Server Installation
2-1 Overview
If your system is not already fully integrated with processors and system memory
refer to later chapters for details on installing specic components.
2-2 Unpacking the System
You should inspect the box in which the system was shipped and note if it was
damaged in any way. If the server itself shows damage you should le a damage
claim with the carrier who delivered it.
Decide on a suitable location for the server. It should be situated in a clean,
dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas where heat, electrical noise and
electromagnetic elds are generated. You will also need it placed near a grounded
power outlet.
2-3 Warnings and Precautions
•This product is not suitable for use with visual display work place devices
acccording to §2 of the the German Ordinance for Work with Visual Display Units.
•Review the electrical and general safety precautions in Chapter 4.
•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.

3-1 Control Panel Buttons
The SC101i chassis includes one power on/off push-button on the front of the
chassis.
Power
The main power button is used to apply or remove power from the power supply
to the server system. Turning off system power with this button removes the main
power but keeps standby power supplied to the system. Therefore, you must unplug
the system before servicing.
This button features an LED that indicates hard drive activity as follows:
•Blue – Power on
•White – HDD activity
