Connecting the cables
Attention: To prevent damage to equipment, connect the power cords last.
If the server cables and connector panel have color-coded connectors, match the
color of each cable end with the color of the connector. For example, match a blue
cable end to a blue connector on the panel, a red cable end with a red connector,
and so on.
The following illustration shows the input/output (I/O) connectors on the rear of the

Updating the server configuration
When you start the server for the first time after you add or remove an internal or
external device, you might receive a message that the configuration has changed.
The Configuration/Setup Utility program starts automatically so that you can save
the new configuration settings. See “Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program”
on page 47 for additional information.
Some options have device drivers that you must install. For information about
installing device drivers, see the documentation that comes with each option.
