We have around 200 servers now and all of them are HP. Some of the boxes are started to crash because of the RAM. Is there a live time for RAM?

Not as such, generally with RAM it's either DOA or works - what you might be finding is that a certain batch has degraded over time though (bad solders or the such).

Has their been any environmental change to the systems - increased heat/ humidity?

Thank you. I believe it is because of the heat. You were right.

Hence, memory was good.
