Memory settings
Select this choice to manually disable or enable a dual inline memory module
(DIMM) slot.
If you replaced a defective DIMM, you must manually enable the DIMM slot in
the Configuration/Setup Utility program. In this case, the system does not
automatically access the Configuration/Setup Utility program to enable the
DIMM slot.
If a memory error is detected during POST or memory configuration, the server
can automatically disable the failing DIMM slot and continue operating with
reduced memory capacity. If this occurs, you must manually enable the DIMM
slot after the problem is corrected.
You can diagnose to just one DIMM.
To manually enable a DIMM slot:
1. Select
Memory Settings
from the Advanced Setup menu.
2. Use the Up Arrow (
↑
) or Down Arrow (
↓
) key to highlight the DIMM slot that
you want to enable.
3. Use the Left Arrow (
←
) or Right Arrow (
→
) key to select
Enable
.
For additional information on DIMMs, see “Installing DIMMs and memory boards”
on page 52.
Processor settings
Select this choice to manually enable a processor slot.
If you replaced a defective processor, you must manually enable the processor
slot in the Configuration/Setup Utility program. In this case, the system does
not automatically access the Configuration/Setup Utility program to enable the
processor slot.
If a processor error is detected during POST or runtime, the server can
automatically disable the failing processors and restart the system to
reconfigure without the defective processors. If this occurs, you must manually
enable the processor slots after the problem is corrected.
To manually enable a processor slot:
1. Select
Processor Settings
from the Advanced Setup menu.
2. Use the Up Arrow (
↑
) or Down Arrow (
↓
) key to highlight the processor slot that
you want to enable.
3. Use the Left Arrow (

) key to select
Enable
.
For additional information on processors, see “Installing a processor” on page 56.
