Removing the blade server from the BladeCenter unit
The following illustration shows how to remove an LS22 Type 7901 blade server
from a Type 8677 BladeCenter unit. The procedure for removing the LS42 Type
7902 blade server and MPE is the same. The appearance of your BladeCenter unit
might be different. See the documentation for your BladeCenter unit for additional
information.
Attention:
v
To maintain proper system cooling, do not operate the BladeCenter unit without a
blade server, expansion unit, or filler installed in each blade bay.
v When you remove the blade server, note the bay number. Reinstalling a blade
server into a different bay from the one it was removed from might have
unintended consequences. Some configuration information and update options
are established according to bay number; if you reinstall the blade server into a
different bay, you might have to reconfigure the blade server.
To remove the blade server, complete the following steps:
1. Read the safety information beginning on page “Safety” on page v and
“Installation guidelines” on page 17.
2. If the blade server is operating, shut down the operating system.
3. Press the power-control button (behind the blade server control panel door) to
turn off the blade server (see “Turning off the blade server” on page 13 for more
information).
Attention: Wait at least 30 seconds, until the hard disk drives stop spinning,
before you proceed to the next step. The activity LED on the control panel turns
off when the hard disk drive has stopped spinning (see “Blade server control
panel and LEDs” on page 11).
4. Open the two release levers as shown in the illustration. The blade server
moves out of the bay approximately 0.6 cm (0.25 inch).
5. Pull the blade server out of the bay.
6. Put either a blade filler or another blade server in the bay within 1 minute.
