Turning on the system drawer 21
If rack mounted units are installed in a closed or multi-rack cabinet, they may
require further evaluation by Certification Agencies. The ambient temperature
within the cabinet may be greater than room temperature. Make sure the
amount of air flow required for safe operation is not compromised. The
maximum temperature for this environment must not exceed 122
°(50C).
Turning on the system drawer
To turn on the system drawer for the first time:
1 If using a UPS, turn it on first.
2 Turn on the monitor and any additional devices connected to the system
drawer. Listen for alarms which may indicate power problems.
3 If multiple system drawers and a switch box are installed, press the switch
box button that corresponds to the system drawer being turned on.
4 Press the ON/OFF button on the system drawer.
5 Listen for alarms which may indicate power problems.
6 Make sure the power indicator is illuminated. The monitor should display
the normal Power On Self-Test (POST) information. If the monitor does
not display information or the system drawer indicates an error has
occurred, refer to the server system manual troubleshooting section.
7 When the system drawer starts successfully, install the operating system,
if necessary.
8 Turn on the other system drawers by repeating Steps 3 through 7 for each
additional system drawer installed.
After this procedure, the system drawer can be turned on using normal start
sequences.
Important If multiple system drawers are installed, you must turn on
each system drawer and wait for it to start completely
before turning on the next system drawer.
