The mezzanine card is located under riser number 3 (slots 4 and 5). You must
remove that riser to access the mezzanine card, replace the mezzanine card, and then reinstall
riser number 3. See the FRU map on the controller module for more information.
About this task
You can use the following animation or the written steps to replace the
mezzanine card.
Steps
- Remove riser number 3 (slots 4 and 5):
- Open the air duct by pressing the locking tabs on the sides of the air
duct, slide it toward the back of the controller module, and then rotate
it to its completely open position.
- Remove any SFP or QSFP modules that might be in the PCIe cards.
- Rotate the riser locking latch on the left side of the riser up and
toward air duct.
The riser raises up slightly from the controller
module.
- Lift the riser up, and then set it aside on a stable, flat
surface.
- Replace the mezzanine card:
- Remove any QSFP or SFP modules from the card.
- Loosen the thumbscrews on the mezzanine card, and gently lift the card
directly out of the socket and set it aside.
- Align the replacement mezzanine card over the socket and the guide pins
and gently push the card into the socket.
- Tighten the thumbscrews on the mezzanine card.
- Reinstall the riser:
- Align the riser with the pins to the side of the riser socket, lower
the riser down on the pins.
- Push the riser squarely into the socket on the motherboard.
- Rotate the latch down flush with the sheet metal on the riser.
