Installing the blade workstation in a BladeCenter unit The following illustration shows how to install the blade workstation into a typical BladeCenter unit. To install a blade workstation in a BladeCenter unit, complete the following steps. Statement 21: CAUTION: Hazardous energy is present when the blade is connected to the power source. Always replace the blade cover before installing the blade. 1. Read the safety information that begins on page v and "Installation guidelines" on page 15 through "Handling static-sensitive devices" on page 15. 2. If you have not done so already, install any optional devices that you want, such as DIMMs, in the blade workstation. 3. Select the bay for the blade workstation. Notes: a. When any blade workstation is in blade bay 7 through 14 (in a BladeCenter unit) or in blade bays 5 through 8 (in a BladeCenter T unit), power modules must be present in all four power-module bays. b. To help ensure proper cooling, performance, and system reliability, make sure that each of the blade bays on the front of the BladeCenter unit has a blade workstation or filler blade installed. Do not operate a BladeCenter unit for more than 1 minute or a BladeCenter T unit for more than 20 minutes without a blade workstation or filler blade installed in each blade bay. 4. Make sure that the release levers on the blade workstation are in the open position (perpendicular to the blade workstation). 5. Slide the blade workstation into the blade bay until it stops. The spring-loaded doors, farther back in the bay, that cover the bay opening move out of the way as you insert the blade workstation. 6. Push the release levers on the front of the blade workstation to the closed position. 7. Turn on the blade workstation (see "Turning on the blade workstation" on page 11 for instructions). 24 BladeCenter HC10 Type 7996: Installation and User's Guide
