______________________ Note | ______________________ |
If you set the J3 jumpers for 128 MB because the other interconnect is MC1, and then later on decide to upgrade to dual, redundant MC2 hardware using 512 MB address space, you will have to reset the jumpers. If you set the jumpers to 512 MB now, the software will only allow the use of 128 MB address space for a mixed rail cluster (MC1 on one rail, MC2 on the other rail).
J4 — Page size: Jumper pins 1 to 3 to select 8 KB
J5 — AlphaServer 8x00 Mode: Jumper pins 1 to 2 for AlphaServer 8200, 8400, GS60, GS60E, and GS140 systems and jumper pins 2 to 3 for all other AlphaServer systems
J10 — Fiber Optics Mode Enable: Jumper pins 2 to 3 to enable the use of the fiber optics modules. Jumper pins 1 to 2 to disable the use of fiber optics
