14 

 

About This Document 

This document provides system integrators and service technicians with instructions for the installation and 

removal of system components and supported Intel accessories.  
The document is organized into two sections. The first section (Chapters 2 through 4) is focused on the 

installation of system components and accessories into an L6 or L9 integrated server system

1

.  

The second section (Chapters 5, 6, and appendices A-E) is focused on system service. The section provides 

the service technician with valuable system information and procedures necessary to successfully identify 

and replace a faulty system component. 

System Integration 

Chapter 2 – L6 Only: Essential Component Integration 

– Installation procedures for components 

required to make an L6 integrated system power on ready. 

Chapter 3 – L6/L9: Optional Component Integration

 – Installation procedures for optional components 

and/or available accessory kits used to enhance the base system feature set. 

Chapter 4 – System Software Update and Configuration

 – A short overview describing the system 

software stack installed on new Intel servers and where to get the latest updates. 

System Service 

Chapter 5 

– 

Product Overview 

– Provides an overview of the system features. 

Chapter 6 

– 

FRU Replacement 

– Replacement procedures for components identified as field replaceable 

units (FRUs). 

 

Appendix A 

– 

Getting Help

. Provides server system support and contact information. 

 

Appendix B 

– 

Internal Cable Routing Channels

. Provides cable routing guidance.

 

Appendix C 

– 

General Memory Population Rules

. Provides a summary of general memory population 

rules.

 

Appendix D 

– 

POST Code Errors

. List of POST code errors that represent specific failures, warnings, or 

information.

 

Appendix E 

– 

System Packaging Assembly Instructions.

 Provides detailed instructions to repack the 

server system into the original Intel packaging.

 An L6 integrated system is non-functional as received and requires essential components to be installed to 

make it power-on ready. An L9 integrated system is power-on ready but may require additional options and 

or accessories to enhance the base system configuration.
