Sun T5120: Memory issue with 8GB DIMMs, "Unsupported memory configuration"
- by watain
I'm trying to upgrade RAM in a Sun T5120 server, replacing 2GB (Sun P/N: 501-7953-01) with 8GB DIMMs (Sun P/N: 511-1262-01).
When bringing up the host system, I get the following errors on the ILOM:

As you can see, the only error message I get is "Unsupported memory configuration".
Note that I'm absolutely sure that I placed in the DIMMs in the correct slots.
Might this issue be related to the Voltage of the DIMMs? Any suggestions on how to trouble-shoot this issue?
This issue seems to be similar to the one explained at "Inserted disabled" while upgrading Sun Sparc t5120 memory. However the given link http://docs.sun.com/source/820-4445-10/chapter1.html seems to point to an inexistent page...
