Chassis Maintenance

For warranty and safety considerations, SGI designates the following chassis components as
customer-replaceable units:
• Power supplies
• Fans
• Disk drives
These components are all hot-swappable; that is, you can replace them without powering down
the server. A trained service technician should install and replace all other components.
This chapter describes the following chassis maintenance activities:
• "Removing the Chassis Cover and Protective Film" on page 33
• "Replacing a Power Supply" on page 34
• "Installing and Removing Disk Drives" on page 36
• "Checking the Airflow" on page 41
