Installing
an
adapter
The
following
notes
describe
the
types
of
adapters
that
the
server
supports
and
other
information
that
you
must
consider
when
installing
an
adapter:
v
Locate
the
documentation
that
comes
with
the
adapter
and
follow
those
instructions
in
addition
to
the
instructions
in
this
section.
v
There
are
two
types
of
adapters
that
you
can
install,
depending
on
which
slots
are
available.
You
can
install
the
following
types
of
adapters
in
PCI
slots
1
and
2:
–
Only
a
PCI
Express
adapter
into
slot
1
–
Any
PCI-X
or
PCI
Express
adapter
into
slot
2
Each
PCI
slot
requires
a
riser
card
assembly.
The
server
comes
with
two
PCI
Express
riser
card
assemblies.
If
you
plan
to
install
a
PCI-X
adapter,
you
must
install
the
optional
PCI-X
riser
card
assembly.
To
install
an
adapter,
complete
the
following
steps:
1.
Read
the
safety
information
that
begins
on
page
v
and
the
“Installation
guidelines”
on
page
23.
2.
Turn
off
the
server
and
peripheral
devices
and
disconnect
the
power
cords
and
all
external
cables,
if
necessary;
then,
remove
the
server
cover.

3.
Follow
the
cabling
instructions,
if
any
come
with
the
adapter.
Route
the
adapter
cables
before
you
install
the
adapter.
4.
Insert
the
adapter
into
the
riser-card
assembly,
aligning
the
edge
connector
on
the
adapter
with
the
connector
on
the
riser-card
assembly.
Press
the
edge
of
the
connector
firmly
into
the
riser-card
assembly.
Make
sure
that
the
adapter
snaps
into
the
riser-card
assembly
securely.
Attention:
When
you
install
an
adapter,
make
sure
that
the
adapter
is
correctly
seated
in
the
riser-card
assembly
and
that
the
riser-card
assembly
is
securely
seated
in
the
riser-card
connector
on
the
system
board
before
you
turn
on
the
server.
An
incorrectly
seated
adapter
might
cause
damage
to
the
system
board,
the
riser-card
assembly,
or
the
adapter.
5.
Install
the
riser-card
assembly
in
the
server.
