DVD-ROM Drive Installation
The 5019C-WR can accommodate a slim DVD drive (optional). Side mounting brackets are
needed to install the DVD drive in the chassis.
Accessing a DVD-ROM Drive
Begin by removing power from the system as described in Section 3.1.
1. Unplug the power and data cables from the drive.
2. Locate the locking tab at the rear of the drive. It will be on the left side of the drive when
viewed from the front of the chassis.
3. Pull the tab away from the drive and push the drive unit out the front of the chassis.
4. Add a new drive by following this procedure in reverse order. You may hear the faint
*click* of the locking tab when the drive is fully inserted.
5. Reconnect the data and power cables to the drive then replace the chassis cover and
restore power to the system.
System Cooling
Up to six 4-cm counter-rotating fans provide the cooling for the system. Each fan unit is
actually made up of two fans joined back-to-back, which rotate in opposite directions. This
counter-rotating action generates exceptional airflow and is effective in dampening vibration
levels. The chassis provides two additional open fan housings, where an additional system
fan may be added for optimal cooling.
It is very important that the chassis top cover is installed for the cooling air to circulate properly
through the chassis and cool the components.
Installing Fans
The 5019C-WR chassis includes five pre-installed fans. One additional open slot is available
so that one more fan may be added if additional cooling is required. These fans are NOT
redundant, hot-plug, and so must be replaced when they fail.
Fan speed is controlled by system temperature via IPMI. If a fan fails, the remaining fans
will ramp up to full speed. Replace any failed fan at your earliest convenience with the same
type and model (the system can continue to run with a failed fan).
1. Open the chassis while the system is running to determine which fan has failed. Never
run the server for an extended period of time with the chassis open.
2. Turn off the power to the system and unplug the power cord from the power supply.
3. Remove the failed fan's wiring from the fan header on the serverboard.
4. Lift the failed fan from the chassis and pull it completely out.
