SUPERSERVER 5010H/5010E Manual

6.Check all cable connections and airflow:

Make sure all power and data cables are properly connected and not blocking the airflow. See Section 5-3 for details on cable connections. Also, check the air seals for damage. The air seals are located under the blower fan and beneath the frame cross section that separates the drive bay area from the motherboard area of the chassis. (*Note:

Make sure that the air seals are properly installed.)

2-6 Checking the Drive Bay Setup

Next, you should check to make sure the peripheral drives and the SCSI drives (5010H only) and SCA backplane have been properly installed and all connections have been made.

1.Accessing the drive bays:

All drives can be accessed from the front of the server. For servicing the CD-ROM and floppy drives, you will need to remove the top chassis cover. The SCSI disk drives can be installed and removed from the front of the chassis without removing the top chassis cover.

2.Installing a CD-ROM and floppy disk drives:

Refer to Section 6-4 if you need to reinstall a CD-ROM and/or floppy disk drive to the system.

3.Check the SCSI disk drives: (5010H)

Depending upon your system's configuration, your system may have one or two SCSI drives already installed. If you need to install SCSI drives, please refer to Section 6-4.

4.Check the airflow:

Airflow is provided by a 10-cm input fan and one (optional) 4-cm cooling fan. The system component layout was carefully designed to promote sufficient airflow through the small 1U rackmount space. Also note that all power and data cables have been routed in such a way that they do not block the airflow generated by the fans.
