Chapter 2: Server Installation
2-1
Chapter 2
Server Installation
2-1 Overview
This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your 8046B-6RF/8046B-TRF
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 specific components.
2-2 Unpacking the System
You should inspect the box the 8046B-6RF/8046B-TRF was shipped in and note
if it was damaged in any way. If the server itself shows damage you should file a
damage claim with the carrier who delivered it.
Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold the 8046B-6RF/8046B-
TRF. It should be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid
areas where heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic fields are generated. You
will also need it placed near a grounded power outlet. Be sure to read the Rack
and Server Precautions in the next section.
2-3 Preparing for Setup
The 8046B-6RF/8046B-TRF is designed to be used in a tower configuration. It may
also be mounted on a rack with an optional rack rail kit (not included, part number
MCP-290-00059-0B ). If mounting to a rack with the rail kit, follow the steps in the
order given to complete the installation process in a minimum amount of time.
Please read this section in its entirety before you begin the installation procedure
outlined in the sections that follow.

2-2
SUPERSERVER 8046B-6RF/8046B-TRF User's Manual
Warnings and Precautions!
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 sufficient airflow and ease in servicing.
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 the German Ordinance for Work with Visual Display
Units.
Rack Precautions
Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully extended to•
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 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 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.

Chapter 2: Server Installation
2-3
Allow the hot plug SAS/SATA 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 Airflow
Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that the amount of airflow 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.).

SUPERSERVER 8046B-6RF/8046B-TRF User's Manual
2-4 Installing the System into a Rack
This section provides information on installing the system into a rack unit. Rack
installation requires the use of the optional rackmount kit If the system has already
been mounted into a rack or if you are using it as a tower, you can skip ahead to
Sections 2-5 and 2-6. There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may
mean the assembly procedure will differ slightly. The following is a guideline for
installing the server into a rack with the rack rails provided in the rackmount kit.
You should also refer to the installation instructions that came with the rack unit you
are using. Note: The outer rail is adjustable from 26" to 38.25".
Removing the Chassis Cover and Feet
The SC748 chassis is shipped with the chassis cover and feet pre-installed. Both
the feet and cover must be removed for before installing the rails.
Removing the Chassis Top Cover
Locate the chassis cover lock (blue lever) at the rear of the chassis cover.1.
Slide the chassis cover lock to the right and push chassis cover forward.2.
Lift the chassis top cover off the chassis.3.
Removing the Chassis Feet
Place the chassis on its side with the chassis side cover facing upward.1.
Remove the screw holding the chassis foot in place.2.
The foot lock is a tab located in the center of the foot that prevents the foot3. from sliding. Using a flat head screwdriver, gently lift the foot lock upward
and slide the foot toward the rear of the chassis.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 with each remaining foot.4.
