b. Beginning with the primary bank of DIMMs, return one
bank of DIMMs to the server at a time, restarting the
server each time, until the beep code error returns.
See “Replacing a DIMM” on page 49.
c. Replace one pair of DIMMs at a time in the failing
bank with an identical pair of known good DIMMs,
restarting the server after each pair, until the beep
code error returns. See “Replacing a DIMM” on page
49.
d. Replace one DIMM at a time in the failing pair with an
identical known good DIMM, restarting the server after
each DIMM, to identify the failed DIMM. See
“Removing a DIMM” on page 48 and “Replacing a
DIMM” on page 49. If the beep code error remains
after you have replaced both DIMMs, go to step 4c.
e. Repeat steps 3b through 3d until you have checked all
memory banks.
4. Replace the following components one at a time, in the
order shown, restarting the server each time:
a. DIMMs, see “Removing a DIMM” on page 48 and
“Replacing a DIMM” on page 49.
b. Microprocessor/memory card 4, 3, 2; then, 1. See
“Removing a microprocessor/memory card” on page
51 and “Replacing a microprocessor/memory card” on
