Removal and replacement procedures 31
Device bay blank
Remove the blank from the enclosure:
CAUTION: For best cooling practices, do not operate the enclosure for extended periods with
more than one component or blank removed. When removing an active component, replace it
with a blank.
To replace the component, reverse the removal procedure.
Device bay shelf
The c7000 enclosure is divided into four quadrants by the vertical support metal work. Within each
quadrant, a removable divider supports half-height blades. To install a full-height blade in any quadrant, this
divider must be removed. Therefore, a quadrant can only contain either full-height blades or half-height
blades.
CAUTION: Failure to install the divider in a quadrant when installing half-height blades can
result in damage to the connectors on the server blades.
