Preparation Procedures
To access some components and perform certain service procedures, you must do one or
more of the following:
• Extend the server from the rack.
If you are performing service procedures in an HP rack or third-party rack cabinet, use
the locking feature of the rack rails to support the server and gain access to internal
components.
• Power down the server.
If you must remove a server from a rack or a non-hot-plug component from a server,
power down the server.
• Remove the server from the rack.
If the rack environment, cabling configuration, or server location in the rack creates
awkward conditions, remove the server from the rack.
