Servicing DIMMs

This section describes how to service dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs).
DIMMs are replaceable components that require you to power off the server before servicing.
For more information about replaceable components, see
Replaceable
Caution:
These procedures require that you handle components that are sensitive to
electrostatic discharge. This sensitivity can cause the components to fail. To avoid
damage, ensure that you follow antistatic practices as described in
Discharge
Caution:
Ensure that all power is removed from the server before removing or installing
DIMMs, or damage to the DIMMs might occur. You must disconnect all power
cables from the system before performing these procedures.
The topics and procedures in this section provide information to assist you when replacing a
DIMM or upgrading DIMMs.
