Memory modes
The server supports several memory features that allow flexibility in 
performance, redundancy, and ability to upgrade. The system BIOS can 
be configured as follows:
Maximum compatibility
Maximum performance
Memory  sparing
Memory RAID 
Memory mirroring
Only one of these memory modes can be selected at one time and the 
BIOS defaults to maximum performance mode. For non-redundant 
modes, support is also included for memory sparing, where a portion 
of each memory board is reserved for failover. 
The table below lists the memory hot-plug support under different 
memory modes.
Memory boards configured using RAID or mirroring are in redundant 
mode. If a memory board that is configured in a redundant mode has a 
DIMM or memory board fault, the memory board and/or DIMM 
containing the fault can be hot-removed or hot-replaced while the 
system is powered on. 
Hot-replace means you can replace a memory board with another 
memory board of identical size. This operation is supported in memory 
RAID and memory mirroring modes. 
Hot-add means you can add a memory board to a previously 
unoccuppied slot. This requires OS support and is supported in 
maximum compatibility and memory mirroring modes. 
Hot-upgrade means you can replace an existing memory board with a 
memory board that contains more memory capacity. This requires OS 
support and is supported by the memory RAID mode only.
