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: To prevent damage to electrical components, properly ground the server before
beginning any installation procedure. Improper grounding can cause ESD.
1. Back up all server data.
2. Power down the server (on page 21).
3. Do one of the following:
o Extend the server from the rack (on page 21).
o Remove the server from the rack (on page 22).
4. Remove the access panel (on page 22).
5. Remove the primary PCI riser cage ("Remove the PCI riser cage" on page 23).
6. Install the GPU in the x16 slot in the primary PCI riser cage position. The PCI riser cage assembly
with the full-length, full-height PCIe3 x16 riser slot is required for GPU installation. For more
information, see "Full height PCIe x16 riser cage assembly option (on page 72)."
Before installing a high-power GPU in the server, be sure that the power supplies support the
installation of the option. Because of the high power requirements for the GPU, a 800-W or higher
power supply might be required. For more information, see the Hewlett Packard Enterprise
Configurator website (http://www.hpe.com/info/SimpleConfigurator ).
