Remove the Server Top Cover
Servicing most of the server components requires that the top cover be removed.
 | Caution - If the top cover is removed without first removing the AC power cords, the server host shuts down immediately and an event is logged to indicate that the chassis top cover has been removed. |
- Ensure that the AC power cords are disconnected from the server power supplies.
- Open the server fan door.
