one of the following errors occurs:
v An error log indicates a temperature warning for the Ethernet adapter.
v All power supplies are removed or the server is disconnected from the power
source.
To install the dual-port network adapter, complete the following steps:
Procedure
1. Read the safety information that begins on “Safety” on page vii and
“Installation guidelines” on page 33.
2. Turn off the server and peripheral devices and disconnect the power cords
and all external cables, if necessary.
3. Remove the cover (see “Removing the cover” on page 36).
4. Remove the PCI riser-card assembly (if installed) from PCI riser connector 2
(see “Removing a PCI riser-card assembly” on page 244).
5. Remove the adapter filler panel on the rear of the chassis (if it has not been
removed already).
6. Touch the static-protective package that contains the new adapter to any
unpainted metal surface on the server. Then, remove the adapter from the
package.
7. Align the adapter so that the port connectors on the adapter line up with the
pin and thumbscrew on the chassis; then, align the connector of the adapter
with the adapter connector on the system board.
