 2. 3.17(00) Configured by system
3. 3.18(00) Configured by system 4. 3.19(00) Configured by system
5. 4.24(00) Configured by system 6. 4.25(00) Configured by system
7. 4.26(00) Configured by system 8. 4.27(00) Configured by system
98. Return to Previous Menu
Note: This table is built from vital product data collected during the last boot sequence. The first time
the system is powered on, or after the system’s nonvolatile RAM (NVRAM) has been erased, this
table may be empty. The table is rebuilt during the next boot into the operating system.
The fields in the previous table represent the following:
Column 1
1. Menu selection index/DIMM number
Column 2
xx.xx : DIMM address used by service processor
Column 3
(00) Error status
The error status of the each memory DIMM is indicated by AB, where B indicates the number of errors
and A indicates the type of error according to the following table:
1. Bring-up failure
2. Run-time non-recoverable failure
3. Run-time recoverable failure
4. Group integrity failure
5. Non-repeat-gardable error. The resource may be reconfigured on the next boot.
An error status of 00 (for example, 3.16(00) ) indicates that the memory DIMM has not had any errors
logged against it by the service processor.
