Installing or Replacing Server Components
Step 2
Select the Advanced tab.
Step 3
Select Low Voltage DDR Mode .
Step 4
In the pop-up window, select either Power Saving or Performance Mode :
•
Power Saving Mode–Prioritizes low-voltage memory operation.
•
Performance Mode–Prioritizes performance memory operation. If you mix low-voltage DIMMs
with standard DIMMs, the system defaults to this setting.
Step 5
Press F10 to save your changes and exit the setup utility.
Memory Mirroring
When memory mirroring is enabled, the memory subsystem simultaneously writes identical data to two
channels. If a memory read from one of the channels returns incorrect data due to an uncorrectable
memory error, the system automatically retrieves the data from the other channel. A transient or soft
error in one channel does not affect the mirrored data, and operation continues unless there is a
simultaneous error in exactly the same location on a DIMM and its mirrored DIMM. Memory mirroring
reduces the amount of memory available to the operating system by 50% because only one of the two
populated channels provides data.
Note
You must choose to enable memory mirroring in the server BIOS setup utility, under
Advanced > Memory Configuration > Mirroring.
If you choose to enable memory mirroring, populate the DIMM slots in the order shown in Table 3-5 .
DIMM Replacement Procedure
This section includes the following topics:
•
Identifying a Faulty DIMM, page 3-27
•
Replacing DIMMs, page 3-28
Identifying a Faulty DIMM
Each DIMM slot has a corresponding DIMM fault LED. See Figure 3-3 for the locations of these LEDs.
