Removing the blade workstation from a BladeCenter unit Attention: v To maintain proper system cooling, do not operate the BladeCenter unit without a blade workstation, blade server, expansion unit, or blade filler installed in each blade bay. v Note the bay number. Reinstalling a blade workstation into a different bay than the one from which it was removed could have unintended consequences. Some configuration information and update options are established according to bay number; if you reinstall the blade workstation into a different bay, you might have to reconfigure the blade workstation. To remove the blade workstation from a BladeCenter unit, complete the following steps. The appearance of your BladeCenter unit might be different, see the documentation for your BladeCenter unit for additional information. Release handles (open) 1. Read the safety information that begins on page vii and "Installation guidelines" on page 13. 2. (BladeCenter T and HT units only) Remove the bezel assembly on the BladeCenter T or HT unit. For detailed instructions for removing the bezel assembly, see the Installation and User's Guide that comes with the BladeCenter T or HT unit. 3. If the blade workstation is operating, shut down the operating system; then, press the power-control button (behind the blade workstation control panel door) to turn off the blade workstation (see "Turning off the blade workstation" on page 6 for more information). Attention: Wait at least 30 seconds, until the hard disk drives stop spinning, before proceeding to the next step. 4. Pull the two release handles to the open position as shown in the illustration. The blade workstation moves out of the bay approximately 0.6 cm (0.25 inch). 5. Pull the blade workstation out of the bay. 6. Place either a blade filler or another blade workstation in the bay within 1 minute. 16 BladeCenter HC10 Type 7996: Problem Determination and Service Guide
