Server modules are customer installable units. They are also hot-pluggable chassis components. The following procedures provides detailed steps for: (1) removing the server module filler panel from the chassis, inserting a new server module into the chassis, and (3) verifying that the hot insert operation succeeded.
Remove the server module filler panel from the chassis by following these steps:
To unlatch the server module filler panel from the chassis, press the button on the ejector lever handles at the top and bottom; then pivot out and raise the top ejector lever and lower the bottom ejector lever.
Hold the ejector levers and pull the filler panel out of the chassis slot.
To insert a new server module into the chassis, follow these steps:
Unpack the server module (box labeled Sun Blade), then locate the vacant blade slot in the front of the chassis.
Align the server module with the vacant server module slot. Ensure that the:
Blade indicator lights on the front panel are facing toward you.
Video, keyboard, and mouse connectors are at the bottom.
Blade ejector levers are fully opened.
Slide the server module into the vacant server module chassis slot.
As the ejectors make contact with the chassis, the bottom lever will start to rise, and the top lever will start to lower.
Simultaneously close the ejector levers at the top and bottom of the server module (lower the top ejector and raise the bottom ejector) until the levers lock in place against the front of the server module.
Verify that the server module is powered on and operational by following the procedure described in:Verify Hot-Insert Operation.
The server module power policy in ILOM determines the default power state of the server module SP at power up. For more information, seePower Blade On or Off.
