Preparing to Install Options

If you are:

•  Installing or removing a hot-plug PCI adapter, go to 'Adapters'.
•  Installing or replacing a hot-swap hard disk drive, go  to 'Internal Drive Installation'.
•  Installing or replacing a hot-swap power supply, go to 'Hot-Swap Power Supply Installation'.
•  Removing a hot-swap power supply, go to 'Hot-Swap Power Supply Removal'.
•  Replacing a hot-swap fan, go to 'Hot-Swap Fan Assembly'.
•  Installing or removing an option not listed in the  preceding list, continue with the following steps.

1.  Unlock and open the server door.

      When unlocked, the server door will not support  the weight of the server. To avoid personal  injury, be sure to remove or lock the server door  before moving or lifting the server.

2.  Remove all media (diskettes, CDs, optical discs, or  tapes) from the drives, then, turn off the server and all  attached options.

      The Power Control button on the front of the  server does not turn off the electrical current  supplied to the server. The server also might  have more than one power cord. To remove all  electrical current from the server, ensure that all  power cords are disconnected from the power  source.

3.  If you have a modem or fax machine attached to the  server, disconnect the telephone line from the  electrical outlet.
4.  Unplug all power cords (cables) from electrical  outlets.
5.  Note the location of the remaining cables and cords,  then disconnect them from the back of the server.

      Electrical current from power, telephone, and  communication cables can be hazardous. To avoid  personal injury or equipment damage, disconnect the  attached power cords, telecommunications systems,  networks, and modems before you open the server  covers, unless instructed otherwise in the installation  and configuration procedures.  Go to 'Top Cover Removal'.
