Installing Memory Modules
You need to install a new memory module to replace a faulty module or when you upgrade
a memory bank. You may need to remove memory modules in order to access the
memory slots for any new modules (see the earlier section, "Removing Memory
Modules"). To install a memory module, refer to Figure 5-4 and perform these steps:
1.
Tilt the connecting end of the module and press gently on the module so it slips over
the two posts at each end of the slot (see Figure 5-4).
2.
Reinstall any memory modules that you removed for access.
3.
Replace the system panels following the procedures in "Replacing the System Unit
Panels."
4.
Test the memory configuration using these commands:
>>> show memory
>>> memory
For more information, refer to the section on "Memory" in Chapter 6.
