Installing the high speed adapter in a blade server

•
While the device is still in its static-protective package, touch it to an unpainted metal surface
of the BladeCenter unit chassis or an unpainted metal surface on any other grounded rack
component in the rack that you are installing the device in for at least 2 seconds. This drains
static electricity from the package and from your body.
•
Remove the device from its package and install it directly into the BladeCenter unit without
setting down the device. If it is necessary to set down the device, put it back into its
static-protective package. Do not place the device on the BladeCenter unit or on a metal
surface.
•
Take additional care when you handle devices during cold weather. Heating reduces indoor
humidity and increases static electricity.
•
Some types of BladeCenter units come with electrostatic discharge (ESD) connectors. If the
BladeCenter unit is equipped with an ESD connector, see the documentation that comes with
the BladeCenter unit for using the ESD connector.
Installing the high speed adapter in a blade server
To install the high speed adapter in a blade server or storage-expansion unit, complete the
following steps:
1. Read the
on page vii and
2. Turn off the blade server, if you have not already done so.
3. If the blade server is installed in the BladeCenter unit, remove it. (For instructions, see the
documentation that comes with your BladeCenter unit.)
4. Carefully place the blade server on a flat, static-protective surface.
5. Remove the cover from the blade server or storage-expansion unit. For instructions, see the
Installation and User's Guide that comes with your blade server or storage-expansion unit and
the documentation that comes with your BladeCenter unit.
6. If you have not already done so, touch the static-protective package that contains the high
speed adapter to any unpainted metal surface of the BladeCenter unit or any unpainted metal
surface on any other grounded rack-component for at least 2 seconds.
7. Remove the new high speed adapter from its static-protective package.
8. Locate the expansion-card connectors on the system board in the blade server, as shown in
9. If you have not already done so, check for check for protective covers over the connectors on
the underside of the high speed adapter and over the system-board blade-expansion
connector.
•
If there are protective covers over the connectors on the underside of the high speed
adapter, remove them.
•
If there is a protective cover over the system-board blade-expansion connector, also known
as the PCI Express expansion-card connector on the system board, remove the protective
cover. The protective cover contains the words “BLADE EXPANSION.” In
page 21 the PCI Express connector is the large rectangular expansion-card connector on
the right side of the system board. This connector is indicated by the down arrow
immediately above it.
