Prepare the Unit
Power Off and Disconnect
If the unit is still running, power it down cleanly:
1. Use the Web Management Interface to shut down the
server (Maintenance > Reboot and Shutdown >
Shutdown).
2. When all the LEDs are off, disconnect the power cords.
3. Disconnect the remaining cables from the unit, noting
their locations.
Remove the Front Bezel
1. Carefully take hold of the front bezel and pull it straight
out from the appliance until the magnets release.
2. Set the bezel aside on a secure surface.
Remove the Drives
IMPORTANT: Overland recommends that you remove the disk
drives to reduce the unit’s weight prior to removal.
Remove all the drive carriers, noting from which slot they were
removed. Blank carriers can remain in their bays.
NOTE: Do not remove the disk drives from their carriers. Doing so
voids the drive warranty.
1. Press the release button on the right side of the carrier.
2. Using the built-in handle, pull the carrier out.
3. Number the carrier and set it on a secure surface.
4. Repeat Steps 1–3 for all the remaining drive carriers.
Remove Unit from Rack
WARNING: It is recommended that a mechanical lifter (or at
least two people) be used during rack installation or removal
to prevent injury.
WARNUNG: Um Verletzungen zu vermeiden, empfehlen wir
zur Rack-Installation oder -Deinstallation die Nutzung einer
mechanischen Hebehilfe (oder mindestens zwei Personen).
AVERTISSEMENT: Pour éviter toute blessure il est
recommande qu'un monte-charge (ou deux personnes au
moins) soit utilisé lors de l'installation ou de l'enlèvement du
support.
1. Remove and retain the four screws securing the unit to
the rack.
2. With a lifter positioned in front of the array, release the
rail locks and slide the chassis out onto the lifter.
3. Move the chassis onto a secure surface.
