Installation Preparation 

1.

 

Before proceeding with the installation, ground yourself with a 
suitable anti-static wrist strap to reduce the risk of damage to 
your equipment. 

2.

 

Open your server’s chassis by following the maintenance 
instructions that came with your equipment. 

3.

 

You must first decide which type of WebReboot installation you 
would like to make with each server.  Two options are available:  

 

Installation using a PCI slot 

 

Installation without using a PCI slot 

 

An overview of each type of installation is provided on the 
following two pages. 
 
 

4     Installation 

Option 1 - Installation Using a PCI Slot (Recommended) 
 
Servprise recommends using the External PCI Slot Cover 
Adapter to enable quick and easy connections at the rear of the 
server for the WebReboot.  Of course, the drawback to this 
installation is that it requires an available PCI slot.  To use this 
installation type, please continue to Installation With PCI Slot 
on page 6.
