AMD Opteron LS20 Type 8850 for IBM BladeCenter: Problem Determination and Service Guide
1. Read the safety information that begins on page v and "Installation guidelines"
on page 59 through "Handling static-sensitive devices" on page 60.
2. If you have not done so already, install any options that you want, such as
SCSI drives or memory, in the blade server.
3. Make sure that the release levers on the blade server are in the open position
(perpendicular to the blade server).
4. If you installed a filler blade or another blade in the bay from which you
removed the blade server, remove it from the bay.
Attention: You must install the blade server in the same blade bay from
which you removed it. Some blade server configuration information and update
options are established according to bay number. Reinstalling a blade server
into a different blade bay from the one from which it was removed could have
unintended consequences, and you might have to reconfigure the blade server.
5. Slide the blade server into the blade bay from which you removed it until it
stops. The spring-loaded doors farther back in the bay that cover the bay
opening move out of the way as you insert the blade server.
Note: When installing any blade server or option in blade bays 7 through 14
(in a BladeCenter unit) or in blade bays 5 through 8 (in a BladeCenter T unit),
power modules must be present in all four power-module bays.
6. Push the release levers on the front of the blade server closed.
7. Turn on the blade server (see "Turning on the blade server" on page 6 for
instructions).
