On the HP ProLiant ML530 G2 (VT5902)
The HP ProLiant ML530 has SCSI and Fibre Channel cards in the same physical slots. Slots
2-5 can contain SCSI or Fibre Channel cards. After completing step
2 on page 122, remove the
SCSI card(s) and install the Fibre Channel card(s), as follows:
1. From the rear of the HP ProLiant ML530 server, mark each SCSI cable with the port
position to which it is attached. This will make it easier to reattach them to the correct
SCSI ports later.
2. Disconnect the ProLiant power cords as a precaution. Disconnect all SCSI cables from the
SCSI adapters for easier access to the adapter cards.
3. If the HP ProLiant ML530 is mounted in a rack, slide the server out so that you can open
the top cover. Do not remove the server from the rails. If there is a stabilizer foot, extend it
so the enclosure does not tip forward.
4. Open the top cover, remove it, and set it aside.
5. Replace the SCSI cards in the following order:
a. Remove the SCSI card in slot 5 and install the first Fibre Channel card in slot 5 if
there is not already a Fibre Channel card in that slot.
b. Remove the SCSI card in slot 4 and install the second Fibre Channel card in slot 4 if
there is not already a Fibre Channel card in that slot.
c. Remove the SCSI card in slot 3 and install the third Fibre Channel card in slot 3 if
there is not already a Fibre Channel card in that slot.
d. Remove the SCSI card in slot 2 and install the fourth Fibre Channel card in slot 2 if
there is not already a Fibre Channel card in that slot.
Note Do not remove or replace the RAID card in slot 1 or the NIC card in slot 7.
Here is a snapshot of the IO panel showing slot numbers at the top:
6. After you install all of the Fibre Channel upgrade cards in the appropriate slots, make
sure the blue and black clips are firmly seated and locked in place on each slot.
