DL385 G2 Memory configuration

Hi, All

I have one DL385 G2 with only one CPU installed.
I get the DIMM SLOT full with 8 DIMMS but I just found only 4 dimms can be recongnized by system. I changed DIMM but problem persistent. Then, I wonder one CPU DL385 G2 configuration just can recognize the dimms on SLOT 1A,2A,3B,4B. If I want to add mem, I wonder if I need another CPU installed. Kindly pls advise.

Thank you.

Re: DL385 G2 Memory configuration

yes

you need to add another CPU that's the reason why the other 4 DIMMS are not being recognized

NOTE: DIMM banks are active only when the corresponding processor socket is populated.
