Checking the Serverboard Setup

After you install the 6014P-8/6014P-8R/6014P-82R/6014P-82 in the rack,

you will need to open the top cover to make sure the serverboard is prop-

erly installed and all the connections have been made.

1.

Accessing the inside of the System (see Figure 2-5)

First, release the retention screws that secure the system to the rack.

Grasp the two handles on either side and pull the system straight out until

it locks (you will hear a "click"). Next, depress the two buttons on the top

of the chassis to release the top cover (1). Push the cover away from you

(toward the rear of the chassis) until it stops (2). You can then lift the top

cover from the chassis to gain full access to the inside of the server.

To remove the system from the rack completely, depress the locking tabs in

the chassis rails (push the right-side tab down and the left-side tab up) to

continue to pull the system out past the locked position.

2.

Check the CPUs (processors)

Y o u s h o u l d h a v e o n e o r t w o p r o c e s s o r s a l r e a d y i n s t a l l e d i n t h e

serverboard. Each processor needs its own heatsink. See Chapter 5 for

instructions on processor and heatsink installation.

3.

Check the system memory

Your server system may have come with system memory already installed.

Make sure all DIMMs are fully seated in their slots. For details on adding

system memory, refer to Chapter 5.

4.

Installing add-on cards

If desired, you can install add-on cards to the system. See Chapter 5 for

details on installing PCI add-on cards.

5.

Check all cable connections and airflow

Make sure all power and data cables are properly connected and not block-

ing the chassis airflow. See Chapter 5 for details on cable connections.
