PCI Card Installation
The hp Integrity cx2600 Server has four 64-bit, 133 MHz PCI-X accessory card sockets located in
a removable card cage. You must remove the PCI card cage before you can remove or install PCI
cards. The following sections describes how to remove and open the card cage, install PCI cards,
and reinstall the PCI card cage.
Removing the PCI Card Cage Assembly
To remove the PCI-X card cage assembly, follow these steps:
1. If rack-mounted, extend a slide-mounted server out from the rack until it stops. See
“Accessing a Rack-Mounted Server” (page 22).
2. Turn off the system. Disconnect all external cables.
3. If desired, remove the server from the rack and place it on an ESD-protected work surface.
See “Removing the Server From a Rack” (page 23).
WARNING! Ensure that the system is powered down and all power sources have been
disconnected from the server prior to removing or replacing the PCI card cage assembly.
Voltages and hazardous energy can be present at various locations within the server whenever
a power source is connected. This hazard is present even when the power switch is in the
off position.
Failure to observe this warning can result in personal injury or damage to equipment.
4. Remove the top cover from the chassis. See “Removing the Top Cover” (page 29).
CAUTION: Observe all ESD safety precautions while performing this procedure. Failure
to follow ESD safety precautions can result in damage to the server.
5. Pull up on the PCI card cage release lever (colored lever) and the back edge of the card cage,
and lift the card cage out of the server chassis (Figure 3-9).
