Removing And Replacing System Top Metal Cover And Bezels; Rack-Mount System - HP Integrity rx2620 User's & Service Manual

Removing and Replacing System Top Metal Cover and Bezels

To upgrade, remove, or replace most server components, you must first remove the top metal cover from the
server chassis. This section explains how to remove and replace the cover for the rack-mount configuration.
WARNING Do not remove the server cover(s) without first turning the server off and
unplugging the power cord from the outlet or power protection device unless you
are only replacing a hot-swappable fan.
When the server is running, the top metal cover must be replaced within 30 minutes
to prevent components from overheating. If the top metal cover is not replaced
within 30 minutes, the server automatically shuts down. If the server has been shut
down, always replace the cover before turning the server back on.

Rack-Mount System

To access the internal components on a rack-mounted server, pull the server out on the rail guides and
remove the top metal cover.
