Installing with a full-height server blade
The following instructions are valid ONLY IF you are installing your HP StorageWorks
Ultrium Tape Blade with a full-height server blade. If you are installing it with a half-height
server blade then go to step 3.
CAUTION:
To avoid damage to your tape blade or enclosure
• Always install the tape blade with the partner server installed and powered down
• Take special care when handling the tape blade to avoid damage to the
backplane connector.
• Do not pull out or install the tape blade while the partner server is running.
A Tape Blade supports one partner server blade, and a partner server blade supports
one Tape Blade.
When partnering the tape blade with a full-height server blade, an HP PCI Express
Mezzanine Pass-Thru Card may be required (part number: 431643-B21). The Mezzanine
Card must be installed in mezzanine 3 connector in the server blade.
NOTE:
The following instructions are valid for most installations. However, a few
full-height server blades allow different slot configurations. See the relevant server
blade guide for more information.
1. Identify the partner server blade to be installed with the HP StorageWorks Ultrium Tape
Blade. The tape blade is always located on the lower row of the enclosure. The two
blades always occupy a pair of slots, as follows:
