Memory DIMMs, however, must be installed in matched (size and speed) quads. Refer to “Memory
DIMMs” on page 492 for labeling of the processor card and instructions on memory DIMM removal and
installation. Do not, however, replace the covers as directed while troubleshooting this problem. Memory
DIMM quads can only be installed in one of the following two memory DIMM slot combinations:
v
1, 3, 6 and 8
v
2, 4, 5 and 7
There is no requirement that memory DIMM slots 1, 3, 6 and 8 be populated before memory DIMM slots
2, 4, 5 and 7.

Step 1240-1
1. Record the error code and any location code(s) that sent you to this map.
2. Go to the service processor menus and disable memory repeat gard if it is not already disabled.
3. Turn off the power. Remove the power cord.
4. Remove and reinstall the processor cards.
5. Reattach the power cord. Wait for OK to display in the operator panel.
6. Turn on the power. Attempt to boot to the SMS menus. (The system may stop with an 8-digit error
code before it reaches the SMS menus.)
7. Power off the system using the white button. After the OK displays in the operator panel, look at the
memory configuration/deconfiguration menu.
Are any DIMMs deconfigured or does the error code recorded earlier in this step still appear?
No If any FRU location codes were recorded earlier in this step, there may be an intermitent error.
Replace all FRUs with location codes recorded earlier in this step. If no FRU location codes were
recorded earlier in this step, reseating the processor cards must have fixed the problem.
Enable memory repeat gard if necessary.
