3. Rotate the free end of the adapter down under the tabs and onto the pins on the retainer brackets; then, press the adapter into the connector on the riser card and make sure that all the tabs on the latch brackets secure the adapter in place. 4. Replace the riser-card assembly (see "Installing the riser-card assembly" on page 85) 5. Install the cover (see "Installing the cover" on page 40). 6. Slide the server into the rack. 7. Connect the cables and power cords. 8. Turn on all attached devices and the server. 9. Restore the backup copy of the configuration to the Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine. If you do not have a backup copy of the configuration, see the documentation that comes with the Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine for information about installing the firmware and configuring the options. Note: When you start the server for the first time after you install a Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine, the start-up process will take several minutes longer than a typical start-up. Removing the ServeRAID SAS controller Attention: To avoid breaking the retaining clips or damaging the connectors, handle the clips gently. Note: The following illustration shows removing a ServeRAID-8k SAS controller; the ServeRAID-8k-l SAS controller does not have a battery. Battery cable Battery RAID controller Battery mounting tabs Battery mounting clips Battery cable connector To remove the ServeRAID SAS controller, complete the following steps: 1.
