See the documentation that accompanied the I/O module for information about its cable connections.

Server Modules

Your system can include up to 10 hot-pluggable server modules. Each server module can contain up to
two processors, two hard drives, six memory modules, and one daughter card.

Removing a Server Module

1 Ensure that the server module's power is off.

When a server module is powered off, its front-panel power indicator is amber. See Figure 1-3.

2 Press in the release latch on the inside of the upper handle. See Figure 3-11.
3 Pull out both the upper and the lower handles to eject the server module from the chassis.
4 Slide the server module out of the chassis.

NOTICE:

If you are permanently removing the server module, install a server module blank. Operating the system

for extended periods of time without a server module blank installed can cause the system to overheat.
