2.1 Removing Power
Use the following procedure to ensure that power has been removed from the system. This
step is necessary when removing or installing non-hot-swap components.
1. Use the operating system to power down the system.
2. After the system has completely shut-down, disconnect the AC power cord from the
power source.
3. Disconnect the power cord from the chassis.

2.2 Accessing the System
The chassis features a removable top cover.
Removing the Top Cover
1. On the chassis rear, remove the two screws.
2. Slide the cover to the rear as illustrated above to release the cover hooks from the
chassis, and lift the cover off.
Caution: Except for short periods of time, do not operate the server without the cover in

Check the Supermicro website for a list of memory modules that have been validated.
Installing Memory
A SO-DIMM can be installed in the memory slot on the bottom (under side) of the motherboard.
The motherboard must be removed from the chassis. Exercise extreme care when installing
or removing DIMM modules to prevent damage.
Installing a SO-DIMM Module into a Horizontal Socket
1. Align the receptive point on the bottom of the SO-DIMM module against the key on the
memory socket. Note the notches on the side of the SO-DIMM module and those on the
socket to avoid causing damage.
2. Line up the bottom of the SO-DIMM memory module with the edge of the horizontal
socket.

M.2 SSD Storage
The A2SAN-L motherboard supports one M.2 SSD of 120mm in length. Visit the Supermicro
website for a current list of supported M.2 SSDs.
Note: Installing an M.2 SSD card will disable I-SATA0.
Installing an M.2 SSD
1. Power down the system as described in Section 2.1. and remove the chassis cover.
2. Remove the motherboard from the chassis.
3. On the under side of the motherboard, locate the M.2 slot (JMD1) and the screw mount
(M2_SRW3) that secures it, as shown in he drawing below.
4. Insert the M.2 SSD into the slot at a slight upward angle. Note the two keys on the M.2
card and the slot to ensure that the SSD is installed with the correct side up.
5. Secure the M.2 card by placing a screw in the screw mount.
6. Replace the motherboard and chassis cover, and power up.

Motherboard Battery (Pendant Battery)
The motherboard uses non-volatile memory to retain system information when system power
is removed. This memory is powered by a pendant lithium battery that can be connected to
the motherboard.

Figure 2-3. Installing the Pendant Lithium Battery
Replacing the Battery
1. Remove power from the system as described in section 2.1.
2. Insert the male connector from the battery into the female connector on the motherboard
until it is secure. It will only go in one way so correct polarity is insured.
Note: Handle used batteries carefully. Do not damage the battery in any way; a damaged
battery may release hazardous materials into the environment. Do not discard a used battery
