Cisco UCS B230 M2 Blade Server

CONFIGURING the SERVER
Caveats
■ The B230 M2 server needs at least one DIMM pair installed for each CPU.
■ One DIMM pair on a CPU can be different from other pairs; however, DIMMs sold as kits are
matched pairs and must remain together when installed in a particular pair of same-colored
(blue, white, yellow, or black) pairs of slots.
■ The DIMMs installed in slots for an absent CPU are not recognized.
■ Memory DIMMs should be installed evenly across the installed CPUs. Though this is not a
requirement, if not done it results in performance degradation. The preferred DIMM
installations are highlighted in green in the tables.
