NIC. This switching occurs without data loss and without user intervention. v IBM ServerGuide CDs The ServerGuide CDs included with the Netfinity server provide programs to help you set up the server and install the network operating system (NOS). The ServerGuide program detects the hardware options that are installed, and provides the correct configuration programs and device drivers.
Reliability, availability, and serviceability Three of the most important features in server design are reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS). These factors help to ensure the integrity of the data stored on the server; that the server is available when you want to use it; and that should a failure occur, you can easily diagnose and repair the failure with minimal inconvenience.
Controls and indicators The following illustration shows the controls and indicators on the server. Information LED panel Power-control button Reset button Diskette drive in-use light Diskette-eject button CD-ROM drive in-use light CD-ROM eject/load button Hard-disk Hard-disk activity light status light Hard-disk drive status light: Each of the hot-swap drives has a status light.

CAUTION: The power control button on the device and/or the power switch on the power supply do not turn off the electrical current supplied to the device. The device also might have more than one power cord. To remove all electrical current from the device, ensure that all power cords are disconnected from the power source.
Information LED panel:The lights on this panel give status information for the server. See “Information LED panel”.

Ethernet speed 100 Mbps: When this green light is on, the Ethernet speed is 100 Mbps. When the light is off, the Ethernet speed is 10 Mbps. Processor activity lights: One or more of these green lights are on when there is microprocessor activity.
If POST finishes without detecting any problems, a single beep sounds, the first screen of the operating system or application program appears, and the System POST Complete (OK) light is illuminated on the operator information panel. If POST detects a problem, more than one beep sounds and an error message appears on the screen.
Diagnostic error messages indicate that a problem exists; they are not intended to be used to identify a failing part. Troubleshooting and servicing of complex problems that are indicated by error messages should be performed by trained service personnel. Sometimes the first error to occur causes additional errors. In this case, the server displays more than one error message.
Warning This result occurs when a possible problem is reported during the diagnostic test, such as when a device that is to be tested is not installed. Test Specific String This is additional information that you can use to analyze the problem. Starting the diagnostic programs You can press F1 while running the diagnostic programs to obtain Help information.
Viewing the test log The test log will not contain any information until after the diagnostic program has run. Note: If you already are running the diagnostic programs, begin with step 3. To view the test log: 1. Turn on the server and watch the screen. If the server is on, shut down the operating system and restart the server.

Installing a hot-swap power supply Before you continue with the power supply-installation procedure, review the following. Notes: 1. During normal operation, each power supply bay must have either a power supply or filler panel installed for proper cooling. 2. If you have a rack model, before you install a power supply in the right-most power supply bay, you must disconnect the cable-management arm.
Refer to the following illustration to install a hot-swap power supply. Handle Filler panel DC power light AC power light To install an additional power supply: 1. Review “Before you begin” on page 43. 2. Remove the filler panel. 3. Place the handle on the power supply in the open position. 4.

Attention: For proper cooling and airflow, install the top cover before turning on the server. Operating the server for extended periods of time (over 30 minutes) with the top cover removed might damage server components. Installing the server front door and media-bay bezel Refer to the following illustration to install the server front door and media-bay bezel.
Installing the top cover Top cover Captive screws 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.

CAUTION: Electrical current from power, telephone, and communication cables can be hazardous. To avoid personal injury or equipment damage, disconnect the attached power cords, telecommunication systems, networks, and modems before you open the server covers, unless instructed otherwise in the installation and configuration procedures.
This guide addresses only those items. However, good judgment should be used to identify potential safety hazards due to attachment of non-IBM features or options not covered by this inspection guide.
4. Remove the cover. 5. Check for any obvious non-IBM alterations. Use good judgment as to the safety of any non-IBM alterations. 6. Check inside the unit for any obvious unsafe conditions, such as metal filings, contamination, water or other liquids, or signs of fire or smoke damage.
