Replacing the cover

Use this information to replace the cover.

Make sure that all adapters and other server components are installed and seated correctly and that you have not left loose tools or parts inside the server.
Important: Before you slide the cover forward, make sure that all the tabs on the front, rear, and side of the cover engage the chassis correctly. If all the tabs do not engage the chassis correctly, it will be very difficult to remove the cover later.

To replace the server cover, complete the following steps.

  1. Position the cover on top of the server.
  2. Slide the cover toward the front of the server.
