HP Netserver LXr 8000 Memory Upgrade Guide

• When removing banks of DIMMs from a system with two memory

boards, make sure that both boards have identical DIMM

configurations when you finish. (But if you are reducing the

system to its minimum memory configuration, four DIMMs, put

all four DIMMs on the primary (right) board and leave the other

board empty.)

See “Memory Configuration Guidelines” for DIMM placement

guidelines.

Follow these steps to remove a bank of four DIMMs:

1. Power down the HP NetServer. See Chapter 2 of the HP

NetServer LXr 8000 Installation Guide for details.

2. Remove the HP NetServer’s front bezel. See Chapter 3 of the HP

NetServer LXr 8000 Installation Guide for details.

3. Remove the memory board. See "Removing the Memory Board."

4. Determine which bank of DIMMs you wish to remove.

5. Open the retaining clips of the first DIMM just enough so that you

can lift the DIMM’s top edge away from the clips.

6. Lift the DIMM completely away from the socket.

7. Place the DIMM in its anti-static container.

8. Repeat steps 5 through 7 for the other three DIMMs in the bank.
