NOTE:
If the system configuration does not support an NPS profile, the options are not displayed until the configuration
changes.
NOTE:
If there is a memory training failure, configuration change, or processor swap that no longer supports a specific NPS
profile, an error message is displayed at the end of POST and logged in the LifeCycle Controller.
Interleaving option
Based on the NPSx selection, the AMD Platform Security Processor (PSP) firmware selects the corresponding preferred
memory interleaving. If the memory configuration does not allow the preferred option (Example: a channel is not populated
or one or more DIMMs on a channel does not initialize or train properly), the pre-BIOS firmware selects the corresponding
alternate memory interleaving option.
The following table describes the interleaving options based on NPSx:
NPSx
1
Eight channel interleaving (per socket) - NPS1
● This interleaves eight channels in a socket.
NOTE:
{CS A, B, C, D} and {CS E, F, G, H} is only recommended as a memory population if all eight channels are
populated as NPS2.
NOTE:
It is recommended that all channels must be populated (CS A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H) for NPS1, but NPS1 does
support a 4 channel configuration of (CS C, D, G, H) but does not have optimal performance.
● Requires all populated channels in a socket to have equal size memory.
● Single processor system creates a single NUMA node for the system, the SRAT and SLIT table are not required.
CCX/Last-Level Cache (LLC) as NUMA domains
In addition to selecting the number of NUMA domains via NPS option, the processor allows for making memory per CCX as
NUMA domain. In the processor each CCD has a maximum of two CCXs with each CCX having a shared last-level cache (LLC,
or L3 cache) for all cores. The CCX as NUMA domain option allows for each LLC to be configured as a NUMA domain so that
for certain workloads pinning execution to a single NUMA domain can be done.
Expansion cards and expansion card risers
An expansion card in the system is an add-on card that can be inserted into an expansion slot on the system board or riser card
to add enhanced functionality to the system through the expansion bus.
The VxRail E665 Series appliance supports PCI express (PCIe) generation 3 and 4 expansion cards that can be installed on the
system board using expansion card risers. This system supports low profile (LP) expansion card risers.
NOTE:
To avoid data loss, ensure that you refer to the procedures in SolVe Online for VxRail or the SolVe Desktop
application before performing any memory or expansion card replacement or upgrade procedures.
NOTE:
A System Event Log (SEL) event is logged if an expansion card riser is not supported or missing. It does not prevent
your system from turning on and no BIOS POST message or F1/F2 pause is displayed.
The following table provides the detailed information about the expansion card riser specifications:
