Install USB Flash Drives

  1. Prepare the server module for service.

    See Preparing the Sun Blade X3-2B for Service .

  2. Locate the correct rear USB port P0 (Oracle System Assistant) or P1.
  3. Push the USB flash drive into port 0 or 1.

    Caution

    Caution - Component damage or data loss. USB flash drives must fit inside the rear of the motherboard. Installing a longer USB drive on the rear port might damage the blade when inserted into the chassis. Drives can be no larger than 7.5 mm wide and 43 .0 mm deep.



    Caution

    Caution - Component damage. Ensure the USB flash drive contacts are in the upward-facing position.
