Removing a DIMM

The very low profile (VLP) dual-inline memory module (DIMM) is a tier 1 CRU. You can remove it
yourself. If IBM removes a tier 1 CRU at your request, you will be charged for the removal. The low
profile (LP) DIMM is a tier 2 CRU. You can remove it yourself or request IBM to remove it, at no
additional charge, under the type of warranty service that is designated for the compute node.

Procedure
1. Read the Safety topic and the "Installation guidelines" on page 35.
2. Shut down the operating system on all partitions of the compute node, turn off the compute node,
and remove the compute node from the IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis. See "Removing the
compute node from an IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis" on page 37.
3. Carefully lay the compute node on a flat, static-protective surface, with the cover side up.
4. Open and remove the compute node cover. See "Removing the compute node cover" on page 39.
