Installing a DIMM 

The server supports up to 24 DIMMs. To install a DIMM: 

1.

 

Power down the server (on page 

23

). 

2.

 

Remove all power: 

a.

 

Disconnect each power cord from the power source. 

b.

 

Disconnect each power cord from the server. 

3.

 

Extend the server from the rack (on page 

23

). 

4.

 

Remove the access panel (on page 

24

). 

5.

 

Remove the air baffle (on page 

32

). 

6.

 

Open the DIMM slot latches. 

7.

 

Install the DIMM. 

 

8.

 

Install the access panel (on page 

25

). 

9.

 

Install the server into the rack ("

Installing the server into the rack

" on page 

38

). 

10.

 

Connect each power cord to the server. 

11.

 

Connect each power cord to the power source. 

12.

 

Power up the server (on page 

23

). 

Use RBSU ("

HP ROM-Based Setup Utility

" on page 

104

) to configure the memory mode. 

For more information about LEDs and troubleshooting failed DIMMs, see "Systems Insight Display LED 

combinations (on page 

12

)." 

 

Hot-plug 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.
