Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 (x64) Edition With SP2 Limitation With 1 TB System Memory (When Memory RAS Mode is Not Used) The system does not boot to the operating system with 1 TB of system memory. To resolve this issue, set the memory RAS mode to sparing or mirror. After installing the operating system, add a boot time switch mem=1046528 or /burnmemory=2048 in the boot.ini file before disabling the RAS mode for subsequent boots. MAC Address Labels For security reasons, the embedded NIC and iDRAC6 Enterprise MAC address labels provided with your system cannot be affixed after they have been removed. NOTE: The labels are located on the system identification panel on the front of the system. System Limitations With an Optional 10 Gb I/O Riser The 10 Gb I/O riser provides two 10 Gb SFP+ ports using a Broadcom® 57711 controller in addition to two 1 GbE ports. The following are the limitations with the 10 Gb I/O riser: • To ensure system power redundancy, the 10 Gb I/O riser requires all four power supplies to be connected to the AC power source. The system power becomes non-redundant if one of the power supplies is removed. CAUTION: A power supply failure or removal of another power supply after the system power becomes non-redundant can lead to a system failure and results in loss of data. • Wake On LAN (WOL) is not supported on the 10 Gb SFP+ ports due to Broadcom 57711 design limitations. However, WOL is supported on the two 1 GbE ports available on the riser. 4 Information Update
