9-24 Upgrading Your Server
DIMM
Install additional DIMM (Dual Inline Memory Module) in the DIMM sockets on the mother board in the server. The mother
board features 12 DIMM sockets .
NOTE: Up to 96GB of memory (8GB DIMM × 12) can be installed. (The factory-installed
DIMMs need to be replaced in this case.) Two DIMMs of 1GB are factory-installed in
CPU1-DIMM1 and CPU1-DIMM2 (in standard configuration).
IMPORTANT:
The DIMM is extremely sensitive to static electricity. Make sure to touch the metal frame of
the server to discharge static electricity from your body before handling the DIMM. Do not
touch the DIMM terminals or on-board parts by a bare hand or place the DIMM directly on the
desk. For static notes, see the section "Anti-static Measures" described earlier.
Make sure to use the DIMM authorized by Bull. Installing a third-party DIMM may cause a
failure of the DIMM as well as the server. Repair of the server due to failures or damage
resulted from installing such a board will be charged.
Purchase DIMMs of the following models:
– Additional 1-GB memory board
– Additional 2-GB memory board
– Additional 4-GB memory board
– Additional 8-GB memory board
