Notes

1. The minimum operating system is Solaris 8 7/01.
2. Mixing module speeds within a Sun Fire V880 is not supported.
3. Memory errors include CPU number, J number, and Slot location.
4. Solaris 8 7/01 and 10/01 require Patch >=108528-13 to identify a failing DIMMs CPU/Memory board slot location (ABCD).

Memory Installation Notes

1. Four DIMMs of the same size form a group.
2. The minimum memory is eight DIMMS in groups A0 and B0.
3. DIMM groups associated with a failed CPU are unavailable for use.
4. Interleaving is limited to memory on the same CPU/Memory Board.
5. Two-way interleaving occurs in any group when the DIMM size does not match the size used in any other group.
6. Four-way interleaving occurs between any two groups when the DIMM sizes are the same.
7. Eight-way interleaving occurs when the DIMMs in all four groups are the same size.

Option Notes

1. Option 7046 includes 501-5818 with no memory.
2. Option 7047 includes 501-5818 with 4GB of memory (16 × 256MB).
