Statement 21
CAUTION:
Hazardous energy is present when the blade server is connected to the power source. Always
replace the blade server cover before installing the blade server.
8. Install the blade server into the BladeCenter unit. See "Installing the blade server in a BladeCenter

Attention: If the management card was not properly installed, the power-on LED blinks rapidly
and a communication error is reported to the management module. If this occurs, remove the blade
server from the BladeCenter, as described in "Removing the tier 2 management card" on page 255.
Reseat the management card, then reinstall the blade server in the BladeCenter.
9. Power on the blade server. If a Virtual I/O Server (VIOS) partition is installed, power on only the
VIOS partition. If VIOS is not installed, power on one of the partitions. If the blade server is
managed by a management console, wait for the blade server to be discovered by the management
console before continuing with the next step.
