WARNING!
To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the internal system components to cool
before touching them.
CAUTION:
Do not operate the node for long periods without the access panel. Operating the node without the
access panel results in improper airflow and improper cooling that can lead to thermal damage.
Preparation procedures
To access some components and perform certain replacement procedures, you must perform one or more
of the following procedures:
•
Extend the node from the rack. See
If you are performing service procedures in an HP, Compaq branded, telco, or third-party rack
cabinet, you can use the locking feature of the rack rails to support the node and gain access to
internal components.
For more information about telco rack solutions, see the RackSolutions.com web site
(http://www.racksolutions.com/hp).
•
Power off the system. See
If you must remove a non-hot-plug component from the node, power off the system.
•
Remove the node access panel. See
If you must remove a component located inside the node, remove the access panel.
