Changing the memory allocation

Enable or disable the I/O Adapter Enlarged Capacity task. Once enabled, you can increase the amount of Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) memory space allocated to specified PCI slots.

You can increase the amount of I/O adapter memory for specified PCI slots. When the I/O Adapter Enlarged Capacity option is enabled, you can specify the PCI slots to receive the largest memory-mapped address spaces that are available.

To perform this operation, you must have one of the following authority levels:
  • Administrator
  • Authorized service provider

To enable or disable I/O adapter memory allocation, perform the following steps:

  1. On the ASMI Welcome pane, specify your user ID and password, and click Log In.
  2. In the navigation area, expand System Configuration.
  3. Select I/O Adapter Enlarged Capacity.
  4. In the right pane, select Enabled or Disabled. When enabling the I/O Adapter Enlarged Capacity, you must specify the number of slots to enable.
  5. Click Save settings.
  6. Reboot the system for the changes to take effect.
