Install an E3.S non-hot-swap CMM

Follow the instructions in this section to install an E3.S non-hot-swap CXL memory module (CMM).

About this task

Attention

  • Read Installation Guidelines and Safety inspection checklist to ensure that you work safely.

  • Power off the server and peripheral devices and disconnect the power cords and all external cables. See Power off the server.

  • Prevent exposure to static electricity, which might lead to system halt and loss of data, by keeping static-sensitive components in their static-protective packages until installation, and handling these devices with an electrostatic-discharge wrist strap or other grounding system.

Procedure

  1. If the E3.S bezel is installed, remove the E3.S bezel.

    1. Press the button on the E3.S bezel to disengage the cover.
    2. Remove the E3.S bezel from the server.
  2. If a bay filler is installed in the bay, pull the release lever on the filler and slide it out of the server.

    1. Make sure that the handle is in the open position. Then, align the CMM with the guide rails in the bay and gently push the CMM into the bay until the CMM stops.
    2. Rotate the handle to the fully closed position until the handle latch clicks.
  4. If there are additional CMMs to install, do so now; if any of the bays is left empty, fill it with a bay filler.

  5. Check the CMM LEDs to verify that the drive is operating correctly. See E3.S CMM LEDs.

    • If the amber fault LED is lit continuously, the CMM is malfunctioning and must be replaced.

    • If the white health LED is flashing, the CMM is functioning.

  6. Depending on the configuration, remove the inner plate of the E3.S bezel if necessary.
    Note
    • When the space to be covered is with E3.S 2T cage installed, the inner plate of the E3.S bezel should be removed.
    • For proper cooling and airflow, when the space to be covered is without E3.S 2T cage installed, the inner plate of the E3.S bezel is required.
    1. Press the tabs to disengage the inner plate.
    2. Rotate the inner plate away from the bezel to remove it.

  7. Reinstall the E3.S bezel back to the server.

    1. Insert the bezel into the slot.
    2. Rotate the bezel toward the server until it clicks into place.
    Important

    The E3.S bezel is designed for proper EMI integrity of the server. The server models with E3.S chassis should always operate with the E3.S bezel installed for every E3.S slot.
