Removing, and replacing components

This chapter contains the detailed procedures for replacing hardware components in the Lenovo Converged HX Series appliances.

Replaceable components consist of the following:

  • Structural parts: Purchase and replacement of structural parts (components, such as chassis assembly and top cover) is your responsibility. If Lenovo acquires or installs a structural component at your request, you will be charged for the service.
  • Consumable parts: Purchase and replacement of consumable parts (components, such as fan cage and blank fan filler) is your responsibility. If Lenovo acquires or installs a consumable component at your request, you will be charged for the service.
  • Tier 1 CRU: Replacement of Tier 1 CRUs is your responsibility. If Lenovo installs a Tier 1 CRU at your request, you will be charged for the installation.
  • Tier 2 CRU: You may install a Tier 2 CRU yourself or request Lenovo to install it, at no additional charge, under the type of warranty service that is designated for your server.

See Parts listing, Lenovo Converged HX Series Type 8695 to determine whether a component is a structural part, consumable part, Tier 1 CRU, or Tier 2 CRU.

For information about the terms of the warranty, see the Warranty Information document that comes with the server.
