This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your SuperServer 6017RM7UF/6017R-M7RF up and running. Following the steps in the order given should
enable you to have the system operational within a minimal amount of time. This
quick setup assumes that your system has come to you with the processor and
memory preinstalled. If your system is not already fully integrated with a motherboard, processor, 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 server 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 6017R-M7UF/6017R-M7RF was shipped in should include
two sets of rail assemblies, six 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 minimal 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 6017R-M7UF/6017R-M7RF 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.
2-2
Chapter 2: Server Installation
• Always keep the rack's front door and all panels and components on the servers
closed when not servicing to maintain proper cooling.
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.).

2-5 Installing the System into a Rack
This section provides information on installing the SuperServer 6017R-M7UF/6017RM7RF into a rack unit with the rack rails provided. If the server 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 may have received rack rail hardware with the server. (Two front inner rails
should already be attached to the chassis.) This hardware consists of two rear inner
rails that secure to the chassis, one on each side just behind the preinstalled front
inner rails. Note that these two rails are left/right specifi c.
Installing the Rear Inner Rails
First, locate the right rear inner rail (the rail that will be used on the right side of
the chassis when you face the front of the chassis). Align the two square holes on
the rail against the hooks on the right side of the chassis. Securely attach the rail
to the chassis with M4 fl at head screws. Repeat these steps to install the left rear
inner rail to the left side of the chassis (see Figure 2-1). You will also need to attach
the rail brackets when installing into a telco rack.
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.
2-4
Chapter 2: Server Installation
Figure 2-1. Installing Rear Inner Chassis Rails
Installing the Rack Rails
Determine where you want to place the SuperServer 6017R-M7UF/6017R-M7RF
in the rack (see Rack and Server Precautions in Section 2-4). Position the chassis
rail guides at the desired location in the rack, keeping the sliding rail guide facing
the inside of the rack. Screw the assembly securely to the rack using the brackets
provided. Attach the other assembly to the other side of the rack, making sure that
both are at the exact same height and with the rail guides facing inward.
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
SUPERSERVER 6017R-M7UF/6017R-M7RF User's Manual
Installing the Server into the Rack
You should now have rails attached to both the chassis and the rack unit. The next
step is to install the server into the rack. Do this by lining up the rear of the chassis
rails with the front of the rack rails. 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). See Figure 2-2.
When the server has been pushed completely into the rack, you should hear the
locking tabs "click".
Figure 2-2. Installing the Server into a Rack
Note: this fi gure is for illustrative purposes only. Always install servers to the bot-
tom of a rack fi rst.
Warning: do not pick up the server with the front handles. They are designed to pull the system from a rack only.
2-6
Chapter 2: Server Installation
Installing the Server into a Telco Rack
To install the SuperServer 6017R-M7UF/6017R-M7RF into a Telco type rack, use
two L-shaped brackets on either side of the chassis (four total). First, determine
how far 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 the rack. Finish by sliding the chassis into the rack and tightening the
brackets to the rack.
Figure 2-3. Installing the Server into a Telco 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.

Chapter 5
Advanced Serverboard Setup
This chapter covers the steps required to install the X9DRL-7F serverboard into
the SC813MFTQ-400CB/R400CB chassis, 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 X9DRL-7F 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 Electrostatic Discharge
(ESD).
• 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 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.
5-1
SUPERSERVER 6017R-M7UF/6017R-M7RF User's Manual
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.
5-2 Serverboard Installation
This section explains the fi rst step of physically mounting the X9DRL-7F into the
SC813MFTQ-400CB/R400CB chassis. Following the steps in the order given will
eliminate the most common problems encountered in such an installation. To remove
the serverboard, follow the procedure in reverse order.
Installing to the Chassis
1. Remove the screws from the rear lip of the chassis cover (see Figure 2-5).
2. Release the top cover by pushing it away from you until it stops. You can
then lift the top cover from the chassis to gain full access to the inside of the
server
3. Make sure that the I/O ports on the serverboard align properly with their
respective holes in the I/O shield at the back of the chassis.
4. Carefully mount the serverboard to the serverboard tray by aligning the board
holes with the raised metal standoffs that are visible in the chassis.
5. Insert screws into all the mounting holes on your serverboard that line up with
the standoffs and tighten until snug (if you screw them in too tight, you might
strip the threads).
Note: Metal screws provide an electrical contact to the serverboard ground to
provide a continuous ground for the system.
Warning: To avoid damaging the serverboard and its components, do not apply
any force greater than 8 lbs. per square inch when installing a screw into a mounting hole.
5-2
Chapter 5: Advanced Serverboard Setup
5-3 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 5-9 for connector locations.)
• SAS/SATA drive cables (L-SAS0 ~ L-SAS3)
• SGPIO cable (6-SGPIO 0)
• Control Panel cable (JF1)
Connecting Power Cables
The X9DRL-7F has a 24-pin primary power supply connector (JPW4) for connection
to the ATX power supply. In addition, there are two 8-pin processor power connectors (JPW1/JPW2) that also must be connected to your power supply. See Section
5-9 for power connector pin defi nitions.
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 ribbon 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.

This chapter covers the steps required to install components and perform maintenance on the SC813MFTQ 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
maintainance 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 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 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.

6-3 System Fans
Five 4-cm high-performance fans provide the cooling for the SuperServer 6017RM7UF/6017R-M7RF. The chassis includes air seals under the fans and at the
chassis cross section, which separates the drive bay area from the serverboard
area of the chassis to promote better airfl ow. It is highly important that the air seal
is properly installed and making a good seal in order for the cooling air to circulate
properly through the chassis.
The fans can adjust their speed according to the heat level sensed in the system,
which results in more effi cient and quieter fan operation. Fan speed is controlled
by IPMI.
System Fan Failure
If a fan fails, you will need to have it replaced with the same type. Contact your
vendor or Supermicro for information on replacement fans.
6-4 Drive Bay Installation/Removal
