Statement 21
CAUTION:
Hazardous energy is present when the blade server is connected to the power
source. Always replace the blade cover before installing the blade server.
1. Before you begin, read “Safety” on page v and “Installation guidelines” on
page 15.
2. If you have not done so already, install any optional devices that you want,
such as hard disk drives, memory, or an InfiniBand high-speed expansion card,
in the blade server.
3. Select the I/O-module bay for the blade server; at least one I/O-module bay is
required.
Notes:
a. When any blade server or device is in any I/O-module bay 7 through 14,
power modules must be installed in all four power-module bays. For
additional information, see the
Installation and User’s Guide that comes with
the BladeCenter unit.
b. To help ensure proper cooling, performance, and system reliability, make
sure that each I/O-module bay on the front of the BladeCenter unit contains
a blade server, expansion unit, or blade filler. Do not operate a BladeCenter
unit for more than 1 minute without a blade server, expansion unit, or
blade filler in each I/O-module bay.
4.
Make sure that the release handles on the blade server are in the open position
(perpendicular to the blade server).
5. Slide the blade server into the I/O-module bay until it stops.
6.
Push the release handles on the front of the blade server to the closed position.
7. Turn on the blade server (see “Turning on the blade server” on page 13 for
instructions).
8. Make sure that the power-on LED on the blade server control panel is lit
continuously, indicating that the blade server is receiving power and is turned
on.
9. If you have other blade servers to install, do so now.
