Removing the front bezel and top cover

You must remove the front bezel and top cover to access the internal components.

Caution!
The chassis cover protects the internal components. When you remove the cover, damage from electrostatic discharge is possible. For more information, see Protecting against ESD damage.

To remove the cover:

  1. Shut down the server and remove the AC power cords.
  2. For a stackable (desktop) configuration, remove any units stacked on top of the server you must access.
  3. Remove the bezel (plastic cover) on the front of the chassis. See figure Removing or replacing the front bezel.
    1. Press down on the two tabs on the top of the bezel.
    2. Tilt the bezel forward, and then lift it out.
  4. Loosen the screw latch for the top cover located on the back of the chassis. See figure Removing or replacing the cover.
  5. For a rack-mount setup, slide the server forward.

    Note: You might need to unplug some cables at the back of the server to get sufficient cable slack. Label all cables so you can easily reconnect them. See figure Messaging Application Server (back view).

  6. Slide the top cover towards the front of the server to release it, and then lift the cover off the chassis.
  7. The internal components are now accessible. See figure Messaging Application Server (internal view).

Caution!
For some procedures, you might need to remove the server from the rails. Ensure that you have a clear work area before you remove the server. For safety considerations, get another person to assist you with lifting the server.
