NOTE For proper DIMM configurations, see the HP Integrity BL60p Server Blade User Service Guide.
The memory subsystem supports chip spare functionality. Chip spare enables an entire SDRAM chip on a
DIMM to be bypassed (logically replaced) in the event that a multi-bit error is detected on that SDRAM.
In order to use the chip spare functionality, use only DIMMs built with the same HP part numbers, and these
DIMMs must be loaded in quads.
Install additional memory DIMMs into the HP Integrity BL60p server blade by doing the following:
Step 1. Locate the DIMM slots on the server blade system board. See Figure 3-16.
NOTE The server blade ships with at least two DIMMs installed in slots 0A and 0B.

NOTE The airflow guide shown in Figure 3-16 is clear for illustration purposes only.
The airflow guide included with your server is black.
Step 2. Ensure the DIMM slot latches are open.
CAUTION Use only HP low profile (1.2 in.) DIMMs. DIMMs from other sources may adversely
affect data integrity.
DIMMs do not seat fully if turned the wrong way.
Always install DIMMs in identical pairs.
Step 3. Insert DIMM in slot and push down firmly until the latches click shut. See Figure 3-17.
