7. Turn on the blade server (see “Turning on the blade server” on page 11 for
instructions).
8. Make sure that the power-on LED on the blade control panel is lit continuously,
indicating that the blade server is receiving power and is turned on.
9. (Optional) Write identifying information on one of the user labels that come
with the blade servers and place the label on a BladeCenter unit bezel.
See the illustrations on page 3 for information about the label placement.
Important: Do not place the label on the blade server or in any way block the
ventilation holes on the blade server.
10. If you have other blade servers to install, do so now.
Note: Reinstall the bezel assembly on the BladeCenter T unit after you have
finished installing the blade servers (see the BladeCenter T Types 8720
and 8730 Installation and User’s Guide for detailed instructions for
reinstalling the bezel assembly). However, if you installed an option
such as a PCI expansion card with PCI adapters that require cables,
you will not be able to install the bezel assembly, which contains an air
filter for a BladeCenter T unit. If you require an air filter, a filter must
then be provided on the rack.
If you reinstall a blade server that you removed, you must install it in the same
blade bay from which you removed it. Some blade server configuration information
and update options are established according to bay number. Reinstalling a blade
server into a different blade bay from the one from which it was removed could
have unintended consequences, and you might have to reconfigure the blade
server.
If this is the initial installation for the blade server in the BladeCenter unit, you must
configure the blade server through the Configuration/Setup Utility program and
install the blade server operating system. See “Updating the blade server
configuration” and Chapter 5, “Installing the operating system,” on page 53 for
details.
Updating the blade server configuration
When the blade server starts for the first time after you add or remove an internal
option or an external SCSI device, you might receive a message that the
configuration has changed. The Configuration/Setup Utility program automatically
starts so that you can save the new configuration settings. See “Using the
Configuration/Setup Utility program” on page 41 for more information about the
Configuration/Setup Utility program.
Some options have device drivers that you must install. See the documentation that
comes with each option for information about installing device drivers.
The blade server comes with at lease one microprocessor. If more than one
microprocessor is installed, the blade server can now operate as a symmetric
multiprocessing (SMP) server. You might have to upgrade the operating system to
support SMP. See Chapter 5, “Installing the operating system,” on page 53 and your
operating-system documentation for additional information.
