maintained as a spare, only 75% of the installed memory is usable. For example, if six
2 GB DIMMs are installed, only four are actively used (the other two are used as spares),
so the maximum usable memory for this configuration would be 8 GB.
A DIMM fault LED adjacent to the DIMM slot will light orange to indicate the failed
memory module.
To install or replace memory:
1 Follow the instructions in “Preventing static electricity discharge” on page 37. Make
sure that you turn off the server, then unplug the power cord and all other cables
connected to the server.
2 Follow the instructions in “Opening the server case” on page 38.
3 Pull the plastic tabs away from the sides of the memory module slot. If you are
replacing a memory module, lift the old module out of the slot.
4 Align the notch on the new module with the notch in the memory module slot and
press the module firmly into the slot. The tabs on the sides of the memory slot should
secure the memory module automatically.
5 Follow the instructions in “Closing the server case” on page 39.
