Use this information to install the chassis bulkhead.
This procedure should be performed only by trained service technicians.
Before you install the chassis bulkhead, complete the following steps:
- Read Safety and Installation guidelines.
- If the compute node is installed in a Lenovo Flex System chassis, remove it (see Removing a compute node from a chassis for instructions).
- Carefully lay the compute node on a flat, static-protective surface, orienting the compute node with the bezel pointing toward you.
To install the chassis bulkhead, complete the following steps.
- Remove the cover (see Removing the compute node cover).
- Remove the air baffles.
- Remove the center partition (see Removing the center partition).
- Remove the fabric connectors (see Removing a fabric connector).
- Position the bulkhead in the chassis.
- Using a T8 Torx screwdriver, install the screws that secure the bulkhead to the sides of the chassis.
- Carefully place the chassis on the side with the front handle side up.
- Using a T8 Torx screwdriver, install the screws that secure the bulkhead to the bottom of the chassis.
- Carefully return the chassis to the bottom-side-down orientation.
- Install the fabric connectors (see Installing a fabric connector).
- Install the center partition (see Installing the center partition).
- Install the air baffles.
Install the air baffles with the arrow indicating air airflow direction pointing to the rear of the compute node.
To maintain proper system cooling, do not operate the compute node without the center partition installed in the compute node and the air baffles installed over the DIMM connectors.
After you install the chassis bulkhead, complete the following steps:
- Install the cover onto the compute node (see Installing the compute node cover for instructions).
- Install the compute node into the chassis (see Installing a compute node in a chassis for instructions).
