Removal and Replacement Procedures
PCI-X Expansion Boards
CAUTION: To avoid the risk of damage to your system or expansion boards, disconnect all
AC power cords before installing or removing expansion boards. Moving the Power
On/Standby button to the off position still provides auxiliary power to the PCI-X expansion slot
and may damage the board or other system components.
CAUTION: Do not remove an expansion slot cover unless you are installing a PCI-X
expansion board. Operating the server without an expansion board or an expansion slot cover
installed results in improper airflow and improper cooling, which can lead to thermal damage.
To remove a PCI-X expansion board:
1. Power down and remove power from the server. Refer to “Powering Down the Server” in
this chapter.
2. Unlock and open the front bezel (tower server only).
3. Remove the access panel. Refer to “Access Panel” in this chapter.
4. Disconnect any cables attached to the expansion board.
5. Release the PCI-X guide clip.
NOTE: The dividers and divider base are removed from Figure 2-28 for clarity.
