Server Installation
Chapter 2. Server Installation
2.1 Overview
This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your R423-E3 server up and
running. Following these steps in the order given should enable you to have the system
operational within a minimum amount of time. This quick setup assumes that your system
has come to you with the processors and memory preinstalled. If your system is not
already fully integrated with a serverboard, processors, system memory etc., please turn to
the chapter or section noted in each step for details on installing specific components .
2.2 Unpacking the System
You should inspect the box the R423-E3 server was shipped in and note if it was
damaged in any way. If the server itself shows damage you should file a damage claim
with the carrier who delivered it.
Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold the R423-E3 server. It should
be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas where heat,
electrical noise and electromagnetic fields are generated. You will also need it placed
near a grounded power outlet. Read the Rack and Server Precautions in the next section .
2.3 Preparing for Setup
The box the R423-E3 server was shipped in should include two sets of rail assemblies,
two rail mounting brackets and the mounting screws you will need to install the system into
the rack. Follow the steps in the order given to complete the installation process in a
minimum amount of time. Please read this section in its entirety before you begin the
installation procedure outlined in the sections that follow .
2.4 Cautions!

Leave enough clearance in front of the rack to enable you to open the front door
