Hot-Adding Memory - HP DL760 - ProLiant - 1 GB RAM User Manual

Hot-Adding Memory

For the hot-add feature to work on the ProLiant DL760 G2 server, the operating
system must have driver support. Refer to "Installing HP Drivers and Utilities" in
Chapter 8 for details on installing HP software. HP recommends having all DIMMs
that will be added available before beginning this procedure.
CAUTION: A redundant memory configuration is required when performing Hot Plug
RAID Memory functions.

IMPORTANT: The ProLiant DL760 G2 server does not support hot-removal of DIMMs.
IMPORTANT: You cannot perform a hot-add of memory if only four memory cartridges are
installed. The system must have a redundant memory configuration (five cartridges online and
error free) before the removal of any memory cartridge is permitted.
HP ProLiant DL760 Generation 2 Server User Guide
If all five memory cartridges are online and error free, any memory cartridge can
be removed.
If one of the five memory cartridges requires attention, only that memory
cartridge can be removed.
If two or more memory cartridges require attention and are online (cartridge
power LED is illuminated), no cartridge can be removed while the system is
online. An audible alarm will sound if any cartridge is unlocked.
