Chapter 2
Server Installation
2-1 Overview
This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your 2026T-6RFT+/6RF+ up
and running. Following these steps in the order given should enable you to have
the system operational within a minimum amount of time. This quick setup assumes
that your system has come to you with the processors and memory pre-installed. If
your system is not already fully integrated with a serverboard, processors, system
memory etc., please turn to the chapter or section noted in each step for details on
installing speci
fi c components.
2-2 Unpacking the System
You should inspect the box the 2026T-6RFT+/6RF+ was shipped in and note if it
was damaged in any way. If the server itself shows damage you should
fi le a dam-
age claim with the carrier who delivered it.
Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold the 2026T-6RFT+/6RF+.
It should be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas
where heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic
fi elds are generated. You will also
need it placed near a grounded power outlet. Be sure to read the Rack and Server
Precautions in the next section.
2-3 Preparing for Setup
The box the 2026T-6RFT+/6RF+ was shipped in should include two sets of rail as-
semblies, two rail mounting brackets and the mounting screws you will need to install
the system into the rack. Follow the steps in the order given to complete the instal-
lation process in a minimum amount of time. Please read this section in its entirety
before you begin the installation procedure outlined in the sections that follow.
Choosing a Setup Location
•
Leave enough clearance in front of the rack to enable you to open the front door
completely (~25 inches) and approximately 30 inches of clearance in the back
of the rack to allow for suf
fi cient air fl ow and ease in servicing.This product is for
installation only in a Restricted Access Location (dedicated equipment rooms,
service closets and the like).
