Remove the server blank

CAUTION: Always install a server or server blank in each slot in the rack. Failure to do so results in improper airflow that can lead to a decrease in thermal performance.

IMPORTANT: Server blanks do not engage the water wall as the servers do. When installing a server blank, the locking lever should be open approximately 15 degrees, rather than 90 degrees as when installing a server.

To remove the component:

  1. Open the server blank locking lever.
