Removal and Replacement Procedures

This chapter provides subassembly/module-level removal and replacement procedures for system components. After completing all necessary removal and replacement procedures, verify that all components operate properly by running the appropriate diagnostic software:

For server blade components, run the Server Diagnostics Utility, available from the HP website:

www.hp.com

For server blade enclosure and power enclosure components, run the infrastructure diagnostics. Refer to Chapter 3, “Dia gnostic Tools,” for more information.

Safety Considerations

Electrostatic Discharge Information

A discharge of static electricity can damage static-sensitive devices or microcircuitry. Proper packaging and grounding techniques are necessary precautions to prevent damage. To prevent electrostatic damage, observe the following precautions:

Transport products in static-safe containers such as conductive tubes, bags, or boxes.

Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free stations.

Cover workstations with approved static-dissipating material. Use a wrist strap connected to the work surface and properly grounded tools and equipment.

Keep the work area free of nonconductive materials such as ordinary plastic assembly aids and foam packing.

Always be properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive component or assembly.

Use conductive field service tools.

Server Blade Warnings and Cautions

WARNING: To reduce the risk of shock or injury from high-current electrical energy, do not remove the server blade access panel while the server blade is installed in the server blade enclosure. Do not remove the server blade access panel and then install the server blade into the server blade enclosure.

HP ProLiant BL20p Generation 2 Server Blade Maintenance and Service Guide

2-1

Removal and Replacement Procedures

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from high-current electrical energy, do not remove the server blade access panel when power is applied through the HP ProLiant p-Class diagnostic station. Remove all power from the server blade before removing the access panel.

WARNING: Setting the server blade Power On/Standby button to the standby position removes power from most areas of the server blade. This process may take

30 seconds, during which time some internal circuitry remains active. To remove power completely, remove the server blade from the server blade enclosure.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the internal system components to cool before touching them.

CAUTION: When performing non-hot-plug operations, you must power down the server blade and/or the system. However, it may be necessary to leave the server blade powered up when performing other operations, such as hot-plug installations or troubleshooting.

Rack Warnings and Cautions

WARNING: The power supply enclosure and the server blade enclosure are very heavy. To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment:

Observe local occupational health and safety requirements and guidelines for manual material handling.

Remove hot-plug power supplies and server blades from their enclosures before installing or removing the enclosures.

Use caution and get help to lift and stabilize enclosures during installation or removal, especially when the enclosure is not fastened to the rack.

WARNING: Always use at least two people to lift a power supply enclosure or server blade enclosure into the rack. If the enclosure is being loaded into the rack above chest level, a third person MUST assist with aligning the enclosure with the rails while the other two people support the weight of the enclosure.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, be sure that:

The leveling jacks of the rack are extended to the floor.

The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.

The stabilizers are attached to the rack if it is a single rack installation.

The racks are coupled in multiple rack installations.

WARNING: When installing the server blade enclosure in a telco rack, be sure that the rack frame is adequately secured to the building structure.

Removal and Replacement Procedures

Server Blade Components

Use the procedures in this section to perform service events on ProLiant BL20p G2 server blades.

NOTE: Slate blue denotes serviceable parts, and port denotes hot-pluggable parts.

Server Blade Preparation

To service any internal server blade component, you must power down the server blade and remove it from the server blade enclosure.

CAUTION: Electrostatic discharge can damage electronic components. Be sure you are properly grounded before beginning any installation procedure. For more information, refer to the “Electrostatic Discharge Information” section in this chapter.

System power in server blades does not completely shut off with the front panel Power On/Standby switch or Integrated Lights-Out (iLO) Virtual Power Button feature. The function toggles between on and standby modes, rather than on and off. The standby position removes power from most electronics and the drives, but portions of the power supply and some internal circuitry remain active.

To service internal server blade components:

1.Identify the proper server blade in the server blade enclosure.

2.Remove power from the server blade in one of the following ways:

Use the Virtual Power Button feature in the iLO Remote Console to power down the server blade from a remote location. Be sure that the server blade is in standby mode by observing that the power LED is amber.

Press the Power On/Standby button on the front of the server blade. Be sure that the server blade is in standby mode by observing that the power LED is amber.
