1.Unlatch the cover release lever on the top cover and remove the memory carrier assembly cover. See “Removing the Memory Carrier Assembly Cover” (page 57).

NOTE: You do not need to fully remove the top cover to service this component; however, the top cover release lever must be open.

2.Press the button located in the center of the memory carrier assembly to release the extraction handles (Figure 3-7).

CAUTION: Manipulate the extraction handles with care. Failure to observe this caution can result in damage to the extraction handles.

3.Pull up on the extraction handles and rotate them outward 90 degrees (Figure 3-7). The handles latch into the open position with an audible click.

4.Lift the memory carrier assembly out of the chassis (Figure 3-7).

NOTE: To avoid damage to the handles, HP recommends rotating the handles inward and snapping them into place 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.

Replacing the Memory Carrier Assembly

CAUTION: Ensure that the processor board assembly is fully seated before you replace the memory carrier assembly. The processor board assembly access door must be flush with the front bezel.

To replace the memory carrier assembly, follow these steps:

1.Ensure the extraction handles are positioned in the outward, unlocked position.

2.Align the memory carrier assembly with the front and rear chassis guide slots.

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.
