Insert the expansion board 4.

CAUTION:

To avoid the risk of damage to your system or expansion boards,

remove all AC power cords before installing or removing expansion boards. With

the front panel power switch in the Standby position, auxiliary power is still

connected to the PCI expansion slot and may damage the card.

Close the expansion slot latch to secure the board 5.

CAUTION:

Moving your server Power On/Standby switch to the Standby position

removes power from most areas of the server; this may take up to 30 seconds.

Portions of the power supply and some internal circuitry remain active until AC

power is removed.

IMPORTANT:

When you install a board, make sure you press firmly on the board so that

the entire connector seats properly in the riser board slot.

NOTE:

Some full-length PCI boards include a plastic adapter to allow full retention in

some shared slots. This adapter must be removed before installing the boards in the

ProLiant DL380 server.
