Sled
CAUTION: To ensure proper airflow in the system, if a sled module is removed it
should be immediately replaced with another sled or sled blank.
CAUTION: Operating the system for extended periods of time without a sled blank
installed can cause the PowerEdge C8000 server enclosure to overheat. See
"Installing a Double-Wide Sled Blank" on page 157.
Removing a Sled
1 Power down the sled using OS commands or the Baseboard Management
Controller, and ensure that the sled's power is off.
When a sled is powered off, its front-panel power indicator is off.
See Figure 1-1.
2 Pull up on the compute sled release latch at the bottom of the sled to
disengage the sled from the server enclosure. See Figure 3-6.
3 Using the handle, slide the sled out of the enclosure. See Figure 3-6.
