Installing The System Components; Installing A Server; Installing The Front Chassis Fan Modules - HPE Apollo k6000 User Manual

Installing the system components

If components were removed during the chassis installation or additional components were ordered, install
each device using the procedures in this section.
If you perform any of the procedures in this section after powering on the chassis, ensure proper airflow by
ensuring that each bay inside the chassis and at the rear of the chassis is populated with either a component
or a blank.
For component-specific replacement information, see the HPE Apollo k6000 Chassis Maintenance and
Service Guide or the server-specific maintenance and service guides on the Hewlett Packard Enterprise
website (http://www.hpe.com/info/Apollok6000-docs).

Installing a server

To ensure proper air flow, always populate the chassis from bottom to top, beginning with bay 1.
CAUTION: To prevent improper cooling and thermal damage, do not operate the chassis unless all bays
are populated with a component or a blank.
Procedure
Install the server.
When seated properly, the server will be flush with the front of the chassis and the release lever will close
completely without resistance.

Installing the front chassis fan modules

Before powering up the chassis, populate all front and rear fan module bays with a fan module.
Procedure
Install the front fan module.
