Zusammenfassung:A computer-implemented method includes refreshing a set of memory channels in a memory system substantially simultaneously, each memory channel refreshing a rank that is distinct from each of the other ranks being refreshed. Further, the method includes marking a memory channel from the set of memory channels as being unavailable for the rank being refreshed in the memory channel. In one or more examples, the method further includes blocking a fetch command to the memory channel for the rank being refreshed in the memory channel.
