Press the power button to turn on the server, then run any required system checks.
Some optional devices require you to reconfigure the server’s software and change
jumper, and/or DIP switch settings before the device can be used. For more information,
see
BIOS Setup Utility
on page 99.
In addition to the instructions in this chapter, refer to the manufacturer’s user manuals for
the devices you are installing/removing.
Working on rack-mounted servers
Read the following warnings before performing maintenance on a rack-mounted server.
Failure to adhere to these warnings can result in serious injury and/or damage to
equipment.
❖
Never attempt to install or remove a server by yourself. At least two people are
required to install a server into a rack. Three people are required to install a server at
a height greater than 31 units of vertical rack space (approximately 54 inches). Be
particularly careful when installing a server near the top of a rack or in a location that
requires you to lift the server higher than chest level.
❖
Never slide the server and another unit (such as an extension disk unit) out of the
rack at the same time. Extending more than one device from the rack may cause it to
become unstable.
❖
Never place additional weight or apply an excessive load to a server or other unit that
is extended from the rack. Such a load may damage the rack’s rails or cause the rack
to become unstable.
❖
Never lean objects against the rack, and do not lean against it. The rack may become
unstable and cause serious injury.
❖
When working at high locations around the rack, never lean ladders directly against
the rack or against units installed in the rack. The installed units may be damaged, or
the rack may become unstable and tip over, causing injury.
