• R715 not Optimal Memory Configuration

  Hello

  We have a bunch (35 ish) R715s all configured exactly the same. Each with two CPUs of AMD and the factory had modules memory 8 x 2 GB (1Rx8 PC3L-10600E-09-10-D0) inside.

  Recently, I wanted to test the addition of extra ram. So, I bought 8 x 4 GB ram (2Rx4 PC3-10600R-9-10-E1). It is based on manuals Dells and determinative webpage about what would accept this server. When you try to install the ram here are the scenarios and what happens:

  (1) add 8 new modules for the empty slots of 'Black '. The machine does not start just buzzing.

  (2) take the 8 old modules out of the 'White' slots and REPLACE them with 8 new modules. It starts, but says "WARNING: the installed memory configuration is not optimal.  However, the bios reads 32 GB of ram.

  (3) take it down to only 4 modules (new modules). Set as described in 'A1, B1, A2, B2' slot machines. Same message "not optimal" appears and reads the 16 GB of ram.

  I also made sure that I am under the latest firmware available. Can you please explain what I'm doing wrong and my best option for ram I have?

  Linxxs,

  Sorry you are having memory problems with the server. The first question that you see, which once try to mix modules DIMM, is that new modules DIMM was purchased are Rdimms. The original DIMM, you have on the server are UDIMM, which Rdimms and UDIMM cannot be mixed in the same system. That's why you see the post No..

  Now, when you install only the 4 GB Rdimms, the reason for the error "Not optimal" is that with the R715 with dual rank Rdimms, best would be 1333 mhz DIMM, where the rdimms 4 GB you ordered are at 1066 mhz. Now, these bars will work in the server, but is not optimal, where the error.

  Just a note side when examining options, with unique access, you are limited to only 2 GB DIMMS, in order to extend it to allow only allows you to add several DIMMs of 2 GB. With double access, you can run as is, but will be the error, or you can swap in DIMM 1333 mhz modules.

  Just a few things to consider.

  Let me know if it helps.

• PE R710 optimal memory configuration

  Hi, we need to upgrade memory on our R710s. trying to find recommendations for configuring optimal memory for gen 11 servers without losing the memory speed. Came across a doc 2009, saying that we can not go beyond 1 DIMM per channel to 2 RDIMMs x without dropping speed to 1066. I'm sure that, after the updates to the BIOS, than the limit went from 1 to 2 DIMMs per channel. Can anyone confirm or share a most recent doc? Thanks in advance.

  Hello.

  The speed of the memory of each channel depends on the memory configuration. Yes, with the BIOS update as of May 15, 2009; Memory only rank and dual-rank modules supports up to 1333 MHz speed. See General information below.

  • Modules memory single or double-row:
    • One module of memory per channel supports up to 1333 MHz.
    • Two modules of memory per channel supports up to 1066 MHz. (review of BIOS on May 15, 2009, support was added for two modules per channel at 1333 MHz speed.)
    • Three modules of memory through are limited to 800 MHz, regardless of the speed of add-on memory.
  • For modules of memory Quad-rows:
    • One module of memory per channel supports up to 1066 Mhz.
    • Two modules of memory through are limited to 800 MHz, regardless of the speed of add-on memory.

  If the memory modules with different speeds are installed, they won't work at the speed of the modules slower memory.

• PowerEdge R710 E2011 memory configuration error

  I have a question that has me running around in circles.

  I'm the filling of a PE R710 server with 1 GB 1Rx8 PC3 - 10600E DIMMs, which works very well when the first two DIMM slots are filled for each channel. However, when I fill the third slot DIMM in any channel, I get the E2011 Memory Configuration error.

  I've already updated the system board BIOS to version 6.4 and still get this error.

  Can anyone out there tell me how to fix this?

  Thank you!

  Pripley,

  Based on what you say, it seems that the question you are running in is due to the DIMM you are populating the server, that sound as if they are UDIMM. With UDIMM, as well as Quad DIMMS, you are limited to 2 DIMMs per channel. At the bottom of page 129 of the present manual, you see this limitation.

  Let me know if that answers your question about the memory problem, or if you have Rdimms and see this.

• Dell PowerEdge R720 stuck on memory configuration

  Hello, maybe someone can help. I have a Dell R720 which had to restart Windows updates, once its been a bit problematic in that it sits on the configuration of the memory for about 20 minutes. Last night it never comes not beyond that.

  I read on a forum that it could be a driver of KVM switch problem?

  I also read that you can press ESC after publication and which will bypass this, problem, the server is a domain controller and nobody is there.

  Someone knows something similar?

  Peter

  Hello

  Is anyway to bypass the memory configuration?

  I reinstalled the processors and processors, but its still a problem.

  Any suggestions please?

• PowerEdge T610 processor + memory issue

  PowerEdge T610 Processor + memory issue

  1. is it possible to insert two different processors in the CPU 1 and CPU 2 Socket?
  IM my case to 1 Socket CPU: Intel Xeon [email protected] and 2-socket CPU: Intel Xeon [email protected]

  2. each processor has its own memory controller.
  Is it possible to insert different DDR3 DIMM for each processor?
  In my case in CPU 1 - DIMM location: 3 x 16 GB in A1, A2, A3 and CPU 2 DIMM Slot bars: 3 x 4 GB in B1, B2, B3?

  N ° processors must be identical, and in page/Configuration memory must be the same for both.

  Hello

  According to the Toshiba product page (you can find it using google ;)), the laptop was equipped with 2 bars of memory; a 2 GB and the second 1 GB module.
  If the laptop has 2 modules installed and supports the 3 GB of RAM (2 GB + 1 GB)

  I think that now everything is much clearer ;)

• C240 M3 blocked "memory configuration and test..."

  Hello

  This server was returned by just us to Cisco, which had lent because it was new.   We try to return to service, but have encountered the following problem.

  At first startup, the server receives as much as 'memory configuration and test..' message.  Just this message, it shows no progress in actually memory test.   After a few seconds it turns off, and then turns upward again, repeat that a few times before sit down you with the "memory configuration and test.." message at the top of the screen, but now also showing the address IP of MMIC inside.   The four led above the power button shows green fixed and switch ID unit than the blue LED power buttons, as they should.

  I can get to the MMIC login screen, but the password to the default password so can't get farther in this direction until we discover the new username/password details.  Unless anyone knows how to reset the default MMIC.

  I tried the following recovery steps...

  (1) if we set the J2065 ' Clear CMOS' jumper, the server doesn't work.  It powers up to the day before, but does not respond when you press the power button.

  (2) to the "recovery" of the J2068 rider don't seem to have any effect, the server does not read the USB key recovery file.

  Any ideas?

  Thank you

  Tony S

  I remove the CMOS battery for a while, put back in place, try again and if still nothing... I would look for a motherboard replacement.

• County of total memory configured in each cluster

  Hello

  I'm pretty new still, Powershell and PowerCLI, but I'm learning.

  I'm playing with, trying to extract data from my vCenter and its going well so far, with the help of this site and a lot of google'ing

  But now im running into a bit of a problem, I want to count the total amount of memory configured in each cluster. And what I soleved with this code:

  $confimem = get-Cluster |

  Select Name,

  @{N = 'Total configured memory GB'; E = {}

  [Math]: round (($_ |)) Get - VM | %{$_. MemoryMB} |

  Measure-object-sum | (Select sum - ExpandProperty) / 1 Ko, 1).

  }}

  And it gives a good result. But now I'm thinking it's account also all VM in the cluster, which is fed to the wide models and all that. I want to do is to include only the VM that is powered.

  And I was thinking something like: Where-Object {$_.} PowerState - eq 'Receiving'}, but I'm not experienced enough to know how to put this together.

  Any body help me solve this problem? I would be very happy

  Nice day.

  $confimem = get-Cluster | Select Name, @{N = 'Total configured memory GB'; E = {[Math]: round (($_ |))} Get - VM | Where-Object {$_.} PowerState - eq "Receptor"} | %{$_. MemoryMB} | Measure-object-sum | {{(Select-ExpandProperty Sum)/1 Ko, 1)}}

• Server memory configuration

  Hi guys,.

  Ask a question about the configuration of memory on hp gen8 servers.

  Does anyone no matter what the tests with memory configurations show various IE with full bus speed 1333 mhz 1900 mhz bus speed vs.

  I would like to see some comparisons on this topic, but can not find.

  We are running with (only) 128 GB for 1 900 mhz speed, I want to double but then let it go up to 1333 mhz and I don't want to cripple our memory applications running in the cluster.

  Anyone know where I can read on this?

  Cheers!

  Stefan

  find a post pointing me in the right direction here on the forum after some research.

• Memory configured

  Hello

  A virtual machine allows more memory than its configured memory?

  For example:

  ESXi host is to have 10 GB of memory. 2 VM are hosted on this. Dv01 & VM02 configured memory is 2 GB.

  (1) if the Application is running inside the virtual machine requires more memory, then Will VM would be able to use memory configured 2 GB of memory conc as host is to have additional 6 GB of memory?

  Hello

  When you say 'configured memory', I guess you are trying to say that it is the memory that you have assigned as you created the virtual machine.

  In this case, not your virtual machine cannot be used more than it is configured with. you increase the memory.

  Please see below the link and image captured from pubs of vmware.

  Hope that helps.

  

• Supported Memory Configurations (PC3L) low voltage for PowerEdge T410

  I note that, when using the first DIMM per channel (i.e. 3 of the 4 memory by processor slots) with PC3L memory, it works at 1.35v, as it should.

  When I add a strip of MEMORY on the fourth slot, memory running at 1.5V, thus neglecting the advantage of low voltage.

  T410 technical guide says "When they operate at low voltage, frequency and population additional restrictions can take effect."  Fills all the memory locations, considered a restriction of the population in this context?

  Looks like a fairly common thing to do (fill in all of the memory locations)...

  Thank you

  Fganter.

  Unfortunately fill three memory modules per channel is not supported 1.35 V. systems with 1.35 V memory will be also exploited the memory modules to 1.5 V if one of the following conditions exist:

  • Intel Xeon processors 5500
  • two modules of 1333 MHz DIMM per channel
  • a mixture of both modules of memory standard and low voltage

  Hope this helps to clarify the situation.

• Aurora-R5, Memory Configurations

  Hello guys,.

  Is it possible to make the configuration of memory as one (2 x 8) 2400 MHz + (2 x 16) 2400 MHz (in 48 GB total)? I checked Aurora R5 installation and configuration, it is said that supported 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB, 32 GB and 64 GB Configurations.

   

  I was curious that the configuration should always be the same as 2 x 16 or 4 x 8 or 4 x 16 or 2 x 8... ???

  Thank you
  

  Im sure at 2400 mhz the Aurora is supported up to 16 GB.

• PowerEdge SC1425 - upgrade Memoria RAM [GRO]
