1 Setting up the System

Server Position

Please take note of the following criteria for creating a practical and safe workplace when setting up your computer:

CAUTION

The system can be used anywhere the temperature is suitable for people. However, rooms with humidity over 70%, and dusty or dirty areas are not appropriate. In addition, do not expose the server to any temperatures over +35C or under +10C.
Make sure that the cables connecting the server to peripheral devices are not tight.
Make sure that all power and connection cables are positioned so that they are not trip hazards.
When you save data to your servers hard disks or to a oppy disk, they are stored as magnetic information on the media. Make sure that they are not damaged by magnetic or electromagnetic elds.
Because the electronics in your computer can be damaged by jarring, no mechanical devices should be placed on the same surface as the server. This is especially important for impact printers whose vibrations could damage the hard disk.
Hazardous conditions, devices and cables: Hazardous electrical conditions may be present on power, telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the server and disconnect the power cord, telecommunications systems, networks, and modems attached to the server before opening it. Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage can result.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection: ESD can damage disk drives, boards, and other parts. We recommend that you perform all procedures in chapter 3 only at an ESD workstation. If one is not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis ground - any unpainted metal surface - on your server when handling parts.

ATTENTION

In order to fully separate the server from current, the power cord must be removed from the wall outlet.

Powering up the System

At the front of the case, you can nd the neccessary controls like power button, reset button and the HDD LEDs. Press the power button one time briey in order to boot the server.

Conguration Jumpers

Figure 3. Configuration Jumper Location
Table 2. Conguration Jumpers [J1D1] Jumper Name CMOS clear Pins 2-3 What happens at system reset If these pins are jumpered, the CMOS settings will be cleared on the next reset. These pins should be jumpered on 1-2 for normal operation. If these pins are jumpered, administrator and user passwords will be cleared on the next reset. These pins should be jumpered on 5-6 for normal operation. If these pins are jumpered, it is possible to update the BIOS Boot Block code. These pins should be jumpered on 10-11 for normal operation and for normal BIOS operational updates. If these pins are jumpered, the system will attempt to recover the BIOS by loading the BIOS code into the flash device from a floppy disk. This jumper is typically only used when the BIOS has become corrupted. These pins should be jumpered on 13-14 for normal operation.

Hardware Requirements

Processor
A minimum of one Intel Pentium 4 Processor 2.0 GHz with 512 KB Cache cache support is required.

Memory

A minimum of one 128 MB Unbuffered, ECC or non-ECC, DDR266-, DDR333- or DDR400- compliant, 184-pin DIMMs. All memory components and DIMMs used with the server board must comply with the DDR specications. For best performance and dual-channel interleave operation, a minimum of two DIMMs must be installed and the DIMMs must be populated as follows: DIMM 1A and DIMM 2A: Populate these two sockets together rst DIMM 1B and DIMM 2B: Populate these sockets in addition to DIMM 1A and DIMM 2A if four DIMMs are to be used When four DIMMs are installed, the system will use dual-channel interleave. For single-channel memory, a single DIMM can be installed in socket DIMM 1A.
Although the server board architecture allows the user to mix various sizes of DIMMs between channels, DIMMs must be identical within each bank. To be fully compliant with all applicable DDR SDRAM memory specications, the board should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data structure. This allows the BIOS to read the SPD data and program the chipset to accurately congure memory settings for optimum performance. If non-SPD memory is installed, the BIOS will attempt to correctly congure the memory settings, but performance and reliability may be impacted or the DIMMs may not function under the determined frequency. For ECC functionality, all installed DIMMs must be ECC. If both ECC and non-ECC DIMMs are used, ECC will be disabled and will not function.

Before You Begin

Before working with your server product, pay close attention to the safety instructions at the beginning of this manual.

Tools and Supplies Needed
Phillips (cross head) screwdriver (#1 bit and #2 bit) Needle nosed pliers Antistatic wrist strap and conductive foam pad (recommended)

Installing a PCI Card

The PCI slots support full-height add-in cards or low prole PCI add-in cards. If a low prole card is installed in the standard full-height riser card, it must be equipped with a standard full-height PCI mounting bracket. 1. Remove the screw that attaches the PCI bracket shield to the rear of the chassis to remove the shield. Retain the screw. 2. Insert the PCI card into the PCI slot. Tipping it in the slot while installing it may damage the PCI card or slot. 3. Use the screw removed in step 1 to secure the PCI card to the chassis.
Replacing the Backup Battery
The lithium battery on the server board powers the RTC for up to 10 years in the absence of power. When the battery starts to weaken, it loses voltage, and the server settings stored in CMOS RAM in the RTC (for example, the date and time) may be wrong. Contact your customer service representative or dealer for a list of approved devices.

WARNING

Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the equipment manufacturer. Discard used batteries according to manufacturers instructions.
