Accessing the system board Note For information on removing the server cover, see "Preparing to install and remove options" on page 73. To access the system board, it helps to place the server on its side on a table. You might need to remove adapters, the air baffle, or cables that impede your access to components on the system board. When disconnecting cables, it is important to note where they attach, so you can correctly reattach them later. Removing and replacing the air baffle 1. There might be cables attached to the bottom of the air baffle. If so, disconnect these cables so that the air baffle can be moved. 2. Locate the two small latches on the air baffle that protrude through the holes on the rear of the server and the large latch that snaps into the metal bar. 3. Press all the latches down at the same time until they unlock and slide the air baffle toward the front of the server. 4. Tilt the air baffle as shown, and slide it out, under the metal bar and away from the microprocessor. 5. Remove the air baffle from the server. To replace the air baffle 1. Locate the air baffle as shown below, and attach it to the metal bar. 2. Rotate the air baffle toward the microprocessor until it is in position to slide to the rear along the metal bar. 3. Align the two small latches on the air baffle so that they protrude through the holes on the rear of the server. Press the latches down while pushing the baffle to the rear until it snaps into position. Make sure the large latch is latched into the metal bar. 4. Reconnect any cables that you disconnected from the baffle. 82 Netfinity Server HMM

Accessing the system board
Note
For information on removing the server cover, see
“Preparing to install and remove options” on page
73.
To access the system board, it helps to place the server
on its side on a table.
You might need to remove
adapters, the air baffle, or cables that impede your access
to components on the system board.
When disconnecting
cables, it is important to note where they attach, so you
can correctly reattach them later.
Removing and replacing the air baffle
1.
There might be cables attached to the bottom of the
air baffle.
If so, disconnect these cables so that the
air baffle can be moved.
2.
Locate the two small latches on the air baffle that
protrude through the holes on the rear of the server
and the large latch that snaps into the metal bar.
3.
Press all the latches down at the same time until they
unlock and slide the air baffle toward the front of the
server.
4.
Tilt the air baffle as shown, and slide it out, under the
metal bar and away from the microprocessor.
5.
Remove the air baffle from the server.
To replace the air baffle
1.
Locate the air baffle as shown below, and attach it to
the metal bar.
2.
Rotate the air baffle toward the microprocessor until it
is in position to slide to the rear along the metal bar.
3.
Align the two small latches on the air baffle so that
they protrude through the holes on the rear of the
server.
Press the latches down while pushing the
baffle to the rear until it snaps into position.
Make
sure the large latch is latched into the metal bar.
4.
Reconnect any cables that you disconnected from the
baffle.
