2-5 Checking the Motherboard Setup
After you install the 1011M-Ni in the rack, you will need to open the unit to make sure
the motherboard is properly installed and all the connections have been made.
1. Accessing the inside of the 1011M-Ni (see Figure 2-5)
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
You may have a processor already installed into the motherboard. The proces-
sor needs its own heatsink. See Chapter 5 for instructions on processor and
heatsink installation.
3. Check the system memory
Your 1011M-Ni 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 add-on cards to the system. See Chapter 5 for details
on installing PCI add-on cards.
5. Check all cable connections and airfl ow
Make sure all power and data cables are properly connected and not block-
ing the chassis airfl ow. 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
motherboard area of the chassis.
