Intel Server Compute Blade SBX82 Installation and User’s Guide
Installing the blade server in the SBCE unit
The following illustration shows how to install the blade server into the SBCE unit.
Complete the following steps to install a blade server in the SBCE unit:
Statement 21:
xx
CAUTION:
Hazardous energy is present when the blade server is connected to the power source. Always
replace the blade cover before installing the blade server.
1. Read the safety information beginning on page “Safety” on page vii and “Installation
guidelines” on page 19 through “Handling static-sensitive devices” on page 19.
2. If you have not done so already, install any options that you want, such as SCSI drives or
memory, in the blade server.
3. Select the bay for the blade server.
Notes:
a.
If the blade server has an expansion unit installed on it, the blade server and expansion
option require two adjacent bays.
b.
When any blade server or option is in either blade bay 7 through 14 in the SBCE unit, power
modules must be present in all four power bays.
c.
To help ensure proper cooling, performance, and system reliability, make sure that each of
the blade bays on the front of the SBCE unit has a blade server, expansion unit, or filler
blade installed. Do not operate the system unit without either a blade server, expansion unit,
or filler blade installed in each blade bay for more than 1 minute for the SBCE unit.
4. Make sure that the release levers on the blade server are in the open position (perpendicular to
the blade server).
