We got a supermicro server, http://www.supermicro.com/products/system/1u/5016/sys-5016i-ur.cfm, according spec, the server supports up to 32G memory when using ECC Register Memory.
However, when I tried the dmidecode command, it says 24G max memory:
[root@c1 ~]# dmidecode | grep Maximum
Maximum Size: 256 kB
Maximum Size: 1024 kB
Maximum Size: 8192 kB
Maximum Memory Module Size: 4096 MB
Maximum Total Memory Size: 24576 MB
Maximum Capacity: 24 GB
Maximum Value: Unknown
Which one I should trust?
