Chapter 1: Introduction
1-5 2U Twin2: System Notes
As a 2U Twin2 conguration, the SuperServer 6027PR-HT(R/TR/FR) is a unique
server system. With four system boards incorporated into a single chassis acting as
four separate nodes, there are several points you should keep in mind.
Nodes
Each of the four serverboards act as a separate node in the system. As independent
nodes, each may be powered off and on without affecting the others. In addition,
each node is a hot-swappable unit that may be removed from the rear of the chassis.
The nodes are connected to the server backplane by means of an adapter card.
Note: A guide pin is located between the upper and lower nodes on the inner chassis
wall. This guide pin also acts as a “stop” when a node is fully installed. If too much
force is used when inserting a node this pin may break off. Take care to slowly slide
a node in until you hear the “click” of the locking tab seating itself.
System Power
Dual 2000 W power supplies are used to provide the power for all four serverboards.
Each serverboard however, can be shut down independently of the other with the
power button on its own control panel.
SAS/SATA Backplane and Drives
As a system, the server supports the use of twelve SATA drives. A single SATA
backplane works to apply system-based control for power and fan speed functions,
yet at the same time logically connects a set of three SATA drives to each
serverboard. Consequently, RAID setup is limited to a three-drive scheme—RAID
cannot be spread across all twelve drives. See the Drive Bay Installation/Removal
section in Chapter 6 for the logical hard drive and node conguration.

Chapter 2
Rack Installation
This chapter provides instructions for preparing and mounting your chassis in a rack.
2-1 Unpacking the System
You should inspect the box the chassis was shipped in and note if it was damaged
in any way. If the chassis itself shows damage, le a damage claim with the carrier
who delivered it.
2-2 Preparing for Setup
Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold your chassis. It should
be a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas where heat, electrical
noise and electromagnetic elds are generated. A nearby grounded power outlet.
is required
The box your chassis was shipped in should include two sets of rail assemblies, two
rail mounting brackets and the mounting screws to mount the system into the rack.
Please read this chapter in its entirety before beginning the installation procedure.
Choosing a Setup Location
•Leave at least 25 inches clearance in front of the rack to open the front door
completely.
•Leave approximately 30 inches of clearance in the back of the rack to allow
for sufcient airow and access for servicing.
•It should be a restricted access location, such as a dedicated equipment room
or a service closet.

SuperServer 6027PR-HC0(R/TR/FR) User's Manual
2-2
2-3 Warnings and Precautions
Rack Precautions
•Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully extended to
the oor with the full weight of the rack resting on them.
•In single rack installations, stabilizers should be attached to the rack.
•In multiple rack installations, the racks should be coupled together.
•Always make sure that the rack is stable before extending a component from
the rack.
•Only one chassis should be extended from the rack at a time. Extending two
or more chassis simultaneously may cause the rack to become unstable.
General Server Precautions
•Review the electrical and general safety precautions that came with the com-
ponents you are adding to your chassis.
•Determine the placement of each component in the rack before you install the
rails.
•Install the heaviest server components on the bottom of the rack rst, and
then work upward.
•Use a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect the server from
power surges, voltage spikes and to keep your system operating in case of a
power failure.
•Allow the hot-swappable hard drives and power supply modules to cool be-
fore touching them.
•Always keep the rack's front door and all panels and components on the serv-
ers closed when not servicing to maintain proper cooling.

2-3
<Chapter 2: Rack Intallation>
Rack Mounting Considerations
Ambient Operating Temperature
If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the ambient operating tempera-
ture of the rack environment may be greater than the ambient temperature of the
room. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an
environment compatible with the manufacturer’s maximum rated ambient tempera-
ture (TMRA).
Sufcient Airow
Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that the amount of airow required
for safe operation is not compromised.
Circuit Overloading
Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the power
supply circuitry and the effect that any possible overloading of circuits might have
on overcurrent protection and power supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of
equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
Reliable Ground
A reliable ground must be maintained at all times. To ensure this, the rack itself
should be grounded. Particular attention should be given to power supply connec-
tions other than the direct connections to the branch circuit (i.e. the use of power
strips, etc.).
Warning: To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a
rack, you must take special precautions to ensure that the system remains
stable. The following guidelines are provided to ensure your safety:
•This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in
the rack.
•When mounting this unit in a partially lled rack, load the rack from the bottom
to the top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.
•If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before
mounting or servicing the unit in the rack.

2-4 Installing the System into a Rack
This section provides information on installing the chassis into a rack unit with the
rails provided. There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may mean
that the assembly procedure will differ slightly from the instructions provided. You
should also refer to the installation instructions that came with the rack unit you are
using. Note: This rail will t a rack between 26.5" and 36.4" deep.
Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails
The chassis package includes two rail assemblies. Each assembly consists of three
sections: An inner rail that secures directly to the chassis, an outer rail that secures
to the rack, and a middle rail which extends from the outer rail. These assemblies
are specically designed for the left and right side of the chassis.
