Installing the controller board

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to

the equipment, consult the safety information and user
documentation provided with the server before attempting the
installation.

Many servers are capable of providing energy levels that are
considered hazardous and are intended to be serviced only by
qualified personnel who have been trained to deal with these
hazards. Do not remove enclosures or attempt to bypass any
interlocks that may be provided for the purpose of removing these
hazardous conditions.

Remove the slot cover or open the hot-plug latch. Save the retaining screw if
