5-8 Checking the Airflow

Checking Airflow

1.Make sure there are no objects to obstruct airflow in and out of the server. In addition, if you are using a front bezel, make sure the bezel's filter is replaced periodically.

2.Do not operate the server without drives or drive trays in the drive bays. Use only recommended server parts.

3.Make sure no wires or foreign objects obstruct airflow through the chassis. Pull all excess cabling out of the airflow path or use shorter cables.

4.The control panel LEDs inform you of system status. See “Chapter 3: System Interface” for details on the LEDs and the control panel buttons.

Installation Complete

In most cases, the chassis power supply and fans are pre-installed. If you need to install fans or power supplies, continue to the Systems Fan and Power Supply sections of this chapter. If the chassis will be installed into a rack, continue to the next chapter for rack installation instructions.
