Removal and replacement procedures 31
For instructions on how to extend or remove the server from the rack, see the documentation that
ships with the rack rail system.
6. Place the server on a sturdy, level surface.
Remove the air baffle
CAUTION: For proper cooling, do not operate the server without the access panel, baffles,
expansion slot covers, or blanks installed. If the server supports hot-plug components,
minimize the amount of time the access panel is open.
To remove the component:
1. Do one of the following:
o For tower models, open and remove the tower bezel ("Remove the tower bezel" on page 28).
o For rack models, if installed, remove the security bezel ("Remove the security bezel (optional)"
on page 28).
2. Power down the server (on page 29).
3. Remove all power:
a. Disconnect each power cord from the power source.
b. Disconnect each power cord from the server.
4. Do one of the following:
o For tower models, place the server on a flat, level surface with the access panel facing up.
o For rack models, extend the server from the rack (on page 29).
5. Remove the access panel.
6. Remove the air baffle.
Remove the fan cage
IMPORTANT: When installing or replacing server
components, one or more fans might need
to be removed. To prevent an orderly or immediate server shutdown, Hewlett Packard
Enterprise highly recommends powering down the server during these procedures. To
determine if powering down is required, see the specific procedure.
