NOTE: HPE memory from previous generation servers are not fully compatible with the HPE ProLiant

NOTE: To realize the performance memory capabilities listed in this document, HPE SmartMemory is
required. For additional information, please see the HPE SmartMemory QuickSpecs at:
NOTE: LRDIMM and RDIMM are distinct memory technologies and cannot be mixed within a server.
NOTE: Depending on the memory configuration and processor model, the memory speed may run at
2133MHz, 1866MHz, or 1600MHz. Please see Memory Population Table or the Online Memory
Signing Service. This signature is verified before the flash process starts, reducing accidental programming
and preventing malicious efforts to corrupt system ROM.
HPE ROM provides for essential initialization and validation of hardware compon
to the customer-installed operating system. The ROM also provides the capability of booting from various
fixed media (HDD, CD-ROM) and removable media (USB), to continue operation to the operating system.
HPE ROM performs very early configuration of the video controller, to allow monitoring of initialization
progress via an attached monitor. If configuration or hardware errors are discovered during this early phase
of hardware initialization, suitable messages are now displayed on the connected monitor. Additionally, these
configuration or hardware errors are logged to the Integrated Management Log (IML) to assist in diagnosis.
The HPE ProLiant ROM is used to configure the following:
• Processor and chipset status registers
• System memory, memory map, and memory initialization
• System hardware configuration (Integrated PCI devices and optional PCIe cards).
NOTE: For further information, please refer to the HPE RBSU (ROM based setup utility) user guide:

specifications which supports both legacy boot and UEFI boot operation. The HPE ProLiant Xl170r Gen9
defaults to UEFI boot operation and can be factory or field configured for Legacy boot operation.
NOTE: For UEFI boot operation, boot environment and OS image installations should be configured
properly to support UEFI.
NOTE: For more information on Hewlett Packard Enterprise's ProLiant System BIOS and UEFI, see the
UEFI Information Library: http://www.hpe.com/go/uefi/docs NOTE: HPE Legacy FIO Mode Setting (758959-B22) can be selected to configure the system in UEFI
mode in the factory.
To modify the server configuration ROM default settings, press F9 in the HPE ProLiant POST screen to
enter the UEFI System Utilities screen. By default, the System Utilities menus are in the English language.
UEFI enables numerous new capabilities, including both industry standard functionality and features
specific to HPE ProLiant servers. Following are some of the features that UEFI enables and that the HPE
ProLiant Xl170r Gen9 can support when configured for UEFI boot operation:
• Secure Boot - A new feature in which the system firmware, option card firmware, operating

HPE ProLiant Gen9 servers offer a new networking technology-Flexible
the choice of 1Gigabit, 10Gigabit, InfiniBand or FlexibleLOM solutions
Operating system specific functionality - Microsoft Windows 2012 supports several features only
when installed in UEFI mode.
• Support for > 2.2 TB (using GPT) boot drives - Such drives could previously only be used for
boot drives when using RAID solutions such as HPE Smart Array.
• UEFI Shell - Provides a pre-boot environment for running scripts and tools. The HPE ProLiant
UEFI Shell provides both standard capabilities as well as numerous enhancements.
• PXE boot support for IPv6 networks.
• PXE Multicast Boot allowing for faster PXE deployments for large numbers of servers.
• Boot support for option cards that only support a UEFI option ROM.
NOTE: When the server is configured for UEFI Boot Mode, PXE servers must be configured with a UEFI
boot image. When the server boots in UEFI mode, it does not boot media with a legacy OS installation.
This includes DOS targets and Windows or Linux systems installed in Legacy mode. The reverse is also
true for servers that boot in Legacy mode. If Microsoft Windows 2008 or Windows 2008 R2 is used in
UEFI Boot Mode, UEFI Optimized Mode must be disabled (this option is enabled by default). This is
required to work around an issue in Windows 2008 / 2008 R2 that requires legacy BIOS components

Alpha- population order
Numeric-DIMM Slot ID for spare replacement
Before Installing DIMMs, review the following population guidelines:
Install DIMMs only if the corresponding processor is installed.
When two processors are installed, balance the total capacity of the DIMM’s across the two processors.
White DIMM’s slots denote the first slot of a channel (Ch 1-A, Ch 2-B, Ch 3-C, Ch 4-D).
Do not mix RDIMMs and LRDIMMs in the same system.
When only one processor is installed, install DIMMs in sequential alphabetic order; A, B, C, D, E, F, and so
forth.
When two processors are installed, install DIMMs in sequential alphabetic order; P1-A, P2-A, P1-B, P2-B,
P1-C, P2-C, and so forth.
For DIMM spare replacement, install the DIMMs per slot numbers as instructed by your system software.
These are general DIMM population rules.
For specific memory mode population rules see the server user guide on the Hewlett Packard Enterprise
White DIMM slots denote the first slot of a channel. For 1 DPC (DIMM per channel) populate white slots only.
A minimum of one DIMM is required per server.
Install DIMMs only if the corresponding processor is installed.
If only one processor is installed in a two processor system, only half of the DIMM slots are available.
To maximize performance, it is recommended to balance the total memory capacity between all installed
processors and to load the channels similarly whenever possible.
When two processors are installed, balance the DIMMs across the two processors.
Populate DIMMs from heaviest load (quad-rank) to lightest load (single-rank) within a channel. Heaviest load
(DIMM with most ranks) within a channel goes furthest from the processor.
Do not mix RDIMMs or LRDIMMs.
LRDIMMs are supported up to 2 DIMMs per channel.
DIMMs of different speeds may be mixed in any order; the server will select a common optimal speed.
