Closing the blade server cover
Important: The blade server cannot be inserted into the BladeCenter unit until the
cover is installed and closed or an expansion unit is installed. Do not attempt to
override this protection.
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.
Complete the following steps to close the blade server cover:
1. Read the safety information beginning on page vii and “Installation guidelines”
on page 19.
2. If you removed the front bezel assembly, replace it now. See “Installing the front
bezel assembly” on page 36 for instructions.
3. Lower the cover so that the slots at the rear slide down onto the pins at the rear
of the blade server, as shown in Figure 26. Before closing the cover, make sure
that all components are installed and seated correctly and that you have not left
loose tools or parts inside the blade server.
4. Pivot the cover to the closed position as shown in Figure 26 until it clicks into
place.
Input/output connectors and devices
The BladeCenter unit contains the input/output connectors that are available to the
