Please take note of the following criteria for creating a practical and safe workplace when setting up
your computer:
!
CAUTION
The system can be used anywhere the temperature is suitable for people. However, rooms with
humidity over 70%, and dusty or dirty areas are not appropriate. In addition, do not expose the server
to any temperatures over +30°C or under +10°C.
!
CAUTION
For proper cooling and airflow, operate the system only with the chassis covers installed.
!
CAUTION
Make sure that the cables connecting the server to peripheral devices are not tight.
!
CAUTION
Make sure that all power and connection cables are positioned so that they are not trip hazards.
!
CAUTION
When you save data to your server‘s hard disks or to a floppy disk, they are stored as magnetic
information on the media. Make sure that they are not damaged by magnetic or electromagnetic
fields.
!
CAUTION
Because the electronics in your computer can be damaged by jarring, no mechanical devices should
be placed on the same surface as the server. This is especially important for impact printers whose
vibrations could damage the hard disk.
!
CAUTION
Hazardous conditions, devices and cables: Hazardous electrical conditions may be present on
power, telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the server and disconnect the power cord,
telecommunications systems, networks, and modems attached to the server before opening it.
Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage can result.
!
CAUTION
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection: ESD can damage disk drives, boards, and other
parts. We recommend that you perform all procedures in chapter 3 only at an ESD workstation. If one
is not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis
ground ‑ any unpainted metal surface ‑ on your server when handling parts.
!
ATTENTION
In order to fully separate the server from current, the power cord must be removed from the wall
outlet.
!
ATTENTION
To ensure stability, the floor stands must be turned outwards (pedestal version only).

• When replacing a hot‑plug power supply, unplug the power cord to the power supply being
replaced before removing the power supply from the server.
!
CAUTION
If the server has been running, any installed processor(s) and heat sink(s) may be hot. Unless you
are adding or removing a hot‑plug component, allow the system to cool before opening the covers.
To avoid the possibility of coming into contact with hot component(s) during a hotplug installation,
be careful when removing or installing the hot‑plug component(s).
!
CAUTION
To avoid injury do not contact moving fan blades. If your system is supplied with a guard over the
fan, do not operate the system without the fan guard in place.
Rack Mount Warnings
The equipment rack must be anchored to an unmovable support to prevent it from tipping when a
server or piece of equipment is extended from it. The equipment rack must be installed according to
the rack manufacturer‘s instructions.
Install equipment in the rack from the bottom up, with the heaviest equipment at the bottom of the
rack.
Extend only one piece of equipment from the rack at a time.
You are responsible for installing a main power disconnect for the entire rack unit. This main disconnect
must be readily accessible, and it must be labeled as controlling power to the entire unit, not just to
the server(s).
To avoid risk of potential electric shock, a proper safety ground must be implemented for the rack
and each piece of equipment installed in it.

4 Server Utilities
Using the BIOS Setup Utility
This section describes the BIOS Setup Utility options, which is used to change server configuration
defaults. You can run BIOS Setup with or without an operating system being present.
Starting Setup
You can enter and start BIOS Setup under several conditions:
• When you turn on the server, after POST completes the memory test
• When you have moved the CMOS jumper on the server board to the “Clear CMOS” position
(enabled)
In the two conditions listed above, during the Power On Self Test (POST), you will see this prompt:
Press <F2> to enter SETUP
In a third condition, when CMOS/NVRAM has been corrupted, you will see other prompts but not
the <F2> prompt:
Warning: CMOS checksum invalid
Warning: CMOS time and date not set
In this condition, the BIOS will load default values for CMOS and attempt to boot.
If You Cannot Access Setup
If you are not able to access BIOS Setup, you might need to clear the CMOS memory. For instructions
on clearing the CMOS, see “Clearing the CMOS”.
Setup Menus
Each BIOS Setup menu page contains a number of features. Except for those features that are
provided only to display automatically configured information, each feature is associated with a
value field that contains user‑selectable parameters. These parameters can be changed if the user
has adequate security rights. If a value cannot be changed for any reason, the feature’s value field
is inaccessible.
