Chapter 2: Server Installation Chapter 2 Server Installation 2.1 Overview This chapter provides advice and instructions for mounting your system in a server rack. If your system is not already fully integrated with processors, system memory etc., refer to Chapter 4 for details on installing those specific components. Caution: Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components.
SuperStorage 6029P-E1CR16T User's Manual • Always make sure the rack is stable before extending a server or other component from the rack. • You should extend only one server or component at a time - extending two or more simul- taneously may cause the rack to become unstable.
Chapter 2: Server Installation Circuit Overloading Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the power supply circuitry and the effect that any possible overloading of circuits might have on overcurrent protection and power supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
SuperStorage 6029P-E1CR16T User's Manual 2.3 Installing the Rails There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may require a slightly different assembly procedure. The following is a basic guideline for installing the system into a rack with the rack mounting hardware provided.
Chapter 2: Server Installation Releasing the Inner Rail Each inner rail has a locking latch. This latch prevents the server from coming completely out of the rack when when the chassis is pulled out for servicing. To mount the rail onto the chassis, first release the inner rail from the outer rails. Releasing Inner Rail from the Outer Rails 1.
SuperStorage 6029P-E1CR16T User's Manual Installing the Inner Rails on the Chassis Installing the Inner Rails 1. Identify the left and right inner rails. They are labeled. 2. Place the inner rail firmly against the side of the chassis, aligning the hooks on the side of the chassis with the holes in the inner rail.
Chapter 2: Server Installation Installing the Outer Rails onto the Rack Installing the Outer Rails 1. Press upward on the locking tab at the rear end of the middle rail. 2. Push the middle rail back into the outer rail. 3.
SuperStorage 6029P-E1CR16T User's Manual Sliding the Chassis onto the Rack Rails Warning: Mounting the system into the rack requires at least two people to support the chassis during installation. Please follow safety recommendations printed on the rails. Installing the Chassis into a Rack 1.
SuperStorage 6029P-E1CR16T User's Manual Chapter 3 Maintenance and Component Installation This chapter provides instructions on installing and replacing main system components.

SuperStorage 6029P-E1CR16T User's Manual System Fans The chassis contains four 8-cm high-performance fans. Replacing a System Fan Fan speed is controlled by system temperature via IPMI. If a fan fails, the remaining fan will ramp up to full speed and the overheat/fan fail LED on the control panel will turn on. Replace any failed fan at your earliest convenience with the same type and model (the system can continue to run with a failed fan).
The Power Fail LED will illuminate and remain on until the failed unit has been replaced. Replacement units can be ordered directly from Supermicro. The power supply units have a hot-plug capability, meaning you can replace the failed unit without powering down the system.
Chapter 4: Motherboard Connections Chapter 4 Motherboard Connections This section describes the connections on the motherboard and provides pinout definitions.
