•
Dual processor: Populate the slots in round robin sequence starting with processor 1.
NOTE:
Processor 1 and processor 2 population should match.
•
Quad processor: Populate the slots in round robin sequence starting with processor 1.
NOTE:
Processor 1, processor 2, processor 3, and processor 4 population should match.

Optimized (Independent
channel) population order
A{1}, B{1},
A{2}, B{2},
A{3}, B{3},
A{4}, B{4},
A{5}, B{5},
A{6}, B{6}
Odd number of DIMM population per processor is
allowed.
NOTE:
Odd number of DIMMs will result in
unbalanced memory configurations, which
in turn will result in performance loss. It is
recommended to populate all memory
channels identically with identical DIMMs
for best performance.
NOTE:
For best performance, 6 DIMMs or
12 DIMMs per processor is recommended.
Optimizer population order is not traditional for 8
and 16 DIMMs installations for dual processor.
•
For 8 DIMMs: A1, A2, A4, A5, B1, B2, B4, B5
•
For 16 DIMMs:
A1, A2, A4, A5, A7, A8, A10, A11
B1, B2, B4, B5, B7, B8, B10, B11
Mirroring population order
A{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6},
B{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6},
A{7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12},
B{7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12}
Mirroring is supported with 6 or 12 DIMMs per
processor.
Single rank sparing
population order
A{1}, B{1},
A{2}, B{2},
A{3}, B{3},
A{4}, B{4},
A{5}, B{5},
A{6}, B{6}
•
DIMMs must be populated in the order
specified.
•
Requires two ranks or more per channel.
Multi rank sparing
population order
A{1}, B{1},
A{2}, B{2},
A{3}, B{3},
A{4}, B{4},
A{5}, B{5},
A{6}, B{6}
•
DIMMs must be populated in the order
specified.
•
Requires three ranks or more per channel.
Fault resilient population
order
A{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6},
B{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6},
A{7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12},
B{7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12}
Supported with 6 or 12 DIMMs per processor.
Quad processor
(Starting with
processor 1, and
processor 1, processor
2, processor 3, and
processor 4 population
should match)
Optimized population order
(Independent channel)
A{1}, B{1}, C{1}, D{1},
A{2}, B{2}, C{2}, D{2},
A{3}, B{3} C{3}, D{3},
A{4}, B{4} C{4}, D{4}
Odd number of DIMM population per processor is
allowed.
NOTE:
Odd number of DIMMs will result in
unbalanced memory configurations, which
in turn will result in performance loss. It is
recommended to populate all memory
channels identically with identical DIMMs
for best performance.
