2.3.3 Memory Compatibility
Observe the following rules when conguring DDR4 memory modules:
● A server must use the same model of DDR4 memory modules, and all the
memory modules operate at the same speed, which is the smallest value of:
●Memory speed supported by a processor
●Maximum operating speed of a memory module
● The DDR4 memory modules of
specications (capacity, bit width, rank, and height) cannot be used together.
● Contact your local Huawei sales representative or use the Intelligent
Computing Compatibility Checker to determine the components to be used.

dierent types (RDIMM and LRDIMM) and
●The memory can be used with Intel® Xeon® Scalable Skylake and Cascade
Lake processors. The maximum memory capacity supported varies depending
on the processor model.
●The total memory capacity is the sum of the capacity of all DDR4 memory
modules.
The total memory capacity cannot exceed the maximum memory capacity
supported by the CPUs.
●Use the Intelligent Computing Compatibility Checker to determine the
capacity type of a single memory module.
●The maximum number of memory modules supported by a server varies
depending on the CPU type, memory type, rank quantity, and operating
voltage.
Each memory channel supports a maximum of 8 ranks. The number of memory
modules supported by each channel varies depending on the number of ranks
supported by each channel:
Number of memory modules supported by each channel ≤ Number of ranks supported
by each memory channel/Number of ranks supported by each memory module
●A memory channel supports more than eight ranks for LRDIMMs.
A quad-rank LRDIMM generates the same electrical load as a single-rank RDIMM on a
memory bus.
FusionServer Pro XH321 V5 Server Node
Maintenance and Service Guide2 Hardware Description
ParameterSpecications
● a: The maximum number of DDR4 memory modules is based on dualprocessor conguration. The value is halved for a server with only one
processor.
● b: The maximum DDR4 memory capacity varies depending on the processor
type. The value listed in this table is based on the assumption that memory
modules are fully
congured.
● c: DPC (DIMM per channel) indicates the number of DIMMs per channel.
● d: If the Cascade Lake processor is used, the maximum operating speed of a
memory module can reach 2933 MT/s. If the Skylake processor is used, the
maximum operating speed of a memory module can reach 2666 MT/s only.
2.3.4 Memory Installation Guidelines
●Observe the following when conguring DDR4 memory modules:
–Install memory modules only when corresponding processors are
installed.
–Do not install LRDIMMs and RDIMMs in the same server.
–Install
●Observe the following when

StorageSupports a variety of drive congurations. For details,
see 2.4.1 Drive Congurations.
● Supports two M.2 SSDs.
NOTE
● The M.2 SSD module is used only as the boot device
when the OS is installed. Small-capacity (32 GB or 64
GB) M.2 SSDs do not support logging due to poor
endurance. If a small-capacity M.2 SSD is used as the
boot device, a dedicated log drive or log server is
required for logging. For example, you can dump
VMware logs in either of the following ways:
● Redirect /scratch. For details, see https://
kb.vmware.com/s/article/1033696.
● Congure syslog. For details, see https://
kb.vmware.com/s/article/2003322.
● The M.2 SSD cannot be used to store data due to poor
endurance. In write-intensive applications, the M.2 SSD
will wear out in a short time.
Use enterprise-level high endurance (HE) SSDs or
HDDs for data storage.
● The M.2 SSD is not recommended for write-intensive
service software due to poor endurance.
● Do not use the M.2 SSD as the cache.
● Supports hot swap of SAS/SATA drives.
● Supports a variety of RAID controller cards. Use the
Intelligent Computing Compatibility Checker to
obtain information about the

controller cards supported.
– The RAID controller card supports RAID
conguration, RAID level migration, and drive

NOTE
● The electrical LOM ports cannot be connected to PoE
devices (such as a switch with PoE enabled). Connecting a
LOM port to a PoE device may cause link communication
failure or even damage the NIC.

Step 5 Install optical modules and optical cable as required.
Replacing the optical cable, network cable, or optical module will interrupt
services.
1.Close the security pin on the optical module, use die-casting pliers to clamp
the optical module, and insert it into the optical port until you hear a click.
2.Use die-casting pliers to clamp the optical connector, and insert it into the
optical port of an optical module until you hear a click.

8.4.9 Removing an M.2 FRU on the Avago SAS3004iMR PCIe
RAID Controller Card
The M.2 FRU on the Avago SAS3004iMR RAID controller card is hot swappable.
Procedure
Step 1 Determine the positions and slots of the M.2 FRUs on the Avago SAS3004iMR
RAID controller card.
Determine the position of the M.2 FRU to be removed. Do not remove the M.2
FRU running an OS. Otherwise, all services on the server node will be aected.

Step 6 Remove the conjoined heat sink and processor carrier.
1.Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the four screws (marked 2 in the label) in
the middle of the heat sink in a diagonal sequence. See (1) in Figure 8-33.
2.Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the two diagonal screws (marked 1 in the
label) on the heat sink. See (2) in Figure 8-33.
3.Lift the heat sink and place it upside down on the ESD desk.
4.Insert a
at-head screwdriver into the groove of the processor carrier, and
twist it to pry up one side of the carrier. See (3) in Figure 8-33.
Insert only the tip of the at-head screwdriver. Do not apply excessive force.
5.Holding the other end of the carrier, remove the carrier and processor in the
arrow direction. See (4) and (5) in Figure 8-33.

2.Use a clean card or blade to smear the thermal compound over the entire
center of the CPU.
The thickness of the thermal compound is about that of a piece of ordinary
paper. Ensure that the thermal compound is evenly and fully coated.

Step 9 Install the processor carrier to the conjoined heat sink.
1.Aligning the processor corner with a triangle mark with the corner of the heat
sink with a notched triangle, buckle the processor carrier on the heat sink.

2.Place the assembled processor and heat sink upside down on the desk, and
check that the processor carrier and the heat sink are
processor carrier is not rmly buckled with the heat sink, press the processor
carrier to secure it.
Step 10 Install the processor and conjoined heat sink.
1.Remove the processor socket cover.
When removing the socket cover, keep it parallel with the board to prevent
damage to pins.
2.Shine a light at various angles onto the processor socket to check for twisted
pins, foreign matter, and pad damage.
If bent pins or foreign matters are found or the bonding pad is damaged, stop
the operation and contact Huawei technical support.

3.Horizontally holding the processor and heat sink, align the notched corner on
the heat sink with the notched corner on the processor socket, and place the
processor and heat sink downwards on the socket along the guide sleeves.
Keep the processor and heat sink parallel with the mainboard to prevent
damage to processor socket pins.
4.Use a Phillips screwdriver to tighten the two diagonal screws (marked 1 on
the label) on the heat sink. See (1) in Figure 8-43.
5.Use a Phillips screwdriver to tighten the four screws (marked 2 in the label) in
the middle of the heat sink in a diagonal sequence. See (2) in Figure 8-43.

Step 2 Remove the server node.
For details, see 8.3.3 Removing an XH321 V5.
Step 3 Place the server node on the ESD workstation.
Step 4 Remove the air duct.
For details, see 8.4.23 Removing the Air Duct.
Step 5 Take a spare memory module.
Step 6 Check the positions and installation guidelines of the memory modules.
For details, see 2.3.5 Memory Installation Positions.

Step 7 Install the memory module.
1.Open the two memory module ejectors on the memory slot.
Figure 8-47 Opening the memory module ejectors
2.Align the edge connector of the memory module with the alignment key of
the memory slot, and insert the memory module in the slot.
The two memory ejectors are closed automatically after the memory module
rmly seated.
