Memory channel DIMM connectors
Channel 0 1, 2, 3, 10, 11, 12

Channel 2 7, 8, 9, 16, 17, 18
The following illustration shows the memory connector layout that is associated with
each microprocessor. For example, DIMM connectors 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17,
and 18 (DIMM connectors are shown underneath the boxes) are associated with
microprocessor 2 (CPU2) and DIMM connectors 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 are
associated with microprocessor 1 (CPU1). The numbers within the boxes indicate
the installation sequence of the DIMM pairs. For example, the first DIMM pair
(indicated within the boxes by ones (1)) should be installed in DIMM connectors 1
and 2, which is associated with microprocessor 1 (CPU1).
Note: You can install DIMMs for microprocessor 2 as soon as you install
microprocessor 2; you do not have to wait until all of the DIMM slots for
microprocessor 1 are filled.
The following table shows the installation sequence for installing DIMMs in
memory-mirroring mode:

DIMM connector
First pair of DIMMs 1 3, 6
Second pair of DIMMs 1 2, 5
Third pair of DIMMs 1 1, 4
Fourth pair of DIMMs 2 12, 15
Fifth pair of DIMMs 2 11, 14
Sixth pair of DIMMs 2 10, 13
Note: DIMM connectors 7, 8, 9, 16, 17, and 18 are not used in memory-mirroring mode.
Online-spare memory
The memory online-spare feature disables the failed memory from the system
configuration and activates an online-spare DIMM to replace the failed active DIMM.
You can enable either online-spare memory or memory mirroring in the Setup utility
