SERVMANAGERS
3.2 Installation Procedure
This section provides complete basic instructions for the hardware setup of a
single ServManager. (For detailed instructions on the capabilities and concerns
involved in installing a cascaded ServManager system, see
Section 3.3
; to make
troubleshooting the installation easier, we recommend that you check the master
and each submaster as it is installed, rather than installing all units, then checking
the entire cascade.) For an illustrated example of the elements of a basic setup,
see Figure 3-1 on the previous page.
3.2.1 R
ACKMOUNTING
(O
PTIONAL
)
If you want to mount the ServManager in a 19" rack, you will need a ServSwitch
Rackmounting Kit (our product code SW728). The ServManager is pre-drilled to
accept the Kit’s rackmounting screws. If you want to mount the ServManager in a
23" or 24" rack, call Black Box Technical Support for a special quote on a 23" or
24" Kit.

A Monitor/Keyboard/Mouse (MKM) Adapter Cable connects your monitor,
keyboard, and mouse to the ServManager. Because various styles of electrical
connectors are used by different classes of equipment, we supply this cable in
various styles to match (see
Appendix B
). This cable also comes in the different
lengths supported by different applications (see
Section 4.1.3
,
Appendix B
, and
the first Caution notice on the next page)
.
CAUTION!
Make sure that your monitor, keyboard, and mouse can meet the
demands of your application. You might also need a special MKM
Adapter Cable if you are mixing platforms. See
Section 4.1
. Also, note
that the ServManager does
not
support dongles at the time of this
writing.
1. After you verify that the ServManager is turned OFF, plug the DB25 male
connector of the MKM Adapter Cable into the port labeled MONITOR/
KEYBOARD/MOUSE on the ServManager’s rear panel.
2. If your common equipment is IBM type, plug the cables from your shared
monitor, keyboard, and mouse into the corresponding connectors on the
other ends of the MKM Adapter Cable. If your common equipment is Mac
or Sun type, plug the mouse cable into the keyboard, and plug the monitor
and keyboard cables into the corresponding connectors on the other ends of
the MKM cable.
