a. Disconnect the power cord from the connector on the back of the failed power supply. b. Press the locking latch on the power-supply handle and raise the power-supply handle to the open position. c. Lift the failed power supply out of the bay. 5. Raise the handle on the new power supply to the open position. 6. Place the new power supply into the power-supply bay in the chassis and fully close the locking handle. 7. Connect one end of the power cord for the new power supply into the connector on the back of the power supply; route the power cord through the cable-management arm and connect the other end of the power cord into a properly grounded electrical outlet. 8. Make sure that the ac power LED on the rear of the power supply and the ac power LED on the top of the power supply are lit, indicating that the power supply is operating correctly. If the server is turned on, make sure that the dc power LED on the top of the power supply is lit also. If you have other options to install or remove, do so now; otherwise, go to "Completing the installation" on page 46. Installing an adapter The following notes describe the types of adapters that the server supports and other information that you must consider when installing an adapter: v Locate the documentation that comes with the adapter and follow those instructions in addition to the instructions in this section. If you must change the switch setting or jumper settings on the adapter, follow the instructions that come with the adapter. v See the documentation that comes with the operating system for information about enabling a hot-plug PCI slot. v Avoid touching the components and gold-edge connectors on the adapter. v The server scans devices and PCI slots to assign system resources in the following order: integrated Ethernet controller, integrated SAS controller, and then PCI slots 1 through 6. Note: To change the order in which the server scans devices and PCI slots, start the Configuration/Setup Utility program and select Start Options from the main menu. See "Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program" on page 52 for details about using the Configuration/Setup Utility program. v You do not have to turn off the server to install a hot-plug adapter in any of the PCI slots. However, you must turn off the server when performing any steps that involve installing or removing cables. v The optional Integrated xSeries Adapter (IXA) can be installed only in slot 2. You must move jumpers J35 and J40 on the IXA. For details about installing the IXA, see the documentation that comes with the adapter. v The PCI bus configuration is as follows: - Hot-plug, full-length PCI-X 2.0 266 MHz/64-bit slot 1 and slot 2. - Hot-plug, full-length PCI Express x8 (x8 lanes) slot 3 through slot 6. v The supported versions of Red Hat® Enterprise Linux®, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, and NetWare do not support the use of the hot-plug feature with the PCI Express slots. Install the necessary operating system updates from the vendor, when available. Chapter 2. Installing options 25
