Removing the Server Side Panels

To install the redundant power upgrade in the server, the server side panels must
be removed. Also, please note that the right side panel removes in the same
manner as the left side panel.
For proper cooling and airflow, do not operate the system
with the side panels removed. Always replace the panels
before powering on the system.
Before removing the server covers, turn off the power and
unplug the system power cables. Power is removed only
when the power cables are unplugged.
To remove a side panel:
1. Unlock and open the server front door (tower version only).
2. Close all programs in use and shutdown the operating system.
3. Turn off power to any peripheral devices.
4. Power off the server by pressing the power button on the front of the server.
The power indicator goes out.
5. Disconnect all cables from the back of the server and unplug all power
cords. The power supply status indicators go out.
6. The side panel is secured to the chassis with three thumbscrews (see figure
below). Loosen the thumb screws securing the side panel
7. Slide the side panel toward the rear of the chassis. This unlocks the locking
fingers behind the side panel.
8. Pull the side panel out and away from the chassis.
