Dell M630 owner manual Processor Settings screen, Ats

Menu Item	Description
Memory Operating Mode	Specifies the memory operating mode. The options available are
	Optimizer Mode, Advanced ECC Mode, Mirror Mode, Spare Mode,
	Spare with Advanced ECC Mode, and Dell Fault Resilient Mode. By
	default, the Memory Operating Mode option is set to Optimizer Mode.
	NOTE: The Memory Operating Mode can have different defaults
	and available options based on the memory configuration of your
	system.
	NOTE: The Dell Fault Resilient Mode establishes an area of memory
	that is fault resilient. This mode can be used by an operating system
	that supports the feature to load critical applications or enables the
	operating system kernel to maximize system availability.
Node Interleaving	If this field is Enabled, memory interleaving is supported if a symmetric
	memory configuration is installed. If Disabled, the system supports Non-
	Uniform Memory architecture (NUMA) (asymmetric) memory
	configurations. By default, Node Interleaving option is set to Disabled.
Snoop Mode	Snoop Mode options available are Disabled, Home Snoop, Early Snoop,
	Cluster on Die. By default, the Snoop Mode option is set to Disabled. The
	field is only available when Node Interleaving is Disabled.

Processor Settings screen

You can use the Processor Settings screen to view the processor settings and perform specific functions such as enabling virtualization technology, hardware prefetcher, and logical processor idling.

You can view the Processor Settings screen by clicking System Setup Main Menu → System BIOS → Processor Settings.

Menu Item	Description
Logical Processor	Enables or disables the logical processors and displays the number of
	logical processors. If the Logical Processor option is set to Enabled, the
	BIOS displays all the logical processors. If this option is set to Disabled,
	the BIOS only displays one logical processor per core. By default, the
	Logical Processor option is set to Enabled.
Alternate RTID (Requestor	Enables you to allocate more RTIDs to the remote socket, thereby
Transaction ID) Setting	increasing cache performance between the sockets or easing work in
	normal mode for NUMA. By default, the Alternate RTID (Requestor
	Transaction ID) Setting is set to Disabled.
Virtualization Technology	Enables or disables the additional hardware capabilities provided for
	virtualization. By default, the Virtualization Technology option is set to
	Enabled.
Address Translation Service	Defines the Address Translation Cache (ATC) for devices to cache the
(ATS)	DMA transactions. This field provides an interface to a chipset's Address
	Translation and Protection Table to translate DMA addresses to host
	addresses. By default, the option is set to Enabled.
Adjacent Cache Line	Optimizes the system for applications that require high utilization of
Prefetch	sequential memory access. By default, the Adjacent Cache Line Prefetch
	option is set to Enabled. You can disable this option for applications that
	require high utilization of random memory access.
