Memory configurations

To optimize workstation blade availability, the workstation blade supports the following AMP modes:

Advanced ECC—provides the greatest memory capacity for a given DIMM size, while providing up to
4-bit error correction. This mode is the default option for this workstation blade.

Mirrored Memory—provides maximum protection against failed DIMMs. Uncorrectable errors in one
channel are corrected by the mirror channel.

Lockstep—provides enhanced protection while making all installed memory available to the operating
system. The workstation blade can continue to function if a single- or multi-bit memory failure within a

single DRAM device occurs.
