Completing the memory expansion module installation | IBM 71453RU

2.If the server is in a rack, at the back of the server, pull back the cable-management arm to gain access to the rear of the server and the power supply.

3.If you are installing a hot-swap power supply into an empty bay, remove the power-supply filler panel from the power-supply bay.

4.Touch the static-protective package that contains the hot-swap power supply to any unpainted metal surface on the server; then, remove the power supply from the package and place it on a static-protective surface.

5.Grasp the handle on the rear of the power supply and slide the power supply forward into the power-supply bay until it clicks. Make sure that the power supply connects firmly into the power-supply connector.

6.Route the power cord through the power cord retention clip so that it does not accidentally become disconnected.

7.Connect the power cord for the new power supply to the power-cord connector on the power supply.

8.Connect the other end of the power cord to a properly grounded electrical outlet.

9.Make sure that the ac power LED and the dc power LED on the power supply are lit, indicating that the power supply is operating correctly. The two green LEDs are to the right of the power-cord connector.

10.(IBM Business Partners only) Restart the server. Confirm that it starts correctly and recognizes the newly installed devices, and make sure that no error LEDs are lit.

11.(IBM Business Partners only) Complete the additional steps in “Instructions for IBM Business Partners” on page 29.

Completing the memory expansion module installation

To complete the memory expansion module option installation, complete the following steps:

1.Reinstall the system-board tray (see “Replacing the memory expansion module system-board tray” on page 91).

2.Reinstall the memory expansion module bezel (see “Replacing the memory expansion module bezel” on page 92).
