Removal and replacement procedures 16
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, be sure that the
rack is adequately stabilized before extending a component from the rack.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, be careful when pressing the server
rail-release latches and sliding the server into the rack. The sliding rails could pinch your
fingers.
3. After performing the installation or maintenance procedure, slide the server back into the rack by
pressing the server rail-release latches.
NOTE: The release latches will lock into place when the rails are fully extended.
Power down the server
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, electric shock, or damage to the
equipment, remove the power cord to remove power from the server. The front panel
Power On/Standby button does not completely shut off system power. Portions of the
power supply and some internal circuitry remain active until AC power is removed.
IMPORTANT: If installing a hot-plug device, it is not necessary to power down the server.
1. Shut down the OS as directed by the OS documentation.
2. Press the Power On/Standby button to place the server in standby mode. When the server enters
standby power mode, the system power LED changes to amber.
3. Disconnect the power cords.
The system is now without power.
