2-5 Checking the Serverboard Setup

After you install the 6015B-T+/6015B-8+ in the rack, you will need to open the unit

to make sure the serverboard is properly installed and all the connections have

been made.

1. Accessing the inside of the 6015B-T+/6015B-8+ (see Figure 2-5)

First, grasp the two handles on either side and pull the unit 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. There is a large rectangular recess in the

middle front of the top cover to help you push the cover away from you until it

stops. You can then lift the top cover from the chassis to gain full access to

the

inside

of

the

server.

2. Check the CPUs (processors)

You should have one or two processors already installed into the serverboard.

Each processor needs its own heatsink. See Chapter 5 for instructions on pro-

cessor and heatsink installation.

3. CPU

Speed

The CPU speed should automatically be detected so you will not need to change

any jumpers or settings in the BIOS Setup utility.

4. Check the system memory

Your 6015B-T+/6015B-8+ 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.

5. 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.

6. Check all cable connections and airfl ow

Make sure all power and data cables are properly connected and not blocking

the chassis airfl ow. See Chapter 5 for details on cable connections.
