Memory Mirroring is a RAS feature that enables duplicating memory content at a remote DIMM in the partition. This capability
enables high data availability from memory subsystem. Fault Resilient Memory enables you to select the segments of system
memory that contains the most critical code.
Sample memory configurations
The following table shows sample memory configurations for a single processor that follow the appropriate memory guidelines
stated in this section.
NOTE: DIMMs populated must be identical for each riser. In the mirroring mode, only one of the two CPUs is populated.
