Memory configurations
To optimize server blade availability, the server blade supports the following AMP modes:
Advanced ECC—provides up to 4-bit error correction and enhanced performance over Lockstep mode.
This mode is the default option for this server blade.
Online spare memory—provides protection against failing or degraded DIMMs. Certain memory is
reserved as spare, and automatic failover to spare memory occurs when the system detects a DIMM that
