8. Connect the riser card to the mother

board slot and fix the card with the

screw you removed at step 3.

When connecting the card, position the

terminal part of the card to the slot on

the motherboard and insert it.

9. Attach the removed parts back.

10. Turn on the server and make sure that no error messages are displayed on POST screen.

For details on POST error messages, refer to Chapter 3 (1. POST Error Message) in "Maintenance

Guide".

11. Start the BIOS Configuration utility installed on the mounted board to set up the board.

Availability or startup and operation procedure of the utility depends on board. For details, refer to the

manual that comes with the board. If a PCI card including RAID Controller, SCSI controller, and LAN

card which connects to any bootable device is added, the boot priority might be changed to the default

setting. In that case, configure the boot priority in the Boot menu of the BIOS Setup utility. For details

about the Boot menu, refer to Chapter 2 (1.2.5 Boot) in "Maintenance Guide".

(1) When using the optional controller (N8103-128/129/130/134/135)

For details, refer to the manual that comes with optional RAID Controller (N8103-128/129/130/134/135).

Important

The optional RAID Controller is extremely sensitive to static electricity.

Touch metal part of the server such as the frame to discharge static

electricity from your body before handling a RAID Controller. Do not touch

the terminal part or parts of RAID Controller board with bare hands or do not

place the board directly on a desk. For detailed explanation on static

electricity, refer to Chapter 2 (1.2 Anti-static Measures).

Note

• When installing an optional RAID Controller, start the BIOS Setup utility, select

PCI Configuration from the Advanced menu, and then make sure that the

parameter of PCI Slot xx ROM (xx is PCI slot number) is set to Enabled.

• When connecting a RAID Controller, set the boot priority to 8th or higher in the

Boot menu of the BIOS Setup utility. If the setting is 9th or lower, the

configuration menu for RAID Controllers cannot be launched.

Important

Do not change the mode to hibernate when building a RAID System.

Removal

To remove a riser card, reverse the installation procedure. Hold the card firmly and remove it. When

removing it, have another person hold the server so that the server does not move.

If using the server while the card is removed, attach the slot cover that comes with the riser card.
