Memory Operating Mode

This field displays the type of memory operation if a

 

valid memory configuration is installed. When set to

 

Optimizer Mode, the memory controllers run

 

independently of each other for improved memory

 

performance. When set to Mirror Mode, memory

 

mirroring is enabled. When set to Spare Mode, memory

 

sparing is enabled. When set to Advanced ECC Mode,

 

two controllers are joined in 128-bit mode running

 

multi-bit advanced ECC. For information about the

 

memory modes, see System Memory.

 

NOTE: The Spare Mode option may not be present on all

 

systems.

Node Interleaving

If this field is Enabled, memory interleaving is supported

(Disabled default)

if a symmetric memory configuration is installed. If

 

Disabled, the system supports Non-Uniform Memory

 

architecture (NUMA) (asymmetric) memory

 

configurations.

 

NOTE: The Node Interleaving field must be set to Disabled

 

when using the redundant memory feature.
