PCIe Slot Configuration Guidelines
Use the guidelines in
TABLE: Supported CMP/Memory Module Configurations on
to spread the load evenly across CMP/memory modules. If a slot is already
populated with a device, install a new device in the next available slot, in the order
indicated.
External I/O Expansion Unit PCIe Link cards must be placed in a PCIe slot with a
CMP/memory module pair present as follows:
■
PCIe Slots 0 and 1 require CMP/Memory pair 0.
■
PCIe Slots 4 and 5 require CMP/Memory pair 1.
■
PCIe Slots 2 and 3 require CMP/Memory pair 2.
■
PCIe Slots 6 and 7 require CMP/Memory pair 3.
