Remove a drive from the front drive cages

WARNING:
To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, be sure that the rack is adequately stabilized
before extending a component from the rack.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives, power input modules, and the
internal system components to cool before touching them.
CAUTION:
Do not operate the server for long periods with the front drive cages extended. When the front drive
cages are extended while the server is powered on, do one of the following:
• If the iLO 08-HD Max sensor reading is reporting a temperature value, monitor the status of the front
drive health/thermal LED. When this LED starts flashing amber, immediately slide the drive cages
back into the chassis and keep them there until the LED turns green.
• If the iLO 08-HD Max sensor reading is reporting an N/A value, monitor how long the drive cages
have been out of the chassis. Before reaching the 140 sec mark, slide the drive cages back into the
chassis and keep them there for at least 300 sec before extending them out again.
Failure to observe this caution will result in improper airflow and insufficient cooling that can lead to
thermal damage.
CAUTION:
Do not operate the server with any of the front drive cage 1 bays empty. To maintain proper airflow and
sufficient cooling in the front drive cage 1, all drive bays in this cage should have a drive or a drive
blank.
