Remove the cooling shroud. 5. Remove the screw securing the iDRAC ports card to the back of the chassis. 6. Pull the iDRAC ports card to disengage it from the iDRAC ports card connector and remove the card from the chassis. 7. If you are not replacing the iDRAC ports card, insert the filler bracket and secure it with a screw. NOTE: Filler brackets must be installed over empty card slots to maintain FCC certification of the system. The brackets also keep dust and dirt out of the system and aid in proper cooling and airflow inside the system. 8. Install the cooling shroud. 9. Close the system. 10. If applicable, place the system upright on a flat, stable surface and rotate the system feet outward. 11.
