Configuring the graphics expansion module for NVDIMMs
After installing NVDIMMs, configure the graphics expansion module for NVDIMMs. For information on configuring settings for
NVDIMMs, see the HPE 16GB NVDIMM User Guide on the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website (http://www.hpe.com/info/
nvdimm-docs).
The graphics expansion module can be configured for NVDIMMs using either of the following:
•
UEFI System Utilities—Use System Utilities through the Remote Console to configure the graphics expansion module for
NVDIMM memory options by pressing the F9 key during POST. For more information about UEFI System Utilities, see the
Hewlett Packard Enterprise website (http://www.hpe.com/info/uefi/docs).
•
iLO RESTful API for HPE iLO 5—For more information about configuring the system for NVDIMMs, see https://
hewlettpackard.github.io/ilo-rest-api-docs/ilo5/.
Removing and replacing an HPE Persistent Memory module
For specific population and configuration information, see the memory population guidelines on the Hewlett Packard
Enterprise website (http://www.hpe.com/docs/memory-population-rules).
To identify the HPE Persistent Memory modules installed in the graphics expansion module, see HPE Persistent Memory
module label identification.
Procedure
1. Observe the following alerts:
CAUTION: Electrostatic discharge can damage electronic components. Be sure you are properly grounded before
beginning this procedure.
CAUTION: Failure to properly handle HPE Persistent Memory modules can damage the component and the system
board connector.
2. Power down the graphics expansion module.
a. Shut down the OS as directed by the OS documentation.
b. To place the graphics expansion module in standby mode, press the Power On/Standby button. When the graphics
expansion module enters standby power mode, the system power LED changes to amber.
c. Disconnect the power cords (rack and tower servers).
3. Remove the graphics expansion module from the frame.
4. Place the graphics expansion module on a flat, level work surface.
5. Remove the access panel.
6. Remove all components necessary to access the DIMM slots.
7. Remove the HPE Persistent Memory module.
