Chapter 3 Installing and Configuring To ensure you have the correct DIMMs before installation, refer to one of the following for a list of qualified DIMMs: · Technical Reference Label inside the HP Server's side panel · Information Assistant on the HP Server Online Documentation CD-ROM · HP Customer Service CAUTION Use an anti static service kit (3M 8501/8502/8503 or equivalent). This kit includes a static-dissipating work surface, a chassis clip lead, and a wrist strap. Guidelines · The HP Server tc3100 uses only PC 133 (133 MHz) buffered, ECC, SDRAM DIMMs, which are electrically different from the EDO and PC100 SDRAM memory modules used in previous HP Server models. · DIMMs sizes supported are 128 MB, 256 MB, 512 MB, or 1 GB in any combination. · Supported memory capacity ranges from 128 MB to 4 GB maximum (1 GB in each of the 4 DIMM slots). · DIMM sizes may be mixed on the system board and may be loaded in any order. However, HP recommends starting at slot 3 and filling the slots in order with the largest size first: 3, 2, 1, and 0. · Open slots between DIMMs are permitted. · When handling DIMMs, observe anti-static precautions to avoid damage. Installing Additional DIMMs 1. If the server is operating, log off all users, back up files, and power down the server. 2. Disconnect the power cord and any external cables connected to the server. If necessary, label each one to expedite re-assembly. WARNING The power supply will continue to provide standby current to the HP Server until the power cord is disconnected. 3. Open the side panel. NOTE It is not necessary to remove the system board from the HP Server to install the additional DIMM memory. 4. Choose a DIMM slot for the desired DIMM. See Figure 3-13. 24
