Connecting the cables Attention: To prevent damage to equipment, connect the power cords last. If the server cables and connector panel have color-coded connections, match the color of the cable end with the color of the connector. For example, match a blue cable end with a blue panel connector, a red cable end with a red connector, and so on. The following illustration shows the input/output (I/O) connectors on the rear of the server. Power cord Power supply error LED AC power LED Mouse Keyboard Serial 1 Parallel Video USB (2) Ethernet Serial 2 Updating the server configuration When you start the server for the first time after you add or remove an internal option or an external device, you might receive a message that the configuration has changed. The Configuration/Setup Utility program starts automatically so that you can save the new configuration settings. For additional information, see "Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program" on page 51. Some options have device drivers that you must install. For information about installing device drivers, see the documentation that comes with each option. If the server has a ServeRAID adapter and you have installed or removed a hard disk drive, see the ServeRAID documentation that comes with the server for information about reconfiguring the disk arrays.

Attention:
To
prevent
damage
to
equipment,
connect

cables
and
connector
panel
have
color-coded
connections,
match
the
color
of
the
cable
end
with
the
color
of
the
connector.
For
example,
match
a
blue
cable
end
with
a
blue
panel
connector,
a
red
cable
end
with
a
red
connector,
and
so
on.

Updating
the
server
configuration
When
you
start
the
server
for
the
first
time
after
you
add
or
remove
an
internal
option
or
an
external
device,
you
might
receive
a
message
that
the
configuration
has
changed.
The
Configuration/Setup
Utility
program
starts
automatically
so
that
you
can
save
the
new
configuration
settings.
For
additional
information,
see
“Using
the
Configuration/Setup
Utility
program”
on
page
51.
Some

device
drivers
that
you
must
install.
For
information
about
installing
device
drivers,
see
the
documentation
that
comes
with
each
option.
If
the
server
has
a
ServeRAID
adapter
and
you
have
installed
or
removed
a
hard
disk
drive,
see
the
ServeRAID
documentation
that
comes
with
the
