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.
Accessing the Inside of the System
1.
If rack mounted, fi rst release the retention screws that secure the unit to the
rack. Then grasp the two handles on either side and pull the unit straight out
until it locks (you will hear a "click").
2.
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. See
Figure 2-5.
Checking the Components and Setup
1.
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.
2.
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.
3.
If desired, you can install add-on cards to the system. See Chapter 5 for
details on installing PCI add-on cards.
4.
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.
