Server Recycling and E-Waste
This chapter documents the procedures to disassemble key server components for recycling and e-waste.
When recycling your Cisco UCS hardware, always make sure to follow local e-waste and recycling regulations.
For Recyclers Only! The procedures in this chapter are not standard field-service options. These procedures
are for recyclers who will be reclaiming the electronics for proper disposal to comply with local eco design
and e-waste regulations. For standard field-service procedures, see Maintaining the Server, on page 47.
Note
The server is heavy! Do not attempt to unrack or lift the server by yourself. Use a server lift, scissors jack, or
some other mechanical tool to lift and support the server while inserting, moving, or removing it.
Caution
The server has various components that can be recycled. When recycling the server and its components, always
comply with your local laws governing recycling and e-waste.
The procedures in this chapter are destructive and can render the server unusable, so this content is not for
standard use or FRU procedures! These procedures are for recyclers only!
