2-5 Checking the Motherboard Setup
After you install the 5014C-M8 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 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 processor already installed into the system board.
The processor should have its own heatsink attached. See Chapter 5
for instructions on processor installation.
3. Check the system memory
Your 5014C-M8 server system may have come with system memory al-
ready 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 airflow
Make sure all power and data cables are properly connected and not
blocking the airflow. 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 motherboard area of the chassis.
