The test interval entries determine how much of the target memory is tested. The
default in all cases is 4 cache line per 16 MB (fastest mode). In the alternate
mode, each cache line is tested.
The ‘Defective DIMM Mapout’ is used to turn off mapout completely. If this is
disabled, defective DIMMs will be detected, but not mapped out on the next
BOOT. This may lead to data corruption and loss and HP DOES NOT
RECOMMEND that this feature be disabled in the BIOS.
The ‘Clear Bad Memory Row Info’ is used to clear the history, and retest all
memory. This option is used when defective memory has been replaced, and the
user wishes to place it in service again. This option automatically goes back to
‘disabled’ after the next boot.
