Removing a sled

Prerequisites

  1. Follow the safety guidelines listed in the Safety instructions section.
  2. Follow the procedure listed in the Before working inside your system section.

Steps

  1. Turn off the sled.
    NOTE: When a sled is turned off, the front-panel power indicator is OFF.
  2. Press the release button on the sled handle and rotate the sled handle away from the sled to disengage the sled from the interposer connectors.
  3. Slide the sled out of the enclosure.
    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.
    NOTE: For more information about the interposer connections, see Dell PowerEdge FX2 and FX2s Enclosure Owner’s Manual at Dell.com/poweredgemanuals.
