■ "Early-Production Slide Rail and CMA Information" on page G-1 (X4500) 8. Update the FRU information using servicetool. See Section 3.6, "Servicetool FRU Update Procedure" on page 3-8. ▼ To Remove Memory Modules (DIMMs) (CRU) This section describes how to remove and replace the server's dual inline memory modules (DIMMs). Note - This component is a CRU and can be replaced by anyone. Caution - DIMMs are extremely sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). To avoid damaging them, use the following antistatic precautions: 1) Always wear an antistatic strap when handling DIMMs. 2) Handle DIMMs by the edges only. 3) Place DIMMs in antistatic containers for storage. 4) Place DIMMs on an antistatic mat when working with them. Note - For optimum performance, all DIMMs controlled by a given CPU should be the same capacity and all single-rank or dual-rank. Mixed configurations are supported, but could result in lower memory performance. Note that all supported 4GB and 8GB DIMMs are dual-rank. For 1GB and 2GB DIMMs, you can identify the type by counting the DRAMs; single-rank DIMMs have 18 DRAMs, while dual-rank DIMMs have 36 DRAMs. 1.

To Remove Memory Modules (DIMMs) (CRU)
This section describes how to remove and replace the server’s dual inline memory
modules (DIMMs).
Note –
This component is a CRU and can be replaced by anyone.
Caution –
DIMMs are extremely sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). To avoid
damaging them, use the following antistatic precautions: 1) Always wear an
antistatic strap when handling DIMMs. 2) Handle DIMMs by the edges only. 3) Place
DIMMs in antistatic containers for storage. 4) Place DIMMs on an antistatic mat
when working with them.
Note –
For optimum performance, all DIMMs controlled by a given CPU should be
the same capacity and all single-rank or dual-rank. Mixed configurations are
supported, but could result in lower memory performance. Note that all supported
4GB and 8GB DIMMs are dual-rank. For 1GB and 2GB DIMMs, you can identify the
type by counting the DRAMs; single-rank DIMMs have 18 DRAMs, while dual-rank
DIMMs have 36 DRAMs.
