A+ Server AS -2124US-TNR/TNRP User's Manual 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.
Chapter 2: Server Installation • In single rack installations, stabilizers should be attached to the rack. In multiple rack in- stallations, the racks should be coupled together. • Always make sure the rack is stable before extending a server or other component from the rack.
A+ Server AS -2124US-TNR/TNRP User's Manual 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.
Chapter 2: Server Installation 2.3 Installing the Rails This section provides information on installing the chassis into a rack unit with the rails provided. There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may mean that the assembly procedure will differ slightly from the instructions provided.
A+ Server AS -2124US-TNR/TNRP User's Manual 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. 1.
Chapter 2: Server Installation Installing the Inner Rails Begin the rack mounting procedure by installing the inner rails to the chassis. 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.
A+ Server AS -2124US-TNR/TNRP User's Manual Installing the Outer Rails onto the Rack 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. Hang the hooks on the front of the outer rail onto the square holes on the front of the rack.
Chapter 2: Server Installation 2.4 Installing the Server into a Rack Once rails are attached to the chassis and the rack, you can install the server. Caution: Heavy! Use two or more people, or a lift to install the server. 1.
A+ Server AS -2124US-TNR/TNRP User's Manual Removing the Chassis from the Rack Caution! It is dangerous for a single person to off-load the heavy chassis from the rack without assistance. Be sure to have sufficient assistance supporting the chassis when removing it from the rack.
Chapter 3: Maintenance and Component Installation Chapter 3 Maintenance and Component Installation This chapter provides instructions on installing and replacing main system components. To prevent compatibility issues, only use components that match the specifications and/or part numbers given. Installation or replacement of most components require that power first be removed from the system.
A+ Server AS -2124US-TNR/TNRP User's Manual 3.2 Accessing the System The CSE-219U chassis features a removable top cover that allows access to components. Check that all ventilation openings in the chassis are clear and unobstructed. Removing the Top Cover 1. Remove the two screws on the side of the chassis that secures the cover to the chassis 2.
