3: Server Installation

Check the Serverboard Setup

After you install the server in the rack, you will need to open the unit to make sure the serverboard 
is properly installed and all the connections have been made. Before operating the server for the 
first time, it is important to remove any protective film covering the top of the chassis. The 
removal of this film allows for proper ventilation and cooling.

Removing the Chassis Cover

Use the following procedure for removing the chassis cover as illustrated in 

Figure 3-4

.

Note:  

Ensure that the system is not turned on or connected to AC power.

1. If the server is rack-mounted, grasp the two front handles and pull the server straight out 

until it locks.

You will hear a click when it locks. To remove the system from the rack completely, depress 
the locking tabs on the chassis rails (push the right-side tab down and the left-side tab up) to 
continue to pull the system out past the locked position.

2. If the two optional screws are securing the cover to the chassis, remove them, one from each 

side of the cover.

3. Press both release tabs at the same time to unlock the cover and slide the cover to the rear.

4. Lift the cover from the chassis.
