Thermal Operation and Configuration Requirements
To keep the system operating within supported maximum thermal limits, the system must meet the following operating and configuration
guidelines:
• Ambient in-let temperature cannot exceed 35º C and should not remain at this maximum level for long periods of time. Doing so
may affect long term reliability of the system.
• DIMM Population on CPU: Install DIMMs in order; Channels A, and B. Start with 1st DIMM slot (blue) on each
channel.
• All hard drive bays must be populated. Hard drive carriers either can be populated with a hard drive or supplied drive blank.
• In single power supply configurations, the second power supply bay must have the supplied filler blank installed at all times.
• The system top-cover must be installed at all times.
