HP Cluster Platform Server and Workstation Overview

Note:
When the server powers down, the Power button LED changes from green to amber,
indicating Standby mode. In Standby mode, the server removes power from most electronics
and drives, but portions of the power supply and some internal circuitry remain active until
AC power is removed.
3. Disconnect the AC power cord, first from the AC outlet and then from the server.
4. Remove the server from the rack, as shown in Section 3.8.1.
5. Remove the access panel from the server, as shown in Figure 3-57, and locate the PCI slot.
6. Disconnect any cables connected to the expansion board.
7. Using the callouts in Figure 3-59 as a guide, press the PCI card retaining clip toward the
front of the server to lock it in the open position (see callout 1).
