B737 CL Fuel boost pump main

Hi,
I was checking out on my FCOM about the MEL 28-01 on the fuel boost pump main tank AFT PUMP. It says that a minimum fuel quantity of 1,134kg should be maintained in associated tank.

When it comes to fuel planning and regarding the alternate field,
1.should you get there with a minimum of 1,134kg in each wing, ie 2,268kg (which is more than the 30 min of the final reserve) and the aft fuel pump is always submerged.
or
2.should you land at your alternate with a minimum of 30 min (final reserve) + 1,134kg in each wing (which means if I had to use the final reserve, I would still have the main tanks with at least 1,134kg each)?
