5. Slide the blade server into the blade bay until it stops. The spring-loaded doors farther
back in the bay that cover the bay opening move out of the way as you insert the blade
server.
6. Push the release handles on the front of the blade server closed.
7. Turn on the blade server (see “Turning on the Blade Server” on page 7 for
instructions).
8. Make sure that the power-on LED on the blade control panel is lit continuously,
indicating that the blade server is receiving power and is turned on.
9. (Optional) Write identifying information on one of the user labels that come with the
blade servers and place the label on the chassis bezel.
See the documentation for your Intel® Blade Server Chassis SBCE for information
about the label placement.
Important: Do not place the label on the blade server or in any way block the ventilation holes on the
blade server.
10. If you have other blade servers to install, do so now.
If you reinstall a blade server that you removed, you must install it in the same blade bay
from which you removed it. Some blade server configuration information and update
options are established according to bay number. Reinstalling a blade server into a
different blade bay from the one from which it was removed could have unintended
consequences, and you might have to reconfigure the blade server.
If this is the initial installation for the blade server in the Intel® Blade Server Chassis
SBCE, you must configure the blade server through the Configuration/Setup Utility
program and install the blade server operating system. See
“Updating the Blade Server
Configuration” on page 33 and Chapter 5, “Installing the Operating System,” on page 51
for details.
Updating the Blade Server Configuration
When the blade server starts for the first time after you add or remove an internal option or
an external SCSI device, you might receive a message that the configuration has changed.
The Configuration/Setup Utility program automatically starts so that you can save the new
configuration settings. See
“Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program” on page 35
for more information about the Configuration/Setup Utility program.
Some options have device drivers that you must install. See the documentation that comes
with each option for information about installing device drivers.
