Chapter 2. Installing the IBM Flex System adapter
This chapter provides information and instructions for installing the adapter. See
the documentation that came with the IBM Flex System compute node for the
instructions needed to install the adapter in the node; then, return to this User's

Installation of this adapter should only be done by a properly qualified technician
or engineer. Read and follow all safety precautions specified in this document.
Use the documentation supplied with the IBM Flex System chassis to remove and
replace the compute node from the chassis.
