HP BladeSystem c3000 User Manual

37
CAUTION
If a full-height server blade is installed in device bay 1/5 and
half-height server blades are installed in device bays 2 or 6,
removing the full-height server blade leaves server blades
installed in device bays 2 and 6 unsupported. This might cause
damage to the server blades and the enclosure connectors.
Removing the full-height divider in Zone 1 allows only full-height server blades to be installed in
Zone 1.
Removing the full-height divider in the Zone 2 requires either installing only full-height server blades in
Zone 2 or installing the half-height divider between device bays 4 and 8. With the half-height divider
installed, two half-height devices (two server blades, one companion blade and one server blade, or
one blade blank and one companion blade or server blade) can be installed in device bays 4 and 8,
and one full-height server blade in device bay 3/7.
A companion blade (HP StorageWorks SB40c Storage Blade, HP PCI Expansion Blade, or HP
StorageWorks Ultrium 448c Tape Blade) can be installed in either of the paired device bays (1/2,
3/4, 5/6, or 7/8) with a half-height server blade installed in the other paired device bay.
To install a companion blade with a full-height server blade, the companion blade must be installed in
device bay 8 with the full-height server blade installed in device bay 3/7. The half-height divider must
be installed between device bays 4 and 8, and either a blade blank or a half-height server blade can
be installed in device bay 4.
