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

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 devices. Use these identifiers to connect the cables to the correct connectors.

If the server comes with an installed operating system, see the documentation that comes with the operating system for additional cabling instructions.

There is no keyboard connector or mouse connector on the server. You can connect a USB keyboard and USB mouse to the server by using the USB connectors.

Updating the server configuration

When you start the server for the first time after you add or remove an internal optional device or external SAS device, 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 3, “Configuring the server,” on page 37.

Some optional devices have device drivers that you must install. For information about installing device drivers, see the documentation that comes with each device.

If the server has a RAID configuration that uses the SAS/SATA controller with integrated RAID (hot-swap SATA or SAS models only) and you have installed or removed a hard disk drive, you might have to reconfigure the disk arrays.

If the server has an optional RAID adapter and you have installed or removed a hard disk drive, see the documentation that comes with the RAID adapter for information about reconfiguring the disk arrays.

If the server is a simple-swap model that contains a SATA RAID back plate, you can use the LSI Logic Configuration Utility program to configure the simple-swap SATA hard disk drives.

For information about configuring an integrated Gigabit Ethernet controller, see “Configuring the Gigabit Ethernet controllers” on page 46.
