Chapter 2: Server Installation

Chapter 2

Rack Installation

2-1 Overview

This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your chassis up and running.
Following these steps in the order given should enable you to have the system
operational within a minimal amount of time.

2-2 Unpacking the System

You should inspect the box which the chassis was shipped in and note if it was
damaged in any way. If the chassis 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 your chassis. 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. The system needs
to be 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 your chassis was shipped in should include two sets of rail assemblies and
the mounting screws needed for installing the system into the rack. Also included
is an optional square hole to round hole converter bracket, for use in racks with
round mounting holes. 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).

• Leave 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).

2-2

SUPERSERVER 4048B-TRFT USER'S MANUAL

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 installations, stabilizers should be attached to the rack.

• In multiple rack installations, the racks should be coupled together.

• Always make sure that 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.

General Server Precautions

• Review the electrical and general safety precautions that came with the com-

ponents you are adding to your chassis.

• 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 upwards.

• 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 hard 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.

2-3

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

SUPERSERVER 4048B-TRFT USER'S MANUAL

2-5 Rack Mounting Instructions

This section provides information on installing the chassis into a rack unit with the
rails provided. There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may mean
that the assembly procedure will differ slightly from the instructions provided. 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 26.5" and 36.4" deep

Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails

The chassis package includes a rack rail assembly in the rack mounting kit. Each
assembly consists of three sections: An inner chassis rail which secures directly to
the chassis, an outer rail that secures to the rack, and a middle rail which extends
from the outer rail. These assemblies are specifi cally designed for the left and right
side of the chassis..

Installing the Inner Rails on the Chassis

Installing the Inner Rails

1. Place the inner rails on the side of the chassis aligning the hooks of the chas­sis with the inner rail holes. Make sure that the rail faces "outward" so that it
will fi t with the rack's mounting bracket.

2. Slide the rail toward the front of the chassis.

Chapter 2: Server Installation

Figure 2-2. Extending and Releasing the Inner Rail

3. Secure the rail to the chassis with four screws as illustrated.

4. Repeat steps 1-3 for the other inner rack rail.Locking Tabs

Each inner rail has a locking tab. This tab locks the chassis into place when installed
and pushed fully into the rack. These tabs also lock the chassis in place when fully
extended from the rack. This prevents the server from coming completely out of
the rack when when the chassis is pulled out for servicing.

Releasing the Inner Rail

Releasing Inner Rail from the Outer Rails

1. Identify the left and right outer rail assemblies as described on page 5-4.

2. Pull the inner rail out of the outer rail until it is fully extended as illustrated
below.

3. Press the locking tab down to release the inner rail.

4. Pull the inner rail all the way out.

5. Repeat steps 1-3 for the second outer rail.

Chapter 5

Advanced Serverboard Setup

This chapter covers the steps required to install the X10QBi-F serverboard into the
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 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.

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.

SUPERSERVER 4048B-TRFT USER'S MANUAL

5-2 Connecting Cables

Now that the processors are installed, the next step is to connect the cables to

the serverboard.

Connecting Data Cables

The cables used to transfer data from the peripheral devices have been carefully

routed in preconfi gured systems 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 reroute them as they were originally

after reconnecting them (make sure the red wires connect to the pin 1 locations). If

you are confi guring the system, keep the airfl ow in mind when routing the cables.

The following cables need to be connected for the SuperServer 4048B-TRFT

system:

• One (1) round 76-cm (30") 16-to-16-pin ribbon FP cable (CBL-0071L)

• One (1) power extension cable; one HDD to two HDD and two FDD

(CBL-0099)

• Two (2) cross-over mini SAS HD to four SATA HD cable (CBL-SAST-0591)

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.

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. The red wire in the ribbon cable plugs into pin 1 of JF1. Connect the

other end of the cable to the Control Panel printed circuit board, located just behind

the system status LEDs in the chassis.

5-4 Processor and Heatsink Installation

Warning: When handling the processor package, avoid placing direct pressure on

the label area.

Notes

• Always connect the power cord last, and always remove it before adding,

removing 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 system board into the chassis before you install the

CPU heatsink.

• When receiving a server board 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 Supermicro website for updates on CPU support.

• When one CPU is installed, be sure to installed to CPU Socket 1 fi rst.

5-7 Adding PCI Expansion Cards

The 4048B-TRFT supports up to 11 PCI Express cards (four x16 and seven x8 slots).

Installing an Expansion Card

1. After powering down the system, remove the PCI slot shield.

2. Fully seat the card into the slot, pushing down with your thumbs evenly on
both sides of the card. Note that each slot is controlled by a specifi c CPU. To
use that slot, the corresponding CPU must be installed (see below).

3. Finish by using a screw to secure the top of the card shield to the chassis.

Figure 5-6. PCI Cards and Corresponding CPUs

Note: PCI-E slots and CPUs support auto-switching. Refer to the table below for

PCI-E slot support. On board rev. 1.01 or below, I-SATA3 and I-SATA 4 are reversed.

CMOS Clear

JBT1 is used to clear CMOS, which will also clear any passwords. Instead of pins,
this jumper consists of contact pads to prevent accidentally clearing the contents
of CMOS.

To Clear CMOS

1. First power down the system and unplug the power cord(s). It is also
recommended that you remove the onboard battery from the serverboard.

2. With the power disconnected, short the CMOS pads with a metal object such
as a small screwdriver.

3. Remove the screwdriver (or shorting device).

4. Reconnect the power cord(s) and power on the system.

Note: Do not use the PW_ON connector to clear CMOS.

5-10 Jumper Settings

Explanation of Jumpers

To modify the operation of the serverboard,
jumpers can be used to choose between
optional settings. Jumpers create shorts
between two pins to change the function
of the connector. Pin 1 is identifi ed with
a square solder pad on the printed circuit
board. See the diagram at right for an
example of jumping pins 1 and 2. Refer to the
serverboard layout page for jumper locations.

Note: On two-pin jumpers, "Closed" means
the jumper is on and "Open" means the
jumper is off the pins.
