Initial System Configuration

Before You Begin

Power Requirements

NOTICE:

The enclosure power supplies must be connected to a Type B or

permanently-connected PDU, not directly to an electrical outlet. The power
supplies require a 200–240 V power source.

Network Information

If your network uses static addressing, you will need the IP address, subnet
mask, and gateway to configure the CMC and other modules in the enclosure.

Initial Setup Sequence

1 Unpack the enclosure and install it in a rack.

See the Getting Started Guide and Rack Installation Guide for more
information.

NOTICE:

Do not power-on the blades (server modules) until you have configured

the switch modules, as described in "Configuring the I/O Modules" on page 37.

2 Connect power to the power supplies.

NOTICE:

The power supplies must be connected to a PDU, not directly to an

electrical outlet. The power supplies require a 200–240 V power source.

3 If an optional iKVM module is installed, connect the keyboard, video, and

mouse to the enclosure control panel (see Figure 1-4) or to the iKVM
module (see Figure 1-11).

NOTE:

Connecting a keyboard, video, and mouse to the enclosure front panel

will disable video output to the iKVM back panel port.
