1. Hold the cover in the mounting position and slide it toward the bulkhead end of the cage. 2. Hold the PCI card cage above the chassis mounting position, such that the bulkhead end of the cage is toward the server rear panel. (See Figure 6-54.) 3. Hold the PCI card cage release lever in the raised position and lower the PCI card cage into the server chassis. 4. Press the PCI card cage release lever into the lowered position to lock the PCI card cage into the server chassis. 5. Reconnect the cables to the PCI card. Removing and Replacing PCI Cards The server can contain up to four PCI cards. PCI cards are located in the PCI card cage. The HP 9000 rp3410 provides two 64-bit, 133 MHz PCI-X card sockets and the HP 9000 rp3440 server provides four 64-bit, 133 MHz PCI-X card sockets. WARNING! Ensure that the server is powered off and all the power sources have been disconnected from the server before removing or replacing a PCI card. Voltages are present at various locations within the server whenever an AC power source is connected. This voltage is present even when the main power switch is in the off position. Failure to observe this warning can result in personal injury or damage to equipment. CAUTION: Observe all ESD safety precautions before attempting this procedure. Failure to follow ESD safety precautions can result in damage to the server. Carefully read the following information concerning PCI slot configuration. Inserting a PCI card into a slot that is not configured to accept it, can cause operation failure or the PCI card to operate at less than optimum speed. PCI slots are numbered 1 through 4. See the labels on the rear panel of the chassis for correct PCI slot number identification. Removing a PCI or Graphics Card To remove a PCI or graphics card from the server, follow these steps: CAUTION: Record the location of all PCI cards as they are installed. Depending on the operating system, replacing the PCI card in a different location might cause boot failure. 1. Remove the PCI card cage. (See "Removing the PCI Card Cage" (page 167).) 2. Disconnect any cables that are connected to the PCI card. 3. Unscrew the bulkhead screw and remove the card holder (if necessary) to enable insertion of the card. 4. Grasp the edges of the PCI card being removed and gently rock the card releasing the connector from the PCI backplane connector. Place the removed PCI card in an electrostatic container.

1.
Hold the cover in the mounting position and slide it toward the bulkhead end of the cage.
2.
Hold the PCI card cage above the chassis mounting position, such that the bulkhead end of
the cage is toward the server rear panel. (See
Figure 6-54
.)
3.
Hold the PCI card cage release lever in the raised position and lower the PCI card cage into
the server chassis.
4.
Press the PCI card cage release lever into the lowered position to lock the PCI card cage into
the server chassis.
5.
Reconnect the cables to the PCI card.
Removing and Replacing PCI Cards
The server can contain up to four PCI cards. PCI cards are located in the PCI card cage.
The HP 9000 rp3410 provides two 64-bit, 133 MHz PCI-X card sockets and the HP 9000 rp3440
server provides four 64-bit, 133 MHz PCI-X card sockets.
WARNING!
Ensure that the server is powered off and all the power sources have been
disconnected from the server before removing or replacing a PCI card.
Voltages are present at various locations within the server whenever an AC power source is
connected. This voltage is present even when the main power switch is in the off position.
Failure to observe this warning can result in personal injury or damage to equipment.
CAUTION:
Observe all ESD safety precautions before attempting this procedure. Failure to
follow ESD safety precautions can result in damage to the server.
Carefully read the following information concerning PCI slot configuration. Inserting a PCI card
into a slot that is not configured to accept it, can cause operation failure or the PCI card to operate
at less than optimum speed. PCI slots are numbered 1 through 4. See the labels on the rear panel
of the chassis for correct PCI slot number identification.
Removing a PCI or Graphics Card
To remove a PCI or graphics card from the server, follow these steps:
CAUTION:
Record the location of all PCI cards as they are installed. Depending on the operating
system, replacing the PCI card in a different location might cause boot failure.
1.
Remove the PCI card cage. (See
“Removing the PCI Card Cage” (page 167)
.)
2.
Disconnect any cables that are connected to the PCI card.
3.
Unscrew the bulkhead screw and remove the card holder (if necessary) to enable insertion
of the card.
4.
Grasp the edges of the PCI card being removed and gently rock the card releasing the
connector from the PCI backplane connector. Place the removed PCI card in an electrostatic
container.
