Use this procedure only for new
HPE Persistent Memory module installations. If you are migrating this
HPE Persistent Memory module from another
system, see the
HPE Persistent Memory User Guide on the
Hewlett Packard Enterprise website (https://www.hpe.com/info/persistentmemory-docs).
Prerequisites
Before beginning the installation, review the memory population guidelines on the
Hewlett Packard Enterprise website (https://www.hpe.com/docs/memory-population-rules).
Before you perform this procedure, make sure that you have the following items available:
Procedure
-
Observe the following alerts:
CAUTION: DIMMs and
HPE Persistent Memory modules are keyed for proper alignment. Align notches on the DIMM or
HPE Persistent Memory module with the corresponding notches in the slot before installing the component. Do not force the DIMM or
HPE Persistent Memory module into the slot. When installed properly, not all DIMMs or
HPE Persistent Memory modules will face in the same direction.
CAUTION: Electrostatic discharge can damage electronic components. Be sure you are properly grounded before beginning this procedure.
CAUTION: Failure to properly handle
HPE Persistent Memory modules can damage the component and the system board connector.
IMPORTANT:
Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends that you implement best practice configurations for high availability (HA) such as clustered configurations.
