SUPERSERVER 6027TR-HTQRF/HTFRF/HTRF USER'S MANUAL
1-6 2U Twin2: System Notes
As a 2U Twin2configuration, the SuperServer 6027TR-HTQRF/HTFRF/HTRF 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 independant
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:Aguide 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 1620 Watt 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.
SATA Backplane/Drives
As a system, the SuperServer 6027TR-HTQRF/HTFRF/HTRF 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 configuration.

the floor 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
simultaneously 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 first, 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.
