Your SGI system support engineer (SSE) should perform the addition or replacement of
parts, cabling, and service of your Origin 350 server system, with the exception of the
following tasks that you may perform yourself:
•
Installing your system in a rack.
•
Cabling the system modules to each other.
•
Connecting a system console to your server system.
•
Using your system console to enter commands and perform system functions such
as powering on and powering off.
•
Using the On/Off, reset, and non-maskable interrupt (NMI) switches on the front
panel of your server system.
•
Installing and removing PCI and PCI-X cards.
Caution: Exception: Because the installation and removal of an IO9 PCI card, which
installs in the lowermost slot, is more complicated and can cause damage to your
system if not performed properly, it can only be installed and removed by a trained
SGI system support engineer.
•
Installing and removing disk drives.
•
Installing and removing power supplies.
•
Installing and removing DIMMs.
•
Installing and removing the L1 controller display.
