Installing a DIMM
CAUTION: To avoid damage to the hard drives, memory, and other system components, the air
baffle, drive blanks, and access panel must be installed when the server is powered up.
1. Power down the server (on page 22 ).
2. Extend the server from the rack (on page 22 ).
3. Remove the access panel (on page 23 ).
4. Remove the air baffle.
5. Open the DIMM slot latches.
6. Install the DIMM.
7. Install the air baffle (" Remove the air baffle " on page 27 ).
8. Install the access panel (on page 24 ).
If you are installing DIMMs in mirrored or lock-step configuration, configure this mode in RBSU (" HP
ROM-Based Setup Utility " on page 66 ).
For more information about LEDs and troubleshooting failed DIMMs, see "Systems Insight Display LED
combinations (on page 10 )."
Hot-plug SAS hard drive options
When adding hard drives to the server, observe the following general guidelines:
• The system automatically sets all device numbers.
• If only one hard drive is used, install it in the bay with the lowest device number.
• Drives should be the same capacity to provide the greatest storage space efficiency when drives are
grouped together into the same drive array.
