Installation guidelines

Use the installation guidelines to install the Lenovo System x3500 M5 Type 5464.
Attention: Static electricity that is released to internal server components when the server is powered-on
might cause the system to halt, which might result in the loss of data. To avoid this potential problem,
always use an electrostatic-discharge wrist strap or other grounding system when removing or installing a
hot-swap device.
Before you install optional devices, read the following information:
• Read the safety information in "Safety" on page v and the guidelines in "Working inside the server with
the power on" on page 31, and "Handling static-sensitive devices" on page 31. This information will
help you work safely.
• Make sure that the devices that you are installing are supported. For a list of supported optional devices
for the server, see http://www.lenovo.com/ serverproven/.
• When you install your new server, take the opportunity to download and apply the most recent firmware
updates. This step will help to ensure that any known issues are addressed and that your server is ready
to function at maximum levels of performance. To download firmware updates for your server, go to
http://www.ibm.com/support/ fixcentral.
Important: Some cluster solutions require specific code levels or coordinated code updates. If the
device is part of a cluster solution, verify that the latest level of code is supported for the cluster solution
before you update the code.
