Open the retaining clips and, if necessary, remove any existing DIMM. 6. Touch the static-protective package containing the DIMM to any unpainted metal surface on the server. Then remove the new DIMM from the package. 7. Gently open the retaining clip on each end of the DIMM slot. Turn the DIMM so that the pins align correctly with the connector. 8. Insert the DIMM into the connector. Firmly press the DIMM straight down into the connector by applying pressure on both ends of the DIMM simultaneously. The retaining clips snap into the locked position when the DIMM is firmly seated in the connector. If there is a gap between the DIMM and the retaining clips, the DIMM has not been correctly installed. Open the retaining clips, remove the DIMM, and then reinsert it. DIMM 1 DIMM 2 DIMM 3 DIMM 4 9. If you have other options to install or remove, do so now. 10. Replace the support bracket (see "Removing and installing the support bracket" on page 38). 11. Replace the side cover (see "Replacing the bezel" on page 66). 12. Reconnect the external cables and power cords. Turn on the attached devices, and turn on the server. 56 IBM xSeries 225 Types 8649: Hardware Maintenance Manual and Troubleshooting Guide
