See “Supported DIMMs” on page 4 for additional information about the type of
memory that is compatible with the blade server, and the rules that control which
sizes and speeds you can use in the blade server. Figure 15 shows how to open the
retaining clip to install the memory module.
To install a DIMM, complete the following steps:
1.
Read “Safety” on page v and the “Installation guidelines” on page 239.
2.
Read the documentation that comes with the DIMMs.
3.
Shut down the operating system, turn off the blade server, and remove the
blade server from the BladeCenter unit. See “Removing the blade server from
a BladeCenter unit” on page 241.
4.
Carefully lay the blade server on a flat, static-protective surface, with the
cover side up.
5.
Open and remove the blade server cover. See “Removing the blade server
cover” on page 244.
6.
Locate the DIMM connectors on the system board. See the illustration in
“System-board connectors” on page 9. Determine the connector into which
you will install the DIMM.
7.
Touch the static-protective package that contains the part to any
unpainted
metal surface on the BladeCenter unit or any
unpainted
metal surface on any
other grounded rack component; then, remove the part from its package.
