Rules for System Configuration
Some of the following rules are suggestions for optimizing your system. Other rules
are strictly required and are marked with the notation Requirement or Maximum.
D.1
Card Cage
As a general rule, all board slots in the card cage are interchangeable. However, the
requirements and limitations in the following sections apply when you install
boards.
D.1.1
CPU/ Boards
1. Install CPU/ boards at the front of the system, starting with the top slot
(slot 0). If you reserve the rear slots for I/O+ boards, I/O cable attachments will
be made easier.
2. After the front slots are filled, you may add CPU/ boards at the rear of
the system, below the I/O+ boards.
