Chapter 3. Installing the blade server
If you have options to install in the blade server, you should install them now. See
Chapter 4, “Installing and removing replaceable units,” on page 19 and the
BladeCenter QS22 Problem Determination and Service Guide for further
information, then continue with the instructions in this chapter.
Installation guidelines
The QS22 blade server is a hot-swappable device: you can install or remove the
blade server while the BladeCenter unit is running. QS22 blade servers can operate
alongside different blade servers in the same BladeCenter unit.
Attention: If you plan to remove a blade server and reinstall it, be sure to note
the number of the bay that contains the blade server before you remove it. You
must reinstall the blade server in the same bay from which it was removed.
Reinstalling a blade server into a different bay than the one from which it was
removed could have unexpected consequences, such as incorrect reconfiguration of
the blade server. Some blade server 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.
Statement 21:
CAUTION:
Hazardous energy is present when the blade server is connected to the power
source. Always replace the blade cover before installing the blade server.
For information about the design of the BladeCenter unit, including the hot-swap
blade bays, see the Installation and User's Guide for your BladeCenter unit.
While you can install or remove the blade server without removing power from the
BladeCenter unit, you must turn off the blade server before removing it from the
BladeCenter unit.
The maximum number of blade servers that the BladeCenter unit supports depends
on the electrical power provided by the power supplies that are installed in the
BladeCenter unit. For more information about determining the power requirements
for the blade server, see the IBM BladeCenter Power Module Upgrade Guidelines .
