Slide the extension rail toward the front of the chassis.
3
Secure the extension rail with the screws provided.
4
Repeat these steps to attach the other extension rail on the other side of the chassis.
Next step: assemble outer rack rails.
Assemble outer
rack rails
Outer rack rails consist of two sections: a longer front section and a shorter rear section. Slide these
together to assemble the rail.
Step
Action
1
Identify the left and right outer rack rails by examining the ends (brackets). These
brackets bend outward as shown in “Rack rail components.”
2
Slide the front section of the outer rack rail into the rear outer rack rail as shown in
“Rack rail components.”
3
Repeat these steps to assemble the other outer rack rail.
Next step: install outer rack rails in a rack.

Install outer
rack rails
The picture and table below shows how to install the assembled outer rack rails in a rack.
Step
Action
1
Adjust the outer rack rails so that the outer
rails fit snugly in the rack.
2
Align the holes on the front of the outer rail
with the holes on the front of the rack and
secure with the screws provided (see A in
the adjacent picture).
3
Align the holes on the rear of the outer rack
rail with the holes on the rack and secure
with the screws provided (see B in the
adjacent picture).
4
Repeat these steps with the other outer rack
rail assembly.
Next step: Install the workstation in a rack.
Installing in
rack
To install a SmartVDI-110 Server in a rack:
1. While carefully lifting the workstation, slide the inner rail extensions into the front of the outer
rack rails.
2. Push the workstation into the rack until it clicks into the locked position.
Removing from
rack
This picture and table below show how to remove a SmartVDI-110 Server from a rack.
1. Press the outer rack rail latch to release the workstation
chassis (the latch is shown in the adjacent picture).
2. Carefully slide the chassis forward off of the outer rack
rails and out of the rack.

3
Connect one or more Ethernet cables to the Dedicated IPMI port (10) on the rear
of the chassis and connect the other end of the cable to a network router or switch.
4
From the rear of the chassis, connect the included power cables to the power
connectors (8 and 9) on the rear of the server, and connect the power cable to a
power outlet.
5
From the front of the chassis, press the power button (7) to power on the server.
Power option

About BIOS
settings
Some SmartVDI-110 Server hardware configurations require specific BIOS settings. The sections
below show how to access the BIOS, how to configure the BIOS for an IPMI controller, and how to
configure the BIOS for NVIDIA® GRID graphics cards.
Accessing the
BIOS
The table below shows how to access the SmartVDI-110 Server BIOS.
Step
Action
1
Connect a keyboard and VGA monitor to the server.
2
Power on the server or reset server power.
3
Watch the server splash screen for prompts. When prompted, press the DELETE
key to enter the BIOS setup utility.
You can now use the arrow keys on the keyboard to navigate the BIOS menus.
IPMI
configuration
SmartVDI-110 Servers include an IPMI 2.0 + KVM (keyboard, video and mouse) management
controller. This IPMI controller uses a dedicated IP address, and the default setting is for a DHCPassigned network address. ClearCube recommends giving the controller a static IP address. You can
easily change this setting from the BIOS.
Step
Action
1
Access the BIOS as shown above in “Accessing the BIOS.”
2
Use the keyboard arrow keys to select the IPMI menu.
3
Select BMC Network Configuration. Press ENTER.
4
Select Update IPMI LAN Configuration, and press ENTER. Select Yes, and then
press ENTER.
5
Select Configuration Source and press ENTER.
6
Select Static and press ENTER.
7
Use the keyboard to configure the Station IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway IP
addresses as appropriate for your environment. Select each item and press ENTER
to activate the text entry field. Enter an IP address for each item and press ENTER
to set the address.
8
If your server configuration includes one or more NVIDIA GRID graphics cards,
continue to the next section. Otherwise, press the F4 key to save your changes and
exit the BIOS. See the note below about accessing IPMI utilities.
Next steps: After saving your changes you can use a Java®-enabled browser or the Supermicro® IPMI
tool to access the server’s IPMI utilities. The default user name is ADMIN and the default password
is ADMIN (both values are case-sensitive.)

NVIDIA GPU
configuration
If your server includes one or more optional NVIDIA GRID graphics cards, set the graphics card
memory access point below the system’s first 4 GB of physical memory. Specify this setting in the
BIOS to guarantee the memory configuration. The steps below show how to change the BIOS setting.
Step
Action
1
Access the BIOS as shown above in “Accessing the BIOS.”
2
Use the keyboard arrow keys to select the Advanced menu.
