Checking the Serverboard Setup
After you install the system in the rack, you will need to access the inside of the
nodes to make sure the serverboard is properly installed.
Accessing the Inside of a Node (Figure 2-6)
1.
Before removing a node, unplug all the cables that connect to that node.
2.
To remove a node, fi rst push the two latches (located near the handles)
inward.
3.
Grasp the handles and pull the node out from the rear of the chassis.
4.
To remove the system from the rack completely, depress the locking tabs in
the chassis rails (push the right-side tab down and the left-side tab up) to
continue to pull the system out past the locked position.
Checking the Components and Setup
1.
You may have a processor already installed in each of the four serverboards.
Each processor needs its own heatsink. See Chapter 5 for instructions on
processor and heatsink installation.
2.
Your server system 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.
You can install one add-on card to each node for a total of four for 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.
