CONFIGURING the SERVER Approved Configurations (1) 1-CPU configurations: ■ Select any one CPU listed in Table 3. (2) 2-CPU Configurations: ■ Select two identical CPUs from any one of the rows of Table 3 on page 13. Caveats ■ You can select either one processor or two identical processors. ■ For optimal performance, select DIMMs with the highest clock speed for a given processor (see Table 3 on page 13).
CONFIGURING the SERVER STEP 3 SELECT MEMORY The standard memory features are: ■ ■ Figure 4 16 DIMMs — Clock speed: 1866, 1600, or 1333 MHz — Ranks per DIMM: 1, 2, or 4 — Operational voltage: 1.5 V or 1.35 V — Registered or unbuffered ECC DDR3 DIMMs (RDIMMs or UDIMMs) or load-reduced DIMMs (LRDIMMs) Memory is organized with four memory channels per CPU, with up to two DIMMs per channel, as shown in Figure 4.
CONFIGURING the SERVER Select DIMMs and Memory Mirroring Select the memory configuration and whether or not you want the memory mirroring option. The available memory DIMMs and mirroring option are listed in Table 4. NOTE: When memory mirroring is enabled, the memory subsystem simultaneously writes identical data to two channels. If a memory read from one of the channels returns incorrect data due to an uncorrectable memory error, the system automatically retrieves the data from the other channel.
CONFIGURING the SERVER Approved Configurations (1) 1-CPU configuration without memory mirroring: ■ Select from 1 to 8 DIMMs. Refer to Memory Population Rules, page 61, for more detailed information. (2) 1-CPU configuration with memory mirroring: ■ Select 2, 4, 6, or 8 identical DIMMs. The DIMMs will be placed by the factory as shown in the following table.
CONFIGURING the SERVER (4) 2-CPU configuration with memory mirroring: ■ Select 2, 4, 6, or 8 identical DIMMs per CPU. The DIMMs will be placed by the factory as shown in the following table.
CONFIGURING the SERVER Caveats ■ System speed is dependent on how many DIMMs are populated per channel. See Table 5 for details. Table 5 DIMM Memory Speeds 1333-MHz Capable CPU DIMM Speed 1600-MHz Capable CPU 1866-MHz Capable CPU LRDIMM RDIMM (DR, SR) LRDIMM RDIMM (DR, SR) LRDIMM RDIMM (DR, SR) Voltage Voltage Voltage Voltage Voltage Voltage DPC 1.3 V 1.5 V 1.3 V 1.5 V 1.3 V 1.5 V 1.3 V 1.5 V 1.3 V 1.5 V 1.3 V 1.
CONFIGURING the SERVER ■ By default, starting with UCSM 2.0.4, DIMMs run in memory performance mode (1.5v) by BIOS default, which yields faster memory speeds than when the BIOS is set for the memory to run in power-savings mode. Memory speed is dependent on factors such as: — CPU choice — DIMM choice — DIMM population (how many DIMMs per channel are populated) — BIOS setting. For the DIMMs to run in power-savings mode (1.

SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL Low-Voltage DIMM Considerations The C220 M3 server can be ordered with dual-voltage (1.5/1.35 V) DIMMs only. Note the following considerations: ■ Low-voltage DIMMs within the server must have the identical manufacturer, type, speed, and size. ■ Low-voltage DIMMs and standard-voltage DIMMs can be mixed in the same server. Note that this causes the system BIOS to default to standard-voltage operation (Performance Mode).
SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL RAID Details The available RAID configurations are shown in this section. (1) 1-CPU Configurations Mezzanine cards are not supported for 1-CPU configurations, Therefore, only the following RAID controllers are supported for single-CPU configurations.
SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL RAID Option ROM (OPROM) Settings The server contains an Option ROM (OPROM) for the PCIe slots. The server has a finite amount of option ROM with which it can boot up devices. Go into the BIOS and disable the OPROM on the PCIe slots not used for booting so that resources are available for the slots that are used for booting. An example OPROM BIOS screen is shown in Figure 8.
