Chapter 2: Server Installation Chapter 2 Server Installation 2-1 Overview This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your SuperServer 1027B-URF up and running. Following these steps in the order given should enable you to have the system operational within a minimum amount of time. This quick setup assumes that server system has come to you with the processors and memory preinstalled. If your system is not already fully integrated with a serverboard, processors, system memory etc.
SUPERSERVER 1027B-URF 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. Rack Precautions ! • Warnings and Precautions! ! Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully extended to the floor with the full weight of the rack resting on them. • In single rack installation, stabilizers should be attached to the rack.
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).
SUPERSERVER 1027B-URF User's Manual 2-4 Installing the System into a Rack This section provides information on installing the SuperServer 1027B-URF into a rack. If the system has already been mounted into a rack, you can skip ahead to Sections 2-5 and 2-6. Note: This rail will fit a rack between 26" and 33.5" deep. There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may mean the assembly procedure will differ slightly.
Chapter 2: Server Installation Inner Rails The SC113 chassis includes a set of inner rails in two sections: inner rails and inner rail extensions. The inner rails are pre-attached and do not interfere with normal use of the chassis if you decide not to use a server rack. Attach the inner rail extension to stabilize the chassis within the rack. Installing the Inner Rails (Figure 2-2) 1.
SUPERSERVER 1027B-URF User's Manual Outer Rails Installing the Outer Rails to the Rack (Figures 2-3 and 2-4) 1. Attach the short bracket to the outside of the long bracket. You must align the pins with the slides. Also, both bracket ends must face the same direction. 2. Adjust both the short and long brackets to the proper distance so that the rail fits snugly into the rack. 3.
Chapter 2: Server Installation 3 3 2 SCALE 0.380 Figure 2-4.
SUPERSERVER 1027B-URF User's Manual Installing the Chassis into a Rack (Figure 2-5) 1. Confirm that chassis includes the inner rails and rail extensions . Also, confirm that the outer rails are installed on the rack. 2. Line chassis rails with the front of the rack rails. 3. 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).
Chapter 2: Server Installation Installing the Server into a Telco Rack To install the SuperServer 1027B-URF into a Telco type rack, use two L-shaped brackets on either side of the chassis (four total). First, determine how far follow 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.

Chapter 3: System Interface Chapter 3 System Interface 3-1 Overview There are several LEDs on the control panel to keep you constantly informed of the overall status of the system as well as the three buttons described below. 3-2 Control Panel Buttons There are three buttons located on the front of the chassis: a reset button, a power on/off button and a UID button. Reset Use the reset button to reboot the system.
SUPERSERVER 1027B-URF User's Manual 3-3 Control Panel LEDs The control panel located on the front of the SC113TQ chassis has five LEDs. These LEDs provide you with critical information related to different parts of the system. This section explains what each LED indicates when illuminated and any corrective action you may need to take. Information LED This LED will be solid blue when the UID function has been activated. When this LED flashes red, it indicates a fan failure.
Chapter 3: System Interface NIC2 Indicates network activity on LAN2 when flashing. NIC1 Indicates network activity on LAN1 when flashing. HDD Indicates DVD-ROM/hard drive activity when flashing. Power Indicates power is being supplied to the system's power supply units. This LED should normally be illuminated when the system is operating.
SUPERSERVER 1027B-URF User's Manual 3-4 Hard Drive Carrier LEDs Each hard drive carrier has two LEDs. • Green: When illuminated, the green LED on the front of the drive carrier indicates drive activity. A connection to the SATA backplane enables this LED to blink on and off when that particular drive is being accessed. • Red: The red LED indicates two states. When blinking, it indicates the drive is rebuilding. When solid, it indicates a drive failure.
Chapter 4: System Safety Chapter 4 System Safety 4-1 Electrical Safety Precautions ! Basic electrical safety precautions should be followed to protect yourself from harm and the SuperServer 1027B-URF from damage: • Be aware of the locations of the power on/off switch on the chassis as well as the room's emergency power-off switch, disconnection switch or electrical outlet. If an electrical accident occurs, you can then quickly remove power from the system.
SUPERSERVER 1027B-URF User's Manual • Serverboard Battery: CAUTION - There is a danger of explosion if the onboard battery is installed upside down, which will reverse its polarites (see Figure 4-1). This battery must be replaced only with the same or an equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer (CR2032). Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions. • DVD-ROM Laser: CAUTION - this server may have come equipped with a DVD-ROM drive.
Chapter 4: System Safety • After accessing the inside of the system, close the system back up and secure it to the rack unit after ensuring that all connections have been made. 4-3 ESD Precautions ! Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is generated by two objects with different electrical charges coming into contact with each other. An electrical discharge is created to neutralize this difference, which can damage electronic components and printed circuit boards.
SUPERSERVER 1027B-URF User's Manual 4-4 Operating Precautions ! Care must be taken to assure that the chassis cover is in place when the 1027BURF is operating to assure proper cooling. Out of warranty damage to the system can occur if this practice is not strictly followed. Figure 4-1. Installing the Onboard Battery UM B B ER O ER ER ! Please handle used batteries carefully. Do not damage the battery in any way; a damaged battery may release hazardous materials into the environment.
Chapter 5: Advanced Serverboard Setup Chapter 5 Advanced Serverboard Setup This chapter covers the steps required to install processors and heatsinks to the X9DBU-iF serverboard, connect the data and power cables and install add-on cards. All serverboard jumpers and connections are described and a layout and quick reference chart are included in this chapter. Remember to close the chassis completely when you have finished working on the serverboard to protect and cool the system sufficiently.
SUPERSERVER 1027B-URF User's Manual 5-2 Processor and Heatsink Installation When handling the processor, avoid placing direct pressure on the label area of the fan. Also, do not place the serverboard on a conductive ! surface, which can damage the BIOS battery and prevent the system from booting up. Notes: • Always connect the power cord last and always remove it before adding, removing or changing any hardware components.
Chapter 5: Advanced Serverboard Setup 5. Align the CPU key, which is a semicircle cutout, against the socket CPU Key key, which is the notch below the gold color dot on the side of the socket. 6.
