CAUTION: A CAUTION indicates a potential for property damage, personal injury, or death.
Installing the DRAC 4/P
NOTICE: Read these installation instructions before installing your DRAC 4/P expansion card.
CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You should only perform
troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your product documentation, or as directed by the
online or telephone service and support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is
not covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came with the product.
This document provides special instructions for installing the Dell™ Remote Access Controller 4/P
(DRAC 4/P) card into a Dell PowerEdge™ system.
CAUTION: To help prevent damage to the DRAC 4/P card, ensure that the system is unplugged from its
AC power source before installing the card.
1 Shutdown the system and unplug it from its AC power source.
Your system’s Product Information Guide provides a sequence of safety steps that you should
perform before opening the cover of your system, including turning off the system and
disconnecting it from its AC power source. However, the DRAC 4/P card can be damaged if it
is installed in the system that is turned off, but still attached to its AC power supply. Ensure
that the system is unplugged from its AC power supply before installing the DRAC 4/P card.

instructions.

Connectors" in the Installation and Troubleshooting Guide for an illustration of your system
board’s connectors.
