System Configuration Guide 1-1

This guide provides information on configuring your system and the server modules in your

system. The guide provides a starting point for system configuration; however, additional

information is available from additional sources.

Your system can include up to six server modules (or blades). Each server module functions

as an individual system encompassing up to two microprocessors, up to two hard drives, and

up to two memory modules. To function as a system, a server module is inserted into a

system that includes power supplies, fans, a system management module, and at least one

network switch module. The power supplies, fans, system management module, and

network switch module are shared resources of the server modules in the system. In

addition, your system may also ship with a USB diskette drive and a USB CD drive, which

you can use for system setup and configuration. Figure 1-1 shows the drive shelf attached so

that you can load software.

Figure 1-1. System With Drive Shelf

The network switch module and a system management module require additional

configuration. The system management module contains the keyboard, video, and mouse

(KVM) switch and the embedded remote access circuitry and firmware used to configure

systems management software. Figure 1-2 shows the location of the back-panel features.

System Configuration Guide 1-3

• The Dell Embedded Remote Access/MC User’s Guide describes using the remote access

features on the systems management module, including default settings for the

remote access features.

• The online Dell PowerEdge Integrated Switch User's Guide describes the features and

how to use the network switch modules.

• The Dell OpenManage Server Assistant User’s Guide provides detailed information on

the systems management software applications, as well as information on alternative

upgrade paths.

• Systems management software documentation describes the features, requirements,

installation, and basic operation of the software.

• Operating system documentation describes how to install (if necessary), configure,

and use the operating system software.

• Other documentation included on the CDs that came with your system describes the

use of advanced system features.

• Documentation for any components you purchased separately provides information to

configure and install these options.

• Updates are sometimes included with the system to describe changes to the system,

software, and/or documentation.

NOTE: Always read the updates first because they often supersede information in other

documents.

Release notes or readme files may be included to provide last-minute updates to the system

or documentation, or advanced technical reference material intended for experienced users

or technicians.

When You Begin

1Unpack the system and install it in a rack.

2Connect power to the power supplies.

3Connect the keyboard, video, and mouse to the KVM switch on the management

module.

4Use the KVM switch to select a server module. See "Using the KVM Switch." Online

help is available while using the KVM switch.

5If required, configure the hard drives for RAID 1 or integrated mirroring. It is

recommended that you configure RAID 1 prior to installation of the operating system.

1-4 System Configuration Guide

www.dell.com | support.dell.com

NOTICE: The system management module and the network switch module(s) are DHCP-

enabled. If you have a DHCP server on your network, the server will provide a dynamic IP

address to the modules and will permit configuration by way of the network. Steps 6 and 7 are

not required unless you need to configure a static IP address.

6Configure the system management module IP address and time using the serial port

on the management module. See "Using Remote Access Features."

7Assign IP addresses to the network switch modules using the serial port on the system

management module. See "Using the Network Switch Module."

8Use the Dell OpenManage Server Assistant CD to load an operating system (if an

operating system has not been installed) and to configure drivers. See "Using the Dell

OpenManage Server Assistant CD" in the User’s Guide.

9To create an image of the server module, use Dell OpenManage™ Remote Install to

duplicate the server module’s configuration. Use the Dell OpenManage Systems

Management CD to install the systems management software, including Remote

Install software.

Using Remote Access Features

You can initially configure the system management module and the network switch module

using the serial port on the system management module, a client system, and a serial null

modem cable. Initial configuration allows you to configure a static IP address on the system

management and network switch modules. The system management module serial port

provides a command-line interface to configure features on the network switch module and

remote access features. The Ethernet interface provides system management access by way

of a browser-based graphical user interface (GUI). You can assign IP addresses to each

switch by using the remote access features. Assign an IP address to a server module using

the operating system. See the operating system documentation for more information. See

Figure 1-3 for detailed information on the system management module, which includes the

remote access features and the onboard KVM.

NOTE: Do not configure the system management module and the network switch

module on the same subnet.

Figure 1-3. System Management Module Features

Configuring the Client System

All versions of the Microsoft®Windows®operating system include Hilgraeve's

HyperTerminal terminal emulation software. However, the included version does not

provide many functions required during console redirection. Either upgrade to

HyperTerminal Private Edition 6.1 or later, or select new terminal emulation software.

NOTE: The examples in this section assume that you have upgraded to Hilgraeve's

HyperTerminal Private Edition 6.1 or later. If you are using other terminal emulation

software, see the documentation for that software.

1Connect the null modem cable to the serial port on the system management module

and to the client system.
