Removing and Installing a UCS B200 M3 Blade Server
Installing a Cisco UCS B200 M3 Blade Server
UCS B200 M3 blade servers are interoperable in a UCS chassis with any other UCS blade servers,
including prior generation B200 M2 and B200 M1 servers, or other UCS B-Series blade servers. To
install a blade server, follow these steps:
Step 1 Grasp the front of the blade server and place your other hand under the blade to support it. See Figure 5.
Figure 5 Positioning a Blade Server in the Chassis
Step 2
Open the ejector lever in the front of the blade server.
Step 3 Gently slide the blade into the opening until you cannot push it any farther.
Step 4 Press the ejector lever so that it catches the edge of the chassis and presses the blade server all the way in.
Step 5 Tighten the captive screw on the front of the blade to no more than 3 in-lbs. Tightening with bare fingers
only is unlikely to lead to stripped or damaged captive screws.
Step 6 Power on the server. UCS Manager automatically reacknowledges, reassociates, and recommissions the
server, provided any hardware changes are allowed by the service profile.
