This chapter outlines the procedure to set up your system and install it to a rack. If
your system is not already fully integrated with a motherboard, 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 system 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. Y ou 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 server may have come with hardware to mount the system into a server rack. If
mounting to a rack with the rail kit, 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 5037MC-H12TRF User's 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 it.
• 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 supplies 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.

SUPERSERVER 5037MC-H12TRF User's Manual
2-5 Installing the System into a Rack
Use the procedure below for installing the system to a rack.
1. Decide where you want to place the system into the rack (see "Rack Mounting Considerations" in the previous section).
2. Position the template at the front of the system to determine the locations of
the screws for the chassis rails (see Figure 2-1).
Figure 2-1. Positioning the Template
3. The two rail sections are screwed together to keep them immobile during
shipping. Release these screws just enough to allow the rails to slide apart.
Note the arrow on the rail, which indicates the end that attaches to the front
of the rack.
4. Slide the rails apart far enough to match the depth of the rack. Position the
rails with the template and secure the front of each to the front of the rack
with two fl athead screws, then secure the back of each rail to the rear of the
rack with two fl athead screws (see Figure 2-2). Note that the rails are left/right
specifi c and very heavy.
5. (Optional step) Add the front left and right handles to the chassis using
screws to secure each handle. Install a thumbscrew through the bottom hole
of each handle.
2-4
Chapter 2: Server Installation
Figure 2-2. Securing the Rails to the Rack
Note: These handles are optional and need only be installed when mounting the
system into a short rack. When mounting into a deep rack, they are unnecessary
and regular screws should be used instead of thumbscrews.
6. With one person on either side, lift the system and slide it into the installed
rails.
7. After pushing the enclosure all the way into the rack, use two roundhead
screws on each side of the server to lock it into place.
Warning: do not pick up the server with the front handles. They are designed to pull the system from a rack only.

Advanced Motherboard Setup
This chapter covers the steps required to connect the data and power cables and
install add-on cards. All motherboard 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 server to better cool and protect the system.
5-1 Handling the Motherboard
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 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 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 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.
5-1
SUPERSERVER 5037MC-H12TRF User's Manual
Unpacking
The motherboard is shipped in antistatic packaging to avoid electro static discharge.
When unpacking the board, make sure the person handling it is static protected.
5-2 Motherboard Installation/Removal
The X9SCE-F motherboards have been preinstalled into carriers to simplify installing and removing the nodes from the SC939H-R1K63B chassis. The motherboards
should remain in these carriers at all times. If a failed node needs to be returned
for repair or replacement, the motherboard is to be shipped assembled in its carrier and not by itself. See Chapter 6 for instructions on installing and removing the
motherboard nodes from the chassis.
5-3 Connecting Cables
The 5037MC-H12TRF server was designed as a cableless system. As a result, all
power and data connections to the motherboard nodes are made whenever a node
is installed into its bay in the chassis. This covers the main power connection, the
control panel connections and the data and power connections for the SATA drives.
5-4 I/O Ports
The I/O ports are located at the back of the motherbord node. See Figure 5-1
below for the colors and locations of the various I/O ports. See Section 5-10 for
port defi nitions.

5-5 Processor and Heatsink Installation
Notes:
• When changing the CPU in a node, always power down the node fi rst and
remove it from the chassis. Make sure that you install the CPU into its 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.
• 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 LGA1155 Processor
1. Press the load lever to release the load plate, which covers the CPU socket,
from its locked position.
2. Gently li ft t he load l ever to open t he load p late. Remove th e plate cap.

SUPERSERVER 5037MC-H12TRF User's Manual
3. Use your thumb and your index fi nger to hold the CPU at the top center edge
and the bottom center edge of the CPU.
4. Align the CPU key (the semi-circle cutouts) against the socket keys. Once
aligned, carefully lower the CPU straight down to the socket. (Do not drop the
CPU on the socket. Do not move the CPU horizontally or vertically.
Do not rub the CPU against the surface or against any pins of the socket to
avoid damage to the CPU or the socket.)
With the CPU inside the socket, inspect the four corners of the CPU to make
sure that the CPU is properly installed.
5. Use your thumb to gently push the load lever down to the lever lock.
Save the plastic PnP cap. The motherboard must be shipped with the PnP
cap properly installed to protect the CPU socket pins. Shipment without the
PnP cap properly installed will cause damage to the socket pins.
Warning: The CPU will only seat inside the socket in one direction. Make sure it is
properly inserted before closing the load plate. If it doesn't close properly, do not force
it as it may damage your CPU. Instead, open the load plate again and double-check
that the CPU is aligned properly.

7-1 Introduction
This chapter describes the AMI BIOS Setup Utility for the X9SCD-F/X9SCD+-F/
X9SCD+-HF motherboard. The AMI ROM BIOS is stored in a Flash EEPROM and
can be easily updated. This chapter describes the basic navigation of the AMI BIOS
Setup Utility setup screens.
Note: For instructions on BIOS recovery, please refer to the instruction
guide posted at http://www.supermicro.com/support/manuals/.
Starting BIOS Setup Utility
To enter the AMI BIOS Setup Utility screens, press the <Delete> key while the
system is booting up.
Note: In most cases, the <Delete> key is used to invoke the AMI BIOS
setup screen. There are a few cases when other keys are used, such as
<F1>, <F2>, etc.
Each main BIOS menu option is described in this manual. The Main BIOS setup
menu screen has two main frames. The left frame displays all the options that can
be confi gured. Grayed-out options cannot be confi gured. Options in blue can be
confi gured by the user. The right frame displays the key legend. Above the key
legend is an area reserved for a text message. When an option is selected in the
left frame, it is highlighted in white. Often a text message will accompany it. (Note:
the AMI BIOS has default text messages built in. Supermicro retains the option to
include, omit, or change any of these text messages.)
The AMI BIOS Setup Utility uses a key-based navigation system called "hot keys".
Most of the AMI BIOS setup utility "hot keys" can be used at any time during the
setup navigation process. These keys include <F1>, <F10>, <Enter>, <ESC>, arrow keys, etc.
Note: Options printed in Bold are default settings.
How To Change the Confi guration Data
The confi guration data that determines the system parameters may be changed by
entering the AMI BIOS Setup utility. This Setup utility can be accessed by pressing
<Del> at the appropriate time during system boot.
