Install the Datacenter Secure Control Module (DC-SCM)

Follow the instructions in this section to install the Datacenter Secure Control Module (DC-SCM).

About this task

Attention

  • Read Installation Guidelines and Safety inspection checklist to ensure that you work safely.

  • Power off the server and peripheral devices and disconnect the power cords and all external cables. See Power off the server.

  • Prevent exposure to static electricity, which might lead to system halt and loss of data, by keeping static-sensitive components in their static-protective packages until installation, and handling these devices with an electrostatic-discharge wrist strap or other grounding systems.

Procedure

  1. Touch the static-protective package that contains the DC-SCM to any unpainted surface on the outside of the server. Then, take the DC-SCM out of the package and place it on a static-protective surface.
  2. Install the DC-SCM into the chassis. Align the DC-SCM with the slot on system board, guiding pins on the chassis and the socket on the rear wall. Press it down until it’s fully seated.
