Installing a PCI riser-card assembly
To install a PCI riser-card assembly, complete the following steps:
1. Read the safety information that begins on page Safety and "Installation
guidelines" on page 30.
2. Turn off the server (see "Turning off the server" on page 21) and all attached
peripheral devices. Disconnect all power cords; then, disconnect all external
cables from the server.
3. Remove the top cover (see "Removing the server top cover" on page 33).
4. Install the adapter in the PCI riser-card assembly (see "Installing an adapter"
on page 46).
5. Align the PCI riser-card assembly with the PCI slot connector on the system
board and align nailheads with the slots on the chassis; then, press down firmly
until the riser-card assembly is seated correctly in the connector on the system
board.
If you have other devices to install or remove, do so now. Otherwise, go to
"Completing the installation" on page 65.
