Slate blue denotes serviceable parts, and port denotes hot-pluggable parts.
Server Blade Preparation
To service any internal server blade component, power down the server blade and remove it
from the server blade enclosure.
CAUTION:
Electrostatic discharge can damage electronic components. Be sure you are
properly grounded before beginning any installation procedure. For more information, refer to
the “Electrostatic Discharge Information” section in this chapter.
System power in server blades does not completely shut off with the front panel power switch
or Integrated Lights-Out (iLO) Virtual Power Button feature. The function toggles between
on and standby modes, rather than on and off. The standby position removes power from
most electronics and the drives, but portions of the power supply and some internal circuitry
remain active.
