Chapter 2

Server Installation

2-1 Overview

This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get the 5026Ti-BTRF 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 your 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., please turn to the chapter or section noted in each step for details on

installing speciﬁ c components.

2-2 Unpacking the System

You should inspect the box the system was shipped in and note if it was damaged

in any way. If the server itself shows damage you should ﬁ le a damage claim with

the carrier who delivered it.

Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold the server. It should be

situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas where heat,

electrical noise and electromagnetic ﬁ elds are generated. You will also need it placed

near a grounded power outlet. Be sure to read the Rack and Server Precautions

in the next section.

2-3 Preparing for Setup

The box the server was shipped in should include the rackmount hardware needed

to install the system into the rack. Follow the steps in the order given to complete

the installation process in a minimum amount of time. Please read this section in

its entirety before you begin the installation procedure outlined in the sections that

follow.
