Chapter 3 Hardware Installation and
Maintenance
This chapter helps you assemble the chassis and install components.
Before You Begin
Before you work with the server, pay close attention to the "Important Safety Instructions"
at the beginning of this manual.
1. Make sure the server is powered off.
Power down the server if it is still running.
(1) Press the Power button to power off the server from full-power mode to standby-
power (sleep) mode. The Power LED at the front turns from solid green to blinking
green.
(2) Disconnect the power cord first from the AC outlet and then from the server.
The power LED turns off.
The server is not completely powered down when you press the Power button on the front
panel. The Power button lets the server toggle between Power On and Standby (Sleep)
modes. Some internal circuitry remain active in the Standby mode. To remove all power
from the system completely, be sure to disconnect the power cord from the server.
2. Ensure you have a clean and stable working environment. Avoid dust and dirt because
contaminants may cause malfunctions.
3. Ground yourself properly before touching any system component. A discharge of static
electricity may damage components. Wear a grounded wrist strap if available.
