Installing an HP BladeSystem

c-Class enclosure

Before performing any server blade-specific procedures, install an

HP BladeSystem c-Class enclosure.

The most current documentation for server blades and other

HP BladeSystem components is available at the HP website

(http://www.hp.com/go/bladesystem/documentation).

Documentation is also available in the following locations:

Preparing the enclosure

HP BladeSystem enclosures ship with device bay dividers to support

half-height devices. To install a full-height device, remove the blanks

and the corresponding device bay divider.

CAUTION: To prevent improper cooling and thermal

damage, do not operate the server blade or the enclosure

unless all drive and device bays are populated with either

a component or a blank.

IMPORTANT: For optimal cooling and system

performance, configure the c7000 enclosure with ten fans

and configure the c3000 enclosure with six fans.

1. Remove the device bay blank.

2. Remove the three adjacent blanks.
