3 Setting up the Chassis
This chapter describes how to set up your server chassis for the first time.
Tools and Supplies Needed
•
Phillips (cross head) screwdriver (#2 bit)
•
Small flat-head screwdriver
•
Anti-static wrist strap (recommended)
Safety: Before You Remove the Access Cover
Before removing the access cover for any reason, observe these safety guidelines:
•
Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the server.
•
Turn off the server by pressing the power button on the front of the chassis. Then unplug the
AC power cord from the chassis or wall outlet.
•
Label and disconnect all peripheral cables and all telecommunication lines connected to I/O
connectors or ports on the back of the chassis.
•
Provide some electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap
attached to chassis ground – any unpainted metal surface – when handling components.
Warnings and Cautions
These warnings and cautions apply whenever you remove the access cover(s) to access components
inside the server. Only a technically qualified person should integrate and configure the server.
WARNINGS
The power button on the front panel DOES NOT turn off the AC power. To remove power from server,
you must unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet or the chassis.
Hazardous electrical conditions may be present on power, telephone, and communication cables.
Turn off the server and disconnect the power cords, telecommunications systems, networks, and
modems attached to the server before opening it. Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage
can result.
Hazardous voltage, current, and energy levels are present inside the power supply. There are no user-
serviceable parts inside it; servicing should be done by technically qualified personnel.
CAUTIONS
ESD can damage disk drives, boards, and other parts. Perform all procedures in this chapter only at
an ESD workstation. If one is not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic
wrist strap attached to chassis ground – any unpainted metal surface – on your server when handling
parts.
Always handle boards carefully. They can be extremely sensitive to ESD. Hold boards only by their
edges. Do not touch the connector contacts. After removing a board from its protective wrapper or
from the server, place the board component side up on a grounded, static free surface. If you place
the server board on a conductive surface, the battery leads may short out. If they do, this will result
in a loss of CMOS data and will drain the battery. Use a conductive foam pad if available. Do not slide
board over any surface.
For proper cooling and airflow, always install the access cover before turning on the server. Operating
it without the cover in place can damage system parts.
