Accessing Internal Server Components
This section defines standard procedures to access internal server components.
Procedures will vary depending on whether the server is in the rack and powered on,
or out of the rack.
Accessing Internal Components When the Server Is Out of the
Rack
When the server is not installed in the rack, accessing internal components requires
removal of the access panel.
Removing the Access Panel
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the
internal system components to cool before touching them.
CAUTION:
Before removing the server access panel, be sure that the server is
powered down and that the power cord is disconnected from the server or the
electrical outlet.
CAUTION:
Electrostatic discharge can damage electronic components. Be sure you
are properly grounded before beginning any installation procedure.
To remove the access panel:
1.
Press and hold down the locking latches on each side of the access panel.
2.
Slide the access panel toward the rear of the unit, about 1.25 cm (0.5 inch), and
lift the panel to remove it.
Accessing Internal Components When the Server Is In the Rack
When the rack management solution option is installed (ball-bearing slide rails and a
cable management system), many hardware procedures may be performed without
removing the server from the rack.
