Starting Up Server System
The Intel
®
Modular Server System MFSYS25 does not have a power switch. When the
chassis has at least one power supply with power cord plugged into an appropriate
electrical outlet, standby power is available. With standby current, a user can remotely
connect to the management module and/or power on a compute module. Each compute
module has a front panel power switch. Refer to the Intel
®
Compute Module MFS5000SI
User Guide
for more information.
Installing an Operating System
Before installing an operating system, you must first configure storage and networking via
the management module’s graphical user interface (GUI).
One possible way to install an operating system is as follows:
1. Connect a remote client machine to the management module in the Intel
®
Modular
Server System MFSYS25 via a cross-over cable.
2. Connect a USB hub to one of the USB ports to allow more than two USB devices to
be used.
