According to one embodiment of the present invention, a method for operating a three dimensional (“3D”) memory device includes detecting, by a memory controller, a first error on the 3D memory device and detecting, by the memory controller, a second error in a first chip in a first rank of the 3D memory device, wherein the first chip has an associated first chip select. The method also includes powering up a second chip in a second rank, sending a command from the memory controller to the 3D memory device to replace the first chip in the first chip select with the second chip and correcting the first error using an error control code.

A cable for high speed data communications that includes a first inner conductor enclosed by a first dielectric layer and a second inner conductor enclosed by a second dielectric layer. The inner conductors and the dielectric layers are disposed within the cable in parallel with a longitudinal axis of the cable. The cable also includes drain conductors disposed within the cable laterally to the inner conductors adjacent to the dielectric layers along the longitudinal axis of the cable and within thirty degrees of a horizontal axis through the inner conductors. The cable also includes a conductive shield composed of a strip of conductive shield material wrapped in a rotational direction along and about the longitudinal axis around the inner conductors, the dielectric layers, and the drain conductors.

A method, system and computer program product implement memory performance management and enhanced memory reliability of a computer system accounting for system thermal conditions. When a primary memory temperature reaches an initial temperature threshold, reads are suspended to the primary memory and reads are provided to a mirrored memory in a mirrored memory pair, and writes are provided to both the primary memory and the mirrored memory. If the primary memory temperature reaches a second temperature threshold, write operations to the primary memory are also stopped and the primary memory is turned off with DRAM power saving modes such as self timed refresh (STR), and the reads and writes are limited to the mirrored memory in the mirrored memory pair. When the primary memory temperature decreases to below the initial temperature threshold, coherency is recovered by writing a coherent copy from the mirrored memory to the primary memory.

An approach is provided in which a subsystem cooling manager detects an increased workload indicator corresponding to a computer subsystem's forthcoming workload requirement. The forthcoming workload requirement corresponds to future computing resources required by the subsystem to support one or more software programs executing on the computer system. The subsystem cooling manager determines that the forthcoming workload requirement exceeds a utilization threshold and in turn, directs one or more cooling systems towards the corresponding subsystem according.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, a method for bank sparing in a 3D memory device that includes detecting, by a memory controller, a first error in the 3D memory device and detecting a second error in a first element in a first rank of the 3D memory device, wherein the first element in the first rank has an associated first chip select. The method also includes sending a command to the 3D memory device to set mode registers in a master logic portion of the 3D memory device that enable a second element to receive communications directed to the first element and wherein the second element is in a second rank of the 3D memory device, wherein the first element and second element are each either a bank or a bank group that comprise a plurality of chips.

Methods and data processing systems for using a buffer to replace failed memory cells in a memory component are provided. Embodiments include determining that a first copy of data stored within a plurality of memory cells of a memory component contains one or more errors; in response to determining that the first copy contains one or more errors, determining whether a backup cache within the buffer contains a second copy of the data; and in response to determining that the backup cache contains the second copy of the data, transferring the second copy from the backup cache to a location within an error data queue (EDQ) within the buffer and updating the buffer controller to use the location within the EDQ instead of the plurality of memory cells within the memory component.
