2-5 Checking the Serverboard Setup
After you install the 6014V-M4 in the rack, you will need to open the unit to make sure
the serverboard is properly installed and all the connections have been made.
1. Accessing the inside of the system (Figure 2-4)
First, release the retention screws that secure the unit to the rack. Grasp the two
handles on either side and pull the unit straight out until it locks (you will hear
a "click"). Next, depress the two buttons on the top of the chassis to release
the top cover. There is a large rectangular recess in the middle front of the top
cover to help you push the cover away from you until it stops. You can then lift
the top cover from the chassis to gain full access to the inside of the server.
2. Check the CPU (processor)
You may have one or two processors already installed into the system board.
Each processor should have its own heatsink attached. See Chapter 5 for
instructions on processor installation.
3. Check the system memory
Your 6014V-M4 server system may have come with system memory already
installed. Make sure all DIMMs are fully seated in their slots. For details on
adding system memory, refer to Chapter 5.
4. Installing add-on cards
If desired, you can install an add-on card to the system. See Chapter 5 for
details on installing a PCI add-on card.
5. Check all cable connections and airfl ow
Make sure all power and data cables are properly connected and not blocking
the airfl ow. See Chapter 5 for details on cable connections. Also, check the air
seals for damage. The air seals are located under the chassis fans and beneath
the frame cross section that separates the drive bay area from the serverboard
area of the chassis.
