Use the installation guidelines to install the Lenovo NeXtScale nx360 M5 water-cooled
technology tray Type 5467, Lenovo NeXtScale n1200 Enclosure Types
5468 and 5469.
Attention: Static electricity that is released
to internal server components when the server is powered-on might
cause the system to halt, which might result in the loss of data.
To avoid this potential problem, always use an electrostatic-discharge
wrist strap or other grounding system when removing or installing
a hot-swap device.
Before you install optional devices, read
the following information:
- Read the safety information in Safety and Handling static-sensitive devices. This information will help you work safely.
- Make sure that the devices that you are installing are supported.
For a list of supported optional devices for the server, see the IBM ServerProven website.
- When you install your new server, take the opportunity to download
and apply the most recent firmware updates. This step will help to
ensure that any known issues are addressed and that your server is
ready to function at maximum levels of performance. To download firmware
updates for your server, go to the Fix Central website.
Important: Some cluster solutions require specific code levels
or coordinated code updates. If the device is part of a cluster solution,
verify that the latest level of code is supported for the cluster
solution before you update the code.
For additional information
about tools for updating, managing, and deploying firmware, see the
ToolsCenter for System x and BladeCenter at the IBM ToolsCenter website
- Before you install optional hardware, make sure that the server
is working correctly. Start the server, and make sure that the operating
system starts, if an operating system is installed, or that a 19990305
error code is displayed, indicating that an operating system was not
found but the server is otherwise working correctly. If the server
is not working correctly, see Running the Running DSA Preboot diagnostic programs for information
about how to run diagnostics.
- Observe good housekeeping in the area where you are working. Place
removed covers and other parts in a safe place.
- Do not attempt to lift an object that you think is too heavy for
you. If you have to lift a heavy object, observe the following precautions:
- Make sure that you can stand safely without slipping.
- Distribute the weight of the object equally between your feet.
- Use a slow lifting force. Never move suddenly or twist when you
lift a heavy object.
- To avoid straining the muscles in your back, lift by standing
or by pushing up with your leg muscles.
- Make sure that you have an adequate number of properly grounded
electrical outlets for the server, monitor, and other devices.
- Back up all important data before you make changes to disk drives.
- Have a small flat-blade screwdriver, a small Phillips screwdriver,
and a T8 torx screwdriver available.
- You do not have to turn off the server to install or replace hot-swap
power supplies, hot-swap fans, or hot-plug Universal Serial Bus (USB)
devices. However, you must turn off the server before you perform
any steps that involve removing or installing adapter cables and you
must disconnect the power source from the server before you perform
any steps that involve removing or installing a riser card.
- Blue on a component indicates touch points, where you can grip
the component to remove it from or install it in the server, open
or close a latch, and so on.
- Orange on a component or an orange label on or near a component
indicates that the component can be hot-swapped, which means that
if the server and operating system support hot-swap capability, you
can remove or install the component while the server is running. (Orange
can also indicate touch points on hot-swap components.) See the instructions
for removing or installing a specific hot-swap component for any additional
procedures that you might have to perform before you remove or install
the component.
- When you are finished working on the server, reinstall all safety
shields, guards, labels, and ground wires.
