Chapter 4. Customer replacement units This chapter provides basic instructions for installing hardware options in the server. These instructions are intended for users who are experienced with setting up IBM server hardware. Installation guidelines Before you begin installing options, read the following information: v Read Appendix B, "Safety information," on page 143, and the guidelines in "Handling static-sensitive devices" on page 26. This information will help you work safely with the server and options. v Make sure that you have an adequate number of properly grounded electrical outlets for the server, monitor, and other devices. v Back up all important data before you make changes to disk drives. v Have a small flat-blade screwdriver available. v You do not have to turn off the server to install or replace hot-swap drives or hot-plug Universal Serial Bus (USB) devices. v Blue on a component indicates touch points, where you can grip the component to remove it from or install it in the server, open or close a latch, and so on. v Orange on a component or orange label on or near a component indicates that the component can be hot-swapped, which means that if the server and operating system support hot-swap capability, you can remove or install the component while the server is running. (Orange can also indicate touch points on hot-swap components.) See the instructions for removing and installing a specific hot-swap component for any additional procedures that you might have to perform before you remove or install the component. v When you need to access the inside of the server to install options, you might find it easier to lay the server on its side. v For a list of supported options for the server, go to http://www.ibm.com/pc/ compat/. System reliability guidelines To help ensure proper cooling and system reliability, make sure that: v Each of the drive bays has a drive or a filler panel and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) shield installed. v There is adequate space around the server to allow the server cooling system to work properly. Leave approximately 50 mm (2 in.) of open space around the front and rear of the server. Do not place objects in front of the fans. For proper cooling and airflow, replace the server cover before turning on the server. Operating the server for extended periods of time (more than 30 minutes) with the server cover removed might damage server components. v You have followed the cabling instructions that come with optional adapters. v You have replaced a failed fan as soon as possible. v You have replaced a hot-swap drive within 2 minutes of its removal. v You do not remove the air baffle when the server has power or is running. Operating the server without the air baffle might cause the microprocessor to overheat. v Microprocessor socket 2 always contains either a microprocessor baffle or a microprocessor and heat sink. © Copyright IBM Corp. 2004 25

Customer
replacement
units
This
chapter
provides
basic
instructions
for
installing
hardware
options
in
the
server.
These
instructions
are
intended
for
users
who
are
experienced
with
setting
up
IBM
server
hardware.
Installation
guidelines
Before
you
begin
installing
options,
read
the
following
information:
v
Read
Appendix
B,
“Safety
information,”
on
page
143,
and
the
guidelines
in
“Handling
static-sensitive
devices”
on
page
26.
This
information
will
help
you
work
safely
with
the
server
and
options.
v
Make
sure
that
you
have
an
adequate
number
of
properly
grounded
electrical
outlets
for
the
server,
monitor,
and
other
devices.
v
Back
up
all
important
data
before
you
make
changes
to
disk
drives.
v
Have
a
small
flat-blade
screwdriver
available.
v
You
do
not
have
to
turn
off
the
server
to
install
or
replace
hot-swap
drives
or
hot-plug
Universal
Serial
Bus
(USB)
devices.
v
Blue
on
a
component
indicates
touch
points,
where
you
can
grip
the
component
to
remove
it
from
or
install
it
in
the
server,
open
or
close
a
latch,
and
so
on.
v
Orange
on
a
component
or
orange
label
on
or
near
a
component
indicates
that
the
component
can
be
hot-swapped,
which
means
that
if
the
server
and
operating
system
support
hot-swap
capability,
you
can
remove
or
install
the
component
while
the
server
is
running.
(Orange
can
also
indicate
touch
points
on
hot-swap
components.)
See
the
instructions
for
removing
and
installing
a
specific
hot-swap
component
for
any
additional
procedures
that
you
might
have
to
perform
before
you
remove
or
install
the
component.
v
When
you
need
to
access
the
inside
of
the
server
to
install
options,
you
might
find
it
easier
to
lay
the
server
on
its
side.
v
For
a
list
of
supported
options
for
the
server,
go
to
compat/.
System
reliability
guidelines
To
help
ensure
proper
cooling
and
system
reliability,
make
sure
that:
v
Each
of
the
drive
bays
has
a
drive
or
a
filler
panel
and
electromagnetic
compatibility
(EMC)
shield
installed.
v
There
is
adequate
space
around
the
server
to
allow
the
server
cooling
system
to
work
properly.
Leave
approximately
50
mm
(2
in.)
of
open
space
around
the
front
and
rear
of
the
server.
Do
not
place
objects
in
front
of
the
fans.
For
proper
cooling
and
airflow,
replace
the
server
cover
before
turning
on
the
server.
Operating
the
server
for
extended
periods
of
time
(more
than
30
minutes)
with
the
server
cover
removed
might
damage
server
components.
v
You
have
followed
the
cabling
instructions
that
come
with
optional
adapters.
v
You
have
replaced
a
failed
fan
as
soon
as
possible.
v
You
have
replaced
a
hot-swap
drive
within
2
minutes
of
its
removal.
v
You
do
not
remove
the
air
baffle
when
the
server
has
power
or
is
running.
Operating
the
server
without
the
air
baffle
might
cause
the
microprocessor
to
overheat.
v
Microprocessor
socket
2
always
contains
either
a
microprocessor
baffle
or
a
microprocessor
and
heat
sink.
