Chapter 2
Server Installation
2-1 Overview
This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your SuperServer 1018R-WC0R
up and running. Following these steps in the order given should enable you to have
the system operational within a minimum amount of time. This quick setup assumes
that your system has come to you with the processors and memory preinstalled. If
your system is not already fully integrated with a serverboard, processors, system
memory etc., please turn to the chapter or section noted in each step for details on
installing specic components.
2-2 Unpacking the System
You should inspect the box the SuperServer 1018R-WC0R was shipped in 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 rack unit that will hold the SuperServer 1018R-
WC0R. 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. Read the Rack and Server
Precautions in the next section.
2-3 Preparing for Setup
The box the SuperServer 1018R-WC0R was shipped in should include two sets of
rail assemblies, two rail mounting brackets and the mounting screws you will need to
install the system into the rack. Follow the steps in the order given to complete the
installation process in a minimum amount of time. Please read this section in its en-
tirety before you begin the installation procedure outlined in the sections that follow.
Choosing a Setup Location
• Leave enough clearance in front of the rack to enable you to open the front door
completely (~25 inches) and approximately 30 inches of clearance in the back
of the rack to allow for sufcient airow and ease in servicing.

Chapter 2: Server Installation
2-32-2
SUPERSERVER 1018R-WC0R User's Manual
• This product is for installation only in a Restricted Access Location (dedicated
equipment rooms, service closets and the like).
• This product is not suitable for use with visual display work place devices
acccording to §2 of the German Ordinance for Work with Visual Display Units.
2-4 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 installation, stabilizers should be attached to the rack. In multiple
rack installations, the racks should be coupled together.
• Always make sure the rack is stable before extending a component from the
rack.
• You should extend only one component at a time - extending two or more si-
multaneously may cause the rack to become unstable.
Server Precautions
• Review the electrical and general safety precautions in Chapter 4.
• 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 up.
• 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 any hot plug drives and power supply modules to cool before touching
them.
• Always keep the rack's front door and all panels and components on the servers
closed when not servicing to maintain proper cooling.
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).
Reduced Airow
Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that the amount of airow required
for safe operation is not compromised.
Mechanical Loading
Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that a hazardous condition does not
arise due to uneven mechanical loading.
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.

SUPERSERVER 1018R-WC0R User's Manual
2-5 Rack Mounting Instructions
This section provides information on installing the SC116 chassis into a rack unit with
the rails provided. There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may mean
the assembly procedure will differ slightly. 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" and 33.5" deep.
Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails
The chassis package includes two rack rail assemblies in the rack mounting kit. Each
assembly consists of two sections: an inner xed chassis rail that secures directly to
the server chassis and an outer xed rack rail that secures directly to the rack itself.

(Inner rails are pre-installed
on the chassis)
Inner Rail
Extensions
Figure 2-2. Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails
(right side rail shown)
Inner Rail Extension
The SC116 chassis includes a set of inner rails in two sections: inner rails and inner
rail extensions. The inner rails are pre-attached and do not interfere with normal use
of the chassis if you decide not to use a server rack. Attach the inner rail extension
to stabilize the chassis within the rack.
Installing the Inner Rails
1. Place the inner rail extensions on the side of the chassis aligning the hooks
of the chassis with the rail extension holes. Make sure the extension faces
"outward" just like the pre-attached inner rail.
2. Slide the extension toward the front of the chassis.
3. Secure the chassis with two screws as illustrated.
4. Repeat steps 1-3 for the other inner rail extension.

SUPERSERVER 1018R-WC0R User's Manual
Outer Rails
Installing the Outer Rails to the Rack
1. Attach the shorter outer rail to the outside of the longer outer rail. You must
align the pins with the slides. Both bracket ends must face the same direction.
2. Adjust both the shorter and longer rails to the proper distance so that the rail
ts snugly into the rack.
3. Secure the long bracket to the front side of the outer rail with two M5 screws
and the short bracket to the rear side of the outer rail with three M5 screws.
4. Repeat steps 1-4 for the left outer rail.

Stability hazard. The rack stabilizing mechanism must be in place, or the
rack must be bolted to the oor before you slide the unit out for servicing.
Failure to stabilize the rack can cause the rack to tip over.
Slide rail mounted equipment is not to be used as a shelf or a work space. Note: gures are for illustrative purposes only. Always install servers to the bottom
of a rack rst.

Figure 2-5. Installing the Rack Rails
Installing the Chassis into a Rack
1. Conrm that chassis includes the inner rails and inner rail extensions. Also-
conrm that the outer rails are installed on the rack.
2. Align the chassis inner rails with the front of the out rails on the rack.
3. Slide the chassis rails into the rack rails, keeping the pressure even on both
sides (you may have to depress the locking tabs when inserting). When the
server has been pushed completely into the rack, you should hear the locking
tabs click into position.
4. (Optional) Insert and tighten the thumbscrews that hold the front of the server
to the rack.
Installing the Chassis into a Telco rack
To install the chassis into a Telco or post-style rack, use two L-shaped brackets on
either side of the chassis (four total).
1. First, determine how far follow the server will extend out the front of the rack.
Larger chassis should be positioned to balance the weight between front and
back.
2. If a bezel is included on your server, remove it.
3. Attach the two front brackets to each side of the chassis, then the two rear
brackets positioned with just enough space to accommodate the width of the
telco rack.

System Interface
3-1 Overview
There are several LEDs on the control panel and on the drive carriers that provide
system and component status for the server. This chapter explains the meanings of
all LED indicators and the appropriate responses that need to be taken.
3-2 Control Panel Buttons
There are two buttons located on the front of the chassis: a power on/off button
and a UID button.
Figure 3-1. Control Panel Buttons and LEDs
Power
The main power switch 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
system before servicing.

UID
Depressing the UID (Unit Identier) button illuminates an LED on both the front
and rear of the chassis for easy system location in large stack congurations. The
LED will remain on until the button is pushed a second time. Another UID button
on the rear of the chassis serves the same function. See the table in Figure 3-1 for
descriptions of UID LED states.
3-3 Control Panel LEDs
The control panel located on the front of the SC116 chassis has ve LEDs. These
LEDs provide critical information related to different parts of the system. This section
explains what each LED indicates when illuminated and any action that may be
required. See Figure 3-1 for the locations of the LEDs.
Universal Information LED
When this LED blinks red quickly, it indicates a fan failure and when blinking red
slowly a power failure. This LED will be blue when used for UID (Unit Identier).
When on continuously it indicates an overheat condition, which may be caused by
cables obstructing the airow in the system or the ambient room temperature being
too warm. Check the routing of the cables and make sure all fans are present and
operating normally. You should also check to make sure that the chassis covers
are installed. Finally, verify that the heatsinks are installed properly (see Chapter
5). This LED will remain ashing or on as long as the indicated condition exists.
See the table below for descriptions of the LED states.
Note: deactivating the UID LED must be performed in the same way it was activated.
(If the UID LED was activated via IPMI, you can only turn the LED off via IPMI and
not with the UID button.)
HDD
Indicates SATA/NVMe PCI SSD channel activity when ashing.
NIC2
Indicates network activity on GLAN2 when ashing.
NIC1
Indicates network activity on GLAN1 when ashing.
Power
Indicates power is being supplied to the system's power supply units. This LED
should normally be illuminated when the system is operating.

3-4 Hard Drive Carrier LEDs
The SC116AC chassis supports the use of 10 SATA/NVMe PCI SSD drives.
Hard Drives
Each hard drive carrier has two LEDs.
• Blue: When illuminated, this blue LED (on the front of the hard drive carrier)
indicates drive activity. A connection to the backplane enables this LED to blink
on and off when that particular drive is being accessed.
• Red: The red LED indicates a drive failure. If one of the drives fail, you should
be notied by your system management software.
