Chapter 2
Server Installation
2-1 Overview
This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your SuperServer 5018D-
MTLN4F up and running. Following the steps in the order given should enable you
to have the system operational within a minimal amount of time. This quick setup
assumes that your 5018D-MTLN4F system has come to you with the processor and
memory preinstalled. If your system is not already fully integrated with a mother-
board, processor, system memory etc., please turn to the chapter or section noted
in each step for details on installing specific components.
2-2 Unpacking the System
You should inspect the box the SuperServer 5018D-MTLN4F was shipped in and
note if it was damaged in any way. If the server itself shows damage, you should
file a damage claim with the carrier who delivered it.
Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold the SuperServer 5018D-
MTLN4F. It should be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid
areas where heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic fields are generated. You
will also need it placed near a grounded power outlet. Read the Rack and Server
Precautions in the next section.
2-3 Preparing for Setup
The box the SuperServer 5018D-MTLN4F was shipped in should include two sets of
rail assemblies, six 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 minimal amount of time. Please read this section in its en-
tirety before you begin the installation procedure outlined in the sections that follow.
Choosing a Setup Location
•
Leave enough clearance in front of the rack to enable you to open the front door
completely (~25 inches) and approximately 30 inches of clearance in the back
of the rack to allow for sufficient airflow and ease in servicing.This product is for
