2-6 Checking the Serverboard Setup
After setting up the the system, you will need to open the unit to make sure the
serverboard is properly installed and all the connections have been made.
Accessing the Inside of the System
1. If rack mounted, fi rst release the screws that secure the unit to the rack.
2. Grasp the two handles on either side and pull the unit straight out until it
locks (you will hear a "click").
3. There are two screws that secure the cover to the chassis - remove these
fi rst.
4. Locate the latch on the top (side if tower) of the chassis - depress where it
says "push" then lift the latch to release the cover.
5. Lift the cover from the chassis to gain full access to the inside of the server.
See Figure 2-5.
Checking the Components and Setup
1. You may have one or two processors already installed into the serverboard.
Each processor should have its own heatsink attached. See Chapter 5 for
instructions on processor installation.
2. Your server 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.
3. If desired, you can install add-on cards to the system. See Chapter 5 for
details on installing PCI add-on cards.
4. 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.
