Preparing the Server for Component Replacement

Note:

When you are replacing the storage drives or power supplies, not all of these procedures are necessary. See the replacement procedures for those components for more information.

Before you can remove and install components that are inside the server, you must perform the procedures in some or all of the following sections:

• Powering Down the Server

• Disconnect Cables From the Server

• Extend the Server to the Maintenance Position

• Remove the Server From the Rack

• Take Antistatic Measures

• Remove the Server Top Cover
