Chapter 2: Server Installation
2-11
Checking the Serverboard Components
•
You may have processors already installed to the serverboard. Each proces-
sor needs its own heatsink. See Chapter 5 for instructions on processor and
heatsink installation.
•
Your 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.
•
If desired, you can install expansion cards to the system. See Chapter 5 for
details on installing PCI expansion cards.
•
Make sure all power and data cables are properly connected and not block-
ing the chassis airflow. See Chapter 5 for details on cable connections. Also,
check the air seals for damage. The air seals are located under the blower
fan and beneath the frame cross section that separates the drive bay area
from the serverboard area of the chassis.
2-7 Checking the Chassis Setup
Next, you should check to make sure the hard drives have been properly installed
and all connections have been made.
Checking the Drives
•
You can add or remove hard drives from the drive carriers without having to
remove the top chassis cover.
•
If you need to remove or install hard drives, please refer to Chapter 6.
Checking the Airflow
Airflow is provided by 4-cm counter-rotating fans. The system component layout
was carefully designed to direct sufficient cooling airflow to the components that
generate the most heat.
Note that all power and data cables have been routed in such a way that they do
not block the airflow generated by the fans.
