Chapter 3 Maintaining the Sun Fire X4100 Server 3-5
3.2.4 Removing the Front Cover
1. Open the door to the fan bay. See FIGURE 3-4.
2. While holding the fan bay door open, slide the front cover toward the front of the
chassis approximately 0.25 inch (6 mm).
3. Raise the rear edge of the cover first and then lift it off of the chassis.
Note – When you remove any cover, the intrusion switch that is on the front I/O
board automatically powers down the system to standby power mode.
Note – When you replace the front cover, place the front edge on the chassis first,
then set it down into the keyed slots on the chassis sides before sliding it back.
Note – For Sun Fire X4100 servers with the factory-configured option for four
hard disk drives: You must remove the top two hard disk drives before reinstalling
the front cover to provide clearance for the front cover to slide on the chassis.
Reinstall the top two hard disk drives after you reinstall the front cover.
