If you removed memory modules as a part of another procedure, you
might need to replace memory modules. Use the procedure in this section to
perform this task.
If your system is managed by the Hardware Management Console (HMC),
use the HMC to complete the steps for replacing the memory modules in the
server. For instructions, see Replace a part using the Hardware Management Console.
If you do not have an HMC, complete the following steps to replace
memory modules:
If necessary, remove the memory module from its antistatic package.
Ensure that the connector locking tabs are pushed out in the unlocked
position before installing a new memory module.
Attention: Memory
modules are keyed to prevent a memory module from being installed incorrectly.
Note the locations of the key tabs within the memory module connector before
attempting to the memory module.
Carefully grasp the memory module along two edges and align the
connector.
Insert the memory card firmly into the connector.
Note: If
you are adding new memory modules, ensure that the memory modules are balanced
correctly. See Table 1.
Secure the memory module with the locking tabs A located
at each end of the memory module connector, as shown in the following figure.
