Replacing a PCI Adapter Cassette:
Attention: Perform this procedure only when you are instructed to from “Removing a Non-Hot-Pluggable
PCI Adapter” on page 51 or “Hot-Pluggable PCI Adapter” on page 52. Before you replace the PCI adapter
cassette, check the following:
v
Before installing a PCI adapter cassette in the system, an adapter or blank filler must be installed in
each PCI adapter cassette and the top cover for the system must be installed.
v Check the adapter in the cassette that you are about to install, and make sure that the adapter is held
firmly on all four corners by the retaining arms and ratchet clips.
v Review the procedures beginning with “PCI Adapter or Blank Filler Removal from a Cassette Assembly”
on page 62 to make sure that the adapter is correctly installed in the cassette.
To replace a PCI adapter cassette, do the following:
1. Depress the handle release lever located in the center of the PCI adapter cassette handle. Move the
handle down completely to the fully down position. See the following illustration.
1 Cassette Dovetail Rails
2 Handle-release Lever Latch
3 Handle Release Lever
2. Push the top of the locking bar in until it clicks into the locked position.
Note: In this position, the locking bar locks the handle in the down position and prevents it from
being pulled up while the PCI adapter cassette is being removed.
