Chapter 2
Server Installation
2-1 Overview
This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your SuperServer 6113L-8/
6113L-i 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 6113L-8/6113L-i system has come to you
with the processors and memory preinstalled. If your system is not already fully
integrated with a serverboard, processors, system memory etc., please turn to
the chapter or section noted in each step for details on installing specific com-
ponents.
2-2 Unpacking the SuperServer 6113L-8/6113L-i
You should inspect the box the SuperServer 6113L-8/6113L-i 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
6113L-8/6113L-i. 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. Be
sure to read the Rack and Server Precautions in the next section.
2-3 Preparing for Setup
The box the SuperServer 6113L-8/6113L-i was shipped in should include two sets
of rail assemblies, six (four front and two rear) rail mounting brackets and 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 out-
lined in the sections that follow.
