When servicing the components in this section, unplug the AC power cords and use ESD protection.
Caution - Component damage. Ensure that all power is removed from the server before removing or installing expansion cards. You must disconnect the power cables before performing this procedure. |
Before You Begin
For serviceability considerations, see Component Serviceability.
For PCIe slot designation information, see Component Designations.
See Server Back Panel Features for information about PCIe slots and their locations.
Make note of the cables, so you can install them in the same connectors on the replacement card.
Caution - Server over temperature. Whenever you remove a PCIe card, you should replace it with another PCIe card or a filler panel; otherwise, the server might overheat due to improper airflow. |
