rack while the bottom housing (containing all internal components) should be placed on a  
sturdy, at surface.

2. Shut down the server.

shut down the server before opening it. After you shut down the server, internal  
components can be very hot. Let the server cool down before continuing.  
3. Write down the server’s serial number, which is located on the back panel. If it is  
necessary to set up the server’s software after you replace a single-slot riser card, you  
will be asked for the serial number at login.
