Remove a Memory Riser

This is a cold-service procedure that can be performed by a customer. Power down the server completely before performing this procedure.


Caution

Caution  -  This procedure requires that you handle components that are sensitive to ESD which can cause server components to fail.



Note -  Your server could include a memory riser that is secured with a flat-head screw. If that is the case, use a No. 1 flat-blade screwdriver to service that memory riser.
  1. Prepare for servicing.

    See Preparing for Service.

  2. Identify the memory riser with the faulty DIMM by pressing the Remind button on the air divider as shown in the following figure.

    • If the memory riser Service Action Required LED is off, all DIMMs on this riser are operating properly.

    • If the memory riser Service Action Required LED is on (amber), one or more of the DIMMs installed on this riser is faulty or misconfigured.

  3. Loosen the captive screw that secures the memory riser to the chassis.
