HP Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP) and HP Smart Update Manager (HP SUM) provide a comprehensive approach to firmware and system software maintenance. Together they provide better operating stability and ensure maximum uptime. The SPP will be updated at a predictable cadence, typically coinciding with new HP server hardware launches. By enabling firmware to be updated online and integrating firmware and system software updates in one operation, HP SUM and the SPP offer faster updates of individual servers and dramatically faster updates of entire BladeSystem enclosures. Further improving system uptime and stability is the fact that HP provides 12 months of support for each Service Pack for ProLiant release.

The user experience around HP SUM and the SPP has been improved in several ways, starting with the web download. A single web page provides access to a single download containing both the latest version of HP SUM and the latest SPP. Optional smaller subsets with only specific types of servers or specific operating systems are offered to save on download time. The HP SUM application provides a straightforward, intuitive user interface that guides the user through the steps of discovery, analyses and update, providing comprehensive information on available updates, criticality and interdependencies. This information is also available in reports. By providing the option of multiple local or shared repositories which can be easily updated from hp.com, HP SUM provides the tools to optimize stability and consistency throughout the company. While HP SUM and the SPP recommend the combinations of firmware and system software that HP has found to be the best practice, the application gives customers the flexibility to set their own specific baseline.

The Service Pack for ProLiant has been rigorously tested with specific attention for interaction between firmware, drivers and agents both within the server as well as in interaction with the BladeSystem enclosure components (Onboard Administrator and Virtual Connect). This testing ensures the highest quality as well as providing the input for HP SUM to deploy updates taking into account all interdepencies, when determining the correct updates and order of update deployment.

NOTE: The Service Pack for ProLiant (which includes HP SUM) can be downloaded from www.hp.com/go/spp/download. More information can be found: http://www.hp.com/go/SmartUpdate, www.hp.com/go/spp and http://www.hp.com/go/hpsum

Memory Subsystem Architecture
Intel® Xeon® processor E7 and 7500 series memory architecture is designed to take advantage of multiple stages of memory interleaving to reduce latency and increase bandwidth.

Each processor contains two Memory Controllers as shown in the Processor/Memory interconnect figure below. Each Memory controller has two Scalable Memory Interface (SMI) buses operating in lockstep where each SMI bus connects to a memory buffer. The purpose of the buffer is to convert SMI to DDR3. Each buffer has two DDR3 channels and can support up to four DIMMs for a total of eight DIMMs per cartridge.

• Memory speed is not affected by number of DIMMs or ranks. All DIMMs will run at the highest possible speed for a given processor.
• DDR3 memory speed is a function of the processors QPI bus speed such that
  • Processors with a QPI speed of 6.4GT will run memory at 1066MHz
  • Processors with a QPI speed of 5.6GT will run memory at 978MHz
  • Processors with a QPI speed of 4.8GT will run memory at 800 MHz

DIMM Installation guidelines
Each memory cartridge can support up to 8 DIMMs, for a system total of 64 DIMMs. When installing DIMM modules in the Memory Cartridge observe the following minimum guidelines:

• UDIMMs are not supported
• Minimum allowable configuration is two DIMMs per cartridge.
• DIMMs must be installed in pairs with identical characteristics. For configuration simplicity HP recommends using identical part numbered DIMMs throughout when possible.
• DIMM pairs MUST be populated in sequence by letter designation. Install DIMM pair 1A, 8A first followed by DIMM pair 3B, 6B then DIMM pair 2C, 7C and DIMM pair 4D, 5D last.
• Maximum performance is achieved by balancing DIMM pairs by letter groupings across all memory cartridges. Such that the 1A, 8A pair is install in all memory cartridges first (see diagram below) followed by the B pair, C pair and D pair.
• AMP modes Online Sparing and Memory Mirroring have further requirements beyond these listed here. Please refer to the user guide for additional memory configuration requirements.

Memory Cartridge population guidelines
This server contains 8 memory cartridge slots in the processor memory drawer. Observe the following guidelines:

• Populate memory cartridge slots for a processor only if the processor is installed where:
  • Processor 1 connects to cartridge slots 1 and 2.
  • Processor 2 connects to cartridge slots 3 and 4.
  • Processor 3 connects to cartridge slots 5 and 6.
  • Processor 4 connects to cartridge slots 7 and 8.
• Minimum recommended cartridge population is one cartridge per processor. For best performance two cartridges per processor are recommended.
• Processors installed without corresponding memory cartridges will incur high memory access latencies and is not recommended.
• To maximize performance in multi-processor configurations distribute the total memory capacity evenly between all processors.

Hemisphere mode
The architecture incorporates hemisphere mode, a high performance interleaving technology. Hemisphere mode allows interleaving between the two processor memory controllers internal to each processor.

Hemisphere mode is enabled when all processors in a system have the memory behind both memory controllers populated identically.

• To enable each processor to enter hemisphere mode it must have both cartridges installed, populated with equal memory capacities and follow the DIMM installation guidelines.

Memory Performance Optimization
The DL580 G7 supports 64 DIMMs across four multi-core processors. While there are many DIMM population configurations that can support any desired total memory size, optimal performance can only be achieved when DIMMs are populated to take advantage of the architecture. Reference the Figure: Hemisphere Population Diagram to achieve the best performance for a given memory/processor configuration.

• The largest contributor to maximum memory bandwidth performance is to utilize both memory controllers inside the processor. This is achieved by populating both memory cartridges for each installed processor.
• The second largest contributor to performance is to populate each DDR3 channel in each memory cartridge. To achieve this, the minimum DIMM count per cartridge is four. Maximum bandwidth is reached by fully populating all memory cartridges with the maximum number of eight DIMMs per cartridge.
• Best performance is obtained when all installed processors are enabled for Hemisphere mode. HP recommends two memory boards per processor- each one with at least 4 DIMMs- for improved memory bandwidth8
• Hemisphere mode is optimum when four or eight DIMMs are installed per cartridge. Hemisphere mode can be reached with two or six DIMMs per cartridge (2 cartridges per processor) but it is not optimal configuration for Hemisphere mode.
• Plan your memory configurations using Identical DIMMs to reach your memory size target taking into account that 32 and 64 DIMM count configurations result in the highest performance. For a 4 processor example:
  • If initial memory target is 64GB then populate a 4 processor system with eight cartridges of 4 - 2GB DIMMs each for a total of 32 DIMMs. Your maximum expansion target is 128GB with 64 2GB DIMMs.
  • For 4GB DIMMs your initial memory target is 128GB using 32 DIMMs. Your maximum expansion target is 256GB with 64 DIMMs.
  • For 8GB DIMMs your initial memory target is 256GB using 32 DIMMs. Your maximum expansion target is 512GB with 64 DIMMs.
  • Maximum system memory capability is reached with an initial memory target of 512GB with 32 - 16GBDIMMs and 2TB with 64 32GB DIMMs.
• The more ranks per DIMM the higher the performance such that Quad rank DIMMs perform better than dual rank DIMMs.

NOTE: Memory configurations listed do not apply to "Factory Integrated Models". Only registered (RDIMM) speeds of 1066 or 1333 running at 1066 are supported and must be installed in pairs. UDIMMs are not supported.
