Installing the System Installing Additional Components WARNING Ensure that the system is powered off and all power sources have been disconnected from the server prior to attempting this procedure. NOTE Some restrictions apply to the mass storage devices that can be connected to the core I/O SCSI HBA. If you convert the server to duplex configuration, you cannot install external SCSI devices to the SCSI HBA core I/O controller. Accessing the SCSI Backplane Before adding the accessories required to convert the server from simplex to duplex, you must remove outer components to access the SCSI backplane. To gain access to the SCSI backplane, follow these steps: Step 1. If rack-mounted, slide the server out from the rack until it stops. See "Extend the Server from the Rack" on page 22. NOTE If the server is pedestal-mounted, you need not remove the pedestal to perform the simplex to duplex conversion. Proceed directly to the next step. Step 2. Remove the front bezel. (See "Removing the Front Bezel" on page 28.) Step 3. Remove the front cover. (See "Removing the Front Cover" on page 29.) Step 4. Remove the memory extender board. (See "Removing a Memory Extender Board" on page 55.) Step 5. Remove the processor extender board. (See "Removing the Processor Extender Board" on page 45.)
