Use these guidelines to ensure that the blade server meets
the proper cooling and system reliability requirements.
- To ensure proper cooling, do not operate the BladeCenter chassis without a blade server
or blade filler installed in each blade server bay. See the documentation
for your BladeCenter chassis
for additional information.
- Each microprocessor socket always contains either a microprocessor
dust cover and heat sink filler or a microprocessor and heat sink.
If the blade server has only one microprocessor, it must be installed
in microprocessor socket 1.
- Make sure that the ventilation holes on the blade server are not
blocked.
- The blade server battery must
be operational. If the battery becomes defective, replace it immediately.
