Installing a Cisco UCS B230 Blade Server

To install a blade server, follow these steps:

Step 1 Grasp the front of the blade server and place your other hand under the blade to support it. Step 2 Open the ejector lever in the front of the blade server. (See Figure 4.)

Step 3 Gently slide the server into the opening until you cannot push it any farther. At a certain point it will engage the ejector lever.

Step 4 Press the ejector lever as it catches the edge of the chassis and presses the blade server all the way in. Give a gentle push to the rear to be sure the server is fully seated into the midplane.

Step 5 Tighten the captive screw on the front of the blade to no more than 3 in-lbs. Tightening with bare fingers only is unlikely to lead to stripped or damaged captive screws.
