Complete the parts replacement

Go through the checklist to complete parts replacement

To complete the parts replacement, do the following:

  1. Make sure that all components have been reassembled correctly and that no tools or loose screws are left inside your server.

  2. Properly route and secure the cables in the server. Refer to the cable connecting and routing information for each component.

  3. Reinstall the air baffles. See Air baffle and air flow sensor board replacement.
    Note

    For proper cooling and airflow, reinstall the air baffle before powering on the server. Operating the server with the air baffle removed might damage server components.

  4. Reinstall the top cover. See Install the top cover.

  5. Reinstall the bottom cover. See Install the bottom cover.

  6. If necessary, reinstall the node to the enclosure or mount. See Configuration guide.

  7. Reconnect the power cords and any cables that you removed.

  8. Install the I/O fillers when the connectors are not used. The connectors could be damaged without proper protection of the fillers. See Front I/O fillers and Rear I/O filler.

  9. If applicable, install the header when the power connector is not used. The connector could be damaged without proper protection.

    1. Locate the power connector. See Rear view.
    2. Insert the header to the power connector which is not used.
    3. Fasten two captive screws to secure the header.
