DIMM Idle Power Saving Mode (G7 servers), Enabled Default

Page 43 highlights

• Disabled DIMM Idle Power Saving Mode (G7 servers) The DIMM Idle Power Saving Mode option provides the capability to enable or disable power throttling for the DIMMs installed in the system. Enabling this option allows DIMMs that support idle power saving features to enter a low power mode when idle. In some applications, this can reduce overall system power consumption, but may also slightly reduce overall memory performance due to the increased latency associated with transitions into and out of idle power saving mode. When disabled, this option prevents installed DIMMs from entering a lower power mode when idle. It is important to ensure all installed DIMMs support DIMM idle power saving features before selecting the Enabled option. Such support has been verified for all HP DIMMs supported on this platform. • Enabled (Default) RBSU menu (HP ProLiant G7 servers or server blades) 43
