DCPMM installation guidelines
The following are the recommended guidelines for installing data center persistent memory module (DCPMM) memory modules:
Each system supports maximum of one DCPMM memory module per channel.
NOTE:
If two different DCPMM capacities are mixed, an F1/F2 warning is displayed as the configuration is not
supported.
DCPMM can be mixed with RDIMM, LRDIMM, and 3DS LRDIMM.
Mixing of DDR4 DIMM types (RDIMM, LRDIMM, and 3DS LRDIMM), within channels, for Integrated Memory Controller
(iMC), or across sockets are not supported.
Mixing of DCPMM operating modes (App Direct, Memory Mode) is not supported.
If only one DIMM is populated on a channel, it should always go to the first slot in that channel (white slot).
If a DCPMM and a DDR4 DIMM are populated on the same channel, always plug DCPMM on second slot (black slot).
If the DCPMM is configured in Memory Mode, the recommended DDR4 to DCPMM capacity ratio is 1:4 to 1:16 per iMC.
DCPMMs' cannot be mixed with other DCPMMs capacities or NVDIMMs.
Mixing different capacities of RDIMMs and LRDIMMs are not allowed when DCPMM is installed.
DCPMMs of different capacities are not allowed.
