If you are preparing a rack model, you might
want to install it in the rack first before installing
options. See “Installing a server in a rack
enclosure” on page 99 for instructions on
installing the rack model.
1. Unlock and open the server door, if any. For
convenience during these procedures, you might
prefer to remove the door completely.
a. Locate the flange on the top edge of the front
door, near the hinge.
b. Press the flange downward while pressing out on
the door; then, lift the door off the hinge. Set the
door aside.
Caution
When unlocked, the server door will not support
the weight of the server. To avoid personal
injury, be sure to remove or lock the server door
before moving or lifting the server.
2. Remove any media (diskettes or CDs) from the
drives, and then turn off all attached devices and the
server.
3. If you have a tower model, continue with “Preparing a
tower model” on page 126.
If you have a rack model installed in a rack enclosure,
go to “Preparing a rack model” on page 128.
