Legacy I/O Board

The Legacy I/O Board is plugged into the I/O Baseboard in the rear of the chassis.
It is accessible only when you remove or lift the non-hot plug PCI adapter board
cover.

Removing the Legacy I/O Board

To remove the Legacy I/O Board, complete the following procedure:
1. Observe all safety and ESD precautions for handling electronic
components.
2. Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the system.
3. Power down the server by pressing and holding the Power button on the
Front Control Panel. You may have to hold the Power button down for
several seconds. Removing the power cords ensures that the server is not
under standby power.
WARNING Make sure that the rack is anchored securely, so it will not tip
when the server chassis is extended.
4. Pull the chassis out of the rack as far as it will go.
5. Label and disconnect all peripheral cables attached to the Legacy I/O
board's back panel on the back of the system.
6. Loosen the two thumbscrews in the back of the chassis that secure the rear
cover.
7. Lift the rear cover to expose the non-hot plug PCI adapter board cover.
8. Loosen the screw that secures the non-hot plug PCI adapter board cover.
9. Grasp the cover by its exposed, long side and lift the cover away from the
chassis. You can completely remove the cover if you want by unseating
the slotted hinge. Access is now available to the Legacy I/O board.
10. Release the plastic retaining mechanism (I/O Card Guide) that secures the
end of the board nearest the front of the chassis.
11. Loosen and remove the screw that secures the end of the board at the rear
of the chassis.
12. Carefully grasp the board and gently slide it up so that you can access the
cables described in the next two steps.
