Procedure
1. Read the safety information that begins on page "Safety" on page vii and
"Installation guidelines" on page 32.
2. Touch the static-protective package that contains the drive to any unpainted
metal surface on the server; then, remove the drive from the package and place
it on a static-protective surface.
3. Remove the drive filler panel from one of the empty hot-swap bays.
4. Install the hard disk drive in the hot-swap bay:
a. Orient the drive as shown in the illustration.
b. Make sure that the tray handle is open.
c. Align the drive assembly with the guide rails in the bay.
Figure 29. Hot-swap hard disk drive installation
d. Gently push the drive assembly into the bay until the drive stops.
e. Push the tray handle to the closed (locked) position.
f. If the system is turned on, check the hard disk drive status LED to verify
that the hard disk drive is operating correctly.
5. Check the drive status LED to verify that the drive is operating correctly. If the
yellow drive status LED for a drive is lit continuously, that drive is faulty and
must be replaced. If the green drive activity LED is flashing, the drive is being
accessed.
Note: If the server is configured for RAID operation using a ServeRAID
adapter, you might have to reconfigure your disk arrays after you install drives.
See the ServeRAID adapter documentation for additional information about
RAID operation and complete instructions for using the ServeRAID adapter.
6. If you are installing additional hot-swap drives, do so now.
7. Restart the server. Confirm that it starts correctly and recognizes the newly
installed devices, and make sure that no error LEDs are lit.
8. Complete the additional steps in "Instructions for IBM Business Partners" on
page 24.
Results
If you have other devices to install or remove, do so now. Otherwise, go to
"Completing the installation" on page 79.
