Page 36: Chapter 2: Server Installation
SuperServer® SYS-222C-TN: Server Installation Chapter 2: Server Installation This chapter provides advice and instructions for mounting your server in a server rack. If your server is not already fully integrated with processors, system memory, etc., refer to "Maintenance and Component Installation" on page 47 for details on installing those specific components.
Page 37: Unpacking The System
SuperServer® SYS-222C-TN: Server Installation 2.1 Unpacking the System Inspect the box the server was shipped in and note if it was damaged in any way. If any equipment appears damaged, file a damage claim with the carrier who delivered it. Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold the server.
Page 38: Preparing For Setup
SuperServer® SYS-222C-TN: Server Installation 2.2 Preparing for Setup The box in which the SYS- 222C- TN server was shipped should include the rackmount hardware needed to install it into the rack. Read this section in its entirety before you begin the installation.
Page 39: Rack Mounting Considerations
SuperServer® SYS-222C-TN: Server Installation Use a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect the server from power surges and voltage spikes and to keep your system operating in case of a power failure. Allow any drives and power supply modules to cool before touching them. When not servicing, always keep the front door of the rack and all covers/panels on the servers closed to maintain proper cooling.
Page 40: Ambient Operating Temperature
SuperServer® SYS-222C-TN: Server Installation Ambient Operating Temperature If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the ambient operating temperature of the rack environment may be greater than the room's ambient temperature. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the manufacturer’s maximum rated ambient temperature (TMRA).
Page 41: Installing The Rails
SuperServer® SYS-222C-TN: Server Installation 2.3 Installing the Rails There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may require a slightly different assembly procedure. This rail set fits a rack between 26.8" and 36.4" deep. The following is a basic guideline for installing the system into a rack with the rack mounting hardware provided.
Page 42: Releasing The Inner Rail
SuperServer® SYS-222C-TN: Server Installation Figure 2-2. Attached Inner Rail Note: The front chassis rails and the rack rails both have a locking tab. The locking tabs hold the server in place when fully installed and pushed into the rack (its normal operating position). The tabs also lock the server in place when extended from the rack to prevent the server from completely coming out of the rack when pulled out for servicing.
Page 43: Installing The Inner Rails Onto The Chassis
SuperServer® SYS-222C-TN: Server Installation Installing the Inner Rails onto 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 hook on the side of the chassis with the hole in the inner rail.
Page 44 SuperServer® SYS-222C-TN: Server Installation Figure 2-5. Installing Outer Rails onto the Rack Note: The graphic is for illustrative purposes only. Always install servers to the bottom of a rack first.
Page 45: Installing The Chassis Into The Rack
SuperServer® SYS-222C-TN: Server Installation 2.4 Installing the Chassis into the Rack Once rails are attached to the chassis and the rack, you can install the server. 1. Pull the middle rail out of the front of the outer rail and make sure that the rail is locked at the front of the middle rail.
Page 46: Removing The Chassis From The Rack
SuperServer® SYS-222C-TN: Server Installation 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.
