IODC is supported only in 4 socket configurations with 2 IOH or less. It is also not 
supported with 8 socket tracker modes 4 and 5.
IODC and DAS features are orthogonal. They can not be supported together. 
DAS targets memory latency improvements for snoop bound topologies and IODC 
targeting streams memory bandwidth improvement. 4/2 sockets topologies are not 
expected to benefit from DAS since the latency is memory bound. Similarly streams 
bandwidths for 8 socket topologies are limited by Intel QPI utilization and are unlikely 
to improve with IODC. 
Also DAS feature is beneficial for 8 socket topology where snoop latency is the 
bottleneck and IODC feature is beneficial for 4 socket topologies where memory 
bandwidth is a bigger concern.
All inter-socket mirroring configurations will need to disable IODC.
