Removal and replacement procedures
Required tools
You need the following items for some procedures:
• T-10/T-15 Torx screwdriver
• HP Insight Diagnostics software ("HP Insight Diagnostics" on page 67)
Preparation procedures
To access some components and perform certain service procedures, you must perform one or more of the
following procedures:
• Extend the server from the rack (on page 25).
If you are performing service procedures in an HP, Compaq branded, telco, or third-party rack
cabinet, you can use the locking feature of the rack rails to support the server and gain access to
internal components.
For more information about telco rack solutions, refer to the RackSolutions.com website
(http://www.racksolutions.com/hp
).
• Power down the server (on page 26).
If you must remove a server from a rack or a non-hot-plug component from a server, power down the
server.
• Remove the server from the rack (on page 27).
If the rack environment, cabling configuration, or the server location in the rack creates awkward
conditions, remove the server from the rack.
• Access the product rear panel ("Access the server rear panel (rack model)" on page 27).
If you are performing certain service procedures, access the product rear panel.
Extend the server from the rack
1. Power down the server (on page 26).
2. Pull down the quick-release levers on each side of the server to release the server from the rack.
IMPORTANT: If the server is installed in a telco rack, remove the server from the rack to access
internal components.
3. Extend the server on the rack rails until the server rail-release latches engage.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, be sure that the rack
is adequately stabilized before extending a component from the rack.
