Chapter 4. Server hardware setup
To set up the server, install any options that have been purchased, cable the server, configure and update
the firmware, and install the operating system.
Server setup checklist
Use the server setup checklist to ensure that you have performed all tasks that are required to set up your
server.
The server setup procedure varies depending on the configuration of the server when it was delivered. In
some cases, the server is fully configured and you just need to connect the server to the network and an ac
power source, and then you can power on the server. In other cases, the server needs to have hardware
options installed, requires hardware and firmware configuration, and requires an operating system to be
installed.
The following steps describe the general procedure for setting up a server:
1. Unpack the server package. See “Server package contents” on page 3.
2. Set up the server hardware.
a. Install any required hardware or server options. See the related topics in “Install server hardware
b. If necessary, install the server into a standard rack cabinet by using the rail kit shipped with the
server. See the
Rack Installation Guide
that comes with optional rail kit.
c. Connect the Ethernet cables and power cords to the server. See “Rear view” on page 39 to locate
the connectors. See “Cable the server” on page 234 for cabling best practices.
d. Power on the server. See “Turn on the server” on page 234.
Note:
You can access the management processor interface to configure the system without
powering on the server. Whenever the server is connected to power, the management processor
interface is available. For details about accessing the management server processor, see:
http://sysmgt.lenovofiles.com/help/topic/com.lenovo.systems.management.xcc.doc/product_page.html
e. Validate that the server hardware was set up successfully. See “Validate server setup” on page 234.
3. Configure the system.
a. Connect the BMC to the management network. See “Set the network connection for the Lenovo
XClarity Controller” on page 237.
b. Update the firmware for the server, if necessary. See “Update the firmware” on page 238.
c. Configure the firmware for the server. See “Configure the firmware” on page 240.
