Gateway 7450R Server System Manual
Closing the case
Close the case as soon as you finish installing or removing components so
that dust and dirt do not collect inside the server and to maintain the thermal
characteristics of the server interior.
Replacing the top panel
You must replace the top panel before you can operate the server. If you do
not, a system intrusion event is logged by the system management hardware.
Be careful not to pinch any cables between the internal components and the
top panel as you replace it.
To replace the top panel:
1
Place the top panel on the top of the chassis approximately 3/4-inch back
from the front of the server.
2
Slide the panel toward the front of the chassis 3/4-inch, securing it in
place.
3 Replace the two thumbscrews you removed earlier.
Caution Operating the server with the top panel removed adversely
affects the thermal characteristics of the server interior and
can result in overheating of and possible damage to the
hard drives or the processors.
