Attention: In a dc power environment, only trained service personnel other than Lenovo service technicians are authorized to connect or disconnect power to the dc power supply. See the documentation that comes with each dc power supply for instructions and an illustration of the dc power supply.

You must turn off the server before you connect or disconnect cables from the server.

See the documentation that comes with any external devices for additional cabling instructions. It might be easier for you to route cables before you connect the devices to the server.

Cable identifiers are printed on the cables that come with the server and optional devices. Use these identifiers to connect the cables to the correct connectors.

Updating the server configuration

When you start the server for the first time after you add or remove an internal optional device, external SAS device, or USB keyboard or mouse, you might receive a message that the configuration has changed. The Configuration/Setup Utility program starts automatically so that you can save the new configuration settings. For more information, see Chapter 4, “Configuringthe server,” on page 41.

Some optional devices have device drivers that you must install. See the documentation that comes with each optional device for information about installing device drivers.

The server comes with at least one microprocessor. If more than one microprocessor is installed, the server can operate as a symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) server. You might have to upgrade the operating system to support SMP. For more information, see the operating-system documentation.
