Checking the Serverboard Setup

After setting up the the system, you will need to open the unit to make sure the
serverboard is properly installed and all the connections have been made.
1. Accessing the inside of the system (see Figure 2-5)
[If rack mounted, fi rst release the retention screws that secure the unit to the
rack. Grasp the two handles on either side and pull the unit straight out until it
locks (you will hear a "click").] There are two screws that secure the cover to
the chassis - remove these fi rst. Locate the latch on the top (side if tower) of
the chassis - depress where it says "push" then lift the latch to release the cover.
You can then lift the cover from the chassis to gain full access to the inside of
the server.
2. Check the CPUs (processors)
You may have one or two processors already installed into the serverboard. Each
processor should have its own heatsink attached. See Chapter 5 for instructions
on processor installation.
3. CPU clock ratio setting
The CPU speed should be automatically detected. No jumper or BIOS settings
need to be made.
4. Check the system memory
Your server may have come with system memory already installed. Make sure
all DIMMs are fully seated in their slots. For details on adding system memory,
refer to Chapter 5.
5. Installing add-on cards
If desired, you can install add-on cards to the system. See Chapter 5 for details
on installing PCI add-on cards.
6. Check all cable connections and airfl ow
Make sure all power and data cables are properly connected and not blocking
the chassis airfl ow. See Chapter 5 for details on cable connections.
