Complete the following steps to install an I/O expansion card: 1. Read the safety information beginning on page vii and "Installation guidelines" on page 21. 2. Shut down the operating system, turn off the blade server, and remove the blade server from the BladeCenter unit (see "Removing the blade server from the BladeCenter unit" on page 22 for information). 3. Carefully lay the blade server on a flat, static-protective surface. 4. Open the blade server cover (see "Opening the blade server cover" on page 24 for instructions) and lift it off the blade server. 5. Remove the two screws near connector J8H1 (or connector J4H1, if you are installing an I/O expansion card in I/O expansion location 2) that secure the I/O board to the unit, as shown in the illustration. 6. Install the I/O expansion card: a. Install the I/O expansion card tray. Secure the tray to the I/O board with the four screws from the option kit, as shown in the illustration. b. Orient the I/O expansion card as shown in the illustration. c. Slide the notch in the narrow end of the card into the raised hook on the tray; then, gently pivot the wide end of the card into the I/O expansion card connectors, as shown in the illustration. 7. See the documentation that comes with the I/O expansion card for device-driver and configuration information to complete the installation of the I/O expansion card. Some documentation might also be on the IBM BladeCenter Documentation CD or the IBM BladeCenter T Documentation CD that comes with the blade server. 34 BladeCenter HS40 Type 8839: Installation and User's Guide
