DIMM population guidelines

The following rules apply when adding DIMMs to the memory boards.

•

DIMMs must be populated beginning with memory board A,
DIMM slots A1 and A2.

•

All DIMM slots must be populated with either a DIMM or a DIMM
thermal blank.

Important: DIMM thermal blanks must be installed to empty
DIMM slots to ensure proper system thermal performance.

•

FBDIMMs should be identical in terms of timing, technology, and
size.

Note: For additional memory configuration, see “Appendix B:
Memory configuration” section on page 163.
