Abstract
Systems and methods for reducing problems and disadvantages associated with physically asymmetrical memory structures are disclosed. A method for configuring memories in an information handling system having a plurality of memories, each memory local to one of a plurality of nodes, and wherein at least one memory of the plurality of memories has a different memory capacity than at least one other memory of the plurality of memories is provided. The method may include determining a smallest memory capacity of the plurality of memories. The method may also include allocating a node-interleaved memory using a portion of each memory equal to the smallest memory capacity. For each particular memory not fully allocated to the node-interleaved memory, each portion of each particular memory not allocated to the node-interleaved memory may be associated with a node local to the particular memory.
