Page 25: Checking The Drive Bay Setup
Chapter 2: Server Installation Checking the Components You may have processors already installed to the serverboard. Each proces- sor needs its own heatsink. See Chapter 5 for instructions on processor and heatsink installation. Your server system may have come with system memory already installed. Make sure all DIMMs are fully seated in their slots. - Page 26 UPER ERVER 6016T-GTF/GIBXF/GIBQF User's Manual Note that all power and data cables have been routed in such a way that they do not block the airfl ow generated by the fans. Providing Power The last thing you must do is to provide input power to the system. Plug the power cord from the power supply unit into a high-quality power strip that of- fers protection from electrical noise and power surges.
