Hi Chandra,

Questions:
1. How much memory do you already have on the server?

Normally the rp8400 supports from upto 64 GB.

2. Have ou already acquired the memory modules?

Supported product numbers are: A6097A, A6098A and A6100A.

hope this helps!

hi again,


also found this interesting document:

Basically the following memory loading rules should be obeyed:


Memory must be installed in quads (4 DIMMs of equal density)

Memory is available in four densities: 2 GB (4Ã 512MB), 4 GB (4Ã 1024MB), 8 GB (4Ã 2048MB), and 16-GB (4 x 4096MB)

Minimum memory is 2-GB per cell

Maximum memory per system is 256 GB-using sixteen 16 GB Quads.

On each cell board, Memory Quads must be installed in the following order:
1st (0A, 0B, 1A, 1B), 2nd (2A, 2B, 3A, 3B), 3rd (4A, 4B, 5A, 5B), 4th (6A, 6B, 7A, 7B)



hope this helps too!
