RDIMM and CMM installation order
This section provides information about the installation order of DDR5 RDIMMs mixed with CXL memory modules (CMMs).
Memory installation guidelines
CMMs are only supported in server configurations with four processors.
CMM channel: number of devices per root port, with root ports separated by
+
, e.g. 2+2+2+2 = four root ports populated with two devices per root port- CMM modes:
1LM+Vol = Native DDR5 (1LM) and (volatile) CMM visible to software (SW) as separate tiers, separately interleaved
- Hetero x12 = DDR5 and (volatile) CMM interleaved together in one 12-way setNoteThe
Hetero mode is not supported with LCC processors. For specific models of LCC processors, see the Processors
section inSR850 V4 Product Guide.
