Removing the sled:
1. Turn off the nodes using the operating system commands, or the iDRAC, or the CMC.
The sled is powered off when all the nodes are turned off. When the sled power is off, its front-panel power indicator is off.
2. Turn off the sled using the CMC, and ensure that the sled power is off.
3. Press the release button on the sled handle.
The sled handle moves to open position.
4. Rotate the sled handle away from the sled to disengage the sled connectors from the enclosure midplane.
5. Slide the sled out of the enclosure.
CAUTION: To protect the I/O connector pins, install the I/O connector cover every time a sled is removed from the enclosure.
6. Install the I/O connector cover over the I/O connector.
CAUTION: If you are permanently removing the sled, install a sled blank. Operating the system for extended periods of time without a sled blank installed can cause the enclosure to overheat.
Installing the sled:
1. If you are installing a new sled, remove the I/O connector cover from the I/O connectors and save for future use.
2. Align the sled with the sled bay on the enclosure and slide the sled into the enclosure until the sled connectors engage with the enclosure midplane.
The sled handle rotates toward the enclosure as the sled slides into the enclosure.
3. Press the sled handle to closed position until the release button clicks into place.
4. Turn on the sled.
