To remove a PCI or PCI-X card, follow these steps:
1. Power off the server system. For powering off instructions, see "Powering the
Server System On and Off" on page 53.
2. Disconnect all of the cables at the rear of the module.
Warning:
Components may be hot. To avoid injury, allow the components to cool
for approximately five minutes before you proceed with these instructions.
3. Remove the two screws that secure the module to the front rails of the rack.
4. Pull the module from the rack until it is stopped by the safety latches.
Note: If you are removing a PCI or PCI-X card from one of the two lower slots (bus
1, slot 1, or bus 1, slot 2), you must remove the module from the rack. For
instructions, see "Removing a Module on Slide Rails from a Rack" on page 39.
5. Make sure that you read "Safety Instructions" on page 155, and "Rules for Card
Installation and Removal" on page 158, before installing the card.
