Installing the cover
The following information describes the cover installation procedure.
Screws
To install the server cover:
1.Clear any cables that might impede the replacement of the clear shield or the cover.
2.Install the clear shield, if it was removed.
Note: Thermal considerations require that the clear shield be installed before operating the server.
3.Install the cover by placing it into position and sliding it forward. Make sure the cover engages the tabs at the front and rear of the server.
Attention: Before sliding the cover forward make sure that all of the tabs on the cover will engage the ledge at the front of the server properly. If all of the tabs do not engage the ledge properly, it will be extremely difficult to remove the cover.
4.Install the screws and secure the cover as shown.
5.Reinstall the server in the rack (see “Rack installation” on page 43).
6.Reconnect the power cord and all external cables to the server, then plug the power cords into electrical outlets.
I/O connector locations and ports
The following illustration shows the input/output connectors (ports) and the expansion slots on the rear of the server. For pin assignments and other details about these connectors, see “Input/Output ports” on page 62.
