Chapter 2
Server Installation
2-1 Overview
This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your SuperServer 5015P-8(R)/
5015P-T(R) up and running. Following these steps in the order given should enable
you to have the system operational within a minimum amount of time. This quick
setup assumes that your system has come to you with the processors and memory
preinstalled. If your system is not already fully integrated with a serverboard, pro-
cessors, system memory etc., please turn to the chapter or section noted in each
step for details on installing specifi c components.
2-2 Unpacking the System
You should inspect the box the SuperServer 5015P-8(R)/5015P-T(R) was shipped
in and note if it was damaged in any way. If the server itself shows damage you
should fi le a damage claim with the carrier who delivered it.
Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold the 5015P-8(R)/5015P-
T(R). It should be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid
areas where heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic fi elds are generated. You
will also need it placed near a grounded power outlet. Be sure to read the Rack
and Server Precautions in the next section.
2-3 Preparing for Setup
The box the SuperServer 5015P-8(R)/5015P-T(R) was shipped in should include
two sets of rail assemblies, two rail mounting brackets and the mounting screws
you will need to install the system into the rack. Follow the steps in the order
given to complete the installation process in a minimum amount of time. Please
read this section in its entirety before you begin the installation procedure outlined
in the sections that follow.
