This process occurs without intervention or server interruption and enables you to
replace the degraded DIMM at your convenience during a regularly scheduled
shutdown.
DIMM Installation Requirements
In addition to the DIMM configuration requirements for advanced ECC memory,
observe the following DIMM configuration requirements when installing DIMMs for
online spare memory:
• Bank D is the online spare bank and must be populated when the server is
configured for online spare memory.
• DIMMs installed in the online spare bank must be of equal or greater capacity
than each of those in the remaining banks.
IMPORTANT: If any one of the above requirements is not met, the system automatically
switches to advanced ECC memory and displays an error message during POST.
