Removing And Replacing Memory Modules - IBM Power System 8335-GTW Manual

Removing and replacing memory modules in the 8335-GTW or 8335-GTX system
To remove and replace memory modules, complete the steps in this procedure.
Before you begin
Power off the system and place it in the service position. For instructions, see "Preparing the 8335-GTC,
8335-GTG, 8335-GTH, 8335-GTW, or 8335-GTX system to remove and replace internal parts" on page
198.
Procedure
1. Attach the electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap.
The ESD wrist strap must be connected to an unpainted metal surface until the service procedure is
completed, and if applicable, until the service access cover is replaced.
Attention:
• Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap to the front ESD jack, to the rear ESD jack,
or to an unpainted metal surface of your hardware to prevent the electrostatic discharge from
damaging your hardware.
• When you use an ESD wrist strap, follow all electrical safety procedures. An ESD wrist strap is
used for static control. It does not increase or decrease your risk of receiving electric shock
when using or working on electrical equipment.
• If you do not have an ESD wrist strap, just prior to removing the product from ESD packaging
and installing or replacing hardware, touch an unpainted metal surface of the system for a
minimum of 5 seconds. If at any point in this service process you move away from the
system, it is important to again discharge yourself by touching an unpainted metal surface for
at least 5 seconds before you continue with the service process.
Remove:
2. Remove the air baffles (A) and (B) as shown in Figure 93 on page 103.
Carefully move the baffles around the hoses.
