Memory Configuration/Deconfiguration Menu
These menus allow the user to change the system memory configuration. If it is
necessary to take one of the memory DIMMs offline, this menu allows you to deconfigure
a DIMM, and then reconfigure the DIMM at a later time.
When this option is selected, a menu displays, showing the memory riser cards in the
system. Type the number of the memory riser card on which the DIMM is plugged that
you want to configure or deconfigure. An example of this menu is shown below:

Note: If there is only one processor in the system, system memory may reside on that
processor assembly. In that case, you are given the option to select the processor
card from the list. After you select a processor card or a memory riser card, a menu
allowing the selection of a memory DIMM is displayed. An example of this menu is
shown below:

Note: This table is built from vital product data collected during the last boot sequence.
The first time the system is powered up, or after the system’s non–volatile ram
(NVRAM) has been erased, this table may be empty. The table is rebuilt during the
next boot into AIX.
The system DIMMs are presented by group. If a memory riser card is present, quad A is
shown first, followed by quads B, C, and D, if present. If memory is on a processor card,
pair A is shown first, followed by pairs B, C, and D, if present. The menu selection
index/DIMM number and the DIMM address correspond to the numbers shown in the
diagrams “Memory Riser Card 1 Memory DIMM Locations for Service Processor Menus”
on page 3-15, “Memory Riser Card 2 Memory DIMM Locations for Service Processor
Menus” on page 3-16 and “Processor Card Memory DIMM Locations for Service
Processor Menus” on page 3-16.
The fields in the previous table represent the following:
Column 1 (1.) Menu selection index/DIMM number
Column 2 (11.xx) Riser card 1, (10.xx) Riser card 2, (3.xx) Memory on processor card
Column 0 (00) Error status
