11. Connect any required cables to the adapter. Route the cables so that they do
not block the flow of air from the system fan.
12. Install the air baffle (see "Replacing the air baffle" on page 185).
13. Install the side cover (see "Replacing the side cover" on page 182).
14. Stand the server back up in its vertical position.
15. Install the bezel (see "Replacing the bezel" on page 188).
16. Reconnect the external cables and power cords; then, turn on the attached
devices and turn on the server.
To install a replacement adapter on the 5U server model with hot-swap power
supplies, complete the following steps. For 4U server models with non-hot-swap
power supplies, please see the above sub-section.
1. Read the safety information in "Safety" on page vii and "Installation
guidelines" on page 35.
2. Check the instructions that come with the adapter for any requirements,
restrictions, or cabling instructions. It might be easier to route cables before
you install the adapter.
3. Follow the instructions that come with the adapter to set jumpers or switches,
if any.
4. Touch the static-protective package that contains the adapter to any unpainted
metal surface on the server. Then, remove the adapter from the
static-protective package. Avoid touching the components and gold-edge
connectors on the adapter.
5. Turn off the server and all peripheral devices; then, disconnect the power
cords and all external cables.
6. Remove the expansion-slot cover by unscrewing the screw that secures it to
the chassis. Store the expansion-slot cover and screw in a safe place for future
use.
Note: Expansion-slot covers must be installed on all vacant slots. This
maintains the electronic emissions standards of the server and ensures proper
ventilation of server components.
7. Carefully grasp the adapter by the top edge or upper corner, and move the
adapter directly from the static-protective package to the expansion slot. Align
the adapter with the expansion slot guides; then, press the adapter firmly into
the expansion slot.
Attention: Make sure that the adapter is correctly seated in the expansion
slot before you turn on the server. Incomplete installation of an adapter might
damage the system board or the adapter.
