Step 1. If rack-mounted, slide the HP server out from the rack until it stops. See “Accessing a
Rack-Mounted Server” on page 30.
Step 2. Remove the top cover from the chassis. See “Removing the Front Cover” on page 37.
Step 3. If the power LED is steady-on (power to slot is on), go to step 4. If the power LED is steady-off
(power to slot is off), go to step 5.
Step 4. To turn off power to the slot, pull up on the manual retention latch (MRL) located on the OLX
divider. The power LED turns steady-off. Figure 3-17 shows OLX divider components.
CAUTION Do not pull up on the MRL of a powered-on, occupied slot or your server will crash.
This procedure is for powering off a powered-on, unoccupied slot only.
Step 5. Ensure that the MRL is already open and insert the PCI-X card to be added into the powered-down
slot. Figure 3-18 shows the correct way to install a PCI-X card.
CAUTION When inserting the PCI-X card, be careful you do not accidentally touch an attention
button on the other OLX dividers—this initiates an undesired shutdown of another
PCI-X card/slot. If you push the wrong attention button, you have 5 seconds to cancel
the operation by pushing the attention button again.
Ensure that you fully seat the card into the slot or undesired results occur after
power is re-applied to the slot.
Step 6. Push the MRL down until it seats against the chassis wall.
Step 7. Turn the PCI-X card lock to the closed position to capture the PCI-X card and MRL into the closed
position.
Step 8. Press the attention button and the power LED starts to blink. Wait until the power LED goes from
blinking to steady-on.
NOTE After pushing the attention button, you have 5 seconds to cancel the operation by
pushing the attention button again.
Step 9. Replace the top cover. See “Replacing the Top Cover” on page 39.
Step 10. Push server all the way back into the rack until it stops.
