Chapter 2
Maintenance and Component Installation
This chapter provides instructions on installing and replacing main system components. To
prevent compatibility issues, only use components that match the specifications and/or part
numbers given.
Installation or replacement of most components require that power first be removed from the
system. Please follow the procedures given in each section.
2.1 Removing Power
Use the following procedure to ensure that power has been removed from the system. This
step is necessary when removing or installing non hot-swap components or when replacing
a non-redundant power supply.
1. Use the operating system to power down the system.
2. After the system has completely shut-down, disconnect the AC power cord(s) from the
power strip or outlet. (If your system has more than one power supply, remove the AC
power cords from all power supply modules.)
3. Disconnect the power cord(s) from the power supply module(s).
2.2 Accessing the System
The system features removable side covers, which allows access to the inside of the system.
Removing the Side Covers
1. Remove the two screws from the rear lip of the cover as shown on the next page.
2. Push the cover toward the back of the chassis until free.
Caution
: Except for short periods of time, do not operate the server without the covers in
place to allow for proper airflow and to prevent overheating.
