2 Upgrading Tools and Supplies Needed • Phillips† (cross head) screwdriver (#1 bit and #2 bit) • Jumper removal tool or needle nosed pliers • Pen or pencil • Antistatic wrist strap and conductive foam pad (recommended) Warnings and Cautions These warnings and cautions apply throughout this chapter. Only a technically qualified person should configure the server board. WARNING Hazardous conditions, devices & cables: Hazardous electrical conditions may be present on power, telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the server and disconnect the power cord, telecommunications systems, networks, and modems attached to the server before opening it. Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage can result. CAUTIONS System power on/off: The power button DOES NOT turn off the system AC power. To remove power from system, you must unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet. Make sure the AC power cord is unplugged before you open the chassis, add, or remove any components. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) & ESD protection: ESD can damage disk drives, boards, and other parts. We recommend that you perform all procedures in this chapter only at an ESD workstation. If one is not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis groundany unpainted metal surfaceon your server when handling parts. ESD and handling boards: Always handle boards carefully. They can be extremely sensitive to ESD. Hold boards only by their edges. After removing a board from its protective wrapper or from the server, place the board component side up on a grounded, static free surface. Use a conductive foam pad if available but not the board wrapper. Do not slide board over any surface. Installing or removing jumpers: A jumper is a small plastic encased conductor that slips over two jumper pins. Some jumpers have a small tab on top that you can grip with your fingertips or with a pair of fine needle nosed pliers. If your jumpers do not have such a tab, take care when using needle nosed pliers to remove or install a jumper; grip the narrow sides of the jumper with the pliers, never the wide sides. Gripping the wide sides can damage the contacts inside the jumper, causing intermittent problems with the function controlled by that jumper. Take care to grip with, but not squeeze, the pliers or other tool you use to remove a jumper, or you may bend or break the stake pins on the board. 19

Warnings and Cautions
These warnings and cautions apply throughout this chapter.
Only a technically qualified person
should configure the server board.
WARNING
Hazardous conditions, devices & cables
:
Hazardous electrical conditions may be present
on power, telephone, and communication cables.
Turn off the server and disconnect the power
cord, telecommunications systems, networks, and modems attached to the server before opening it.
Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage can result.
CAUTIONS
System power on/off:
The power button DOES NOT turn off the system AC power.
To remove
power from system, you must unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet.
Make sure the AC
power cord is unplugged before you open the chassis, add, or remove any components.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) & ESD protection:
ESD can damage disk drives, boards,
and other parts.
We recommend that you perform all procedures in this chapter only at an ESD
workstation.
If one is not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist
strap attached to chassis ground
any unpainted metal surface
on your server when
handling parts.
ESD and handling boards:
Always handle boards carefully.
They can be extremely sensitive
to ESD.
Hold boards only by their edges.
After removing a board from its protective wrapper or
from the server, place the board component side up on a grounded, static free surface.
Use a
conductive foam pad if available but not the board wrapper.
Do not slide board over any surface.
Installing or removing jumpers:
A jumper is a small plastic encased conductor that slips
over two jumper pins.
Some jumpers have a small tab on top that you can grip with your fingertips
or with a pair of fine needle nosed pliers.
If your jumpers do not have such a tab, take care when
using needle nosed pliers to remove or install a jumper; grip the narrow sides of the jumper with
the pliers, never the wide sides.
Gripping the wide sides can damage the contacts inside the
jumper, causing intermittent problems with the function controlled by that jumper.
Take care to
grip with, but not squeeze, the pliers or other tool you use to remove a jumper, or you may bend or
break the stake pins on the board.
