Removal and replacement procedures 40
Because mezzanine cards are supported on multiple server blade models, the mezzanine card may have
captive screws that are not required to secure it to the server blade. When installing a mezzanine card in this
server blade, only two captive screws are required.
To remove the component:
1. Power down the server blade (on page 28).
2. Remove the server blade (on page 29).
3. Remove the access panel (B-side) ("Access panel (B-side)" on page 32).
4. Remove the interposer board ("Interposer board" on page 47).
5. Remove the mezzanine card.
To replace the component:
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the server blade, apply pressure over the mezzanine
connector when installing the mezzanine card. Do not apply pressure to the edges of the card.
