Before you install the Brocade 2-Port 10Gb Converged Network Adapter in the blade server or
storage-expansion unit or the blade server in the BladeCenter unit, read the following information:
•
Read the Safety information that begins on
,
“Handling static-sensitive devices”
page 19, and the safety statements in the BladeCenter unit documentation. This information
will help you work safely.
•
Observe good housekeeping in the area where you are working. Place removed covers and
other parts in a safe place.
•
Blue on a component indicates touch points, where you can grip the component to remove it
from or install it in the blade server or BladeCenter unit, open or close a latch, and so on.
•
Orange on a component or an orange label on or near a component on the high speed adapter,
blade server, or BladeCenter unit indicates that the component can be hot-swapped, which
means that if the BladeCenter unit and operating system support hot-swap capability, you can
remove or install the component while the BladeCenter unit 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.
•
You do not have to turn off the BladeCenter unit to install or replace any of the hot-swap
modules on the front or rear of the BladeCenter unit.
•
When you are finished working on the blade server or BladeCenter unit, reinstall all safety
shields, guards, labels, and ground wires.
