Preparing the 9040-MR9 system for operation after removing and replacing a memory module

To prepare the system for operation after you remove and replace a memory module, complete the steps in this procedure.

1. Ensure that you have the electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap on and that the ESD clip is plugged into a ground jack or connected to an unpainted metal surface. If not, do so now.
2. To insert the memory riser, complete the following steps:
   1. Ensure the release latches (A) are fully open to a 90 degree angle as shown in the following figure.
   2. Align the memory riser with the connector.
   3. Press the memory riser firmly into the connector.
   4. Rotate the release latches into the closed position, and press the release latches down to ensure that the memory riser is fully seated into the connector.

   

3. Replace the service access cover.
   1. Lower the cover (A) onto the system unit. Ensure that the cover alignment pins (C) on each side of the cover fit into the matching slots in the chassis.
   2. Slide the cover (A) onto the system unit. Ensure that the tabs (D) tuck under the mesh along the front opening of the chassis.
   3. Close the release latches (B) by pushing it in the direction that is shown in the following figure.

   

4. Complete the following steps to place the system in the operating position.
   1. Unlock the blue rail safety latches (A) by pushing them towards the front as shown in the following figure.
   2. Push the system unit back into the rack as shown in the following figure until both release latches of the system unit lock into position. Ensure that any cables do not catch or bind as you push in the system.

   Note: Slide the system unit slowly into the rack to ensure that your fingers do not get caught in the side rails.

   

5. Push the system unit (B) back into the rack until both release latches of the system unit lock into position.
   Secure the cable management arm with hook-and-loop fasteners around the back side of the cable management arm, but not around the cables.
6. Using your labels, reconnect all of the external cables that plug into the PCIe adapters.
7. Using your labels, reconnect the power cords (A) to the system unit as shown in the following figure.
   Fasten the power cords to the system by using the hook-and-loop fasteners (B) as shown in the following figure.

   

8. Start the system. For instructions, see Starting a system.
9. Turn off the identify LED. For instructions, see Deactivating an identify LED.
10. Verify the installed part.
    • If you replaced the part because of a service action, verify the installed part. For instructions, see Verifying a repair.
    • If you installed the part for any other reason, verify the installed part. For instructions, see Verifying the installed part.
