2-1 Overview
This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your SuperServer 6028R-WTR(T)
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 your 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
You should inspect the box the SuperServer 6028R-WTR(T) 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 SuperServer
6028R-WTR(T). 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 6028R-WTR(T) 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.
2-1
Page 18
SUPERSERVER 6027R-73DARF User's Manual
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).
• 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.
2-4 Warnings and Precautions
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
simultaneously 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 any 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.
2-2
Page 19
Chapter 2: Server Installation
Rack Mounting Considerations
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.
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.).

2-4 Installing the System into a Rack
This section provides information on installing the SC815 chassis into a rack unit
with the quick-release rails provided. There are a variety of rack units on the market,
which may mean the assembly procedure will differ slightly. You should also refer to
the installation instructions that came with the rack unit you are using.
Note: This rail will fi t a rack between 26" and 33.5" deep.
Warning: Do not pick up the server with the front handles. They are
designed to pull the system from a rack only.
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.
Warning: Slide rail mounted equipment is not to be used as a shelf or a
work space.
Separating the Sections of the Rack Rails
The chassis package includes two rail assemblies in the rack mounting kit. 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.
Installing the Inner Rail Extension
The SC825 chassis includes a set of inner rails in two sections: inner rails and
inner rail extensions. Inner rail extensions are attached to the inner rails to mount
the chassis in the rack.
Installing the Inner Rails
1. Place the inner rail 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.

Chapter 5
Advanced Serverboard Setup
This chapter covers the steps required to connect the data and power cables and
install add-on cards. All serverboard jumpers and connections are also described.
A layout and quick reference chart are included in this chapter for your reference.
Remember to completely close the chassis when you have fi nished working with
the serverboard to better cool and protect the system.
5-1 Handling the Serverboard
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic com ponents. To prevent
damage to any printed circuit boards (PCBs), it is important to handle them very
carefully (see previous chapter). To prevent the serverboard from bending, keep
one hand under the center of the board to support it when handling. The following
measures are generally suffi cient to protect your equipment from electric static
discharge.
Precautions
• Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent ESD.
• Touch a grounded metal object before removing boards from antistatic bags.
• Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral chips,
memory modules or gold contacts.
• When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.
• Put the serverboard, add-on cards and peripherals back into their antistatic
bags when not in use.
• For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides excellent
conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting fasteners and
the serverboard.
Unpacking
The serverboard is shipped in antistatic packaging to avoid electrical static
discharge. When unpacking the board, make sure the person handling it is static
protected.
5-1
Page 48
SUPERSERVER 6028R-WTR(T) USER'S MANUAL
5-2 Connecting Cables
Now that the serverboard is installed, the next step is to connect the cables to the
board. These include the data cables for the peripherals and control panel and the
power cables.
Connecting Data Cables
The cables used to transfer data from the peripheral devices have been carefully
routed to prevent them from blocking the fl ow of cooling air that moves through
the system from front to back. If you need to disconnect any of these cables, you
should take care to keep them routed as they were originally after reconnecting
them (make sure the red wires connect to the pin 1 locations). The following data
cables (with their locations noted) should be connected. (See the layout on page
5-10 for connector locations.)
• One 77-cm 10-pin to 10-pin 26-AWG two-channel USB cable (CBL-0263L)
• Two 29-cm 30-AWG SATA cables (CBL-0483L)
• One 27-cm 8-pin to 8-pin round SGPIO cable (CBL-CDAT-0660)
• One 40-cm 8-pin to 8-pin round SGPIO cable (CBL-CDAT-0661)
• One 61.5-cm 28-AWG SGPIO cable (CBL-CDAT-0662)
• Two 31-cm 30-AWG SATA cables (CBL-SAST-0639)
• Two 38-cm 30-AWG SATA cables (CBL-SAST-0640)
• Two 45-cm 30-AWG SATA cables (CBL-SAST-0641)
• Two 55-cm 30-AWG SATA cables (CBL-0488L)
Important! Make sure the cables do not come into contact with the fans.
Connecting Power Cables
The X10DRW-i(T) has a 24-pin primary power supply connector (JPW1) for
connection to the ATX power supply. In addition, there are two 8-pin 12V processor
power connectors (JPW2 and JPW3) that must be connected to your power supply.
See Section 5-9 for power connector pin defi nitions.
5-2
Page 49
Chapter 5: Advanced Serverboard Setup
Connecting the Control Panel
JF1 contains header pins for various front control panel connectors. See Figure 5-1
for the pin locations of the various front control panel buttons and LED indicators.
All JF1 wires have been bundled into a single cable to simplify this connection.
Make sure the red wire plugs into pin 1 as marked on the board. The other end
connects to the Control Panel PCB board, located just behind the system status
LEDs on the chassis. Use the 70-cm 20-pin to 20-pin 20-AWG front control cable
(CBL-0335L) to connect to the control panel connections.

This chapter covers the steps required to install components and perform
maintenance on the SC815TS-R740WBP chassis. For component installation,
follow the steps in the order given to eliminate the most common problems
encountered. If some steps are unnecessary, skip ahead to the step that follows.
Tools Required: The only tool you will need to install components and perform
maintenance is a Philips screwdriver.
6-1 Static-Sensitive Devices
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage electronic com ponents. To prevent
damage to any printed circuit boards (PCBs), it is important to handle them very
carefully. The following measures are generally suffi cient to protect your equipment
from ESD damage.
Precautions
• Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
• T ouch a grounded metal object before removing any board from its antistatic bag.
• Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral chips,
memory modules or gold contacts.
• When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.
• Put the serverboard, add-on cards and peripherals back into their antistatic
bags when not in use.
• For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides excellent
conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting fasteners and
the serverboard.
Unpacking
The serverboard is shipped in antistatic packaging to avoid static damage. When
unpacking the board, make sure the person handling it is static protected.

Main Power
The control panel (located on the front of the chassis) must be connected to the
JF1 connector on the serverboard to provide you with system status indications. A
ribbon cable has bundled these wires together to simplify the connection. Connect
the cable from JF1 on the serverboard to the Control Panel PCB (printed circuit
board). Make sure the red wire plugs into pin 1 on both connectors. Pull all excess
cabling out of the airfl ow path. The LEDs inform you of system status.
See Chapter 3 for details on the LEDs and the control panel buttons. Details on
JF1 can be found in Chapter 5.
6-3 System Fans
Three 8-cm hot-swap fans provide the cooling for the system. It is very important
that the chassis top cover is properly installed and making a good seal in order for
the cooling air to circulate properly through the chassis and cool the components.
See Figure 6-2 for details.
System Fan Failure
Fan speed is controlled by system temperature via IPMI. If a fan fails, the remaining
fans will ramp up to full speed and the overheat/fan fail LED on the control panel will
turn on. Replace any failed fan at your earliest convenience with the same type and
model (the system can continue to run with a failed fan). Remove the top chassis
cover while the system is still running to determine which of the fans has failed.
6-2
Page 81
Chapter 6: Advanced Chassis Setup
The fans in the system are redundant, hot-plug.
Replacing System Fans
Removing a Fan
1. Remove the chassis cover.
2. Press the tabs on the sides of the fan to unlock and remove the fan and its
housing. The fan's power connections will automatically detach.
3. System power does not need to be shut down since the fans are hotpluggable.
Installing a New Fan
1. Replace the failed fan with an identical 8-cm, 12-volt fan (available from
Supermicro).
2. Position the new fan into the space vacated by the failed fan previously
removed. A "click" can be heard when the fan is fully installed in place and
the power connections are made.
3. If the system power is on, the hot-plug feature will cause the fan to start
immediately upon being connected to its header on the serverboard.

storage/SAS-CompList.pdf
http://www.supermicro.com/products/nfo/fi les/
tp://ftp.supermicro.
SAS/SATA Drive Installation
These drives are mounted in carriers to simplify their installation and removal from
the chassis. The carriers also help promote proper airfl ow for the drives. For this
reason, even empty carriers without hard drives installed must remain in the chassis.
Removing a Drive Carrier
1. Push the release button located beside the drive's LEDs.
2. Swing the handle fully out and use it to pull the drive carrier straight out (see
Figure 6-3).
Mounting a Drive in a Drive Carrier
1. To add a new SAS/SATA drive, install the drive into the carrier with the printed
circuit board side facing down so that the mounting holes align with those in
the carrier.
2. Secure the drive to the carrier with four screws, as shown in Figure 6-4.
Note: Your operating system must have RAID support to enable the hot-plug
capability of the drives.
Note: Refer to the following FTP site for RAID setup guidelines: <

6-5 Power Supply
The SuperServer 6028R-WTR(T) has a 740 Watt redundant power supply consisting
of two power modules. Each power supply module has an auto-switching capability ,
which enables it to automatically sense and operate at a 100V - 240V input voltage.
The SC815 chassis utilizes redundant, hot-plug power supplies.
Power Supply Failure
If either of the two power supply modules fail, the other module will take the full load
and allow the system to continue operation without interruption. The PWR Fail LED
will illuminate and remain on until the failed unit has been replaced. Replacement
units can be ordered directly from Supermicro (see contact information in the
Preface). The power supply units have a hot-swap capability, meaning you can
replace the failed unit without powering down the system.
Removing/Replacing the Power Supply
You do not need to shut down the system to replace a power supply module. The
backup power supply module will keep the system up and running while you replace
the failed hot-swap unit. Replace with the exact same model (see part number in
the Appendix), which can be ordered directly from Supermicro.
Removing the Power Supply
1. First unplug the AC power cord from the failed power supply module (with the
RED LED lit up).
2. Depress the locking tab on the power supply module.
3. Use the handle to pull it straight out with the rounded handle.
Installing a New Power Supply
1. Replace the failed hot-swap unit with another identical power supply unit.
2. Push the new power supply unit into the power bay until you hear a click.
3. Secure the locking tab on the unit.
4. Finish by plugging the AC power cord back into the unit and make sure the
GREEN LED lights up and the power supply fans are rotating.
