Memory option

You can expand server memory by installing PC2-6400 Registered DDR2 SDRAM DIMMs or 8-GB PC2-

5300 SDRAM DIMMs. The server supports up to 256 GB of memory using 32 8-GB DIMMs (eight DIMMs
per processor).

NOTE:

The Advanced Memory Protection option in RBSU provides additional memory

protection beyond Advanced ECC. By default, the server is set to Advanced ECC Support. For
more information, refer to "HP ROM-Based Setup Utility (on page

63

)."

For DIMM slot locations and bank assignments, see "DIMM slots (on page

11

)."

Advanced ECC memory configuration

Advanced ECC memory is the default memory protection mode for this server blade. Standard ECC can

correct single-bit memory errors and detect multi-bit memory errors. When multi-bit errors are detected

using Standard ECC, the error is signaled to the server blade and causes the server blade to halt.
Advanced ECC protects the server blade against some multi-bit memory errors. Advanced ECC can

correct both single-bit memory errors and 4-bit memory errors if all failed bits are on the same DRAM

device on the DIMM.
