60 Intel® Server Compute Blade SBXD132 Installation and User’s Guide
To maintain optimum system operation in the event of a memory failure, you can
set the Memory Configuration for memory Mirroring or Sparing . Memory
mirroring stores duplicate data on two DIMMs to prevent data loss if a DIMM
fails. Memory sparing removes the failed memory from the system configuration
and activates a Hot Spare Memory pair of DIMMs to replace the failed memory
pair of DIMMs. Before you can enable the memory mirroring or sparing, at least
two pairs of DIMMs must be installed in the blade server that adhere to the
special requirements described in “Installing Memory Modules” on page 22 . Set
the Memory Configuration to Flat to disable memory mirroring and sparing.
Note: Memory mirroring is available only when an optional Intel® Blade Server
Memory and I/O Expansion Blade is installed on the blade server.
— CPU Options
Select this choice to disable the microprocessor cache or to set the microprocessor
cache to use the write-back or the write-through method. Write-back caching
generally provides better system performance.
You can also select this choice to enable or disable hyper-threading and adjust
microprocessor performance settings. If enabled, hyper-threading will only be
active if it is supported by your operating system.

Select this choice to view and set interrupts for PCI devices and to configure the
master-latency-timer value for the blade server.
— Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) Settings
Select this choice to enable or disable the Reboot on System NMI option on the
menu. If you enable this option, the blade server will automatically restart 60
seconds after the service processor issues a nonmaskable interrupt (NMI) to the
blade server. You can also select this choice to enable or disable and set the time-
outs for the POST and OS loader watchdog timers and view BMC version
information.
