This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your SuperServer 1018D-73MTF
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 SuperServer 1018D-73MTF system has come to you with the
processors and memory preinstalled. If your system is not already fully integrated
with a motherboard, processors, system memory etc., please turn to the relevant
chapter or section for details on installing specifi c components.
2-2 Unpacking the System
You should inspect the box the SuperServer 1018D-73MTF 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 1018D73MTF. 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 1018D-73MTF 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).
2-1
SUPERSERVER 1018D-73MTF Manual
• 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 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 SATA drives and power supply modules to cool before touch-
ing 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
Chapter 2: Server Installation
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.

2-4 Installing the System into a Rack
This section provides information on installing the SuperServer 1018D-73MTF into a
rack. If the 1018D-73MTF has already been mounted into a rack, you can skip ahead
to Sections 2-5 and 2-6. Note: The rails 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 1018D73MTF 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.

Chapter 2: Server Installation
Inner Rails
The SC113MTQ 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.

Advanced Motherboard Setup
This ch apter cover s the ste ps requi red to inst all pro ces sors a nd heats inks to the
X10SL7-F mother board, connect the data and power cables and install add-on
cards . All m other boa rd jump ers an d con nec tion s are des cri bed an d a layout and
quick re ference chart are included in this chapter. Remember to close the chassis
completely when you have fi nished wor king on the motherboard to protect and
cool the system suffi ciently.
5-1 Handling the Motherboard
Static electrical discharge can damage electronic com ponents. To prevent damage
to printed circuit boards, it is important to handle them very carefully (see Chapter
4). Also note that the size and weight of the motherboard can cause it to bend if
handled improperly, which may result in damage. To prevent the motherboard 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
static discharge.
Precautions
• Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
• Touch 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 motherboard, add-on cards and peripherals back into their antistatic
bags when not in use.
Unpacking
The motherboard is shipped in antistatic packaging to avoid static damage. When
unpacking the board, make sure the person handling it is static protected.

5-2 Processor and Heatsink Installation
Warning: When handling the processor package, avoid placing direct pressure on the
label area of the fan.
Notes:
• Always connect the power cord last and always remove it before adding, re-
moving or changing any hardware components. Make sure that you install the
processor into the CPU socket before you install the CPU heatsink.
• If you buy a CPU separately, make sure that you use an Intel-certifi ed multi-
directional heatsink only.
• Make sure to install the motherboard into the chassis before you install the
CPU heatsinks.
• When receiving a motherboard without a processor pre-installed, make sure that
the plastic CPU socket cap is in place and none of the socket pins are bent;
otherwise, contact your retailer immediately.
• Refer to the Sup ermi cro web s ite for upd ates on CPU su ppor t.
Installing an LGA 1150 Processor
1. Press the load lever to release
the load plate covering the CPU
socket from its locked position.
2. Gently lift the socket clip to open
the load plate.
3. Hold the plastic cap at its north
and south center edges to remove
it from the CPU socket.
4. After removing the plastic cap,
hold the CPU at the north and
south center edges with your
thumb and index fi nger,.
5-2
5. Align the CPU key, which is a semicircle cutout, against the socket
key, which is the notch below the
gold color dot on the side of the
socket.
6. Align pin 1 of the CPU against pin 1
of the CPU socket.
7. Once both CPU and the socket are
aligned, carefully lower the CPU
straight down into the socket. (To
avoid damaging the CPU or the
socket, do not rub the CPU against
the surface of the socket or its
pins.)
Chapter 5: Advanced Motherboard Setup
CPU Key
CPU Pin 1
8. With the CPU inside the socket,
inspect the four corners of the CPU
to make sure that the CPU is properly installed.
9. Once the CPU is securely seated
on the socket, lower the CPU load
plate to the socket.
10. Use your thumb to gently push the
socket clip down to the clip lock.
Warning: Please save t he plastic ca p.

Installing a CPU Heatsink
1. Remove power from the system and unplug the AC power cord from the
power supply.
2. Do not apply any thermal grease to the heatsink or the CPU die; the required
amount has already been applied.
3. Place the heatsink on top of the CPU so that the four mounting holes are
aligned with those on the (preinstalled) heatsink retention mechanism.
4. Screw in two diagonal screws (i.e. the #1 and the #2 screws) until just snug.
Do not fully tighten the screws or you may damage the CPU.)
5. Add the two remaining screws then fi nish the installation by fully tightening all
four screws.

5-3 Connecting Cables
Now that the processors are installed, the next step is to connect the cables to the
motherboard. These include the data (ribbon) 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 in preconfi gured systems to p r eve nt t h e m from blockin g t h e fl ow of cooling
air that moves through the system from front to back. If you need to disconnect any
of these c a bles, you shou l d take care to rero ute them as they were originally after
reconnecti n g them (make sure the red wires connec t t o the pin 1 location s). If you
are confi guring the syst em, keep th e air fl ow in mind when routing the cables.
The following data cables (with their motherboard connector locations noted)
should be connected.
See the m other board l ayout diagr am in thi s chapter f or co nnecto r loc ation s.
• Control Panel cable (JF1, see next page)
• SAS or SATA cables (L-SAS0 through L-SAS7 or I-SATA0 through I-SATA5)
• SGPIO cables (6-SGPIO 1/2 and T-SGPIO 1/2 to SATA backplane)
Connecting Power Cables
The X10SL7-F has a 24 -pi n prima ry po wer supply c onnec tor des ignated "JPW1"
for con nec ti on to th e ATX power supp ly. Conne ct th e app ropr iate c on nec tor f rom
the power supply to JPW1 to supply power to the motherboard. See the Connector
Defi nitions s ecti on in thi s chapter f or power c onne ctor pi n defi nitions.
In addition, your power supply must be connected to the 8-pin Processor Power
connector at JPW2.
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.
Please note that even and odd numbered pins are on opposite sides of each header.
All JF1 wires have been bundled into single keyed ribbon cable to simplify their connection. Connect one end of this cable to JF1 and the other end to the Control Panel
printed circuit board, located just behind the system status LEDs in the chassis.
See the Connector Defi nitions section in this chapter for details and pin descrip-
tions of JF1.

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.
• Touch 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 motherboard, 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 motherboard.

6-2 Control Panel
The control panel (located on the front of the chassis) must be connected to the
JF1 connector on the motherboard 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 motherboard to the appropriate header on 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 control panel LEDs inform you of system status. See "Chapter 3: System Interface" for details on the LEDs and the control panel buttons. Details on JF1 can
be found in "Chapter 5: Advanced Motherboard Installation."
6-3 System Cooling
Four 4-cm fans provide the cooling for the system. The SC1 13MTQ chassis provides
two additional open fan housings, where additional system fans may be added for
optimal cooling.
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.
6-2
Chapter 6: Advanced Chassis Setup
Adding a System Fan
1. Turn off the power to the system and unplug the power cord.
2. Remove the chassis cover then remove the dummy fan from the fan tray.
3. Place the new fan into the vacant space in the housing while making sure the
arrows on the top of the fan (indicating air direction) point in the same direction as the arrows on the other fans.
4. Connect the fan wires to the fan header on the motherboard.
5. Power up the system and check that the fan is working properly before replacing the chassis cover.
System Fan Failure
Fan speed is controlled via IPMI. If a fan fails, the remaining fans will ramp up to
full speed. Replace any failed fan at your earliest convenience with the same type
and model (the system can continue to run with a failed fan).
The SC113MTQ chassis includes four pre-installed fans. Two additional open slots
are available so that up more fans may be added.
Replacing a System Fan (Figure 6-2)
1. Open the chassis while the system is running to determine which fan has
failed. Never run the server for an extended period of time with the chassis
open.
2. Turn off the power to the system and unplug the power cord from the power
supply.
3. Remove the failed fan's wiring from the fan header on the motherboard.
4. Lift the failed fan from the chassis and pull it completely out.
5. Place the new fan into the vacant space in the housing while making sure the
arrows on the top of the fan (indicating air direction) point in the same direction as the arrows on the other fans.
6. Reconnect the fan wires to the same chassis fan header as the previous fan.
7. Power up the system and check that the fan is working properly before replacing the chassis cover.
