1-2 Serverboard Features
At the heart of the SuperServer 6038R-TXR lies the X10DRX, a dual processor
serverboard based on the Intel C612 chipset. Below are the main features of the
X10DRX. (See Figure 1-1 for a block diagram of the chipset.)
Processors
The X10DRX supports two Intel®E5-2600 v3/v4 Series processors in LGA 2011
sockets (Socket R3). Please refer to the serverboard description pages on our
website for a complete listing of supported processors (www.supermicro.com).
Memory
The X10DRX has sixteen DIMM slots that can support up to 2 TB of ECC
LRDIMM (Load Reduced DIMM) or 512 GB of ECC RDIMM (Registered DIMM)
DDR4-2400/2133/1866/1600 memory. Modules of the same size and speed are
recommended. See Chapter 5 for details.
Serial ATA
A SATA controller is integrated into the chipset to provide a ten-port SATA 3.0
subsystem, which is RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 supported. The I-SATA0 through I-SATA5
ports are supported by the Intel PCH while the S-SATA0 through S-SATA0-3 ports
are supported by the Intel SCU. The SATA drives are hot-swappable units.
Note: The operating system you use must have RAID support to enable the hot-
swap capability and RAID function of the Serial ATA drives.
PCI Expansion Slots
The X10DRX has ten PCI-E 3.0 x8 and one PCI-E 2.0 x4 (in x8) slots for a total
of eleven PCI expansion slots.
Rear I/O Ports
The rear I/O ports include one COM port, a VGA (monitor) port, four USB 2.0 ports,
a dedicated IPMI LAN port and two Gb Ethernet LAN ports.
IPMI
IPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Interface) is a hardware-level interface
specication that provides remote access, monitoring and administration for
Supermicro server platforms. IPMI allows server administrators to view a server’s
hardware status remotely, receive an alarm automatically if a failure occurs, and
power cycle a system that is non-responsive.
1-3 Server Chassis Features
The following is a general outline of the main features of the SC835XTQ-R982B
server chassis.
System Power
The SC835XTQ-R982B features a redundant 980W high-efciency power supply
composed of two separate power modules. This power redundancy feature allows
you to replace a failed power supply without shutting down the system.
SATA Subsystem
The SC835XTQ-R982B supports up to eight SATA drives. These drives are hot-
swappable units and are connected to a backplane that provides power and control.
Front Control Panel
The control panel on the SuperServer 6038R-TXR provides you with system
monitoring and control. LEDs indicate system power, HDD activity, network activity,
system overheat and power supply failure. The main power button and a system
reset button are also located here.
Cooling System
The SC835XTQ-R982B chassis has an innovative cooling design that includes three
8-cm hot-plug system cooling fans located in the middle section of the chassis and
one 8-cm exhaust fan. An air shroud channels the airow from the system fans to
efciently cool the processor area of the system. The power supply module also
includes a cooling fan.

Chapter 2
Server Installation
2-1 Overview
This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to install the 6038R-TXR into a rack.
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 6038R-TXR 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 6038R-
TXR. 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 6038R-TXR 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.
• This product is for installation only in a Restricted Access Location (dedicated
equipment rooms, service closets and the like).

Chapter 2: Server Installation
2-32-2
SUPERSERVER 6038R-TXR User's Manual
• 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.
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.
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.
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.).

2-5 Installing the System into a Rack
This section provides information on installing the SC835 chassis into a rack unit
with the quick-release 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.
Installing the Inner Rack Rails
Installing the Inner Rails
1. Place the inner rack extensions on the side of the chassis aligning the hooks
of the chassis with the rail extension holes.
2. Slide the extension toward the front of the chassis.

Figure 2-3. Outer Rack Rails
Installing the Outer Rack Rails
Outer rails attach to the server rack and hold the server in place. The outer rails for
the SC835 chassis extend between 30 inches and 33 inches.
Installing the Outer Rails
1. Begin by measuring the distance from the front rail to the rear rail of the rack
2. Attach a short bracket to the front side of the right outer rail and a long
bracket to the rear side of the right outer rail.
3. Adjust both the short and long brackets to the proper distance so that the rail
can t snugly into the rack.
4. Secure the short bracket to the front side of the outer rail with two screws and
the long bracket to the rear side of the outer rail with three screws.
5. Repeat these steps for the left outer rail.
Figure 2-2. Inner Rack Rails Installed
Warning: do not pick up the server with the front handles. They are de-
signed to pull the system from a rack only.
Slide rail mounted equipment is not to be used as a shelf or a work space.
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.

take the load and keep the system running but the failed module will need to be
replaced. Refer to Chapter 6 for details on replacing the power supply. This LED
should be off when the system is operating normally.
NIC1
Indicates network activity on the LAN1 port when ashing.
NIC2
Indicates network activity on the LAN2 port when ashing.
HDD
On the SuperServer 6038R-TXR, this LED indicates SATA hard drive and/or DVD-
ROM drive activity 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 Drive Carrier LEDs
Each drive carrier has two LEDs:
• Green: When illuminated, the green LED on the 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 to indicate a drive failure. If one of the drives fails, you should
be notied by your system management software. Please refer to Chapter 6 for
instructions on replacing failed drives.
Information LED
This LED will be solid blue when the UID function has been activated. When this
LED ashes red, it indicates a fan failure. When red 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.
