Warnings
Heed safety instructions: Before working with your server product, whether you are using this guide or any
other resource as a reference, pay close attention to the safety instructions. You must adhere to the
assembly instructions in this guide to ensure and maintain compliance with existing product certifications
and approvals. Use only the described, regulated components specified in this guide. Use of other
products/components will void the UL listing and other regulatory approvals of the product and will most
likely result in noncompliance with product regulations in the region(s) in which the product is sold.
System power on/off: The power buttons located on the front panel of each compute module DO NOT turn
off the server chassis AC power. To remove power from the server chassis, you must unplug the AC power
cord from the wall outlet. Make sure the AC power cord is unplugged before you open the server chassis.
To service a compute module it is not necessary to power down the entire system. Power off only the
compute module requiring servicing before attempting to remove it from the server chassis.
Hazardous conditions, devices and cables: Hazardous electrical conditions may be present on power,
telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the compute module and disconnect all telecommunications
systems, networks, and modems attached to it before removing it from the server chassis. Otherwise,
personal injury or equipment damage can result.
Installing or removing jumpers: A jumper is a small plastic encased conductor that slips over two jumper
pins. Some jumpers have a small tab on top that you can grip with your fingertips or with a pair of fine needle
nosed pliers. If your jumpers do not have such a tab, take care when using needle nosed pliers to remove or
install a jumper; grip the narrow sides of the jumper with the pliers, never the wide sides. Gripping the wide
sides can damage the contacts inside the jumper, causing intermittent problems with the function controlled
by that jumper. Take care to grip with, but not squeeze, the pliers or other tool you use to remove a jumper,
or you may bend or break the pins on the board.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Electrostatic discharge can cause damage to your computer or the components within it. ESD can occur
without the user feeling a shock while working inside the system chassis or while improperly handling
electronic devices like processors, memory or other storage devices, and add-in cards.
Intel recommends the following steps be taken when performing any procedures described within this
document or while performing service to any computer system.
• Where available, all system integration and/or service should be performed at a properly equipped ESD
workstation.
• Wear ESD protective gear like a grounded antistatic wrist strap, sole grounders, and/or conductive
shoes.
• Wear an anti-static smock or gown to cover any clothing that may generate an electrostatic charge.
• Remove all jewelry.
• Disconnect all power cables and cords before opening the Sever Chassis
• Power down the Compute Module and remove it from the Server Chassis, remove power feed from the
Server Board before performing any integration or service
• Touch any unpainted metal surface of the chassis before performing any integration or service.
Intel® Server System S9200WK Product Family Setup and Service Guide

• Hold all circuit boards and other electronic components by their edges only.
• After removing electronic devices from the system or from their protective packaging, place them
component side up on to a grounded anti-static surface or conductive foam pad. Do not place electronic
devices on to the outside of any protective packaging.
Caution: Slide/rail mounted equipment is not to be used as a shelf or a work space.
Intel warranties that this product will perform to its published specifications. However, all computer systems
are inherently subject to unpredictable system behavior under various environmental and other conditions.
This product is not intended to be the sole source for any critical data and the user must maintain a
verified backup. Failure to do so or to comply with other user notices in the product user guide and
specification documents may result in loss of or access to data.
Liquid cooling safety guidelines:
• Make sure there are no leaks and/or damaged parts before operating the liquid cooling system.
• Do not to energize system or compute module if liquid cooling system is compromised.
• Do not attempt to perform any service before removing power to the liquid compute module, turn off
and disconnect power before disconnecting the liquid cooling quick disconnects tube connectors.
• To reduce the risk of damage to the cooling system, use care when installing or removing the liquid
compute modules.
• Avoid excessive force when connecting and disconnecting quick disconnect couplings.
• Keep liquid cooling tubing clear of pinch points when sliding server nodes.

Important Safety Certification Standards and Transition Support Information
The IEC 60950-1 2nd Edition safety standard (Information Technology Equipment) is going through a
replacement phase due to the new IEC 62368-1 3rd Edition safety standard (Audio/Video, Information, and
Communication Technology Equipment).
Intel® server systems identified in this document are certified to:
• The new IEC 62368-1 3rd Edition standard for countries that have adopted this new standard.
• The outgoing IEC 60950-1 2nd Edition standard for countries that have not yet adopted the new
standard.
During the global adoption/certification transition phase between the outgoing and new standards, safety
requirement differences between the standards may temporarily dictate restricted usage of Intel® server
system products as follows:
• In countries that have adopted the new IEC 62368-1 3rd Edition standard, no location restrictions
apply beyond the standard intended application use requirements.
• In countries that have not yet adopted the new IEC 62368-1 3rd Edition standard, restricted access
locations are required. Access in these locations is permitted only by technically trained and qualified
personnel who are aware of potential safety hazards.
Note: This requirement applies only to Intel® server system products released in 2019 or later. Legacy Intel®
server system products (released in 2018 or earlier) provide safeguards that require no additional access
restrictions.
Explanation of temporary restricted access location measures
The new IEC 62368-1 3rd Edition standard does not consider 240 VA an energy hazard. The outgoing IEC
60950-1 2nd Edition standard does consider 240 VA an energy hazard, therefore Intel® server system
products released in 2019 or later certified to this standard require restricted access locations. Legacy Intel®
server system products (released in 2018 or earlier) were designed with additional safeguards to meet IEC
60950-1 2nd Edition standard 240 VA requirements, so no location restrictions apply beyond the standard
intended application use requirements. After the IEC 60950-1 standard is phased out globally and Intel
server system products are certified to the new IEC 62368-1 standard, the temporarily restricted access
locations will no longer be required.

2.4 Updating System Firmware
Each compute module within the Intel® Server System S9200WK product family includes a software stack
that includes a BIOS, BMC firmware, Intel® Management Engine (Intel® ME) firmware, and both FRU and SDR
data. A full software stack is installed during the system manufacturing process, but may not be the latest
available version. Intel highly recommends updating the full system software stack on each installed
compute module to the latest available version for optimal performance and system reliability. A System
Update Package (SUP) containing the latest available system software stack can be downloaded from the
following Intel web site: http://downloadcenter.intel.com.
To ensure that the embedded platform management subsystem is configured properly, the latest FRU and
SDR data for each compute module must be installed after updating the full system software stack. Updated
FRU and SDR data allows the platform management subsystem to monitor the specific system sensors used
to determine appropriate system cooling, optimal performance, and accurate error reporting. FRU and SDR
data is loaded by using the FRUSDR utility which is included with the System Update Package (SUP).

This chapter provides instructions for removing and installing system components considered field
replaceable (field-replaceable units, or FRUs). The Intel® Server System S9200WK product family features a
modular design, allowing for servicing of system fans, power supply modules, compute modules and
Ethernet Management Port module (EMP module) without having to power off the entire system.
System components that do require that the full system be powered off and AC power cords disconnected
from the system include the following:
For air cooled configurations:
• Power distribution board
For liquid cooled configurations:
• Power distribution board
• Chassis plumbing assembly
When service is necessary for any of the individual compute modules within the server system, it is
necessary to power off the selected compute module before removing it from the server chassis.
