Safety Instructions
1. Always read the safety instructions carefully.
2. Keep this Users Manual for future reference.
3. Keep this equipment away from humidity.
4. Lay this equipment on a reliable flat surface before setting it up.
5. The openings on the enclosure are for air convection hence protects the equip­ment from overheating. DO NOT COVER THE OPENINGS.
6. Make sure the voltage of the power source and adjust properly 110/220V be­fore connecting the equipment to the power inlet.
7. Place the power cord such a way that people can not step on it. Do not place anything over the power cord.
8. Always Unplug the Power Cord before inserting any add-on card or module.
9. All cautions and warnings on the equipment should be noted.
10. Never pour any liquid into the opening that could damage or cause electrical shock.
11. If any of the following situations arises, get the equipment checked by a service personnel:
The power cord or plug is damaged. Liquid has penetrated into the equipment. The equipment has been exposed to moisture. The equipment has not work well or you can not get it work according to
Users Manual.
The equipment has dropped and damaged. The equipment has obvious sign of breakage.
12. DO NOT leave this mainboard in an unconditioned environment with storage temperature above 70oC (158oF) or operating temperature above 35oC (95oF); it may damage the mainboard.
CAUTION: Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.

MSI Special Features
PC Alert III
The PC AlertTM III is a utility you can find in the application CD. The utility is just like your PC doc­tor that can detect the following PC hardware status during real time operation:
ö monitor CPU & system temperatures ö monitor fan speed(s) ö monitor system voltage ö monitor chassis intrusion
If one of the items above is abnormal, the program main screen will be immediately shown on the screen, with the abnormal item highlighted in red. This will continue to be shown until user disables the warning.

This chapter provides instructions on the hardware installation of the MS-9221 in two sections. System Assembly illustrates how to as­semble each component of the MS-9221. Rack Mounting describes the procedures for mounting the unit into the rack in details. You can use the system assembly flowchart and the chart below to determine the proper sequence for removing or installing components to the server.

Removing the Chassis Cover
1. Press the release buttons and slide the chassis cover forwards.
2. Lift up the cover and remove it from the chassis.
NOTE:
Before you remove or install any components, make sure the server is not turned on or connected to the AC power.
Replacing the Chassis Cover
1. Replace the chassis cover and slide it backwards.

System Hardware
CPU, Heatsink, and Fan Duct
1. On top of the CPU is a fan duct designed to enhance heat dissipation of the CPU. Lift up & remove the fan duct before installing the CPU.
2. Locate the first CPU socket and raise the lever up to its full extent.

CPU1
3. Locate the gold arrow on the CPU.
4. Place the CPU on top of the socket. Make sure to align the gold arrow on the CPU with the arrow key on the socket. Then push the lever down to secure the CPU in place.
2-5
MS-9221 1U Rackmount Server
5. Place the heat sink on top of CPU1 and secure the screws on both sides.
Note: The heat sink has to be installed to prevent the CPU from overheating.
6. Follow the same procedures to install the second CPU and heat sink.
Note: To install DUAL CPUs on the board, you must use the same types of CPUs running at the same FSB frequency.
7. Replace the fan duct.
Note: To ensure proper cooling, make sure the heat sinks & the fan duct are properly installed.
2-6
DDR Memory
1. Locate the DIMM slots on the mainboard. Insert the DIMM memory module vertically into the DIMM slot. Then push it in until the golden finger on the memory module is deeply in­serted in the socket. The plastic clip at each side of the DIMM slot will auto­matically close.
2. For optimal system performance, at least two memory modules must be installed.
