Advanced Memory Protection Technology
server availability:
Advanced ECC Memory
ECC protection provides the ability to detect and correct single bit memory errors while
Advanced ECC extends this coverage to include protection against multiple simultaneous
errors on a DIMM. Advanced ECC detects and corrects up to 4 bit memory errors that occur
within a single DRAM chip on a DIMM. Advanced ECC algorithms work in combination with
industry standard ECC DIMMS.
Advanced Memory Protection Configurations
Online Spare Memory
Offers a higher level of memory protection than Advanced ECC alone. The system is
configured with a spare bank of memory. If the number of single-bit correctable errors on a
bank exceeds the pre-defined error threshold, the failing bank will fail over to the Online
Spare bank without intervention or server interruption. The failed memory can then be
replaced at the user's convenience during a scheduled maintenance window.
Hot Plug Mirrored Memory
Hot Plug Mirrored Memory is a fault-tolerant memory feature that provides a higher level of
availability than Advanced ECC or Online Spare Memory because it protects against multibit errors and does not require any server downtime to replace failed DIMMs. Hot Plug
Mirrored Memory requires that two memory boards be installed, one an exact mirror of the
other, which run in parallel and provide protection against multi-bit memory errors. When
configured for Hot Plug Mirrored Memory, the system writes to both memory boards, but
– delivers unsurpassed memory protection and
or the various ProLiant Essentials Value
DA - 12201 Worldwide QuickSpecs — Version 32 — 3.30.2007
Page 7

Standard Features
reads from one. If a read error occurs, the system fails over to the redundant memory
board. At that point the memory board containing the failed DIMMs can be hot replaced.
Once the failed DIMMs are replaced and the memory board re-installed into the server, the
system goes back to full mirrored status. All this occurs without bringing the server down.
Hot Plug RAID Memory
Hot Plug RAID Memory (RAID Memory) provides a similar level of memory protection as
Mirrored Memory but obtains this protection using less total memory. For example, in a
RAID Memory configuration, 25% of the installed memory is not available to the operating
system. In a Mirrored Memory configuration, however, 50% of the installed memory is not
available to the operating system. RAID Memory protects the server against uncorrectable
memory errors that would otherwise result in a server failure.
NOTE:
All HP ProLiant ML570 G3 servers ship standard with a single memory board. Additional
memory boards are optional (P/N 348107-B21).

you must allow 830 square inches (5,350 sq cm) of hole evenly distributed from top to
bottom to permit adequate airflow (equivalent to the required 64 percent open area for
ventilation).
Side:
The clearance between the installed rack component and the side panels of the
rack must be a minimum of 2.75 inches (7 cm).
Always use blanking panels to fill all remaining empty front panel U-spaces in the rack.
