Notices and statements used in this book

The caution and danger statements also appear in the multilingual safety book provided on the IBM xSeries Documentation CD. Each statement is numbered for easy reference to the corresponding statement in the safety book.

The notice and statement definitions are as follows:

• Notes: These notices provide important tips, guidance, or advice.

• Important: These notices provide information that might help you avoid

inconvenient or problem situations.

• Attention: These notices indicate possible damage to programs, devices, or data. An attention notice is placed just before the instruction or situation in which damage could occur.

• Caution: These statements indicate situations that can be potentially hazardous to you. A caution statement is placed just before the description of a potentially hazardous procedure step or situation.

• Danger: These statements indicate situations that can be potentially lethal or extremely hazardous to you. A danger statement is placed just before the description of a potentially lethal or extremely hazardous procedure step or situation.

Handling static-sensitive devices

Attention: Static electricity can damage electronic devices and your system. T o av oid

damage, keep static-sensitive devices in their static-protective packages until you are ready to install them.

To reduce the possibility of electrostatic discharge, observe the following precautions:

• Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around you.

• Handle the device carefully, holding it by its edges or its frame.

• Do not touch solder joints, pins, or exposed printed circuitry.

• Do not leave the device where others can handle and possibly damage the

device.

• While the device is still in its static-protective package, touch it to an unpainted metal part of the system unit for at least two seconds. (This drains static electricity from the package and from your body.)

• Remove the device from its package and install it directly into your system unit without setting it down. If it is necessary to set the device down, place it in its static-protective package. Do not place the device on your system unit cover or on a meta l t a bl e.

• Take additional care when handling devices during cold weather; heating reduces indoor humidity and increases static electricity.

Chapter 2. Installing options

This chapter provides instructions to help you install hardware options in your server. This section is for all users, but is written with the experienced user in mind. If you

need more detailed installation information for options, refer to the User’s Reference on the IBM xSeries Documentation CD.

Moving the stabilizing feet

The four feet on the bottom of the server provide additional stability when the feet are placed in the stabilizing pos ition.

If the feet on your system are similar to the feet in the first illustration below, rotate them a quarter-turn inward to move them out of the way, or a quarter-turn outwards to provide stability.

If the feet on your system are similar to the feet in the following illustration, complete the following steps to place the feet in the stabilizing position.

1. Place the server on its side.

2. Locate the release tab inside the foot; then, lift up on the tab. Note: The following illustration shows the rear feet located on the bottom rear of

the server.

3. Rotate the foot inward to the unlocked position; then, remove the foot from the server.

4. Align the post in the center of the foot with the hole on the bottom of the server and place the foot between the guides as indicated.

Note: The following illustration shows the rear feet located on the bottom rear of

the server.

5. Rotate the foot outward until the foot locks into place.

6. Complete steps 2 through 5 for each foot. Note: When you need to access the inside of the server to install options, you

might find it easier to lay the server on its side. If you do so, mak e sure the feet are in the horizontal position (see the previous steps). Otherwise, the feet might break off the server because of the weight of the server.

Working with adapters

Your server comes with adapter connectors, called slots. The AGP video adapter is installed in the AGP slot and some server models come with a SCSI adapter installed in PCI expansion slot 2. You can install up to five PCI adapters in PCI expansion slots 1 through 5. All PCI expansion slots are 32-bit, 33 MHz slots.

Note: The illustrations in this document might differ slightly from your hardware. The following illustration shows the location of the PCI expansion slots on the system

and PCI extender boards.

Adapter considerations

Before you install an adapter, review the following:

• Locate the documentation that comes with the adapter and follow those instructions in addition to the instructions given in this chapter. If you need to change switch or jumper settings on your adapter, follow the instructions that come with the adapter.

• You can install full-length adapters in all five PCI expansion slots.

• Your server supports 5.0V and universal PCI adapters; it does not support 3.3V

adapters.

• Your server uses a rotational interrupt technique to configure PCI adapters. Because of this technique, you can install a variety of PCI adapters that currently do not support sharing of PCI interrupts.

• If you are installing or replacing an adapter that will control your startup (boot) drive, install the adapter in PCI expansion slot 2.

• PCI expansion slots 1 through 5 are on PCI bus 0. The system scans the AGP slot and PCI expansion slots 1 through 5 to assign

system resources; then, the system starts (boots) the PCI devices in the following order, if you have not changed the default boot sequence: PCI expansion slots 1 through 5; then, the system board integrated drive electronics (IDE) or SCSI devices.

Note: To change the startup sequence for PCI devices, start the

Configuration/Setup Utility program, select Start Options from the main menu, select Startup Sequence; then, select Second devi c e (SCSI) to designate the adapter boot sequence. See Chapter 4, “Configuring your

IBM Statement of Limited Warranty Z125-4753-06 8/2000

This warranty statement consists of two parts: Part 1 and Part 2. Be sure to read Part 1 and the country-unique terms in Part 2 that apply to your country or region.

Part 1 - General Terms

This Statement of Limited Warranty includes Part 1 - General Terms and Part 2 Country-unique Terms. The terms of Part 2 replace or modify those of Part 1. The warranties provided by IBM in this Statement of Limited Warranty apply only to Machines you purchase for your use, and not for resale, from IBM or your reseller. The term "Machine" means an IBM machine, its features, conversions, upgrades, elements, or accessories, or any combination of them. The term "Machine" does not include any software programs, whether pre-loaded with the Machine, installed subsequently or otherwise. Unless IBM specifies otherwise, the following warranties apply only in the country where you acquire the Machine. Nothing in this Statement of Limited Warranty affects any statutory rights of consumers that cannot be waived or limited by contract. If you have any questions, contact IBM or your reseller.

The IBM Warranty for Machines

IBM warrants that each Machine 1) is free from defects in materials and workmanship and 2) conforms to IBM's Official Published Specifications ("Specifications"). The warranty period for a Machine is a specified, fixed period commencing on its Date of Installation. The date on your sales receipt is the Date of Installation unless IBM or your reseller informs you otherwise.

Page 53

Appendix A. Warranty information 41

If a Machine does not function as warranted during the warranty period, and IBM or your reseller are unable to either 1) make it do so or 2) replace it with one that is at least functionally equivalent, you may return it to your place of purchase and your money will be refunded.

Extent of Warranty

The warranty does not cover the repair or exchange of a Machine resulting from misuse, accident, modification, unsuitable physical or operating environment, improper maintenance by you, or failure caused by a product for which IBM is not responsible. The warranty is voided by removal or alteration of Machine or parts identification labels.

THESE WARRANTIES ARE YOUR EXCLUSIVE WARRANTIES AND REPLACE ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THESE WARRANTIES GIVE YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS WHICH VARY FROM JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN THAT EVENT, SUCH WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD. NO WARRANTIES APPLY AFTER THAT PERIOD.

Items Not Covered by Warranty

IBM does not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation of a Machine. Any technical or other support provided for a Machine under warranty, such as

assistance via telephone with "how-to" questions and those regarding Machine set-up and installation, will be provided WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND.

Warranty Service

To obtain warranty service for a Machine, contact IBM or your reseller. If you do not register your Machine with IBM, you may be required to present proof of purchase.

During the warranty period, IBM or your reseller, if approved by IBM to provide warranty service, provides without charge certain types of repair and exchange service to keep Machines in, or restore them to, conformance with their Specifications. IBM or your reseller will inform you of the available types of service for a Machine based on its country of installation. At its discretion, IBM or your reseller will 1) either repair or exchange the failing Machine and 2) provide the service either at your location or a service center. IBM or your reseller will also manage and install selected engineering changes that apply to the Machine.

Some parts of IBM Machines are designated as Customer Replaceable Units (called "CRUs"), e.g., keyboards, memory, or hard disk drives. IBM ships CRUs to you for replacement by you. You must return all defective CRUs to IBM within 30 days of your receipt of the replacement CRU. You are responsible for downloading designated Machine Code and Licensed Internal Code updates from an IBM Internet Web site or from other electronic media, and following the instructions that IBM provides.

When warranty service involves the exchange of a Machine or part, the item IBM or your reseller replaces becomes its property and the replacement becomes yours. You represent that all removed items are genuine and unaltered. The replacement may not be new, but will be in good working order and at least functionally equivalent to the item replaced. The replacement assumes the warranty service status of the replaced

Page 54

42 IBM xSeries 200 and xSeries 200VL: Installation Guide

item. Many features, conversions, or upgrades involve the removal of parts and their return to IBM. A part that replaces a removed part will assume the warranty service status of the removed part.

Before IBM or your reseller exchanges a Machine or part, you agree to remove all features, parts, options, alterations, and attachments not under warranty service.

You also agree to

1. ensure that the Machine is free of any legal obligations or restrictions that prevent its exchange;

2. obtain authorization from the owner to have IBM or your reseller service a Machine that you do not own; and

3. where applicable, before service is provided: a. follow the problem determination, problem analysis, and service request

procedures that IBM or your reseller provides; b. secure all programs, data, and funds contained in a Machine; c. provide IBM or your reseller with sufficient, free, and safe access to your

facilities to permit them to fulfill their obligations; and d. inform IBM or your reseller of changes in a Machine’s location.

IBM is responsible for loss of, or damage to, your Machine while it is 1) in IBM’s possession or 2) in transit in those cases where IBM is responsible for the transportation charges.

Neither IBM nor your reseller is responsible for any of your confidential, proprietary or personal information contained in a Machine which you return to IBM or your reseller for any reason. You should remove all such information from the Machine prior to its return.

Limitation of Liability

Circumstances may arise where, because of a default on IBM’s part or other liability , you are entitled to recover damages from IBM. In each such instance, regardless of the basis on which you are entitled to claim damages from IBM (including fundamental breach, negligence, misrepresentation, or other contract or tort claim), except for any liability that cannot be waived or limited by applicable laws, IBM is liable for no more than

1. damages for bodily injury (including death) and damage to real property and tangible personal property; and

2. the amount of any other actual direct damages, up to the charges (if recurring, 12 months’ charges apply) for the Machine that is subject of the claim. For purposes of this item, the term "Machine" includes Machine Code and Licensed Internal Code.

This limit also applies to IBM’s suppliers and your reseller. It is the maximum for which IBM, its suppliers, and your reseller are collectively responsible.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES IS IBM LIABLE FOR ANY OF THE FOLLOWING:

1) THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS A GAINST YOU FOR DAMAGES (OTHER THAN THOSE

UNDER THE FIRST ITEM LISTED ABOVE); 2) LOSS OF, OR DAMAGE TO, YOUR RECORDS OR DATA; OR 3) SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR INDIRECT DAMAGES OR FOR ANY ECONOMIC CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS OR LOST SAVINGS, EVEN IF IBM, ITS SUPPLIERS OR YOUR RESELLER IS INFORMED OF THEIR POSSIBILITY. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
