To install a Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine, complete the following steps:
1. Read the safety information that begins on page v and “Installation guidelines”
on page 9.
2. Turn off the server and peripheral devices and disconnect all power cords and
external cables.
Attention: In a dc power environment, only trained service personnel other
than IBM service technicians are authorized to connect or disconnect power to
the dc power supply. See the documentation that comes with each dc power
supply.
3. Remove the server cover.
4. Remove the PCI riser-card assembly.
5. Align the keys on the Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine connector with the
connector on the system board.
6. Slip the free end of the Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine under the tab on
the retainer bracket, aligning the holes in the adapter with the posts on the
retainer bracket and latch bracket; then, press the adapter into the connector on
the system board and make sure that all tabs on the latch bracket secure the
adapter in place.
7. Replace the PCI riser-card assembly.
See
the documentation that comes with the Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine
for information about installing the firmware and configuring the adapter. Create a
backup copy of the configuration so that if you have to replace the adapter in the
future, you can restore the configuration.
If you have other optional devices to install or remove, do so now. Otherwise, go to
“Completing the installation” on page 32.
Replacing the ServeRAID SAS controller
A ServeRAID SAS controller can be installed only in a dedicated slot on the system
board. The server comes with a ServeRAID-8k-l SAS Controller installed.
Note: The ServeRAID-8k-l SAS Controller does not have a battery.
