NovaScale Blade 2021 Installation and User’s Guide
a NovaScale Blade Server, expansion unit, or filler blade installed in each blade bay for
more than 1 minute for the NovaScale Blade Chassis unit.
4. Make sure that the release levers on the NovaScale Blade Server are in the open position
(perpendicular to the NovaScale Blade Server).
5. Slide the NovaScale Blade Server into the bay until it stops. The spring-loaded doors farther
back in the bay that cover the bay opening move out of the way as you insert the NovaScale
Blade Server.
6. Push the release levers on the front of the NovaScale Blade Server closed.
7. Turn on the NovaScale Blade Server (see “Turning on the NovaScale 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 NovaScale Blade Server is receiving power and is turned on.
9. (Optional) Write identifying information on one of the user labels that come with the NovaScale
Blade Servers and place the label on the NovaScale Blade Chassis unit bezel.
Refer to Figure 2 on page 3 and Figure 3 on page 8 for information about the label placement.
Important:
Do not place the label on the NovaScale Blade Server or in any way block the
ventilation holes on the NovaScale Blade Server.
10. If you have other blades to install, do so now.
Attention:
If you reinstall a NovaScale Blade Server that you removed, you must install it into the
same bay from which you removed it. Some NovaScale Blade Server configuration information and
update options are established according to bay number. Reinstalling a NovaScale Blade Server into
a different bay from the one from which it was removed could have unintended consequences, and
you might have to reconfigure the NovaScale Blade Server.
If this is the initial installation for a NovaScale Blade Server in the NovaScale Blade Chassis unit,
you must configure the NovaScale Blade Server with the Configuration/Setup Utility and install the
NovaScale Blade Server operating system. See “Updating your NovaScale Blade Server
configuration” on page 46 for details.
Updating your NovaScale Blade Server configuration
When you start your NovaScale Blade Server for the first time after you add or remove an internal
option or an external SCSI device (if the storage expansion unit has been installed), a message might
be displayed informing you that the configuration has changed. The NovaScale Blade Server
Configuration/Setup Utility program automatically starts so that you can save the new configuration
information. See “Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program” on page 49 for more information
about the Configuration/Setup Utility program.
Some options have device drivers that you must install. See the documentation that comes with the
option for information about installing any required device drivers.
Your NovaScale Blade Server comes with one or two processors installed on the system board. If
your NovaScale Blade Server comes with two processors, or if your NovaScale Blade Server comes
with one processor and you have installed an additional processor, your NovaScale Blade Server can
now operate as an SMP server. Therefore, you might have to upgrade your operating system to
support SMP. See your operating-system documentation for additional information.
