Install in blade enclosure.
The blade enclosure is the rack mount chassis exclusively used to be equipped with
CPU blades and power supply unit. The blade enclosure is installed in the NEC rack
or NEC-recommended rack conforming to the EIA standard.
Note:
Refer to Blade Enclosure User's Guide for details.
Install a CPU blade in blade enclosure according to the following procedure
(1) If an optional slot cover is installed on the slot on which the
CPU blade is to be installed, remove it. Unlock the CPU blade
by holding the lever at the front, pull out the CPU blade, and
then remove the slot cover.
Important:
Keep the removed slot cover for future use.
Do not remove the slot cover from any other slot.
(2) Gently place the server on a clean, rigid, and flat desk. Unlock
the eject lever.
(3) Hold the frame of the server so that its MP connector faces the
blade enclosure and the side on which the eject lever is placed
is on the left.
Important:
Do not hold the eject lever to install the CPU blade in the blade enclosure. The
eject lever may be disengaged from the CPU blade that causes the CPU blade
to fall down. Or, the eject lever may be bent that causes damage to the CPU
blade.
(4)
Align the frame of the CPU blade with the guide rails of the
blade enclosure, and insert the CPU blade into the end of
blade enclosure slowly and carefully.
Important:
Make sure that the eject lever hook is hit to the frame of
the blade enclosure, as shown in the figure.
(5) Firmly push the eject lever, holding the frame at the front of the
blade enclosure, and then insert the CPU blade into the blade
enclosure until the eject lever is completely locked.
Step 4
Connect cables.
The keyboard, mouse, display unit, and network devices are connected to the
Connector board in the blade enclosure that is connected with the MP connector at
the rear of the blade enclosure.
The SUV connector on the front of the CPU blade is not used in normal operation.
Use the SUV connector in the following cases:

Note:
See User's Guide in EXPRESSBUILDER and Blade Enclosure User's Guide for
details.
Finally, connect the power cord coming with the power supply unit to the AC inlet of
power supply unit at the rear of the blade enclosure and the AC outlet for 200 to 240
