Chapter 2

Server Installation

2-1 Overview

This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your SuperServer 1027R-73DAF
up and running. Following these steps in the order given should enable you to have
the system operational within a minimum amount of time. This quick setup assumes
that server system has come to you with the processors and memory preinstalled.
If your system is not already fully integrated with a serverboard, processors, system
memory etc., please turn to the chapter or section noted in each step for details on
installing specifi c components.

2-2 Unpacking the System

Y ou should inspect the box the SuperServer 1027R-73DAF was shipped in and note
if it was damaged in any way. If the server itself shows damage you should fi le a
damage claim with the carrier who delivered it.

Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold the server. It should
be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas where
heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic fi elds are generated. You will also need
it placed near a grounded power outlet. Read the Rack and Server Precautions in
the next section.

2-3 Preparing for Setup

The box the SuperServer 1027R-73DAF was shipped in should include two sets of
rail assemblies, two rail mounting brackets and the mounting screws you will need to
install the system into the rack. Follow the steps in the order given to complete the
installation process in a minimum amount of time. Please read this section in its en­tirety before you begin the installation procedure outlined in the sections that follow.

Choosing a Setup Location

• Leave enough clearance in front of the rack to enable you to open the front door

completely (~25 inches) and approximately 30 inches of clearance in the back
of the rack to allow for suffi cient airfl ow and ease in servicing.This product is for
installation only in a Restricted Access Location (dedicated equipment rooms,
service closets and the like).

2-2

SUPERSERVER 1027R-73DAF User's Manual

2-4 Warnings and Precautions

• This product is not suitable for use with visual display work place devices

acccording to §2 of the the German Ordinance for Work with Visual Display
Units.

Rack Precautions

• Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully extended to

the fl oor with the full weight of the rack resting on them.

• In single rack installation, stabilizers should be attached to the rack. In multiple

rack installations, the racks should be coupled together.

• Always make sure the rack is stable before extending a component from the

rack.

• You should extend only one component at a time - extending two or more si-

multaneously may cause the rack to become unstable.

Server Precautions

• Review the electrical and general safety precautions in Chapter 4.

• Determine the placement of each component in the rack before you install the

rails.

• Install the heaviest server components on the bottom of the rack fi rst, and then

work up.

• Use a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect the server from

power surges, voltage spikes and to keep your system operating in case of a
power failure.

• Allow the hot plug drives and power supply modules to cool before touching

them.

• Always keep the rack's front door and all panels and components on the servers

closed when not servicing to maintain proper cooling.

Chapter 2: Server Installation

2-3

Rack Mounting Considerations

Ambient Operating Temperature

If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the ambient operating tempera­ture of the rack environment may be greater than the ambient temperature of the
room. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an
environment compatible with the manufacturer’s maximum rated ambient tempera­ture (Tmra).

Reduced Airfl ow

Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that the amount of airfl ow required
for safe operation is not compromised.

Mechanical Loading

Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that a hazardous condition does not
arise due to uneven mechanical loading.

Circuit Overloading

Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the power
supply circuitry and the effect that any possible overloading of circuits might have
on overcurrent protection and power supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of
equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.

Reliable Ground

A reliable ground must be maintained at all times. To ensure this, the rack itself
should be grounded. Particular attention should be given to power supply connec­tions other than the direct connections to the branch circuit (i.e. the use of power
strips, etc.).

Warning! To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a
rack, you must take special precautions to ensure that the system remains
stable. The following guidelines are provided to ensure your safety:

• This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in

the rack.

• When mounting this unit in a partially fi lled rack, load the rack from the bottom

to the top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.

• If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before

mounting or servicing the unit in the rack.

2-5 Installing the System into a Rack

This section provides information on installing the SuperServer 1027R-73DAF into
a rack. If the system has already been mounted into a rack, you can skip ahead
to Sections 2-5 and 2-6. Note: This rail will fi t a rack between 26" and 33.5" deep.

There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may mean the assembly
procedure will differ slightly. The following is a guideline for installing the 1027R­73DAF into a rack with the rack rails provided. You should also refer to the instal­lation instructions that came with the rack unit you are using.

Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails

Each assembly consists of two sections: an inner fi xed chassis rail that secures
directly to the server chassis and an outer fi xed rack rail that secures directly to
the rack itself.

Figure 2-2. Installing Chassis Rails

Inner Rails

The SC1 13 chassis includes a set of inner rails in two sections: inner rails and inner
rail extensions. The inner rails are pre-attached and do not interfere with normal use
of the chassis if you decide not to use a server rack. Attach the inner rail extension
to stabilize the chassis within the rack.

Installing the Inner Rails (Figure 2-2)

1. Place the inner rack extensions on the side of the chassis aligning the hooks
of the chassis with the rail extension holes. Make sure the extension faces
"outward" just like the pre-attached inner rail.

2. Slide the extension toward the front of the chassis.

3. Secure the chassis with two screws as illustrated.

4. Repeat steps 1-3 for the other inner rail extension.

Outer Rails

Installing the Outer Rails to the Rack (Figures 2-3 and 2-4)

1. Attach the short bracket to the outside of the long bracket. You must align the
pins with the slides. Also, both bracket ends must face the same direction.

2. Adjust both the short and long brackets to the proper distance so that the rail
fi ts snugly into the rack.

3. Secure the long bracket to the front side of the outer rail with two M5 screws
and the short bracket to the rear side of the outer rail with three M5 screws.

4. Repeat steps 1-4 for the left outer rail.

Figure 2-5. Installing the Server into a Rack

Installing the Chassis into a Rack (Figure 2-5)

1. Confi rm that chassis includes the inner rails and rail extensions . Also, confi rm
that the outer rails are installed on the rack.

2. Line chassis rails with the front of the rack rails.

3. Slide the chassis rails into the rack rails, keeping the pressure even on both
sides (you may have to depress the locking tabs when inserting). When the
server has been pushed completely into the rack, you should hear the locking
tabs "click".

4. (Optional) Insert and tightening the thumbscrews that hold the front of the
server to the rack.

Stability hazard. The rack stabilizing mechanism must be in place, or the
rack must be bolted to the fl oor before you slide the unit out for servicing.
Failure to stabilize the rack can cause the rack to tip over.

Note: fi gures are for illustrative purposes only. Always install servers into racks
from the bottom up.

Chapter 2: Server Installation

2-9

Warning: do not pick up the server with the front handles. They are designed
to pull the system from a rack only.

Installing the Server into a Telco Rack

To install the SuperServer 1027R-73DAF into a Telco type rack, use two L-shaped
brackets on either side of the chassis (four total). First, determine how far follow the
server will extend out the front of the rack. Larger chassis should be positioned to
balance the weight between front and back. If a bezel is included on your server,
remove it. Then attach the two front brackets to each side of the chassis, then the
two rear brackets positioned with just enough space to accommodate the width of

System Interface

3-1 Overview

There are several LEDs on the control panel to keep you constantly informed of the
overall status of the system as well as the three buttons described below.

3-2 Control Panel Buttons

There are three buttons located on the front of the chassis: a reset button, a power
on/off button and a UID button.

Reset

Use the reset button to reboot the system.

Power

This is the main power button, which is used to apply or turn off the main system
power. T urning off system power with this button removes the main power but keeps
standby power supplied to the system.

UID

Depressing the UID (unit identifi er) button illuminates an LED on both the front
and rear of the chassis for easy system location in large stack confi gurations. The
LED will remain on until the button is pushed a second time. Another UID button
on the rear of the chassis serves the same function. See the table in Figure 3-1 for
descriptions of UID LED states.

3-3 Control Panel LEDs

The control panel located on the front of the SC1 13TQ chassis has fi ve LEDs. These
LEDs provide you with critical information related to different parts of the system.
This section explains what each LED indicates when illuminated and any corrective
action you may need to take.

Note: deactivating the UID LED must be performed in the same way it was activated.
(If the UID LED was activated via IPMI, you can only turn the LED off via IPMI and
not with the UID button.)

Information LED

This LED will be solid blue when the UID function has been activated. When this
LED fl ashes red, it indicates a fan failure. When red continuously it indicates an
overheat condition, which may be caused by cables obstructing the airfl ow in the
system or the ambient room temperature being too warm. Check the routing of
the cables and make sure all fans are present and operating normally. You should
also check to make sure that the chassis covers are installed. Finally, verify that
the heatsinks are installed properly (see Chapter 5). This LED will remain fl ashing
or on as long as the indicated condition exists.

Information LED States

3-4 Hard Drive Carrier LEDs

Each hard drive carrier has two LEDs.

• Green: When illuminated, the green LED on the front of the drive carrier in-

dicates drive activity. A connection to the SATA backplane enables this LED to
blink on and off when that particular drive is being accessed.

• Red: The red LED indicates two states. When blinking, it indicates the drive

is rebuilding. When solid, it indicates a drive failure. If a drive fails, you should
be notifi ed by your system management software. Please refer to Chapter 6 for
instructions on replacing failed drives.
