Memory in ztC Endurance Systems

Read this topic before you add or replace registered dual in-line memory modules (RDIMMsClosed Registered dual in-line memory module. RDIMMs have a register between the system’s memory controller and the dynamic random-access memory modules, thus allowing for greater capacity and increased reliability.) in a ztC Endurance system.

Memory Components in Each Compute Module

Table 1 lists the memory components in each compute moduleClosed A customer-replaceable unit (CRU) located at the front of the ztC Endurance system. It is equipped with processors, RDIMMs, BIOS, BMC, fans, and other technology to boot and run the ztC Endurance system. Each system contains two compute modules..

Table 1: Memory Components
Model Processors Sockets RDIMM Slots Minimum Number of RDIMMs Maximum Number of RDIMMs
3100 1 2 161 1 4
5100 2 2 16 2 8
7100 2 2 16 4 16

Figure 4 shows the area of a compute module that contains memory components. Specifically, the figure shows the two processors, each installed in a socket, and the location of each RDIMMClosed Registered dual in-line memory module. RDIMMs have a register between the system’s memory controller and the dynamic random-access memory modules, thus allowing for greater capacity and increased reliability. slot.

Memory in ztC Endurance 3100 Systems

Table 2 shows a representation, starting from the front of the compute module, of RDIMM locations for supported ztC Endurance 3100 configurations. An "X" indicates the presence of an RDIMM; all other RDIMM slots are empty.

Note: Table 2 does not show the RDIMM slots that are next to the empty socket.
