Steps
1. Stop the system using the
system poweroff
command to allow the proper shut down of the file system and other system
components. The power down process takes approximately five minutes to complete. The
system poweroff
command
immediately turns the front panel blue LED to amber, and is complete when the front panel LED turns off.
NOTE:
The system fans still run, and NIC port LEDs still flash after running the
system poweroff
command.
2. Open the cable management arms.
3. Label all cables connecting to PCIe riser 1 as to their connection location. Taking a photograph for reference is also helpful
for re-connecting the cables.
4. Disconnect the AC power cords from the rear of the system.
5. Disconnect all network cables from PCIe riser 1.
6. Disconnect all SAS cables from PCIe riser 1.
