UPER ERVER 5086B-TRF User's Manual Installing the System into a Rack This section provides information on installing the system into a rack unit. Rack installation requires the use of a rackmount kit. If the system has already been mounted into a rack or if you are using it as a tower, you can skip ahead to Sec- tions 2-5 and 2-6.
Chapter 2: Server Installation Locking Tabs Each inner rail has a locking tab. This tab locks the chassis into place when installed and pushed fully into the rack. These tabs also lock the chassis in place when fully extended from the rack. This prevents the server from coming completely out of the rack when when the chassis is pulled out for servicing.
UPER ERVER 5086B-TRF User's Manual Installing The Inner Rails on the Chassis Installing the Inner Rails Confi rm that the left and right inner rails have been correctly identifi ed. Place the inner rail fi rmly 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 on the Rack Installing the Outer Rails Press upward on the locking tab at the rear end of the middle rail. Push the middle rail back into the outer rail. Hang the hooks of the front of the outer rail onto the slots on the front of the rack.

UPER ERVER 5086B-TRF User's Manual Component Installation The 5086B-TRF has a unique design that sets it apart from most server systems. Processors are installed into four CPU boards, which are installed to a baseboard and connect to each other with bridge boards. The following procedures should be followed in order to access the system to add or change the system's processors and memory.
Chapter 5: Advanced Setup Removing an Air Shroud from a CPU Module Each CPU board has its own air shroud, which must be removed before installing processors or memory and re-attached before the CPU board is installed back into the baseboard. Each air shroud has four hooks at the corners that secure it to the CPU board.
UPER ERVER 5086B-TRF User's Manual Installing a CPU to the CPU Board The CPU board bracket that the CPU board is attached to does not present a fl at surface for installing CPUs and memory. For this reason, you should lay the board either on a smaller support surface or on the edge of the table so that the board bracket handles do not touch the surface the board bracket is resting on.
Chapter 5: Advanced Setup Insert the two push-pins on the sides of the heatsink through the mounting holes on the CPU board, and turn the push-pins clockwise to lock them evenly. Installing Memory on the CPU Board The CPU board bracket that the CPU board is attached to does not present a fl at surface for installing CPUs and memory.
