8 Sun SPARC Enterprise T5140 and T5240 Servers Installation Guide • December 2010
▼ Prepare for Installation
1. Verify that you have received all of the components that ship with your server.
2. Gather configuration information for your system. See your system
administrator for specific details, including these parameters:
■ Netmask
■ IP address for the service processor
■ Gateway IP address
3. Install any optional components shipped with your system.
If you have purchased other optional components such as additional memory,
install them prior to mounting the server in a rack.

▼ Install the Hardware
1. Mount the server into a rack or cabinet. See “Installing the Servers in a Rack” on
page 19 for both the 1U and 2U servers. Or, if you ordered the express rail
rackmounting kit, which has the same rack rail assemblies for both servers, see
“Installing the Servers With the Express Rail Rackmounting Kit” on page 69.
Note – In the rest of this guide, the term rack means either an open rack or a closed
cabinet.
2. Connect the server to a serial terminal or a terminal emulator (PC or
workstation) to display system messages. See “Powering On the System for the
First Time” on page 41.
