dual socket memory install 1111
Hello,
My server has 8 sockets,
cpu1=dimm1,2,3,4;
cpu2=dimm5,6,7,8
The following pairs are interleaved:
(1,2)(3,4)(5,6)(7,8)
If I have a pair of 4 gig dimms
and a pair of 2 gig dimms,
can I install
dimm1=4gig,dimm2=4gig,
dimm5=2gig,dimm6=2gig.
This means that cpu1 and cpu2
have a different amount of ram.
If I install instead,
dimm1=4gig,dimm2=2gig,
dimm5=4gig,dimm6=2gig
then they won't be interleaved.
The motherboard can enable/disable numa as well.
What to do?
