Note: Reinstall the bezel assembly on the BladeCenter T unit after you have finished turning on the blades. However, if you installed an option such as a PCI I/O Expansion Unit with PCI adapters that require cables, you

will not be able to install the bezel assembly, which contains an air filter

for the BladeCenter T unit. If you cannot install the bezel assembly, a filter must be provided on the rack. See the IBM Eserver BladeCenter

T Planning and Installation Guide for information about installing an air filter on the rack (you can obtain the planning guide from http://www.ibm.com/pc/support/).

If this is the initial installation for a blade server in the BladeCenter unit, you must configure the blade server with the blade server Configuration/Setup Utility and

install the blade server operating system. See “Updating your blade server configuration” and the IBM Eserver BladeCenter HS40 Type 8839 Installation and

User’s Guide for details.

Updating your blade server configuration

When you start your blade server for the first time after you add or remove an internal option or external SCSI device (if the storage expansion unit has been installed), you might receive a message that the configuration has changed. The blade server Configuration/Setup Utility program starts automatically so that you can save the new configuration settings. For more information, see “Using the Configuration/Setup Utility program” on page 11.

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

If your blade server comes with more than one microprocessor or if your blade server comes with one microprocessor and you have installed additional microprocessors, your blade server might be able to operate as an SMP server. You
