numbers given.
Remove power from the system and remove the top cover before installing or replacing
components. Refer to Section 3.1 and Section 3.2.

non-redundant power supply.
1. Use the operating system to power down the system.
2. After the system has fully shut down, disconnect the AC power cord(s) from the power
strip or outlet. (If your system has more than one power supply, remove the AC power
cords from all power supply modules.)
3. Disconnect the power cord(s) from the power supply module(s).
3.2 Accessing the System
The chassis cover must be removed when performing some prodecures in this chapter.
1. Power down the system.
