Server blades with a PCI I/O controller should be fitted in the middle of
the basic unit (slots 5 and 6) to keep the cable bend radius as large as
possible.
7.2
Adding a Server Blade to the Basic Unit
Depending on the desired configuration, the system can be upgraded with up to
10 server blades.
V
CAUTION!
●
Read the safety information and the information on handling electro-
static-sensitive components in the
section “Components With Elec-
trostatic-Sensitive Devices” on page 25
.
●
Beware of energy hazards on the plug-in contacts of the midplane. A
short circuit on these connections can lead to damage to the system.
Removing the Dummy Module
All unoccupied slots in the basic unit are fitted with dummy modules to ensure
that the electromagnetic emission properties of the system are observed and
that the system components are properly cooled.
If you want to add a server blade, you must first remove the dummy module from
the corresponding slot.
