3.4 Disassembling the novascale BL465 complex
If the BL465 complex came preassembled, you must disassemble it to add components to
each of the blade servers in the BL465 complex.
Note This procedure assumes that you are disassembling a BL465 complex to install components
in each of the blade servers but that you will assemble the blade server back into a BL465
complex. If you are disassembling the s BL465 complex to use the blade servers as
independent, stand-alone blade servers, see the
Problem Determination and Service Guide
.
To disassemble a BL465 complex, complete the following steps.
1. Before you begin, read the safety information that begins on page vii and Installation
guidelines on page 23.
2. Remove the cover from the topmost node (see Removing the blade server cover on
page 26 for instructions).
3. Stand the blade servers upright on a clean, flat work surface, with the 2-node
scalability card facing up.
4. Release the lower handles (rotate the lower handles down) to allow the blade servers
to sit flat on the work surface.
