Chapter 5 Replacing Cold-Swappable FRUs 5-3
Note – You can also use the Power On/Off button on the front of the server to
initiate a graceful system shutdown. This button is recessed to
prevent accidental server power-off. Use the tip of a pen to operate this button.
Refer to the Advanced Lights Out Management (ALOM) CMT Guide for more
information about the ALOM CMT poweroff command.
5.1.3 Extending the Server to the Maintenance Position
If the server is installed in a rack with the extendable slide rails that were supplied
with the server, use this procedure to extend the server to the maintenance position.
Note – Remove the server from the rack for all cold-swappable FRU replacement
procedures except the DIMMs, PCI cards, and the system controller.
1. (Optional) Issue the following command from the ALOM CMT sc> prompt to
locate the system that requires maintenance.
Once you have located the server, press the Locator LED button to turn it off.
2. Check to see that no cables will be damaged or interfere when the server is
extended.
Although the cable management arm (CMA) that is supplied with the server is
hinged to accommodate extending the server, ensure that all cables and cords are
capable of extending.
3. From the front of the server, release the slide rail latches on each side.
Pinch the green latches as shown in
FIGURE 5-1.
