2. Disconnect all power cords from electrical outlets.
3. Disconnect the power cords, Input/Output (I/O) cables, and all other cables that are connected to
the server.
4. Remove any locking device that secures the server cover, such as a padlock or an integrated cable
lock. See “Server locks” on page 25.
5. Loosen the thumbscrew that secures the server cover, and then slide the server cover to the rear
