Removing the Xeon Phi 5110P/7120P Cards

WARNING:

Working on systems that are still connected to a power supply can be

extremely dangerous.

CAUTION:

The sled must be operated with the cover installed to ensure proper

cooling.

CAUTION:

To ensure proper airflow in the PowerEdge C8000 server enclosure, if

a sled module is removed it should be immediately replaced with another sled or
sled blank.

CAUTION:

Operating the system for extended periods of time without a sled blank

installed can cause the PowerEdge C8000 server enclosure to overheat.

CAUTION:

Xeon Phi cards can only be installed in the slots on the GPGPU card

risers. Do not attempt to install Xeon Phi cards directly into the riser connector on
the system board.

CAUTION:

When replacing the back Intel Xeon Phi 5110P/7120P card, ensure that

the back GPGPU card riser is installed on the sled cover with the proper screw
holes. If the GPGPU card riser is not installed with the correct screw holes, the
GPGPU card will not seat properly into the riser connector. Be sure the card riser
is installed through the "type A" screw holes. See "Installing the Back GPGPU Card
Riser" on page 271
for the location of the screw holes.

NOTE:

The procedure for removing the Xeon Phi 5110P and 7120P cards are

similar.

1 Remove the sled from the enclosure. See "Removing a Sled" on page 155.
2 Open the sled. See "Removing the Sled Cover" on page 181.
3 Remove the five M3 screws securing the top cover. See Figure 3-77.
4 Lift the top cover from the sled cover. See Figure 3-77.
