Install FB-DIMMs

---

Caution  - Ensure that all power is removed from the server before removing or installing FB-DIMMs or damage to the FB-DIMMs might occur. You must disconnect the power cables from the system before performing this procedure.

1. Unpackage the replacement FB-DIMMs and place them on an antistatic mat.

   Tip  - See FB-DIMM Configuration Reference for information about configuring the FB-DIMMs.

2. Ensure that the ejector tabs are in the open position.
3. Line up the replacement FB-DIMM with the connector (Inserting the FB-DIMM Into the Slot).

   Align the FB-DIMM notch with the key in the connector. This ensures that the FB-DIMM is oriented correctly.

4. Push the FB-DIMM into the connector until the ejector tabs lock the FB-DIMM in place.

   If the FB-DIMM does not easily seat into the connector, verify that the orientation of the FB-DIMM is as shown in Inserting the FB-DIMM Into the Slot. If the orientation is reversed, damage to the FB-DIMM might occur.

5. Repeat Step 2 through Step 4 until all replacement FB-DIMMs are installed.
6. Consider your next step:

   • If you installed FB-DIMMs as part of another procedure, return to that procedure.

   • If you are to only install FB-DIMMs go to Step 7.
