NOTE: To avoid damage to the memory carrier extraction handles, HP recommends rotating the handles inward and snapping them into the locked position when servicing the system DIMMs or any time the carrier is out of the chassis. Before replacing the memory carrier, press the button to release the extraction handles. Use the handles to replace the memory carrier into the chassis.

5.To locate the DIMM you need to remove, use Figure 6-15:“8-DIMM Memory Carrier Board

Slot IDs” (page 210), or Figure 6-16:“24-DIMM Memory Carrier Board Slot IDs” (page 211).

6.Lay the memory carrier assembly on side 0 or side 1 so that the memory board containing the DIMMs that require servicing faces upward (Figure 6-13 (page 207)).

7.Remove the memory carrier assembly side cover.

a.Press the release tabs (Figure 6-13 (page 207)) on both sides of the extraction handle release button until the side cover releases from the top center of the assembly.

b.Rotate the side cover slightly to free the tabs from the retaining slots at the base of the assembly (Figure 3-8).

c.Lift the side cover off the assembly.

8.Release the DIMM from the slot.

a.Identify the DIMM you want to remove on the memory board.

b.Push the appropriate extraction levers found on either side of the DIMM slot outward to the open position (Figure 6-17 (page 214)).

9.Remove the DIMM from the slot.

Figure 6-13shows the memory carrier assembly removed from the chassis.

INTEGRITY RX3600 specifications

The HP Integrity RX3600 is a high-performance server designed to address the demanding needs of enterprises that require robust computing capabilities, reliability, and scalability. Part of the HP Integrity server family, the RX3600 is built on the Itanium architecture, which is known for its exceptional processing power and advanced features that support mission-critical applications.

One of the main features of the RX3600 is its capability to handle multiple workloads with ease. The server supports up to 64 GB of RAM, allowing for efficient multitasking and enhanced performance in data-intensive environments. Its modular design also enables organizations to scale up their systems by adding additional memory or processors as needed, making it a flexible choice for growing businesses.

The RX3600 is equipped with HP's Integrity Virtual Machines (VMs), which provide virtualization capabilities that allow businesses to run multiple operating systems and applications on a single physical server. This not only maximizes resource utilization but also simplifies management by reducing the number of physical servers required in the data center.

Another significant characteristic of the RX3600 is its advanced reliability features. The server is designed with fault-tolerant components, including redundant power supplies and cooling systems. This ensures that the server remains operational even in the event of hardware failures. Additionally, HP's Error Correction Code (ECC) memory helps detect and correct data corruption, further enhancing the system's reliability.

For security, the HP Integrity RX3600 includes built-in features such as Secure Boot, which ensures that the server boots using only trusted firmware and software. This protects against unauthorized changes and vulnerabilities that could compromise data integrity.

In terms of connectivity, the RX3600 offers multiple I/O options, including advanced networking capabilities that support high-speed data transfer and improved bandwidth. This is critical for organizations that rely on data-intensive applications and need to maintain seamless connectivity.

Furthermore, the server supports a range of operating systems, including HP-UX and Linux, making it adaptable to various enterprise environments. Its robust performance, reliability, and scalability make the HP Integrity RX3600 an ideal choice for businesses looking to optimize their IT infrastructure and support their critical workloads with confidence.
