Preface UPER ERVER 1028R-MCT/MCTR User's Manual Notes Chapter 5: Advanced Serverboard Setup Chapter 5 provides detailed information on the X10DRL-CT serverboard, including the locations and functions of connections, headers and jumpers. Refer to this chapter when adding or removing processors or main memory and when reconfig- uring the serverboard.
Chapter 1 Introduction Overview The SuperServer 1028R-MCT/MCTR is a high-end server comprised of two main subsystems: the SC113MFAC2-605CB/SC113MFAC2-R606CB 1U server chassis and the X10DRL-CT dual processor serverboard. Please refer to our website for information on operating systems that have been certified for use with the system (www.supermicro.com).
ERVER 1028R-MCT/MCTR User's Manual Serverboard Features Server Chassis Features At the heart of the SuperServer 1028R-MCT/MCTR lies the X10DRL-CT, a dual The SC113MFAC2-605CB/SC113MFAC2-R606CB is a short depth (< 20") 1U processor serverboard based on Intel's PCH C612 chipset. Below are the main chassis that features eight 2.5"...

The inner rails are pre-attached and do not interfere with into a rack. Note: The rails will fit a rack between 26" and 33.5" deep.
Chapter 2: Server Installation UPER ERVER 1028R-MCT/MCTR User's Manual Outer Rails Installing the Outer Rails to the Rack (Figures 2-3 and 2-4) 1. Attach the short bracket to the outside of the long bracket. You must align the pins with the slides. Also, both bracket ends must face the same direction. 2.
Installing the Chassis into a Rack (Figure 2-5) Installing the Server into a Telco Rack To install the SuperServer 1028R-MCT/MCTR into a Telco type rack, use two L- 1. Confirm that chassis includes the inner rails and rail extensions . Also, confirm shaped brackets on either side of the chassis (four total).
Chapter 3: System Interface Chapter 3 System Interface Overview There are several LEDs on the control panel to keep you constantly informed of the overall status of the system as well as the three buttons described below. Control Panel Buttons There are three buttons located on the front of the chassis: a UID button, a reset button and a power on/off button.
Chapter 3: System Interface UPER ERVER 1028R-MCT/MCTR Manual Control Panel LEDs The control panel located on the front of the SC113MFAC2 chassis has five LEDs. These LEDs provide you with critical information related to different parts of the system. This section explains what each LED indicates when illuminated and any Information LED corrective action you may need to take.
