Completing the parts replacement
This topic provides instructions to help you complete the parts replacement and turn on your server.
To complete the parts replacement, you must properly route the cables inside the server, reinstall the server
cover, reconnect all the external cables and, for some devices, update the rmware and run the Setup Utility
program to do further setup.
Reinstalling the server cover and reconnecting cables
Attention: Do not open your server or attempt any repair before reading and understanding the “Safety information”
on page iii and “Guidelines” on page 83.
This topic provides instructions on how to reinstall the server cover and reconnect cables to your server.
Attention: For proper cooling and airow, reinstall the server cover before turning on the server. Operating
the server for extended periods of time (more than 30 minutes) with the server cover removed might
damage server components.
Before you begin, print all the related instructions or ensure that you can view the PDF version on another
computer for reference.
Note: Depending on the model, your server might look slightly different from the illustrations in this topic.
To reinstall the server cover and reconnect cables to your server, 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. Make sure that all internal cables are routed correctly and secured by any cable clips or ties in the
server. Keep cables clear of the hinges and sides of the server chassis to avoid interference with
reinstalling the server cover.
3. If you have removed the front bezel, reinstall it. See “Removing and reinstalling the front bezel” on
page 87
