Removing and Replacing the Cisco ASR 1001-X Router DIMM Memory Module
Perform the following steps before you begin the process of removing and replacing a DIMM memory module:
•
Use an ESD-preventive wrist strap.
•
Back up the data that you want to save.
•
Remove the power supplies before you remove the chassis top cover.
