Chapter 4. Installing options This chapter provides instructions to help you install options in the server. Some option-removal instructions are provided in case you need to remove one option to install another. For a list of supported options for the server, see the ServerProven® list at http://www.ibm.com/pc/compat/. Installation guidelines Before you begin to install options in the server, read the following information: v Become familiar with the information provided in "Handling static-sensitive devices" on page 80, and "Safety information" on page 257. These guidelines will help you work safely with the server and options. v Make sure that you have an adequate number of properly grounded electrical outlets for the server, monitor, and other devices that you will connect to the server. v Back up all important data before you make changes to disk drives. v Have a small flat-blade screwdriver available. v You do not need to turn off the server to install or replace hot-swap power supplies, hot-swap fans, or hot-plug Universal Serial Bus (USB) devices. v Blue on a component indicates touch points, where a you can grip t he component to remove it from or install it in the server, open or close a latch, and so on. v Orange on a component or an orange label on or near a component indicates that the component can be hot-swapped, which means that if the server and operating system support hot-swap capability, you can remove or install the component while the server is running. (Orange can also indicate touch points on hot-swap components.) See the instructions for removing or installing a specific hot-swap component for any additional procedures that you might have to perform before you remove or install the component. v For a list of supported options for the server, go to http://www.ibm.com/pc/compat/.
