Page 30: Dimm Numbering
HP ProLiant BL25p Server Blade User Guide Certain configuration requirements exist with single- and dual-rank DIMMs that allow the architecture to optimize performance. A dual-rank DIMM is similar to having two separate DIMMs on the same module. Although only a single DIMM module, a dual-rank DIMM acts as if it were two separate DIMMs.
Page 31: Installing Dimms
DIMM Slots Installing DIMMs To install the component: 1. Power down the server blade (on page 18). 2. Remove the server blade (on page 18). 3. Open the DIMM slot latches. 4. Install the DIMM. To remove DIMMs, reverse the installation procedure. For DIMM slots 1 and 2, remove the air baffle, if necessary.
