1. Read the safety information that begins on page vii and “Installation guidelines”
on page 38.
2. Turn off the server and peripheral devices and disconnect the power cords.
3. Remove the cover (see “Removing the cover” on page 50).
4. Remove the PCI riser-card assembly (if installed) from PCI riser connector 2
(see “Replacing a PCI riser-card assembly” on page 65).
5. Remove the adapter filler panel on the rear of the chassis (if it has not been
removed already).
