These instructions are intended for users who are experienced with setting up IBM server hardware. If you need more detailed instructions, see the User ’s Guide on the IBM xSeries Documentation CD.
System reliability guidelines To help ensure proper system cooling and system reliability , make sure that the following requirements are met: v Each of the drive bays has a drive or a filler panel and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) shield installed in it.
Handling static-sensitive devices Attention: Static electricity can damage the server and other electronic devices. To avoid damage, keep static-sensitive devices in their static-protective packages until you are ready to install them. To reduce the possibility of electrostatic discharge, observe the following precautions: v Limit your movement.
Removing the side cover To remove the server side cover , complete the following steps: 1. Review the safety information that begins on page v and the “Installation guidelines” on page 7. 2. Turn of f the server and all attached devices (see “T urning off the server” on page 36); then, disconnect all power cords and external cables.
Removing the two-piece bezel When working with some devices, such as drives in bays 1 through 7, you must first remove the two-piece bezel to access the devices.
5. Carefully pull the two bezel clips on the left side of the upper bezel away from the chassis; then, rotate the upper bezel to the right side of the server to disengage the two right-side tabs from the chassis. Set the upper bezel aside. For instructions for reinstalling the two-piece bezel, see “Reinstalling the two-piece bezel” on page 28.
Installing a memory module The following notes describe the types of dual inline memory modules (DIMMs) that the server supports and other information that you must consider when installing DIMMs: v The server supports industry-standard, 533/667 MHz, PC2-4200, double-data-rate 2 (DDR2) dual inline memory modules (DIMMs).
The following illustration shows the dual inline memory module (DIMM) connectors and corresponding LEDs on the system board. DIMM 4 DIMM 3 DIMM 2 DIMM 1 DIMM 1 error LED DIMM 2 error LED DIMM 3 error .
4. Locate the DIMM connectors on the system board. Determine the connectors into which you will install the DIMMs. Install the DIMMs in the sequence shown in the following table.
Installing a drive Depending on the server model, one or more of the following drives might be installed in the server: v Diskette drive (optional) v Hard disk drive v CD-ROM, CD-RW , or DVD/CD-RW com.
v Check the instructions that come with the drive to see whether you have to set any switches or jumpers on the drive. If you are installing a SAS device, be sure to set the SAS ID for that device. v Diskette drives, tape drives, CD drives, CD-RW drives, and DVD/CD-RW combo drives are examples of removable-media drives.
5. Use a screwdriver to pry the filler panel and EMC shield away from the server . Note: If you are installing a drive that contains a laser , observe the following safety precaution.
to the left to remove it from the drive cage; then, snap the drive retainer clip into the screw holes on the side of the drive (the blue side of the drive retainer clip should be facing outward). 9. If you are installing a 5.25-in. drive in bay 2, push the drive into the bay .
Filler panel Drive-tra y assembly Drive tra y handle (in open position) To install a hot-swap hard disk drive, complete the following steps: 1. Read the safety information that begins on page v and “Installation guidelines” on page 7. 2. Unlock the side cover .
on the IBM ServeRAID Support CD for additional information about RAID operation and complete instructions for using ServeRAID Manager . 6. If you are installing additional hot-swap hard disk drives, do so now . If you have other options to install or remove, do so now; otherwise go to “Completing the installation” on page 28.
To install a simple-swap hard disk drive, complete the following steps: 1. Read the safety information that begins on page v and “Installation guidelines” on page 7. 2. Turn of f the server and peripheral devices and disconnect all external cables and power cords.
Installing a non-hot-swap S ATA hard disk drive in bay 4, 5, 6, or 7 Some server models come with non-hot-swap S ATA hard disk drives. Before you install a non-hot-swap S ATA hard disk drive, read the following information: v Read the documentation that comes with the drive for cabling instructions.
7. Pull the loops of the drive assembly toward each other; then, carefully slide the drive assembly into the drive bay until it stops and release the loops. Note: Do not release the loops on the drive assembly until it is completely seated. 8. Attach the signal cable to the drive: a.
– (Optional) Diskette drive: The narrower signal cable has two connectors. One is attached to the diskette drive, and the other is connected to the connector (FDD1) on the system board. – S ATA : The narrower , black signal cable has two connectors.
v The server scans PCI Express x1 slot 2, PCI Express x8 slot 1, and PCI slots 3 and 4 to assign system resources. If the optional PCI-X expansion card is attached to the system board, the server also scans PCI-X slots 5 and 6 to assign additional system resources.
1. Read the safety information that begins on page v and “Installation guidelines” on page 7. 2. Turn of f the server and peripheral devices and disconnect all external cables and power cords; then, remove the side cover . See “Removing the side cover” on page 10.

2. Install the lower bezel on the front of the server chassis. a. Insert the two bottom tabs on the lower bezel into the matching holes in the front of the chassis. b. Tilt the top of the lower bezel into position on the chassis until the lower bezel locks securely into place.
Reinstalling the side cover If you removed the bezel, reinstall it before you reinstall the side cover . See “Reinstalling the two-piece bezel” on page 28. Note: The rear adapter-retention bracket rests against the server side cover . Yo u might find it easier to lay the server on its side to reinstall the side cover .
Connecting the cables Attention: To prevent damage to equipment, connect the power cords last. If the server cables and connector panel have color-coded connections, match the color of the cable end with the color of the connector . For example, match a blue cable end with a blue panel connector , a red cable end with a red connector , and so on.
