Installing an Accessory Board
Use this procedure to install the accessory board, observing the installation guidelines listed earlier.
NOTE For information about a specific PCI board type, refer to the Readme file, Tested
Products List, or Configuration Advisor on your HP Netserver Navigator CD-ROM.
1. Log off all users and, if necessary, back up files.
2. Press the power switch on the HP Netserver control panel to turn off power when prompted by
the operating system.
3. Pull out the anti-tip foot at the bottom of the rack, then slowly slide the HP Netserver chassis out
from the rack as far as it can be extended.
It is not necessary to remove the HP Netserver from the rack to install an accessory board.
4. Disconnect the power cords and any external cables connected to the system.
If necessary, label each one to expedite reassembly.
WARNING The power supply will continue to provide standby current to the Netserver until
the power is disconnected.
5. Remove the top cover.
CAUTION Wear a wrist-strap and use a static-dissipating work surface connected to the
chassis when handling components. Ensure the metal of the wrist-strap contacts
your skin.
6. Read the documentation included with the accessory board and follow any special instructions.
NOTE Adding a PCI-to-PCI bridge board to the HP Netserver may alter the Netserver's
boot order. This boot order can be changed using the Setup Utility (press [F2]
during the boot process). Refer to "Boot Priority" in Chapter 2.
7. Remove the PCI card cage:
a. Disconnect the PCI card cage fan from the system board.
b. Grip the PCI card cage by the fan and back edge, and firmly lift the cage straight up to
remove it. In lifting the card cage, you will feel initial resistance as the riser card disconnects
from the system board.
