Setup Procedure
Checking Server Cabling
Important:
Cables to external peripherals must NOT be connected before powering up the server for the
first time.
These cables must only be connected once server operation has been checked.
All internal cabinet cables are pre-connected before shipping. However, cables may become
loose during shipping and you are advised to check for loose cables before powering up the
server. Refer to the Cabling Guide, 86 A192ER for details.
Connecting the Server to the Site Power Supply
The Customer is responsible for ensuring that the electrical network is compliant with the
standards set out in the Site Preparation Guide, 86 A1 87EF.
CAUTION:
Only duly certified electricians may connect the server to the power supply, under the
Customer's responsibility. The server is NOT equipped with a circuit breaker. The circuit
breakers referred to in this section are the SITE circuit breakers supplied by the Customer.
Safety Recommendations
DANGER
An electrical outlet that is not correctly wired could place hazardous voltage on metal parts
of the server or the devices that attach to the server. It is the Customer's responsibility to
ensure that the outlet is correctly wired and grounded to prevent an electrical shock.
Use one hand, when possible, to connect or disconnect signal cables to prevent a possible
shock from touching two surfaces with different electrical potentials.
CAUTION:
The server is equipped with three-wire (phase/phase/ground) power cables for user safety.
Use these power cables with properly grounded electrical outlets to avoid electrical shock.
1. The server has more than one power supply cable. Follow procedures for removal of
power from the server when directed.
2. Energy hazard, remove all jewelry before servicing.
3. Check that the dedicated power supply circuit breakers are OFF.
Powering Up the Server to the Standby Mode
Once the PDU cables have been connected to the power outlets at the base of the cabinet,
request the Customer to turn the site power supply circuit breakers ON.
The Platform Management Board (PMB) in each CSS module automatically powers up to the
standby mode (48V) and the Platform Administration Processor (PAP) unit automatically boots
Microsoft Windows software. Server operation can now be checked.
Note:
It may take several seconds for something to be displayed on the monitor. If the server does
not initialize to standby (48V) or if an incident occurs, refer to Troubleshooting
Guide, 86 A7 91EF and Praxidiag Diagnostics Guide, 86 A7 33ER.
