Chapter 2. Installation guidelines
Before you remove or replace a component, read the following information.
v
Read Safety and “Handling static-sensitive devices” on page 4. This information
will help you work safely.
v Observe good housekeeping in the area where you are working. Place removed
covers and other parts in a safe place.
v
You do not have to disconnect the BladeCenter S system from power to install or
replace any of the hot-swap modules. You must shut down the operating system
and turn off a hot-swap blade server before you remove it, but you do not have
to remove power from the BladeCenter S system itself.
v
Do not attempt to lift an object that you think is too heavy for you. If you have
to lift a heavy object, observe the following precautions:
– Make sure that you stand safely without slipping.
– Distribute the weight of the object equally between your feet.
– Use a slow lifting force. Never move suddenly or twist when you lift a heavy
object.
– To avoid straining the muscles in your back, lift by standing or by pushing
up with your leg muscles.
v
Make sure that you have an adequate number of properly grounded electrical
outlets for the BladeCenter S system.
v
Back up all important data before you make changes to disk drives.
v
Have a small flat-blade screwdriver available.
v
Orange on a component or an orange label on or near a component indicates
that the component may be hot-swapped, which means that you can remove or
install the component while the BladeCenter S system is running. (Orange can
also indicate touch points on hot-swap components.) See the instructions for
removing or installing a specific hot-swap component for any additional
procedures that you might have to perform before you remove or install the
component.
v
Blue on a component indicates touch points, where you can grip the component
to remove it from or install it in the BladeCenter S chassis, open or close a latch,
and so on.

v
Each of the blade bays on the front of the BladeCenter S chassis has either a
blade server or a blade bay filler installed in it.

module filler installed in it. If a disk storage module is installed, each of the
drive bays has a hard disk drive or a hard disk drive bay filler installed in it.
