New R710 Server with Redhat Linux 5.4

06 Nov 2009 10:03AM

We have acquired the new generation R710 Quad Core servers with 64 Gb og RAM.

Installed RedHat Linux 5 update 4, 64 bit version and the system only recognizes 32 Gb of RAM not the full 64 Gb installed.

Pushed the RAM to 72 Gb and Linux only sees 32 Gb no matter what the configuration is.

Anyone experienced this issue, please post.

Thank you.

We found the fix in case someone has the same issue.

After installing Linux and the RAM is less that what the system detects.

update the following file using vi:

/etc/grub.conf and change the value for

default=0

to

default=1

Save and reboot.

The system should read full memory after it comes up.

Hope this helps.
