IBM P260, Installation And Service Manual

Page: 95 / 524

1. Read the Safety topic and the “Installation guidelines” on page 35.
2.
Shut down the operating system on all partitions of the compute node, turn off the compute node,
and remove the compute node from the IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis. See “Removing the
compute node from an IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis” on page 37.
3. Carefully lay the compute node on a flat, static-protective surface, with the cover side up.
4. Open and remove the compute node cover. See “Removing the compute node cover” on page 39.
5. Locate the connector on the currently installed system board into which the light path panel will be
installed. See
▌7▐
in Figure 2 on page 14 and
▌8▐
in Figure 3 on page 15 for the location of the light
path panel on the system board.
6. For best maneuverability and visibility, orient yourself on the right side of the compute node.
7. Using your right hand, connect the cable (B) on the system board by pressing it in its connector slot
by using your index finger.
8. Align the light path diagnostics panel (A) with its bracket. The blue touchpoint tab faces toward the
back of the compute node.
9.
Press the light path diagnostics panel securely in the bracket.
10. Install and close the compute node cover. See “Installing and closing the compute node cover” on
page 41.
Statement 21
CAUTION:
Hazardous energy is present when the compute node is connected to the power source. Always
replace the compute node cover before installing the compute node.
11. Install the compute node into the IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis. See “Installing the compute
node in an IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis” on page 93.
12. If you replaced the part because of a service action, verify the repair by checking that the amber
enclosure fault LED is off. For more information, see “Compute node control panel button and
LEDs” on page 11.
Removing and replacing FRUs (trained service technician only)
About this task
A FRU must be installed only by trained service technicians.
Replacing the system-board and chassis assembly
Field replaceable units (FRUs) must be replaced only by trained service technicians. When replacing the
system-board, you replace the system-board, compute node base (chassis), microprocessors, and heat
sinks as a single assembly.
