Mode-specific guidelines
The configurations allowed depend on the memory mode selected in the System BIOS.
Memory Operating
Mode
Description
Optimizer Mode
The Optimizer Mode if enabled, the DRAM controllers
operate independently in the 64-bit mode and
provide optimized memory performance.
Mirror Mode
The Mirror Mode if enabled, the system maintains two
identical copies of data in memory, and the total
available system memory is one half of the total
installed physical memory. Half of the installed
memory is used to mirror the active memory
modules. This feature provides maximum reliability
and enables the system to continue running even
during a catastrophic memory failure by switching
over to the mirrored copy.
The installation guidelines to enable Mirror Mode
require that the memory modules be identical in size,
speed, and technology, and they must be populated
in sets of 6 per processor.
