For example, install the AMC and set switches, as necessary (Section 2.2.2,

“Configuring the Hardware” on page 2-6).

2. Physically installing the advanced rear transition module (ARTM) as necessary

(Section 2.2.3.1, “Installing an Advanced Rear Transition Module (ARTM)”on

page2-8).

3. Physically installing the Sun Netra CP3250 blade server, and any peripheral

boards into the ATCAshelf Section 2.2.3, “Installingthe Netra CP3250 Blade

Server in an ATCA Shelf” on page 2-8).

4. Connecting the nodes to a local network. (Section 2.2.4, “Connecting ExternalI/O

Cables” on page 2-13).

5. Downloading and installing SunVTS (Section 4.1, “Operating Systems” on

page4-2), if you are runningthe Solaris Operating System on the Sun Netra

2.2.2 Configuring the Hardware

This section lists hardware installation and settings that might apply to your blade

server configuration. Read and perform the procedures, as necessary,before

installing the Sun Netra CP3250 blade server into the ATCAshelf.

2.2.2.1 Verify Chassis Fan Tray Upgrade

Caution – The Netra CT 900 server fan tray upgrade kit (594-4953) must be

installed in the chassis before the Sun Netra CP3250 blade server is installed. This

fan tray upgrade is required to provide adequate cooling and preventthe system

from overheating or shutting down due to an over temperature condition that can

occur with the older or mismatched fan trays.
