Installing the top cover
To install the server top cover:
1.
Before installing the cover, check that all cables, adapters, and other components
are installed and seated correctly and that you have not left loose tools or parts
inside the server.
2.
Lower the cover with the rear edge of the cover about 25 mm (1 inch) back from
the rear edge of the server.
3.
Slide the cover forward.
4.
Tighten the two captive screws on the back edge of the cover.
5.
If you disconnected any cables from the back of the server, reconnect the cables;
then, plug the power cords into properly grounded electrical outlets.
Note:
If necessary, see “Cabling the server” on page 38 for connector locations.
Reconfiguring the server
When you start your server for the first time after you add or remove an internal
option or an external SCSI device, you might see a message telling you that the
configuration has changed. Run the Configuration/Setup Utility program to save the
new configuration information. See “Chapter 4. Configuring your server,” on page 45.
Some options have device drivers that you need to install. Refer to the documentation
that comes with your option for information about installing any required device
drivers.
If you have installed a new microprocessor, you might want to upgrade your
operating system to support symmetric multiprocessing (SMP). Refer to the User’s
Reference on the IBM xSeries Documentation CD for additional information.
If you have installed or removed a hard disk drive, refer to the information that comes
with your ServeRAID adapter for details on configuring your disk arrays.
