Installing and removing a mezzanine board
This server has two types of optional mezzanine boards. They include a
2-channel SAS mezzanine board and a 2-channel SAS mezzanine board with
RAID and battery backup.
To install an optional mezzanine board:
1 Follow the instructions in “Preventing static electricity discharge” on
page 28 . Make sure that you turn off the server, then unplug the power
cord(s) and all other cables connected to the server.
2 Follow the instructions in “Opening the server case” on page 29 .
3 Set the chassis on its side to make it easier to work on.
4 Determine which connector the mezzanine board fits (PCI-E or PCI-X) and
position the board accordingly.
5 Align the holes on one side of the board with the plastic standoffs (1) and
the mezzanine board slot.
6 Push down on the board (2) to seat it in the mezzanine board slot and onto
the plastic standoffs until the retaining tabs snap into place.
7 Plug one end of a mini-SAS cable into one connector on the mezzanine
board and the other end into the mini-SAS connector on the hot-swap
backplane.
