Server power features

When the server is connected to an ac power source but is not turned on, the operating system does not run, and all core logic except for the BMC is shut down; however, the server can respond to requests from the BMC, such as a remote request to turn on the server. The power-on LED flashes to indicate that the server is connected to ac power but not turned on. Turning on the server: When you connect the server to an ac power source, the power supply fans turn on immediately; then, approximately 20 seconds later, the power-control button becomes active and you can turn on the server and start the operating system by pressing the power-control button. The server can also be turned on in any of the following ways: If a power failure occurs while the server is turned on, the server will restart automatically when power is restored. If the operating system supports the system-management software for an optional Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine option, the systemmanagement software can turn on the server. If the operating system supports the Wake on LAN feature, the Wake on LAN feature can turn on the server. Turning off the server: When you turn off the server and leave it connected to ac power, the power supply fans continue to run and the server can respond to requests from the BMC, such as a remote request to turn on the server. To remove all power from the server, you must disconnect it from the power source. The MasterCard Solaris operating system requires an orderly shutdown before you turn off the server (see the Solaris-10 shutdown information) for proper shutdown procedures. The server can be turned off in any of the following ways: You can turn off the server after an orderly shutdown of the operating system.

The MIP will be mounted into either a pre-existing cabinet provided by the MasterCard Member or into a MasterCard MIP designed cabinet. The x336 MIP is fully assembled at the MasterCard Staging Facility prior to shipment. During the staging process the system is configured, fully tested, and the MasterCard SUN Solaris10 Operating System is pre-loaded on the hard drives. Do not reload the SUN Solaris-10 operating system as part of the site installation process! 1. Carefully un-box all equipment. Be cautious not to discard any mounting hardware and other miscellaneous items. Verify equipment received and report any discrepancies to the Orange Business Services Service Account Manager. 2. Attach the rack mount rail assemblies into the cabinet if required. Depending on the rails received, some adjustment may be required to properly secure the rails into the cabinet, (see the Installing the x336 server into a cabinet information. The physical location of the equipment in a member cabinet will be at the discretion of the MasterCard TAP. Problems associated in mounting the hardware into a member cabinet must be directed to MasterCard OCC. An example illustration is provided at the end of this document, (see the MasterCard MIP Cabinet information). 3. When the rack mount rails have been installed, secure the system to the rail assembly. You may have to manually engage the locking mechanism on each side of the server chassis to secure the server to the rail assembly. 4. Install the monitor and keyboard. (If applicable).

5. Install the Apex Outlook switch or Avocent switch when multiple systems are being installed. (If applicable) 6. Connect all equipment power cords to the cabinet power strips. Allow enough slack for the system to be freely racked out the cabinet for service. 7. Connect miscellaneous cables: Connect the keyboard/mouse cable, and the monitor cable into the designated connectors on rear of the MIP. If using the Apex or Avocent switch: Direct connect the keyboard/mouse cable, and the monitor cable into the master port on the switch. Connect the specific switch KB/M cables from the designated switch ports and to the designated MIP. Connect the network cables to the MIP. The MasterCard network cable connects to the x336 onboard ethernet port-1. The Members network cable connects to the x336 onboard ethernet port-2. See figure below. If the Giraffe Transceiver is used, connect the transceiver as follows; see the (Giraffe Transceiver) information section for additional details. When the Giraffe is used for the MasterCard network: Configure switch-4 on the Giraffe front switch pack for the specified duplex mode. Connect x336 onboard ethernet port-1 to Giraffe input port -1. Connect the Giraffe Port-A and Port-B to the designated switch port. When the Giraffe is used for the Member network: Configure switch-4 on the Giraffe front switch pack for the specified duplex mode. Connect x336 onboard ethernet port-2 to Giraffe input port -1. Connect the Giraffe Port-A and Port-B to the designated switch port.
8. Verify the following media is present with the MIP. This media should be placed in the cabinet with the MIP for future use. SUN Solaris-10 Load CD x336 MIP Service Manual 9. Power on the external components. Configure the parameters for the Apex or Avocent switch. See the (Apex or Avocent Switch) information sections for additional details. 10. Power on the system. Press <F2> during the startup to load the diagnostics. Continue to the certification procedure outlined in the (x336 MIP Certification information).

x336 MIP certification

Certifying the MIP system to be operational is a requirement after the installation at the MasterCard site. Follow this procedure to certify the MIP system. 1. Access and load the x336 diagnostic programs: Press the <F2> key when prompted during the system startup (POST). Note: x336 diagnostics are resident in ROM on the system board. 2. At the main diagnostic menu: Select Basic from the top menu bar, then select System Load, then select and run the 5 minutes option, (see Starting the diagnostics program information). 3. After the tests have successfully completed, exit the diagnostics program and reboot the system. Allow the MasterCard SUN Solaris-10 operating system to load. 4. When the Solaris OS is loaded, follow the procedure to input the TCP/IP addressing information for the MIP (see the TCP/IP Setup and Configuration information). TCP/IP information MUST be provided by the OCC. 5. After loading the TCP/IP information the OCC will access the system via the network and perform system verification and operational testing. Note: If the OCC experience problems communicating with the MIP, verify the following: Correct TCP/IP information was input. (Login to access the TCP/IP Setup and Configuration menu. Choose the VIEW option to verify setting information.) Network cables are connected to the designated devices and ports. (MasterCard network cable connects from the designated switch port to the x336 ethernet port 1.) If a Giraffe transceiver is used: a. Verify Giraffe is powered on. b. Check crossover switches on the Giraffe ports. c. Verify x336 ethernet port-1 is connected to the Giraffe port-1. d. Verify Giraffe port-A and port-B are connected to the designated switch ports. LINK status is indicated on the active port. e. Check the Giraffe duplex mode switch setting. This switch must correspond to the duplex mode specified in the TCP/IP information. 6. The field engineer will be release from the site when the OCC have completed their testing. The field engineer must notify the Orange Business Services GTS to provide the appropriate closing information when released by the OCC.

Installing the x336 server into a cabinet

MasterCard uses two types of rail mount assemblies to rack the x336 system into a cabinet depending on the type of cabinet. x366 systems mounted into the MasterCard style cabinets require a modified rail assembly. x366 systems mounted into a non-MasterCard style cabinet use the original x336 design rail mount assembly (unmodified). The illustrations provide information to mount the x336 system with both types of rail mount assemblies.
X336 rail assembly (modified):

Consist of two assemblies, a left rail assembly and a right assembly. Flange on the front of each rail mount assembly is stationary and not adjustable. Flange at the rear of each rail mount assembly is fully adjustable to meet the requirements of the MasterCard style cabinets The front and rear rail mount flanges attached to the cabinet mounting flange with 10-32 threaded mounting screws. The mounting flanges in the MasterCard cabinets are pre-drilled and tapped to accept a 10-32 threaded screw. Each of rail mount flanges has three holes. Only the top and bottom holes are used to mount the rail assembly to the cabinet with 10-32 screws. Do not use the middle hole in the rail flange. See the figure below.
Mounting the modified rail assembly in a MasterCard cabinet:

1. Attach left rail assembly to the desired location in the cabinet; see the (Example cabinet layout) information. Be sure the rail is mounted level. 2. Attach the right rail assembly. Be sure both rail assemblies are attached at the same location on each side of the cabinet. 3. Align the server on the rails and push server into the cabinet. Note: If the rail-lock pins are extended out from the side of the server, pull the release latches (on both side of the server) toward you to retract the rail-lock pins into the server chassis. See the illustration on the following page. IMPORTANT: Be extremely cautious when removing the server from the rail assembly. If the rail-lock pins are not fully engaged to the rail assembly the server could prematurely tip downward and off the rail assembly when being racked out on the rail assembly!
Modified rails:

Diagnostic tools overview

The following tools are available to help you identify and resolve hardware-related problems: POST beep codes, error messages, and error logs The power-on self-test (POST) generates beep codes and messages to indicate successful test completion or the detection of a problem, (see the POST error logs information). The POST error log contains the three most recent error codes and messages that the system has generated during POST. The system-error log contains all the error messages that were issued during POST. Note: The system-error log on the xSeries 336 server is available only with the Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine installed. Diagnostic programs and error messages The server diagnostic programs, stored in upgradeable read-only memory (ROM) on the system board, are the primary method of testing the major components of the server; (see the Diagnostic programs, error codes, and messages information). Light path diagnostics The server has light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to help you identify problems with server components. By following the light path, you can identify the type of problem that occurred. The light path begins with the LEDs on the operator information panel; (see the Light path diagnostics information). Error symptom tables These tables list problem symptoms, along with suggested steps to correct the problems (see the Error symptoms information).
POST error logs

When you turn on the server, it performs a series of tests to check the operation of server components and some of the options installed in the server. This series of tests is called the power-on self-test, or POST. If POST finishes without detecting any problems, a single beep sounds, and the first screen of the operating system or application program appears. If POST detects a problem, more than one beep sounds, an error message appears on the screen, or both. (See the Beep symptoms and POST error codes information).
Note: A single problem might cause several error messages. When this occurs, work to correct the cause of the first error message. After you correct the cause of the first error message, the other error messages usually will not occur the next time you run the test. The POST error log contains the three most recent error codes and messages that the system generated during POST. The system-error log or the BMC log contains all messages that were issued during POST and all system status messages from the service processor. Note: The system-error log on the xSeries 336 server is available only with the Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine installed. You can view the contents of the system-error log and the BMC log from the Configuration/Setup Utility program. You can also view the system-error log from the diagnostic programs. 26
Viewing error and event logs (Configuration/Setup Utility program)

The POST error log and the BMC log are viewed from the Configuration/Setup Utility program. To view the POST error log, start the Configuration/Setup Utility and then select Event/Error Logs from the main menu. Select POST Errors to view the log. To view the BMC log, access the Configuration/Setup Utility program. From the main menu select Advanced Settings, then select Baseboard Management Controller (BMC), then select BMC System Event Log. Note: The system-error log on the xSeries 336 server is available only with the Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine adapter installed.
Viewing the system-error log from diagnostic programs

To view system-error log from the diagnostic programs, complete the following steps: 1. Start the diagnostic programs 2. Select Hardware Info from the top of the diagnostic programs screen. 3. Select System Error Log. Then, follow the instructions on the screen. Note: The system-error log on the xSeries 336 server is available only with the Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine installed.
Diagnostic programs, error codes, and messages

The server diagnostic programs are stored in upgradeable read-only memory (ROM) on the system board. These programs are the primary method of testing the major components of the server. Diagnostic error messages indicate that a problem exists. They are not intended to be used to identify a failing part. Sometimes the first error to occur causes additional errors. In this case, the server displays more than one error message. Always follow the suggested action instructions for the first error message that appears. Error codes that might be displayed are listed at (Diagnostic error codes information). Notes: 1. Depending on the server configuration, some of the error codes might not appear when you run the diagnostic programs. 2. If diagnostic error codes appear that are not listed in the tables, make sure that the server has the latest levels of BIOS, Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine, and ServeRAID code installed.
27
Diagnostic text message format

The diagnostic text message format is as follows: result test_specific_string Where: result is one of the following: Passed This test was completed without any errors. Failed This test discovered an error. User aborted You stopped the test before it was completed. Not Applicable You attempted to test a device that is not present in the server. Aborted The test could not proceed because of the server configuration. Warning A hardware failure did not occur; the test could not be run because of some other problem (For example, there might be a configuration problem, the hardware is missing or is not being recognized, or there is a hardware problem that is not related to the hardware currently being tested).
Where: test_specific_string Is an error code or other information about the error.
Starting the diagnostic programs

To start the diagnostic program, perform the following: 1 Restart the system. (Power on, power off/on, or press <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<Delete>) Important: The Solaris-10 Operating System must be shutdown. 2 Watch for the IBM logo to display along with the prompt F2 for Diagnostics then press the <F2> key. The message Booting To Diagnostics will display as the system continues with the POST sequence and then loads the diagnostic program.
Running diagnostic programs

Select either the Extended or Basic menu from the top menu bar to access the list of test options. Select the test you want to run from the list that appears; then, follow the instructions on the screen. Running diagnostics from the Extended menu: Run Normal Test or Run Quick Test option runs a predefined set of tests. To run individual test: Select any category from the list of test categories.

When the tests have completed, the complete test log can be viewed from the present test screen by pressing the <F3> key. You can also view the complete test log by selecting the Utility option from the top menu bar on the screen. Then select View Test Log. The test-log data is maintained only while the diagnostic programs are active. When you exit from the diagnostic programs, the test log is cleared (saved test logs are not affected). Notes: a. You can press F1 while running the diagnostic programs to obtain help information. You also can press F1 from within a help screen to obtain online documentation from which you can select different categories. To exit from the help information and return to where you left off, press Esc. b. If the server stops during testing and you cannot continue, restart the server and try running the diagnostic programs again. If the problem remains, replace the component that was being tested when the server stopped. c. The keyboard and mouse (pointing device) tests assume that a keyboard and mouse are attached to the server. d. If you run the diagnostic programs with no mouse you will not be able to navigate between test categories using the Next Cat and Prev Cat buttons. All other functions provided by mouse-selectable buttons are also available using the function keys. e. You can run the USB interface test only if there are no USB devices attached. f. You can view server configuration information such as system configuration, memory contents, (IRQ) use, direct memory access (DMA) use, and device drivers by selecting Hardware Info from the top of the screen. If the diagnostic programs do not detect any hardware errors but the problem persists during normal server operations, a software error might be the cause. If you suspect software problems contact the GTS Level II support. 29
Light path diagnostics

The servers light path diagnostics feature provides a path that can be followed in three phases to help identify the source of an error. The lights are designed to be followed in an orderly progression, depending on the error. The LEDs are viewed in the following order: 1. Begin on the front panel. 2. Proceed to the light path diagnostics panel. 3. Check the system service label. 4. Look inside the server, if necessary.
Many errors are first indicated by the illumination of the system-error light in the operator information panel on the front of the server (see the Server controls and LEDs information). If the system-error light is lit, one or more lights inside the server might also be lit that can direct you to the source of the error. Complete the following steps to view the LEDs.
1. Check the system-error LED on the operator information panel on the front of the server. A lit system-error LED indicates that a problem exists. 2. Check the light path diagnostics panel. Press the release latch on the operator information panel; then slide out the light path diagnostics panel to view the lit LEDs. These LEDs indicate the type of error that has occurred and are described in more detail in the (Light path diagnostics errors information).
(CONTINUED)
30
3. Once you know the general type of error and the general location of the component involved, the next step is to check the system service label on the outside top front of the server. This label provides an overview of internal components that correspond to several LEDs on the light path diagnostics panel and can help to view lit LEDs inside the server. Note: Some of the LEDs on the light path diagnostics panel will not have a corresponding LED lit on the system board. For example: LEDs for the power supplies and hard disk drives are located on or near the individual power supply or hard disk drive. Some error conditions are corrected by taking an action not related to one particular component; see step 5. 4. If the lit LED on the light path diagnostics panel refers to a specific internal component as indicated in step 3, look inside the server to check the lit LEDs on the system board. For example, a microprocessor error will light the LED next to the failing microprocessor. To view LEDs inside the server without turning off the server, remove the cover and look for any lit error LEDs. To view LEDs inside the server without ac power to the server, complete the following steps. Note: After ac power has been removed from the server, power remains available to the LEDs for up to 12 hours, after which time you must turn on the server to supply power to the LEDs. a. Turn off the server and all attached peripheral devices. b. Disconnect all power cords and external cables from the back of the server. c. Remove the server cover (see the Removing the cover information). d. Press and hold the blue light path diagnostic button to illuminate the system board LEDs (see the following figure).
(CONTINUED)
31
Important: You can press this button for no longer than two minutes to light the LEDs. After this time, the power to the LEDs is exhausted. If no LEDs are lit when you press the light path diagnostic button, check the light path activity LED. If the light path activity LED lights while you are pressing the light path diagnostic button, this indicates that the light path is working properly and that there are no LEDs lit with this particular error. If the lit LED on the light path diagnostics panel does not refer to a specific internal component, continue with step 5.
5. Go to the table at the (Light path diagnostics errors information) to find the entry for the associated lit LED. Replace the indicated component or take the indicated action. Notes: The system-error log and the BMC log might contain additional information that will be helpful before replacing a component. Note: The system error log on the xSeries 336 server is available only with the Remote Supervisor Adapter II Slimline installed. If an LED on the light path diagnostics panel is lit and the system-error LED is not lit, there is probably an LED problem. Run LED diagnostics.
Remind button
When an error occurs that you are not able to correct immediately, use the remind button feature to acknowledge the error and remain informed of any additional errors that occur. The remind button is located on the light path diagnostics panel. To activate this feature, press the remind button; this places the system-error LED on the operator information panel in remind mode. When placed in remind mode, the system-error LED will flash rapidly until one of the following occurs: When the problem is corrected, the system-error LED will no longer be lit. If an additional problem occurs, the system-error LED will again be lit continuously. If the server is restarted and the problem is not yet corrected, the system-error LED will again be lit continuously.
32
Reset button
Press the reset button to reset the server and run the power-on self-test (POST). The reset button is on the top of the operator panel, to the right of the remind button. The reset button is recessed, and you might have to use a pen or the end of a straightened paper clip to press the button.
System Error messages and error codes

The following charts list the error symptoms, descriptions, possible causes and corrective actions. The most likely cause is listed first. Use these charts to assist in determining the type of error and the possible failing component to replace.
Beep symptoms

Problem determination tips

Because of the variety of hardware and software combinations that can be encountered, use the following information to assist you in problem determination. If possible, have this information available when requesting assistance from Service Support. Machine type and model Microprocessor or hard disk upgrades Failure symptom Do diagnostics fail? What message appears in the diagnostics log? What, when, where, single, or multiple systems? Is the failure repeatable? Has this configuration ever worked? If it has been working, what changes were made prior to it failing? Is this the original reported failure? Diagnostics version Type and version level Hardware configuration Print (print screen) configuration currently in use BIOS level Operating system software Type and version level Note: To eliminate confusion, identical systems are considered identical only if they: Are the exact machine type and models Have the same BIOS level Have the same adapters/attachments in the same locations Have the same address jumpers/terminators/cabling Have the same software versions and levels Have the same diagnostics code (version) Have the same configuration options set in the system Have the same setup for the operation system control files Comparing the configuration and software set-up between working and nonworking systems will often lead to problem resolution.
59
Clearing CMOS memory)

This section applies to a lost or forgotten power-on password and clears CMOS. Attention: If an administrator password is lost or forgotten, there is no way to change, override, or remove it. You must replace the system board. To set the power-on password reset jumper and erase a forgotten password, complete the following steps: 1. Turn off the server and all attached devices. 2. Disconnect the power cord, and disconnect all external cables. 3. Remove the cover (see Removing the cover information). 4. Locate the password-reset jumper (J22) on the system board, removing any components that impede access to the jumper.
5. Remove the password-reset jumper from pins 1 and 2. Place the jumper on pins 2 and 3. 6. Replace any components that were removed. 7. Replace the cover. You will be able to start the server one time, without having to use the power-on password, and start the Configuration/Setup Utility program. You can either delete the old password or set a new power-on password. If you do not change or delete the password, the next time you start the server the original poweron password will be reinstated. 8. Connect the server to a power source, keyboard, monitor, and mouse. 9. Turn on the server. The Configuration/Setup Utility program starts. 10. Follow the instructions to erase the existing password or create a new password. 11. Select Save Settings and press Enter. When the password reset is completed, it is not necessary to return the jumper to pins 1 and 2.
Ethernet connectors
The server has three Ethernet connectors (see the locations in the Input/output connectors information). Two of the Ethernet connectors are attached to the onboard Ethernet controllers and both are clearly labeled next to each of the connector as 1 and 2. Ethernet connector1 is used as the MasterCard network connection. Ethernet connector2 is used for the MasterCard Member network connection. The third Ethernet connector is a dedicated connector that is active only when you install an optional Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine. This dedicated connector is the Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine Ethernet connector. 60
Troubleshooting the Ethernet controller

This section provides troubleshooting information for problems that might occur with the 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet controller.
Network connection problems

If the Ethernet controller cannot connect to the network, check the following conditions: Make sure that the cable is installed correctly. The network cable must be securely attached at all connections. If the cable is attached but the problem remains, try a different cable. If you set the Ethernet controller to operate at either 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps, you must use Category 5 or higher cabling. Determine whether the hub supports auto-negotiation. If it does not, try configuring the integrated Ethernet controller manually to match the speed and duplex mode of the hub. Check the Ethernet controller LEDs on the rear of the server. These LEDs indicate whether there is a problem with the connector, cable, or hub: The Ethernet transmit/receive activity LED, on the rear of the server, is lit when the Ethernet controller sends or receives data over the Ethernet Network. If the Ethernet transmit/receive activity LED is off, make sure that the hub and network are operating and that the correct device drivers are installed. The Ethernet link status LED, on the rear of the server, is lit when the Ethernet controller receives a LINK pulse from the hub. If the LED is off, there might be a defective connector or cable or a problem with the hub. Make sure that you are using the correct device drivers, which are supplied with the server. Check for operating-system-specific causes for the problem. Make sure that the device drivers on the client and server are using the same protocol. Test the Ethernet controller
Ethernet controller troubleshooting chart

Use the following troubleshooting chart to find solutions to 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet controller problems that have definite symptoms. Description The server stops running when loading device drivers. FRU/action The PCI BIOS interrupt settings are incorrect. Determine whether the interrupt (IRQ) setting that is assigned to the Ethernet controller is also assigned to another device in the Configuration/Setup Utility program. Although interrupt sharing is allowed for PCI devices, some devices do not function well when they share an interrupt with a dissimilar PCI device. Try changing the IRQ assigned to the Ethernet controller or the other device. For example, for NetWare Versions 3 and 4, it is recommended that disk controllers not share interrupts with LAN controllers. Make sure that you are using the most recent device driver that is available from the World Wide Web. Reseat or replace the adapter.
61
The Ethernet link status LED does not work.
Make sure that the hub is turned on. Check all connections at the Ethernet controller and the hub. Use another port on the hub. If the hub does not support auto-negotiation, manually configure the Ethernet controller to match the hub. If you manually configured the Duplex mode, make sure that you also manually configure the speed. Reseat or replace the adapter. Make sure that you have installed the network device drivers. The network might be idle. Try sending data from this server. Make sure that you are using Category 5 or higher cabling when operating the server at 100 Mbps or at 1000 Mbps. Make sure that the cables do not run close to noise-inducing sources like fluorescent lights. Make sure that the cable is connected to the Ethernet controller. Make sure that the PCI system BIOS code is current. Reseat the adapter. Determine whether the interrupt (IRQ) setting that is assigned to the Ethernet adapter is also assigned to another device in the system. Use the Configuration/Setup Utility program to determine whether this is the case. Although interrupt sharing is allowed for PCI devices, some devices do not function well when they share an interrupt with a dissimilar PCI device. Try changing the IRQ that is assigned to the Ethernet adapter or the other device. Reseat or replace the adapter. Try a different connector on the hub. Reinstall the device drivers. See the operating-system documentation and the ServerGuide information. Reseat or replace the adapter.
The Ethernet transmit/receive activity LED does not work.
Data is incorrect or sporadic.
The Ethernet controller stopped working when another adapter was added to the server.
The Ethernet controller stopped working without apparent cause.

Working with adapters

This section describes how to install an adapter in the server. Before you continue with the adapter-installation procedures, review Adapter considerations.
Adapter considerations
The following information describes the types of adapters the server supports and other information you must consider when installing an adapter. There are several different types of adapters you can install depending on which slots are available. The following information identifies what type adapters you can connect to PCI slots 1 and 2, and where these slots are located on the system board. Slot 1: You can install only a PCI-X low-profile adapter into slot 1. Slot 2: You can install any PCI-X or PCI Express adapter into slot 2. Note: For the PCI Express adapter, you must install an optional riser card on the system board. Figure below shows the location of, and access to, the riser card retention latches for the slot 1 and 2 riser cards.
When the system starts (boots), it starts the system devices in the following order, if you have not changed the default boot precedence: Integrated Ethernet controllers Integrated SCSI controller PCI-X slot 1 PCI-X or PCI-Express slot 2
Installing an adapter
Complete the following steps to install an adapter: 1. Turn off the server and peripheral devices (see Turning off the server information). Then disconnect all power cords and external cables. 2. Remove the cover (see Removing the cover information).
(CONTINUED)
66
3. Follow the cabling instructions, if any come with the adapter. Route the adapter cables before you install the adapter. 4. Determine which slot you want to use for the adapter, either slot 1 for a low-profile adapter or slot 2 for any type of adapter. 5. Install the adapter: a. To install a low-profile adapter, continue with Installing a low-profile adapter into slot 1. b. To install an adapter in slot 2 go to Installing an adapter into slot 2
Installing a low-profile adapter into slot 1
Complete the following steps to install the low-profile adapter: 1. Remove the expansion slot cover from slot 1. From the rear of the server, push the slot 1 expansion cover to the left and then toward the inside of the server. Remove the slot 1 expansion cover and store it in a safe place. Note: You might have to use a coin or screwdriver to slide the expansion slot cover to the left. 2. Remove the adapter from the static-protective package and set any jumpers or switches on the adapter as directed by the adapter manufacturer. 3. Slide the I/O connector portion of the adapter through the slot 1 opening. Attention: When you install an adapter, make sure that the adapter is correctly seated in the connector before you turn on the server. An improperly seated adapter might cause damage to the system board, the riser card, or the adapter. 4. As you start inserting the adapter through the slot 1 opening, align the edge connector on the low-profile adapter with the connector on the riser card. Press the edge connector firmly into the riser-card connector. Make sure that the adapter snaps into the riser card securely and the adapter is lying on top of the low-profile adapter support.
(CONTINUED)
67
5. Push the adapter down past the tab so that the adapter snaps into place on the support. 6. Check the retention latches on the riser card and make sure that they are still securely in place. 7. Connect any internal cables to the adapter. See the instructions that come with the adapter for details. Attention: Make sure that the cables do not block the flow of air from the fans. See the (System-board cable channels) information for cable routing areas on the system board. 8. Perform any configuration tasks that are required for the adapter.
Installing an adapter into slot 2
Complete the following steps to install an adapter into slot 2: 1 Open the retaining clips on both sides of the slot 2 riser card. Push the clips down, away from the riser card, until the clips are no longer attached to the riser card. Note: Insert your finger into the access hole on the slot 2 adapter cover to open the retention latch at the rear of the server. Figure above shows the location of the access hole on the adapter cover, the riser card and the riser-card retention latches. 2 Lift up and remove the slot 2 adapter cover. The slot 2 riser card is attached to the adapter cover, and you remove the riser card along with the adapter cover. Following figure identifies the components that are referred to in this procedure.
(CONTINUED)
