Operations 18
IMPORTANT: The requirement of extending or removing the server from the rack when
performing installation and maintenance procedures depends on the rail system used:
• If using a ball-bearing rail system, you can perform most installations and maintenance by
simply extending the server from the rack.
• If using a friction rail system, to perform installations or maintenance that requires access panel
removal, remove the server from the rack.
To remove the server from an HP, Compaq-branded, Telco, or third-party rack:
1. Power down the server (on page 16).
2. Disconnect all peripheral cables and power cords from the server rear panel.
3. Extend the server from the rack (on page 16).
4. Remove the server from the rack. For more information, see the documentation that ships with the rack
mounting option.
5. Place the server on a sturdy, level surface.

To access the front panel components, unlock and then remove the security bezel.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the
internal system components to cool before touching them.
CAUTION: Do not operate the server for long periods with the access panel open or removed.
Operating the server in this manner results in improper airflow and improper cooling that can
lead to thermal damage.
1. Power down the server (on page 16).
2. Remove all power:
