1.
Before you begin, read “Safety” on page v and “Installation guidelines” on

2.
If the blade server is installed in a BladeCenter unit, remove it (see “Removing
the blade server from the BladeCenter unit” on page 52).
3.
Remove the blade server cover (see “Removing the blade server cover” on page
55).
4.
If an optional expansion unit is installed, remove the expansion unit (see
“Removing an optional expansion unit” on page 57).
5.
Locate the DIMM connectors (see “Blade server connectors” on page 14).
Determine which DIMM you want to remove from the blade server.
Attention:
To avoid breaking the retaining clips or damaging the DIMM
connectors, handle the clips gently.
Note:
To access DIMM connector ten through eighteen, remove the front bezel
(see “Removing the bezel assembly” on page 59).
6.
Move the retaining clips on the ends of the DIMM connector to the open
position by pressing the retaining clips away from the center of the DIMM
connector.
7.
Using your fingers, pull the DIMM out of the connector.
8.
Install a DIMM or DIMM filler in each empty DIMM connector (see “Installing
a memory module” on page 64).
Note:
A DIMM or DIMM filler must occupy each DIMM socket before the
blade server is turned on.
9.
If you are instructed to return the DIMM, follow all packaging instructions, and
use any packaging materials for shipping that are supplied to you.
