Installation
This section explains how to install a MAXserver and place it into operation.
The basic installation consists of the following procedures:
1.
Unpack the unit, check the contents against the packing list, and inspect
for possible damage during shipping.
2.
Mount the unit in a standard 19" rack or place it on a suitable flat
surface (19" x 15").
3.
If the unit is equipped with a flash card, insert the into the card slot on
the front of the unit.
NOTE: NBase-Xyplex recommends that you wear a
grounded wrist strap when you insert the card.
If none is available, ground yourself by placing
one hand on the unit (or another grounded
object), before you insert the flash card, to
prevent static from being discharged into the
unit.
4.
If the unit is not equipped with a flash card, verify that Release 5.3 or
greater of Access Server software is installed in the network (Release
6.0.3 or higher if using the MAXserver 1604 or 1608B).
5.
If you are installing a unit that is equipped with a flash card, as well as
units that are not, install the unit with the flash card first. That unit
can then serve as a load server for the other units.
6.
Connect the Ethernet transceiver cable or 10Base-T network cable to the
unit.
