Chapter 2: Server Installation Chapter 2 System Setup 2-1 Overview This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your SuperServer 7046GTTRF/7046GT-TRF-TC4 up and running. Following the steps in the order given should enable you to have the system operational within a minimal amount of time. If your system is not already fully integrated with a motherboard, processor, system memory etc., please turn to the chapter or section noted in each step for details on installing specific components.
SUPERSERVER 7046GT-TRF/7046GT-TRF-TC4 User's Manual 2-3 Setting Up the System You should first open the left side panel (when facing the front of the chassis) to make sure the motherboard is properly installed and all connections have been made. Warning: Only qualified service technicians should access the inside of ! the system. Except for short periods of time, do NOT operate the system without the cover in place. The chassis cover must be in place to allow proper airflow and prevent overheating.
Chapter 2: Server Installation 2. Check the SATA disk drives: Depending upon your system's configuration, your system may have up to four SATA drives already installed. If you need to install or remove an SATA drive, please refer to the appropriate section in Chapter 6. 3. Check the airflow: Cooling air is provided by the chassis fan and the power supply fan. The system component layout was carefully designed to promote sufficient airflow throughout the chassis.
SUPERSERVER 7046GT-TRF/7046GT-TRF-TC4 User's Manual ! Warnings and Precautions! ! 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.
Chapter 2: Server Installation Rack Mounting Considerations Ambient Operating Temperature If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the ambient operating temperature 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 temperature (Tmra).
SUPERSERVER 7046GT-TRF/7046GT-TRF-TC4 User's Manual 2-5 Installing the Chassis onto a Rack This section provides information on installing the SC747 chassis into a rack unit with the optional 4U 17.2" width rail set (MCP-290-00059-0N). 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. NOTE: The outer rail is adjustable from 26" to 38.25".
Chapter 2: Server Installation Removing the Chassis Top Cover 1. Locate the chassis cover lock (blue lever) at the rear of the chassis cover. 2. Slide the chassis cover lock to the right and push chassis cover forward. 3. Lift the chassis top cover off the chassis. Removing the Chassis Feet 1. Place the chassis on its side with the chassis side cover facing upward. 2. Remove the screw holding the chassis foot in place. 3.

Chapter 3: System Interface Chapter 3 System Interface 3-1 Overview There are several LEDs on the control panel as well as others on the drive carriers to keep you constantly informed of the overall status of the system as well as the activity and health of specific components. Most SC747 models are two buttons on the chassis a control panel: a reset button and an on/off switch. This chapter explains the meanings of all LED indicators and the appropriate response you may need to take.
SUPERSERVER 7046GT-TRF/7046GT-TRF-TC4 User's Manual 3-2 Control Panel Buttons There are two push-buttons located on the front of the chassis. These are power on/off button and a reset button. • Power: The main power switch is used to apply or remove power from the power supply to the server system. Turning off system power with this button removes the main power but keeps standby power supplied to the system. Therefore, you must unplug system before servicing.
Chapter 3: System Interface • NIC2: Indicates network activity on GLAN2 when flashing. • Overheat/Fan Fail: When this LED flashes it indicates a fan failure. When continuously on (not flashing) it indicates an overheat condition, which may be caused by cables obstructing the airflow 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.
SUPERSERVER 7046GT-TRF/7046GT-TRF-TC4 User's Manual 3-4 Drive Carrier LEDs Your chassis uses SAS/SATA drives. SAS/SATA Drives Each SAS/SATA drive carrier has two LEDs. • Green: Each Serial ATA drive carrier has a green LED. When illuminated, this green LED (on the front of the SATA drive carrier) indicates drive activity. A connection to the SATA backplane enables this LED to blink on and off when that particular drive is being accessed. • Red: The red LED to indicate an SAS/SATA drive failure.
Chapter 4: System Safety Chapter 4 System Safety 4-1 Electrical Safety Precautions ! Basic electrical safety precautions should be followed to protect yourself from harm and the SuperServer 7046GT-TRF/7046GT-TRF-TC4 from damage: • Be aware of the locations of the power on/off switch on the chassis as well as the room's emergency power-off switch, disconnection switch or electrical outlet. If an electrical accident occurs, you can then quickly remove power from the system.
SUPERSERVER 7046GT-TRF/7046GT-TRF-TC4 User's Manual • This product may be connected to an IT power system. In all cases, make sure that the unit is also reliably connected to Earth (ground). • Serverboard Battery: CAUTION - There is a danger of explosion if the onboard battery is installed upside down, which will reverse its polarites (see Figure 4-1). This battery must be replaced only with the same or an equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
Chapter 4: System Safety • Remove any jewelry or metal objects from your body, which are excellent metal conductors that can create short circuits and harm you if they come into contact with printed circuit boards or areas where power is present. • After accessing the inside of the system, close the system back up and secure it to the rack unit with the retention screws after ensuring that all connections have been made.
SUPERSERVER 7046GT-TRF/7046GT-TRF-TC4 User's Manual 4-4 Operating Precautions ! Care must be taken to assure that the chassis cover is in place when the 7046GTTRF/7046GT-TRF-TC4 is operating to assure proper cooling. Out of warranty damage to the system can occur if this practice is not strictly followed. Figure 4-1. Installing the Onboard Battery LITHIUM BATTERY BATTERY HOLDER !
