IBM Flex System p24L Installation And Service Manual page 63

1. Read the Safety topic and the "Installation guidelines" on page 27.
2. Shut down the operating system on all partitions of the compute node, turn off the compute node,
and remove the compute node from the IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis. See "Removing the
compute node from an IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis" on page 29.
3. Open and remove the compute node cover. See "Removing the compute node cover" on page 31.
4. Touch the static-protective package that contains the part to any unpainted metal surface on the IBM
Flex System Enterprise Chassis or any unpainted metal surface on any other grounded rack
component, and then remove the new part from its shipment package.
5. Make sure that the slot's two blue release tabs are in the open position, as indicated in Figure 21 on
page 50.
6. Orient the network adapter over the system board.
7. Lower the card to the system board, aligning the connectors on the card with its connector on the
system board. Press down gently until the card is firmly seated.
8. Lock the adapter in place by moving the slot's two blue release tabs into the closed position.
9. Install and close the compute node cover. See "Installing and closing the compute node cover" on
page 32.
Statement 21
CAUTION:
Hazardous energy is present when the compute node is connected to the power source. Always
replace the compute node cover before installing the compute node.
10. Install the compute node into the IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis. See "Installing the compute
node in an IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis" on page 76.
11. If you replaced the part because of a service action, verify the repair by checking that the amber
enclosure fault LED is off. For more information, see "Compute node control panel button and
LEDs" on page 9.
12. Use the documentation that comes with the expansion card to install device drivers and to perform
any configuration that the expansion card requires.
