Installing
an
expansion
unit
The
following
illustration
shows
how
to
install
an
MPE
unit
on
the
blade
server;
the
procedure
for
installing
another
type
of
expansion
unit
on
a
blade
server
is
similar.
Note:
The
MPE
unit
must
be
installed
on
a
blade
server
and
must
not
be
installed
on
another
expansion
device.
To
install
the
MPE
unit
or
an
expansion
unit,
complete
the
following
steps:
1.
Read
the
safety
information
that
begins
on
page
“Safety”
on
page
v
and
“Installation
guidelines”
on
page
17.
2.
If
the
blade
server
cover
is
installed,
remove
it
(see
“Opening
the
blade
server
cover”
on
page
20
for
instructions).
3.
If
you
removed
the
blade
bezel
assembly,
install
it
(see
“Installing
the
bezel
assembly”
on
page
47
for
instructions).
4.
If
the
blade
expansion
connector
cover
on
the
blade
server
is
installed,
remove
it
by
pulling
the
cover
off
the
connector
(see
“Blade
server
connectors”
on
page
14).
5.
If
you
are
installing
a
new
expansion
unit,
touch
the
static-protective
package
that
contains
the
expansion
unit
to
any
unpainted
metal
surface
on
the
BladeCenter
unit
or
any
unpainted
metal
surface
on
any
other
grounded
rack
component;
then,
remove
the
expansion
unit
from
the
package.
6.
Orient
the
expansion
unit
above
the
blade
server.
7.
Lower
the
expansion
unit
so
that
the
slots
at
the
rear
slide
down
onto
the
cover
pins
at
the
rear
of
the
blade
server.
8.
Pivot
the
expansion
unit
closed.
The
connectors
on
the
expansion
unit
automatically
align
with
and
connect
to
the
connectors
on
the
blade
server
system
board.
9.
If
the
expansion
unit
has
an
extraction
device
(such
as
a
thumbscrew
or
a
lever),
use
it
to
secure
the
expansion
unit
on
the
blade
server;
otherwise,
press
the
expansion
unit
firmly
into
the
closed
position
until
it
clicks
into
place.
