Servicing the GPU Module
The X10c front mezzanine GPU module contains U.2 drives, GPU cables, GPU cages, and GPU cards as
field-replaceable components.
To service these components, see the following topics:
•
Replacing a GPU Cage, on page 11
•
Replacing a GPU Card, on page 17
•
Removing a Compute Node Cover
To remove the cover of the compute node, follow these steps:
Step 1
Press and hold the button down.
Step 2
While holding the back end of the cover, slide it back, then pull it up to lift the top cover off of the compute node.
By sliding the cover back, you enable the front edge to clear the metal lip on the rear of the front mezzanine module.
Replacing a GPU Cage
The GPU cage is an adapter card that provides two slots for GPUs cards. GPU cages provide the mechanical
housing for individual GPU cards. Removing the GPU cage is a prerequisite for removing or installing a GPU
card.
