•
When one processor is installed, install DIMMs in sequential alphabetic order: A, B, C, D, E, F, and so
forth.
•
When two processors are installed, install the DIMMs in sequential alphabetic order balanced between
the two processors: P1-A, P2-A, P1-B, P2-B, P1-C, P2-C, and so forth.
•
For DIMM spare replacement, install the DIMMs per slot number as instructed by the system software.
For detailed memory configuration rules and guidelines, use the Online DDR3 Memory Configuration Tool
on the HP website
Advanced ECC population guidelines
For Advanced ECC mode configurations, observe the following guidelines:
•
Observe the general DIMM slot population guidelines.
•
DIMMs may be installed individually.
Population order
For memory configurations with a single processor or multiple processors, populate the DIMM slots
sequentially in alphabetical order (A through H).
For Advanced ECC mode configurations with multiple processors, populate the DIMM slots sequentially in
alphabetical order (P1-A, P2-A, P1-B, P2-B and so forth)
After installing the DIMMs, use RBSU to configure the memory protection modes.
Mirrored Memory population guidelines
For Mirrored Memory mode configurations, observe the following guidelines:
•
Observe the general DIMM slot population guidelines.
•
Always install DIMMs in channels 1 and 2 for each installed processor.
•
Do not install DIMMs in channel 3 for any processor.
•
DIMMs installed on channel 1 and channel 2 of an installed processor must be identical.
•
In multi-processor configurations, each processor must have a valid Mirrored Memory configuration.
•
In multi-processor configurations, each processor may have a different valid Mirrored Memory
configuration.
Single-processor Mirrored Memory population order
For Mirrored Memory mode configurations with a single processor, populate the DIMM slots in the following
order:
•
RDIMM
o
First: A and B
o
Next: D and E
o
Last: G and H
o
Do not populate slots C, F, or I.
