Removal and replacement procedures 49
Removing the FBWC capacitor pack holder
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of personal injury, electric shock, or damage to the equipment,
remove the power cord to remove power from the server. The front panel Power On/Standby
button does not completely shut off system power. Portions of the power supply and some
internal circuitry remain active until AC power is removed.
To remove the component:
CAUTION: The cache module connector does not use the industry-standard DDR3
mini-DIMMs. Do not use the controller with cache modules designed for other controller
models, because the controller can malfunction and you can lose data. Also, do not transfer
this cache module to an unsupported controller model, because you can lose data.
1. Back up all data.
2. Close all applications.
3. Power down the server (on page 26).
4. Remove all power:
a. Disconnect each power cord from the power source.
b. Disconnect each power cord from the server.
CAUTION: In systems that use external data storage, be sure that the server is the first unit
to be powered down and the last to be powered back up. Taking this precaution ensures that
the system does not erroneously mark the drives as failed when the server is powered up.
5. Extend the server from the rack (on page 26).
6. Remove the access panel (on page 28).
7. Extend the processor memory drawer approximately 2.54 to 5.1 cm (1 to 2 inches).
8. Remove any capacitor packs installed in the holder ("Removing the capacitor pack" on page 46).
