Checking for Memory DIMM Failures
HP System Partitions Guide: Administration for nPartitions, rev 5.1
364
In the above example, if any DIMM had failed its status would be “failed”
and all other DIMMs in its rank (for instance, rank 0 or rank 1) also
would be listed as failed.
Any one or more of the failed DIMMs might have been software
deallocated or might have failed self tests. In either case, all DIMMs in
the rank automatically are deallocated when any of the rank’s DIMMs
fails or is deallocated.
Checking Memory Status [Partition Manager]
This procedure (Cell —> Show Cell Details menu, CPUs/Memory tab) lists a
cell’s memory status, including any DIMM failures, from Partition
Manager.
Step 1. Run Partition Manager (/opt/parmgr/bin/parmgr) or access it from
SAM or a Web browser.
Step 2. On the left of the primary window, select the nPartition to which the cell
is assigned, or select Available Resources if the cell is unassigned.
Step 3. On the right of the primary window, select the cell whose memory details
you want to list, then select the Cell —> Show Cell Details menu item.
Step 4. Click the CPUs/Memory tab to display the status of memory modules
(DIMMs) for the cell.
