The following notes describe the Active Memory features: v Memory mirroring enables you to improve the reliability of the memory in your server by creating a mirror of the data in memory port 1 and storing it in memory port 2. Note: For memory mirroring to work, DIMMs of the same size and clock speed must be installed in both memory ports. To enable memory mirroring, complete the following steps: 1. Install DIMMs of the same size and clock speed in the two memory ports. 2. Enable memory mirroring in the Configuration/Setup Utility program: a. Turn on the server. b. When the prompt Press F1 for Configuration/Setup is displayed, press F1. c. From the Configuration/Setup Utility main menu, select Advanced Setup. d.
