Chapter 2
Server Installation
2.1 Overview
This chapter provides advice and instructions for mounting your system in a server rack.
If your system is not already fully integrated with processors, system memory etc., refer to
Chapter 4 for details on installing those specic components.
Caution: Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. To prevent such
damage to PCBs (printed circuit boards), it is important to use a grounded wrist strap, handle
all PCBs by their edges and keep them in anti-static bags when not in use.
2.2 Preparing for Setup
The box in which the system was shipped should include the rackmount hardware needed to
install it into the rack. Please read this section in its entirety before you begin the installation.
Choosing a Setup Location
• The system should be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas
where heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic elds are generated.
• Leave enough clearance in front of the rack so that you can open the front door completely
(~25 inches) and approximately 30 inches of clearance in the back of the rack to allow
sufcient space for airow and access when servicing.
• This product should be installed only in a Restricted Access Location (dedicated equipment
rooms, service closets, etc.).
• This product is not suitable for use with visual display workplace devices acccording to §2
of the the German Ordinance for Work with Visual Display Units.
Rack Precautions
• Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are extended to the oor so that
the full weight of the rack rests on them.
• In single rack installations, stabilizers should be attached to the rack. In multiple rack in-
stallations, the racks should be coupled together.
• Always make sure the rack is stable before extending a server or other component from
the rack.
• You should extend only one server or component at a time - extending two or more simul-
taneously may cause the rack to become unstable.
Server Precautions
• Review the electrical and general safety precautions in Appendix B.
• Determine the placement of each component in the rack before you install the rails.
• Install the heaviest server components at the bottom of the rack rst and then work your
way up.
• Use a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect the server from power
surges and voltage spikes and to keep your system operating in case of a power failure.
• Allow any drives and power supply modules to cool before touching them.
• When not servicing, always keep the front door of the rack and all covers/panels on the
servers closed to maintain proper cooling.
Rack Mounting Considerations
Ambient Operating Temperature
If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the ambient operating temperature of
the rack environment may be greater than the room's ambient temperature. Therefore,
consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with
the manufacturer’s maximum rated ambient temperature (TMRA).
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.

SuperServer 5019S-MN4 User's Manual Chapter 2: Server Installation
2019
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 connections other than the
direct connections to the branch circuit (i.e. the use of power strips, etc.).
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.
2.3 Installing the Rails
There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may require a slightly different assembly
procedure.
The following is a basic guideline for installing the system into a rack with the rack mounting
hardware provided. You should also refer to the installation instructions that came with the
specic rack you are using.
Identifying the Rails
The rack rails and the related hardware should have been included with the system. Refer to
Figure 2-1 to identify the rail sections. Note that these two rails are left/right specic
Installing the Chassis Rails
Begin the rack mounting procedure by installing the inner rails to the server chassis.
1. Position the front and rear chassis rail sections along the side of the server making sure
the screw holes line up. Note that these two rails are left/right specic.
2. Screw the front chassis rail (the long piece) securely to the side of the chassis (see
Figure 2-2). There should be two screws for each side. Repeat this procedure for the
other rail on the opposite side of the chassis.
3. Attach the two rear chassis rails to the chassis in the same manner, again keeping in
mind that the rails are left/right specic. (You will also need to attach the rail brackets
when installng into a telco rack.)
Warning: do not pick up the server with the front handles. They are designed to pull
the system from a rack only.
Slide rail mounted equipment is not to be used as a shelf or a work space.

SuperServer 5019S-MN4 User's Manual Chapter 2: Server Installation
2221
Installing the Rack Rails
Determine where you want to place the server in the rack (see the Rack and Server
Precautions in Section 2.2). Note that servers should always be installed to the bottom of a
rack rst for stability reasons.
1. Position the chassis rail guides at the desired location in the rack, keeping the sliding
rail guide facing the inside of the rack.
2. Screw the assembly securely to the rack using the brackets provided.
3. Attach the other assembly to the other side of the rack, making sure that both are at the
exact same height and with the rail guides facing inward.
Note: Both front chassis rails and the rack rails have a locking tab, which serves two functions.
First, it locks the server into place when installed and pushed fully into the rack (its normal
operating position. In addition, these tabs lock the server in place when fully extended from
the rack. This prevents the server from coming completely out of the rack when pulled out
for servicing.
Figure 2-1. Installing the Rear Inner Rails
Figure 2-2. Installing the Server into a Rack
Note: Figures are for illustrative purposes only. Always install servers to the bottom of a rack
rst.
2.4 Installing the Server into a Rack
You should now have rails attached to both the chassis and the rack. The next step is to
install the server into the rack.
1. Line up the rear of the chassis rails with the front of the rack rails.
2. Slide the chassis rails into the rack rails, keeping the pressure even on both sides (you
may have to press the locking tabs when inserting). See Figure 2-2.
3. When the server has been pushed completely into the rack, you should hear the locking
tabs "click".
Warning: 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.

SuperServer 5019S-MN4 User's Manual

Note: Figure is for illustrative purposes only. Always install servers to the bottom of a rack rst.
Installing the Server into a Telco Rack
To install the SuperServer 5019S-MN4 into a Telco (or “open”) type rack, use two L-shaped
brackets on either side of the chassis (four total).
1. First, determine how far the server will extend out from the front of the rack. The chassis
should be positioned so that the weight is balanced between front and back.
2. 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 rack.
3. Finish by sliding the chassis into the rack and tightening the brackets to the rack. See
Figure 2-4.

Notes:
• The motherboard should be installed into the chassis rst and the processor should be
installed into the CPU socket before you install a CPU heatsink.
• If you bought a CPU separately, make sure that you use an Intel-certied multi-directional
heatsink only.
• When receiving a motherboard without a processor pre-installed, make sure that the plastic
CPU socket cap is in place and none of the socket pins are bent; otherwise, contact your
retailer immediately.
• Refer to the Supermicro website for updates on CPU support.
Installing the Processor(s)
Begin by removing power from the system as described in Section 3.1.
1. Remove the cover plate that protects the CPU#1 socket: press the load lever to release
the load plate, which covers the CPU socket, from its locked position.

Memory Installation
Memory Support
The X11SSH-LN4F supports up to 64GB of ECC DDR4-2133/1866/1600/1333 unbuffered
(UDIMM) memory in four memory slots. Populating these DIMM slots with memory modules
of the same type and size will result in interleaved memory, which will improve memory
performance.
Check the Supermicro website for possible updates to memory support.
Installing Memory
Begin by removing power from the system as described in Section 3.1.
1. Starting with DIMMB2 (blue slot), push the release tabs outwards on both ends of the
DIMM slot to unlock it.
2. Align the key of the DIMM with the receptive point on the memory slot and the notches
on both ends of the module with the receptive points on the slot.
3. With your thumbs on both ends of the module, press it straight down into the slot until
the module snaps into place.
4. Press the release tabs to the locked positions to secure the DIMM module into the slot.
Repeat for other DIMM slots as needed. See next page for population sequence.
5. To remove a DIMM, unlock the release tabs then pull the DIMM from the memory slot.
Caution: Exercise extreme caution when installing or removing memory modules to prevent
any possible damage to the DIMMs or slots.

DIMM Module Population Sequence
When installing memory modules, the DIMM slots should be populated in the following order:
DIMMB2, DIMMA2, DIMMB1, DIMMA1.
• Always use DDR4 DIMM modules of the same type, size and speed.
• Mixed DIMM speeds can be installed. However, all DIMMs will run at the speed of the
slowest DIMM.
• The motherboard will support odd-numbered modules (1 or 3 modules installed). However,
for best memory performance, install DIMM modules in pairs to activate memory interleav-
ing.

Figure 3-10. Installing the Onboard Battery
Motherboard Battery
The motherboard uses non-volatile memory to retain system information when system power
is removed. This memory is powered by a lithium battery residing on the motherboard.
Replacing the Battery
Begin by removing power from the system as described in section 3.1.
1. Push aside the small clamp that covers the edge of the battery. When the battery is
released, lift it out of the holder.
2. To insert a new battery, slide one edge under the lip of the holder with the positive (+)
side facing up. Then push the other side down until the clamp snaps over it.
Note: Please handle used batteries carefully. Do not damage the battery in any way; a
damaged battery may release hazardous materials into the environment. Do not discard a
used battery in the garbage or a public landll. Please comply with the regulations set up by
your local hazardous waste management agency to dispose of your used battery properly.
Warning: There is a danger of explosion if the onboard battery is installed upside down (which
reverses its polarities). This battery must be replaced only with the same or an equivalent type
recommended by the manufacturer (CR2032).
Figure 3-11. Removing a Drive Carrier
Warning: Only enterprise level HDDs are recommended for use in the server.
3.4 Chassis Components
Hard Drives
Your server may or may not have come with hard drives installed. Up to four 3.5" hard drives
are supportd by the chassis.
The SATA drives are mounted in drive carriers to simplify their installation and removal from
the chassis. (Both procedures may be done without removing power from the system.)
Removing a Hot-Swap Drive Carrier
1. Push the release button on the carrier.
2. Swing the handle fully out.
3. Grasp the handle and use it to pull the drive carrier out of its bay.
Mounting a Drive in a Drive Carrier
1. To add a new drive, install it into the carrier with the printed circuit board side facing
down so that the mounting holes align with those in the carrier.
2. Secure the drive to the carrier with the screws provided, then push the carrier
completely into the drive bay. You should hear a *click* when the drive is fully inserted.
This indicates that the carrier has been fully seated and connected to the midplane,
which automatically makes the power and logic connections to the hard drive.

supermicro.com/products/nfo/les/storage/SBB-HDDCompList.pdf
Removing a Drive from a Drive Carrier
1. Remove the screws that secure the hard drive to the carrier and separate the hard drive
from the carrier.
2. Replace the carrier back into the drive bay.
Hard Drive Carrier Indicators
Each hard drive carrier has two LED indicators: an activity indicator and a status indicator. In
RAID congurations, the status indicator lights to indicate the status of the drive. In non-RAID
congurations, the status indicator remains off. See the table below for details.
System Cooling
Four 4-cm fans provide the cooling for the system. It is very important that the chassis top
cover is installed for the cooling air to circulate properly through the chassis and cool the
components.
Installing Fans
Fan speed is controlled by system temperature via IPMI. If a fan fails, the remaining fans
will ramp up to full speed. Replace any failed fan at your earliest convenience with the same
type and model (the system can continue to run with a failed fan).
Replacing a System Fan
3. If necessary, open the chassis while the power is running to determine which fan
requires changing. (Never run the server for an extended period of time with the chassis
open.)
4. Power down the system and unplug the AC power cord from the rear of the power
supply. Open the chassis cover.
5. Remove the failed fan's cable from the connector on the motherboard.
6. Gently pull upward to remove the failed fan from the housing.
7. Place the new fan into the vacant space in the housing. Make sure that the arrows on
the side of the fan (indicating air direction) point in the same direction as the arrows on
the other fans.
8. Connect the fan wires to the same fan header as the fan just removed.
9. Plug the power cord into the rear of the power supply, power up the system and check
that the fan is working properly before replacing the chassis cover.

Air Shroud
The air shroud is used to concentrate airow to maximize fan efciency. The air shroud does
not require screws to set up.
Installing the Air Shroud
1. Lay the chassis on a at, stable surface and remove the chassis cover.
2. If necessary, move any cables that interfere with the air shroud placement.
3. Place the air shroud in the chassis. The air shroud ts just behind the fans. Slide the air
shroud into the grooves just behind the fan rack.
4. Reroute any cables that were moved and replace the chassis cover.
Power Supply
The 5019S-MN4 has a single high-efciency power supply, which is auto-switching capable.
This enables it to automatically sense and operate with a 100V to 240V input voltage.
Power Supply Failure
If the power supply unit fails, the system will shut down and you will need to replace the unit.
Replacement units can be ordered directly from Supermicro (see contact information in the
Preface).
Removing the Power Supply
Begin by removing power from the system as described in Section 3.1.
1. Releasing the retention screws that secure the chassis to the rack, then grasp the two
handles on either side and pull the system straight out until it locks (you will hear a
"click").
2. Next, remove the top chassis cover as described in Section 3.2.
3. To remove the failed power unit, remove the two screws on the back and the single
screw on the front of the power supply, which secure it to the chassis. You can then lift
the unit straight out of the chassis.
Installing a New Power Supply
1. Replace the failed power supply with another identical power supply module (exact
same model).
2. Carefully insert the new module into position in the chassis and secure it with the three
screws you removed previously.
3. Reconnect the AC power cord.
4. Replace the chassis top cover and push the server back into the rack.
5. Finish by pressing the power button on the control panel.
Note: the gure above is for illustrative purposes only. The 5019S-MN4 features a single
power supply only.
