Service manual

The callouts in Example 6–1 are explained below.
1
Shows the SET MEMORY command that configures interleaving with
the console program. This command invokes the default interleaving
configuration. It is recommended that this default be used, rather than
trying to interleave memory manually.
2
The SHOW MEMORY command displays the node number (node #),
interleave (ILV), and total usable memory (xxMb) lines from the self-
test results.
3
Shows the SET MEMORY command that creates a 2-way interleave
as requested by the user. In this example the user explicitly specified
how to interleave the memory modules. Each interleaving set must
contain the node number of the memory module. If there is more than
one memory module in a set, they are joined by a + sign. Each set of
interleaved memory modules must be separated by a comma.
4
The system is initialized and the new memory interleave configuration
takes effect. You cannot initialize a memory node by itself after a SET
MEMORY command because memory addressing would be changed and
data structures lost.
5
The SHOW MEMORY command displays the configuration set in
3
.
NOTE: Refer to Chapter 5 of the VAX 6000 Series Owner’s Manual
for detailed information on the SET MEMORY and SHOW MEMORY
commands.
The SET MEMORY command does not change memory interleaving
immediately; it just modifies the memory configuration in the EEPROM.
The memory configuration specified by the SET MEMORY command
takes place when the system is initialized (by a power-up or INITIALIZE
command).
