The power control button on the device and the power switch on the power supply do not turn off the
electrical current that is supplied to the device. The device also might have more than one power
cord. To remove all electrical current from the device, ensure that all power cords are disconnected
from the power source.
CAUTION:
Make sure that all server power cords are disconnected from their power sources before performing
this procedure.
Before you install an adapter in slots 10 through 15, make sure that there is no filler installed in the slot where
you are installing the adapter.
Important: You must remove the riser from the I/O tray before installing an adapter. If you are installing a
network adapter (with an RJ45 connector), make sure that there is sufficient clearance to disconnect the
Ethernet cable from the adapter after it is installed.
Note: If you are installing an adapter in slot 14 or 15, the slot 14 and 15 riser bracket or a riser bracket filler
must be installed on the riser. See “Install a riser bracket for slots 14 and 15” on page 179
