How to Remove the I/O Board

Caution – The I/O board is not a hot-pluggable component. You must shut down the
system and disconnect all the power cords from the system before performing this
procedure.

Before You Begin

You must remove the system controller card and all PCI cards from the I/O board.
Note the slot number associated with each card so you can return each card to the
appropriate slot when you reassemble the system.

What to Do

Caution – If you are using an antistatic wrist strap to protect against electrostatic
discharge, connect it to a properly grounded surface, such as a nearby equipment
rack, or a nearby system that is connected to a power source.
1. Disconnect all AC power cords from the power supplies.
