Preparing for Installation3
Input Power Information and
Precautions
The Sun SPARC Enterprise T5120 and T5220 servers are available in the following
input power configurations:
■ Two redundant, hot-swappable AC power supplies
■ Two redundant, DC power supplies
Note – Safety agency requirements prohibit manufacturers from changing a product
from AC input to DC input or from DC input to AC input after the product has been
removed from the agency approved manufacturing site.
Note – The DC version of the server must be installed in a restricted-access location.
According to the intent of the National Electrical Code, a restricted-access location is
an area intended for qualified or trained personnel only and has access controlled by
a locking mechanism, such as a key lock or an access card system.
When each power supply is connected to a separate power source, the server
continues to operating under the following fault conditions:
■ A power source failure that removes input power from one of the power supplies.
■ Failure of one of the power supplies.
■ Service actions which require removal of one of the power supplies.
Refer to the Sun SPARC Enterprise T5120 and T5220 Servers Site Planning Guide for
input power specifications.
Note – Input AC/DC power cables: To avoid missing initialization messages, do not
attach power cables to the power supplies until you have finished connecting the
data cables, and have connected the server to a serial terminal or a terminal emulator
(PC or workstation). The server goes into Standby mode and the ILOM service
processor initializes as soon as the input power cables are connected to the power
source.

Slide Rail Assembly Notes for Both
Servers
The rackmounting kit has two slide rail assemblies. A slide rail assembly can be
installed on either the right or left side of the rack.
Note – The slide rail assemblies are different for the T5120 and T5220 servers. The
removable mounting bracket of the SPARC Enterprise T5120 rails slides 13 in. (33 cm)
out of the slide rail, then locks in place. The removable mounting bracket of the
SPARC Enterprise T5220 rails slide 14 in. (35.5 cm) before locking.
Each slide rail assembly consists of a three-section slide rail and a removable
mounting bracket.

■ The front, middle, and rear sections form the slide rail. The middle and rear sections
have holes for mounting screws, and adjust to fit rack depths from 24 in. (61 cm)
to 36.5 in. (93 cm). The front section can be extended to allow movement of the
server out of the rack.
■ The removable mounting bracket slides 14 in. (35.5 cm) out of the slide rail, then
locks in place. If you unlock the mounting bracket at this point, it slides an
additional 12 in. (30 cm) before separating from the slide rail. You can then mount
the mounting bracket to the right or left side of the server chassis.
■ Note that there are five locks in a slide rail assembly. Four are on the mounting
bracket. One lock is on the front section of the slide rail. The locks are described in
“Installing the SPARC Enterprise T5120 and T5220 Servers” on page 21.

Installing the Servers in a Rack
Note – Ensure that you have all of the parts in the rackmounting kit before you
begin the installation of the server.
21
Note – The procedures in this chapter are the same for both the 1U and 2U servers.
The illustrations show a 2U server only as an example.
The rackmounting kit (same for both 1U and 2U servers) contains two slide rail
assemblies, which can be installed on either the right or left side of the rack. A slide
rail assembly consists of two parts, a slide rail and a removable mounting bracket.
The slide rail attaches to the rack posts. The mounting bracket attaches to the server
chassis. See “Slide Rail Assembly Notes for Both Servers” on page 15 for more
information about slide rail assemblies.

ILOM System Console
When you power on the system, the boot process begins under the control of the
Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) system console. The system console displays
status and error messages generated by firmware-based tests during system startup.
Note – To see these status and error messages, connect a terminal or terminal
emulator to the serial management port (SER MGT). For a basic procedure to connect
a terminal or terminal emulator, see “Power On the System for the First Time” on
page 47.
For a more detailed discussion on configuring the system console and connecting
terminals, refer to the SPARC Enterprise T5120 and T5220 Server Administration Guide.

After the system console finishes its low-level system diagnostics, the ILOM service
processor initializes and runs a higher level of diagnostics. When you access the
ILOM service processor using a device connected to the serial management port, you
see the output of the ILOM diagnostics.
By default, the service processor configures the network management port
automatically, retrieving network configuration settings using the Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and allowing connections using Secure Shell (SSH).
Note – If you are unable to use DHCP on your network, you must connect to the
ILOM service processor using the serial management port to configure the network
management port for your network.

processor serial management port.
Configure the terminal or terminal emulator with these settings:
■ 9600 baud
■ 8 bits
■ No parity
■ 1 Stop bit
■ No handshake
A null modem configuration is needed, meaning the transmit and receive signals
are reversed (crossed over) for DTE to DTE communications. You can use the
supplied RJ-45 crossover adapters with a standard RJ-45 cable to achieve the null
modem configuration.
Note – When you power on the server for the first time and you do not have a
terminal or terminal emulator (PC or workstation) connected to the service processor
serial management port, you will not see system messages.
(Optional) Connect an Ethernet cable between the server ’s NET MGT port and the
network to which future connections to the SP and host will be made.
4. After the initial configuration of the system using the SP SER MGT port,
communication with the SP and host is usually performed through this Ethernet
interface.
Connect an Ethernet cable between one of the server ’s NET ports and the network
to which the server will communicate.

▼ Boot the Solaris Operating System
The Solaris OS is preinstalled on the servers on the disk in slot 0. The Solaris OS is
not configured (that is, the sys-unconfig command was run in the factory). If you
boot the system from this disk, you will be prompted to configure the Solaris OS for
your environment.
To boot the Solaris OS, complete these steps:
1. At the ok prompt, boot from the disk that contains the Solaris OS.
■ If you know which disk to boot from, skip this step and perform Step 2.
■ If you need to determine which disk to boot from, type the show-disks
command at the ok prompt to see the path to the configured disks, similar to
the following:
ok show-disks
a) /pci@7c0/pci@0/pci@2/pci@0,2/LSILogic,sas@4/disk
q) NO SELECTION
Enter Selection, q to quit: q
ok
2. Type the boot command at the ok prompt.
Use the value from Step 1 to construct the boot command. You must append the
target to the disk path.
In the following example, the server is booted from disk 0 (zero) on a SPARC
Enterprise T5120 server.

Selecting a Boot Device
This section provides instructions on selecting a boot device:
■ “Selecting a Boot Device” on page 73
Related Information
■ “Selecting a Boot Device” on page 73
■ “To Select a Boot Device” on page 74
Selecting a Boot Device
You specify the boot device by setting an OpenBoot configuration variable called
boot-device. The default setting of this variable is disk net. Because of this
setting, the firmware first attempts to boot from the system hard drive, and if that
fails, from the on-board NET0 Gigabit Ethernet interface.
This procedure assumes that you are familiar with the OpenBoot firmware and that
you know how to enter the OpenBoot environment. For more information, see the
SPARC Enterprise T5120 and T5220 Servers Administration Guide.
Note – The serial management port on the ILOM card is preconfigured as the default
system console port. For more information, see the SPARC Enterprise T5120 and T5220
Servers Adminstration Guide.
If you want to boot from a network, you must connect the network interface to the
network.
73
▼ To Select a Boot Device
● At the ok prompt, type:
ok setenv boot-device device-specifier
where the device-specifier is one of the following:
■ cdrom – Specifies the DVD drive
■ disk – Specifies the system boot disk (internal disk 0 by default)
■ full path name – Specifies the device or network interface by its full path name
Note – The Solaris OS modifies the boot-device variable to its full path name, not
the alias name. If you choose a nondefault boot-device variable, the Solaris OS
specifies the full device path of the boot device.
Note – You can specify the name of the program to be booted as well as the way the
boot program operates. For more information, refer to the OpenBoot 4.x Command
Reference Manual for your specific Oracle Solaris OS release. This document is
available at: (http://www.sun.com/documentation)
If you want to specify a network interface other than an on-board Ethernet
interface as the default boot device, you can determine the full path name of
each interface by typing either of the following commands:
ok show-devs
ok show-nets
The show-devs command lists the system devices and displays the full path
name of each PCI device.

This section provides instructions for installing the servers in an equipment rack
with express (snap-in) rails. The express rail rackmounting kit installs quickly, and
does not require mounting screws or nuts. The kit and the installation procedures are
the same for both the SPARC Enterprise T5120 and T5220 servers.
Note – If your rackmounting kit came with its own instructions, use the instructions
in your rackmounting kit instead of the instructions in this section. After performing
the server installation, proceed to “Powering On the System” on page 45 for
first-time power on.
Note – The procedures in this section are the same for both the 1U and 2U servers.
The illustrations show a 2U server only as an example.

4Rear section
■ The front, middle, and rear sections form the slide rail. The middle and rear sections
have holes for mounting and adjust to fit rack depths from 24 in. (61 cm) to 36.5 in.
(93 cm). The front section can be extended to allow movement of the server out of
the rack.
76SPARC Enterprise T5120 and T5220 Servers Installation Guide • October 2010
■ The removable mounting bracket slides 14.5 in. (37 cm) out of the slide rail, then
locks in place. If you unlock the mounting bracket at this point, it slides an
additional 14.5 in. (37 cm) before separating from the slide rail. You can then
mount the mounting bracket to the right or left side of the server chassis.
■ Note that there are six locks in a slide rail assembly. Four are on the mounting
bracket. Two locks are on the slide rail.

DC Supply and Ground Conductor
Requirements
The server must meet the following:
■ Suitable conductor material: use copper conductors only
■ Power supply connections through the input connector: 12 AWG (between the
server and the source). There are three conductors:
■ -48V or -60V (negative terminal)
■ Chassis ground connection
■ -48V or -60V Return (positive terminal)
■ System ground conductor: 12 AWG (to be connected to the chassis)
■ Provide a Wago Type 721-103/037-000 mating connector for proper connection to
the DC connectors supplied with the server (Wago Type 721).
■ Branch circuit cable insulation color: Per applicable National Electrical Codes
■ Grounding cable insulation color: Green/Yellow
■ DC power source must meet TNV-2 requirements as defined by UL 60950-1 and
IEC 60950-1
Note – Depending on the DC power source, the -48V or -60V (negative terminal)
might be marked with a minus (-) symbol, and the -48V or -60V Return (positive
terminal) might be marked with a positive (+) symbol.
When attaching DC cables, keep the following requirement in mind:
Caution – You must restrict the connection of the server to the DC power source to
minimize the possibility that transient energy will appear on the main input to the
equipment. The DC battery power source must be in the same premises as the server.
The server cannot be in one building with the power source in another building.
