Warnings
Heed safety instructions: Before working with your server product, whether you are using this guide or any
other resource as a reference, pay close attention to the safety instructions. You must adhere to the
assembly instructions in this guide to ensure and maintain compliance with existing product certifications
and approvals. Use only the described, regulated components specified in this guide. Use of other
products/components will void the UL listing and other regulatory approvals of the product and will most
likely result in noncompliance with product regulations in the region(s) in which the product is sold.
System power on/off: The power button DOES NOT turn off the system AC power. To remove power from
the system, you must unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet. Make sure the AC power cord is
unplugged before you open the chassis, add, or remove any components.
Hazardous conditions, devices and cables: Hazardous electrical conditions may be present on power,
telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the server and disconnect the power cord,
telecommunications systems, networks, and modems attached to the server before opening it. Otherwise,
personal injury or equipment damage can result.
Installing or removing jumpers: A jumper is a small plastic encased conductor that slips over two jumper
pins. Some jumpers have a small tab on top that you can grip with your fingertips or with a pair of fine needle
nosed pliers. If your jumpers do not have such a tab, take care when using needle nosed pliers to remove or
install a jumper; grip the narrow sides of the jumper with the pliers, never the wide sides. Gripping the wide
sides can damage the contacts inside the jumper, causing intermittent problems with the function controlled
by that jumper. Take care to grip with, but not squeeze, the pliers or other tool you use to remove a jumper,
or you may bend or break the pins on the board.
Slide / Rail mounted equipment is not to be used as a shelf or a work space
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Electrostatic discharge can cause damage to your computer or the components within it. ESD can occur
without the user feeling a shock while working inside the system chassis or while improperly handling
electronic devices like processors, memory or other storage devices, and add-in cards.
Intel recommends the following steps be taken when performing any procedures described within this
document or while performing service to any computer system.
• Where available, all system integration and/or service should be performed at a properly equipped ESD
workstation
• Wear ESD protective gear like a grounded antistatic wrist strap, sole grounders, and/or conductive shoes
• Wear an anti-static smock or gown to cover any clothing that may generate an electrostatic charge
• Remove all jewelry
• Disconnect all power cables and cords attached to the server before performing any integration or
service
• Touch any unpainted metal surface of the chassis before performing any integration or service
• Hold all circuit boards and other electronic components by their edges only
• After removing electronic devices from the system or from their protective packaging, place them
component side up on to a grounded anti-static surface or conductive foam pad. Do not place electronic
devices on to the outside of any protective packaging.

Preface
About this document
This document is written for system integrators and service technicians who are responsible for system
assembly, server upgrades, server repair, and component replacement.
This document is divided into two major sections. The first half of the document provides detailed
instructions on how to assemble a system from the bare chassis to a functional server. It will guide you
through the installation of system components and available accessories. The second half of the document
is focused on system service. It provides many reference diagrams used to identify all key physical features
of the system. It also provides detailed instructions for the replacement of field replaceable components.

Document Organization
System Integration
Chapter 1 –– Server Building Block System Integration – provides grounds up assembly instructions for the
integration of individual server building blocks, starting with a bare chassis option and installing all the
system boards and major server components, including power supply and system fans. This chapter can be
skipped if the server board and other major components are pre-installed in the system.
Chapter 2 – Essential System Component Integration and Service – provides instructions for adding
essential system components required to complete the integration of the server system. This includes
installation of Processors, Memory, Add-in Cards, and storage devices
Chapter 3 – Options and Accessory Kit Integration and Service – provides instructions for adding and
removing various system options and available accessory option kits that maybe installed in the system.
Chapter 4 – System Software Updates and Configuration - provides instructions for completing the
integration of the server system by updating the system software and accessing the BIOS Setup utility to
configure various system settings.
Chapter 5 – System Packaging Assembly – Provides package assembly instructions when re-using the Intel
packaging the system was originally shipped in.
System Service
Chapter 6 - System Features Overview – provides a high level overview of the Intel®Server System
R2000WF product family. In this chapter, you will find a list of the server system features and illustrations
identifying the major system components.
Chapter 7 – FRU Replacement – provides guidance for the replacement of system components considered
as field replaceable units (FRUs).
