LH4 Memory location question

I am getting two memory errors, the first one persistently and the second one just once:

Single Bit error bank/board 3, slot 1

multiple bit error Slot 2, bank/board 0 [zero] occured.

I have read the documentation but there is no reference to bank/board 0 (only board A & B and Banks 1 through 4). The documentation calls J1 & J2 bank 1, J3 & J3 bank 2, and so on. So, I am wondering if the error is counting bank/board 0 as actually the first bank/board or???? Similarly, is bank/board 3 really the fourth bank? With all that said, are there only 2 slots for each bank even though there are two slots per memory board for bank. In other words J1 & J2 of both boards A and B are called bank 1 in the documentation. Bottom line, how are the memory slots really defined. Thanks.

Re: LH4 Memory location question

along the years the differents tools reported memory bank numeration in different way, some start from bank one to four, some start from zero to three. this is for the slot.

The bank of memory is usualy conted as the chip on the dimm itselt, but here also depending of the internal stucture of different dimm models, the first bank is not always the first fisical one, and you have also to cound the parity chip that can interfere.

I suggest you to identify the slot and eventualy swapp the dimm and see where the error occur, if it occur again
