10. Install the air baffle over the DIMM connector.
Attention:
v Install the air baffles with the arrow indicating air flow direction pointing to
the rear of the compute node.
v To maintain proper system cooling, do not operate the compute node
without air baffles installed over the DIMM connectors.
What to do next
After you install the DIMM, complete the following steps:
1. Install the cover onto the compute node (see "Installing the compute node
cover" on page 500 for instructions).
2. Install the compute node into the chassis (see "Installing a compute node in a
chassis" on page 490 for instructions).
Removing the front handle
Use this information to remove the front handle.
Before you begin
Before you remove the front handles, complete the following steps:
1. Read "Safety" on page v and "Installation guidelines" on page 487.
2. If the compute node is installed in an IBM Flex System chassis, remove it (see
"Removing a compute node from a chassis" on page 489 for instructions).
3. Carefully lay the compute node on a flat, static-protective surface with the
cover side down, orienting the compute node with the bezel pointing toward
you.
