8. Make sure that the power-on LED on the blade workstation control panel is lit continuously, indicating that the blade workstation is receiving power and is turned on. 9. (Optional) Write identifying information on one of the user labels that come with the blade workstations and place the label on a BladeCenter unit bezel. See the illustrations in the documentation that comes with the BladeCenter unit for information about the label placement. Important: Do not place the label on the blade workstation or in any way block the ventilation holes on the blade workstation. 10. (Optional) If you use bar codes to track your blade devices, place the bar code label in the label area on the blade workstation release lever. See the illustrations on page 3 for information about the label placement. Important: Do not place the label anywhere else on the blade workstation or in any way block the ventilation holes on the blade workstation. 11. If you have other blade devices to install, do so now. Note: Reinstall the bezel assembly on the BladeCenter T unit after you have finished installing the blade workstations (see the BladeCenter T Types 8720 and 8730 Installation and User's Guide for detailed instructions for reinstalling the bezel assembly). However, if you installed an optional device on another blade device in the BladeCenter unit, such as a PCI expansion card with PCI adapters that require cables, you will not be able to install the bezel assembly, which contains an air filter for a BladeCenter T unit. If you require an air filter, a filter must then be provided on the rack. If you reinstall a blade device that you removed, you must install it in the same blade bay from which you removed it. Some blade device configuration information and update options are established according to bay number. Reinstalling a blade device into a different blade bay from the one from which it was removed might have unintended consequences, and you might have to reconfigure the blade device. If this is the initial installation of the blade workstation in the BladeCenter unit, you must configure the blade workstation through the Configuration/Setup Utility program. If an operating system is not preinstalled in the blade workstation, you must install the blade workstation operating system. See "Updating the blade workstation configuration" and Chapter 6, "Installing the operating system," on page 43 for details. Updating the blade workstation configuration When the blade workstation starts for the first time after you add or remove an internal optional device or an external SATA device, you might receive a message that the configuration has changed. The Configuration/Setup Utility program automatically starts so that you can save the new configuration settings. See "Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program" on page 31 for more information. Some optional devices have device drivers that you must install. For information about installing device drivers, see the documentation that comes with each device. The blade workstation comes with one microprocessor. Because the microprocessor is dual-core, the blade workstation can operate as a symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) computer. You might have to upgrade the operating system to support SMP, Chapter 3. Installing optional devices 25
