Chapter 2
Server Installation
2-1 Overview
This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your SuperServer
5010H/5010E 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 SuperServer 5010H/5010E
system has come to you with the processor and memory preinstalled. If
your system is not already fully integrated with a motherboard, processor,
system memory etc., please turn to the chapter or section noted in each
step for details on installing specific components.
2-2 Unpacking the SuperServer 5010H/5010E
You should inspect the box the SuperServer 5010H/5010E was shipped in
and note if it was damaged in any way. If the server itself shows damage,
you should file a damage claim with the carrier who delivered it.
Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold the SuperServer
5010H/5010E. It should be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well
ventilated. Avoid areas where heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic
fields are generated. You will also need it placed near a grounded power
outlet. Read the Rack and Server Precautions in the next section.
2-3 Preparing for Setup
The box the SuperServer 5010H/5010E was shipped in should include two
sets of rail assemblies, two rail mounting brackets and the mounting screws
you will need 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.
