Chapter 2: Server Installation
Chapter 2
Server Installation
2-1 Overview
This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your 6016T-6RFT+/6016T-6RF+
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 pre-installed. 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 6016T -6RFT+/6016T-6RF+ 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 6016T-6RFT+/6016T6RF+. 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. Be sure to read the Rack
and Server Precautions in the next section.
2-3 Preparing for Setup
The box the 6016T-6RFT+/6016T-6RF+ 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
2-1
SUPERSERVER 6016T-6RFT+/6016T-6RF+ User's Manual
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 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 SAS/SATA 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
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.

2-5 Installing the System into a Rack
This section provides information on installing the 6016T-6RFT+/6016T-6RF+ into
a rack unit with the rack rails provided. If the system has already been mounted
into a rack, you can skip ahead to Sections 2-5 and 2-6. 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.
Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails
You should have received two rack 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 (see Figure 2-1). Two pairs of short brackets to be used on the front side of
the outer rails are also included.
Installing the Inner Rails
Both the left and right side inner rails have been pre-attached to the chassis. Proceed to the next step.
Figure 2-1. Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails
(left side rail shown)
Inner Rail Outer RailLocking Tab
Warning: do not pick up the server with the front handles. They are de-
signed to pull the system from a rack only.
2-4
Chapter 2: Server Installation
Installing the Outer Rails
Installing the Outer Rails to the Rack
1. Measure the distance from the front rail to the rear rail of the rack.
2. Attach a short bracket to the front side of the right outer rail and a long
bracket to the rear side of the right outer rail.
3. Adjust both the short and long brackets to the proper distance so that the rail
can fi t snugly into the rack.
4. Secure the short bracket to the front side of the outer rail with two M4 screws
and the long bracket to the rear side of the outer rail with three M4 screws.
5. Repeat these steps for the left outer rail.
Locking Tabs
Both chassis rails have a locking tab, which serves two functions. The fi rst is to
lock the server into place when installed and pushed fully into the rack, which is
its normal position. Secondly, these tabs also lock the server in place when fully
extended from the rack. This prevents the server from coming completely out of the
rack when you pull it out for servicing.

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.
Installing the Server into a Telco Rack
To install the 6016T-6RFT+/6016T-6RF+ into a Telco type rack, use two L-shaped
brackets on either side of the chassis (four total).
1. 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.
2. 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
the telco rack.
3. Finish by sliding the chassis into the rack and tightening the brackets to the
rack.
Note: Figure is for illustrative purposes only. Always install servers to the bottom
of a rack fi rst.
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.

2-6 Checking the Serverboard Setup
After you install the system in the rack, you will need to open the top cover to
make sure the serverboard is properly installed and all the connections have been
made.
Accessing the Inside of the System
1. First, grasp the two handles on either side and pull the system straight out
until it locks (you will hear a "click").
2. Next, press the two buttons on the top of the chassis to release the top cover.
3. Push the cover away from you (toward the rear of the chassis) until it stops.
You can then lift the top cover from the chassis to gain full access to the
inside of the server.
4. To remove the system from the rack completely, press the locking tabs in
the chassis rails (push the right-side tab down and the left-side tab up) to
continue to pull the system out past the locked position.
Checking the Components
1. You may have one or two processors already installed in the serverboard.
Each processor needs its own heatsink. See Chapter 5 for instructions on
processor and heatsink installation.
2. Your server system may have come with system memory already installed.
Make sure all DIMMs are fully seated in their slots. For details on adding
system memory, refer to Chapter 5.
3. If desired, you can install an add-on card to the system. See Chapter 5 for
details on installing PCI add-on cards.
4. Make sure all power and data cables are properly connected and not blocking
the chassis airfl ow. See Chapter 5 for details on cable connections.

2-7 Checking the Drive Bay Setup
Next, you should check to make sure the peripheral drives and the hard drives and
backplane have been properly installed and all connections have been made.
Checking the Drives
1. All drives are accessable from the front of the server. The hard disk drives
can be installed and removed from the front of the chassis without removing
the top chassis cover.
2. A slim DVD-ROM drive should be preinstalled in your server. For servicing
the DVD-ROM drive, you will need to remove the top chassis cover. Refer to
Chapter 6 if you need to reinstall a DVD-ROM drive to the system.
3. Depending upon your system's confi guration, your system may have one or
more drives already installed. If you need to install hard drives, please refer to
Chapter 6.
Checking the Airfl ow
1. Airfl ow is provided by fi ve sets of 4-cm fans (each set of fans consists of
two fans that are mounted back to back). The system component layout was
carefully designed to direct suffi cient cooling airfl ow to the components that
generate the most heat.
2. Note that all power and data cables have been routed in such a way that they
do not block the airfl ow generated by the fans.
Providing Power
1. The last thing you must do is to provide input power to the system. Plug the
power cord from the power supply module into a high-quality power strip that
offers protection from electrical noise and power surges.
2. It is recommended that you use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS)
source.

3-1 Overview
There are several LEDs on the control panel as well as others on the hard drive
carriers to keep you constantly informed of the overall status of the system as well
as the activity and health of specifi c components. There are also two buttons on
the chassis control panel and an on/off switch on the power supply. This chapter
explains the meanings of all LED indicators and the appropriate response you may
need to take.
3-2 Control Panel Buttons
There are three push-buttons located on the front of the chassis. These are (in order
from left to right) A UID button, a reset button and a power on/off button.
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.
Reset
The reset button reboots the system.
Power
The main power switch is used to apply or remove power from the power supply
to the server system. Turning off system power with this button removes the main
power but keeps standby power supplied to the system.

3-3 Control Panel LEDs
The control panel located on the front of the SC819TQ 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.
UID/Overheat/Fan Fail/Power Fail
Blue: This LED turns on when either the front or the rear UID button is pushed.
Pushing either button a second time will turn this LED off.
Red: When this LED fl ashes quickly it indicates a fan failure. When fl ashing slowly
it indicates a power supply failure. When on continuously (on and not fl ashing) 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 overheat condition exists.
