Have a WAE-674 that I am trying to upgrade from 4GB to 8GB.
I followed the Cisco Wide Area Application Engine 7341, 7371 and 674 Hardware Installation Guide for installing memory in a WAE-674.
We installed our 2GB DIMMs into DIMM slots 7 and 10 per the guide.
I repartition the disks using the "disk delete-data-partitions" command and issued a reload.
After the WAE reloads, I only see 4GBs of memory and only DIMMs 7 and 10 appear.
Am I missing a configuration piece on the WAE for 4GB to 8GB?
Below is some snippets from show memory and show hardware.

Hi Matthew,
It looks like you may have bad memory or wrong slots. Try following actions to make sure it is not the HW failure.
1. Place 2 new meomry modules in slot 1 and slot 4. Boot it and see if it shows up 4 GB memory.
2. Now put 2 old memory moduels inslot 7 and slot 10 and boot. Check to see if it shows up 8gb afetr reload.
3. if any of the aboive fails, it is probably a bad memory or motherboard.in that case, please open a TAC case to address the issue.
Regards.
