Memory Replacement Guidelines
DIMM and memory board installation, removal, and replacement procedures can be either
hot-plug or non-hot-plug procedures, depending on how the server is configured.
Note: By default, the NAS e7000 v2 server is configured for advanced ECC memory.
■ You cannot perform hot-plug procedures when the system is configured for:
— Advanced ECC memory
— Online spare memory
— Single-board mirrored memory
■ You can only perform a hot-plug replacement procedure when the server is configured for
hot-plug mirrored memory, enabling you to replace failed or degraded DIMMs without
powering down the server.
The replacement procedures in this section apply to both hot-plug and non-hot-plug memory
replacement, except as noted.
Caution: Be sure to power down the server when performing these procedures in a server
that is not configured for hot-plug mirrored memory.
Observe the following warnings when performing a hot-plug replacement procedure.
WARNING: Always comply with all electrostatic and thermal guidelines to prevent bodily
injury and ensure a properly functioning system when performing hot-plug operations. For
detailed information, refer to “About this Guide” in this guide.
