Removing and Installing a UCS B200 Blade Server
• Graceful shutdown—Press and release the Power button. The operating system will perform a
graceful shutdown and the server goes to standby mode, which is indicated by an amber Power
Status LED.
• Emergency shutdown—Press and hold the Power button for 4 seconds to force the main power off
and immediately enter standby mode.
Step 3 If you are shutting down all blade servers in a chassis, you should now disconnect the power cords from
the chassis to completely power off the servers. If you are only shutting down one server, you can skip
unplugging the chassis and move to removing the server.
Removing a Cisco UCS B200 Blade Server
Using UCS Manager, decommission the server using UCS Manager before physically removing the
server. To remove a blade server from the chassis, follow these steps:
Step 1 Loosen the captive screw on the front of the blade.
Step 2 Remove the blade from the chassis by pulling the ejector lever on the blade until it unseats the blade
server.
Step 3 Slide the blade part of the way out of the chassis, and place your other hand under the blade to support
its weight.
Step 4 Once removed, place the blade on an antistatic mat or antistatic foam if you are not immediately
reinstalling it into another slot.
Step 5 If the slot is to remain empty, install a blank faceplate (N20-CBLKB1) to keep dust out of the chassis.
