Installing DIMMs
Please refer to the “Memory Installation Guidelines” earlier in this chapter before
installing the DIMMs. To install DIMMs, complete the following procedure:
CAUTION The memory modules are sensitive to static electricity and can
be easily damaged by improper handling. Do the following
when handling the accessory kit:
• Leave the memory module in the anti-static container until
you are ready to install it.
• Always use an anti-static wrist strap and a grounding mat.
• Before you remove a memory module from the anti-static
container, touch a grounded, unpainted metal surface on
the HP Server to discharge static electricity.
1. If the system is already installed and working, power down the system.
Refer to Chapter 1, "Controls, Ports, and Indicators."
WARNING The power supply will continue to provide standby current to
the HP Server until the power cable is disconnected.
2. Disconnect the power cables and all external cables.
If necessary, label each one to aid in the re-assembly of the unit.
3. Remove the top cover from the HP Server.
Refer to Chapter 2, "Opening and Closing the HP Server."
4. Observe safety and ESD precautions when working with DIMMs.
5. Expose the memory boards by removing the Processor/Memory complex
as described in “Removing the Processor/Memory Complex” in Chapter 5.
CAUTION DIMM slots on the memory module must be installed only in
certain configurations. The number next to each DIMM slot
corresponds to installation sequence. DIMMs must be
installed by groups of four and must be inserted in the
indicated sequence.
