1-2 Serverboard Features  
At the heart of the SuperServer 6016XT-TF/6016GT-TF/6016GT-TF-TM2/6016GT-  
TF-TC2 lies the X8DTG-DF, a dual processor serverboard based on the Intel 5520  
chipset. Below are the main features of the X8DTG-DF. (See Figure 1-1 for a block  
diagram of the chipset).  
Processors  
The X8DTG-DF supports two Intel Xeon processor 5600/5500 series. Please refer  
to the serverboard description pages on our web site for a complete listing of sup-  
ported processors (www.supermicro.com).  
Memory  
The X8DTG-DF has 12 DIMM slots that can support up to 192 GB of registered  
ECC DDR3-1333/1066/800 SDRAM or up to 48 GB of unbuffered ECC/non-ECC  
DDR3-1333/1066/800 MHz SDRAM. Modules of the same size and speed are  
recommended. See Chapter 5 for details.  
Serial ATA  
A SATA controller is integrated into the South Bridge (ICHR10) section of the chipset  
to provide a six-port 3/Gbs SATA subsystem, which is RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 sup-  
ported. The SATA drives are hot-swappable units.  
Note: The operating system you use must have RAID support to enable the hot-  
swap capability and RAID function of the SATA drives.  
PCI Expansion Slots  
The X8DTG-DF has two PCI-Express 2.0 x16 slots and one PCI-Express 2.0 x4  
slot. The 6016GT-TF-TM2 and 6016GT-TF-TC2 (and the 6016GT-TF if GPUs are  
installed) can accommodate one low-prole PCI-E x4 card with a riser card in a  
x16 slot. The 6016XT-TF without GPUs installed can support four full size PCI-E  
x8 cards in the x16 slots and (with a riser card) one low-prole PCI-E x4 card in  
a x16 slot.  
Onboard Controllers/Ports  
The color-coded I/O ports include one COM port (an additional COM header is  
located on the serverboard), a VGA (monitor) port, two USB 2.0 ports, PS/2 mouse  
and keyboard ports and two Gb Ethernet ports.

Chapter 1: Introduction  
IPMI  
IPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Interface) is a hardware-level interface speci-  
cation that provides remote access, monitoring and administration for Supermicro  
server platforms. IPMI allows server administrators to view a server’s hardware  
status remotely, receive an alarm automatically if a failure occurs, and power cycle  
a system that is non-responsive.  
Other Features  
Other onboard features that promote system health include onboard voltage moni-  
tors, a chassis intrusion header, auto-switching voltage regulators, chassis and CPU  
overheat sensors, virus protection and BIOS rescue.  
1-3 Server Chassis Features  
System Power  
The SC818GTQ-1400B features a Gold Level 1400W high-efciency power supply.  
The AC power cord should be removed from the system before servicing or replac-  
ing the power supply. See Chapter 6 for details.  
SATA Subsystem  
The SC818GTQ-1400B chassis includes three 3.5" drive bays, which may be used  
to house hot-swappable SATA drives. RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 are supported (RAID  
5 is not supported with Linux OS). An optional solution is available to provide six  
2.5" drive bays instead of the standard three 3.5" drive bays.  
Front Control Panel  
The control panel provides a system monitoring and control interface. LEDs indicate  
system power, HDD activity, network activity, system overheat, UID and power sup-  
ply failure. A main power button and a system reset button are also included.  
Cooling System  
The SC818GTQ-1400B has an innovative cooling design that includes four 4-cm  
counter-rotating PWM (Pulse Width Modulated) fans located in the middle section  
of the chassis. Two additional fans are included to cool each GPU in the 6016GT  
series servers. The power supply module also includes a cooling fan. All chassis  
and power supply fans operate continuously. An air shroud channels the airow

from the system fans to efciently cool the processors and memory. See note on  
the following page regarding fan control.  
1-4 GPU Subsystem  
The 6016GT family of servers represents Supermicro's line of massively parallel  
processing dual-GPU servers. Two NVIDIA® Tesla™ GPUs with multiple x16 non-  
blocking native Gen2 PCI-Express connectivity place these systems at the forefront  
of today's GPU computing solutions.  
See the table below for the GPU specications of each server. Refer to the NVIDIA  
web site (www.nvidia.com) for details on Tesla GPUs.  
Notes  
The GPUs process complex image calculations and then route the data out through  
the VGA port on the serverboard.  
The 6016XT-TF can support a single standard size (single-width) GPU only.  
The C1060 GPU model includes an active heatsink. Its fans work independently of  
the system fans and cooling parameters.  
The M1060 model comes with a passive heatsink. Cooling the GPU is a function  
of overall system cooling.

Chapter 2: Server Installation  
Chapter 2  
Server Installation  
2-1 Overview  
This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your SuperServer up and  
running. Following these steps in the order given should enable you to have the  
system operational within a minimum amount of time. This quick setup assumes  
that your system has come to you with the processors and memory preinstalled. If  
your system is not already fully integrated with a serverboard, processors, system  
memory etc., please turn to the chapter or section noted in each step for details on  
installing specic components.  
2-2 Unpacking the System  
You should inspect the box the system was shipped in and note if it was damaged  
in any way. If the server itself shows damage you should le a damage claim with  
the carrier who delivered it.  
Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold the server. It should  
be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas where  
heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic elds are generated. You will also need  
it placed near a grounded power outlet. Read the Rack and Server Precautions in  
the next section.  
2-3 Preparing for Setup  
The box the server was shipped in should include two sets of rail assemblies, two  
rail mounting brackets and the mounting screws you will need to install the system  
into the rack. Follow the steps in the order given to complete the installation process  
in a minimum amount of time. Please read this section in its entirety before you  
begin the installation procedure outlined in the sections that follow.  
Choosing a Setup Location  
Leave enough clearance in front of the rack to enable you to open the front door  
completely (~25 inches) and approximately 30 inches of clearance in the back  
of the rack to allow for sufcient airow and ease in servicing.This product is for  
installation only in a Restricted Access Location (dedicated equipment rooms,  
service closets and the like).

SUPERSERVER 6016XT-TF/6016GT-TF/TF-TM2/TF-TC2 User's Manual  
This product is not suitable for use with visual display work place devices  
acccording to §2 of the the German Ordinance for Work with Visual Display Units.  
2-4 Warnings and Precautions  
Rack Precautions  
Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully extended to  
the oor with the full weight of the rack resting on them.  
In single rack installation, stabilizers should be attached to the rack. In multiple  
rack installations, the racks should be coupled together.  
Always make sure the rack is stable before extending a component from the  
rack.  
You should extend only one component at a time - extending two or more si-  
multaneously may cause the rack to become unstable.  
Rack-mounted equipment should not be used as a shelf or work space.  
Server Precautions  
Review the electrical and general safety precautions in Chapter 4.  
Determine the placement of each component in the rack before you install the  
rails.  
Install the heaviest server components on the bottom of the rack rst, and then  
work up.  
Use a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect the server from  
power surges, voltage spikes and to keep your system operating in case of a  
power failure.  
Allow the hot plug SATA drives and power supply modules to cool before touch-  
ing them.  
Always keep the rack's front door and all panels and components on the servers  
closed when not servicing to maintain proper cooling.

Chapter 2: Server Installation  
Rack Mounting Considerations  
Ambient Operating Temperature  
If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the ambient operating tempera-  
ture of the rack environment may be greater than the ambient temperature of the  
room. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an  
environment compatible with the manufacturer’s maximum rated ambient tempera-  
ture (Tmra).  
Reduced Airow  
Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that the amount of airow required  
for safe operation is not compromised.  
Mechanical Loading  
Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that a hazardous condition does not  
arise due to uneven mechanical loading.  
Circuit Overloading  
Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the power  
supply circuitry and the effect that any possible overloading of circuits might have  
on overcurrent protection and power supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of  
equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.  
Reliable Ground  
A reliable ground must be maintained at all times. To ensure this, the rack itself  
should be grounded. Particular attention should be given to power supply connec-  
tions other than the direct connections to the branch circuit (i.e. the use of power  
strips, etc.).

2-4 Installing the System into a Rack  
This section provides information on installing the SC818G chassis into a rack unit  
with the rails provided. There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may  
mean that the assembly procedure will differ slightly. You should also refer to the  
installation instructions that came with the rack unit you are using.  
Note: This rail will t a rack between 26" and 33.5" deep.  
Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails  
The server includes two rack rail assemblies in the rack mounting kit. Each assembly  
consists of two sections: an inner xed chassis rail that secures directly to the server  
chassis and an outer xed rack rail that secures directly to the rack itself.  
Warning! To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a  
rack, you must take special precautions to ensure that the system remains  
stable. The following guidelines are provided to ensure your safety:  
This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in  
the rack.  
When mounting this unit in a partially lled rack, load the rack from the bottom  
to the top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.  
If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before  
mounting or servicing the unit in the rack.

Chapter 2: Server Installation  
Installing the Inner Rail Extensions  
The SC818G chassis includes a set of inner rack rails in two sections: inner rails (A)  
and inner rail extensions (B). The inner rails are preattached and do not interfere  
with normal use of the chassis if you decide not to install to a server rack. Attaching  
the inner rail extensions to to the inner rails stabilizes the chassis within the rack.  
Installing the Inner Rail Extensions  
1. Place the inner rail extensions (B) over the preattached inner rails (A) which  
are attached to the side of the chassis. Align the hooks of the inner rail with  
the rail extension holes. Make sure the extension faces "outward" just like the  
inner rail.  
2. Slide the extension toward the front of the chassis.  
3. Secure the chassis with screws as illustrated.  
4. Repeat steps 1-3 for the other inner rail extension.

Installing the Chassis into a Rack (Figure 2-5)  
1. Conrm that chassis includes the inner rails and rail extensions . Also, conrm  
that the outer rails are installed on the rack.  
2. Line chassis rails with the front of the rack rails.  
3. Slide the chassis rails into the rack rails, keeping the pressure even on both  
sides (you may have to depress the locking tabs when inserting). When the  
server has been pushed completely into the rack, you should hear the locking  
tabs "click".  
4. (Optional) Insert and tightening the thumbscrews that hold the front of the  
server to the rack.  
Warning: do not pick up the server with the front handles. They are de-  
signed to pull the system from a rack only.

Chapter 2: Server Installation  
Installing the Server into a Telco Rack  
Optional brackets (p/n MCP-290-00016-0N) are needed to install the server to a  
telco (open type) rack.  
To install the server into a Telco type rack, use the two L-shaped brackets on either  
side of the chassis (four total). First, determine how far follow the server will extend  
out the front of the rack. Larger chassis should be positioned to balance the weight  
between front and back. If a bezel is included on your server, remove it. Then at-  
tach the two front brackets to each side of the chassis, then the two rear brackets  
positioned with just enough space to accommodate the width of the telco rack. Finish  
by sliding the chassis into the rack and tightening the brackets to the rack.  
Stability hazard. The rack stabilizing mechanism must be in place, or the  
rack must be bolted to the oor before you slide the unit out for servicing.  
Failure to stabilize the rack can cause the rack to tip over.

2-5 Checking the Serverboard Setup  
After you install the server in the rack, you will need to open the unit to make sure  
the serverboard is properly installed and all the connections have been made.  
Removing the Chassis Cover (Figure 2-7)  
1. Remove the three screws securing the top cover to the chassis.  
2. Press both of the release tabs at the same time to release the cover  
3. Slide the cover toward the rear of the chassis.  
4. Lift the cover up and off of the chassis.  
Warning: Except for short periods of time, do NOT operate the server  
without the cover in place. The chassis cover must be in place to allow  
!
proper airow and prevent overheating.

Chapter 2: Server Installation  
Checking the Components  
1. You may have processors already installed to the serverboard. Each proces-  
sor needs its own heatsink. See Chapter 5 for instructions on processor and  
heatsink installation.  
2. Your server system may have come with system memory already installed.  
Make sure all DIMMs are fully seated in their slots. For details on adding  
system memory, refer to Chapter 5.  
3. If desired, you can install add-on cards to the system. See Chapter 5 for  
details on installing PCI add-on cards.  
4. Make sure all power and data cables are properly connected and not block-  
ing the chassis airow. See Chapter 5 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 serverboard area of the chassis.  
2-6 Checking the Drive Bay Setup  
Next, you should check to make sure the hard drives have been properly installed  
and all connections have been made.  
Checking the Drives  
1. For servicing the hard drives, you will need to remove the top chassis cover.  
2. If you need to remove or install hard drives, please refer to Chapter 6.  
Checking the Airow  
1. Airow is provided by 4-cm counter-rotating fans. The system component  
layout was carefully designed to direct sufcient cooling airow to the compo-  
nents that generate the most heat.  
2. Note that all power and data cables have been routed in such a way that they  
do not block the airow generated by the fans.

Providing Power  
1. The last thing you must do is to provide input power to the system. Plug the  
power cord from the power supply unit into a high-quality power strip that of-  
fers protection from electrical noise and power surges. It is recommended that  
you use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).  
2. Finish by depressing the power button on the chassis control panel.

System Interface  
3-1 Overview  
There are several LEDs on the control panel as well as others on the drive car-  
riers to keep you constantly informed of the overall status of the system as well  
as the activity and health of specic components. There are also two buttons on  
the chassis control panel and an on/off switch on the power supply. This chapter  
explains the meanings of all LED indicators and the appropriate response you may  
need to take.  
3-2 Control Panel Buttons  
There are two push-buttons located on the front of the chassis: a reset button and  
a power on/off button.  
Reset  
Use the reset button to reboot the system.  
Power  
The main power button is used to apply or remove power from the power supply  
to the server system. Turning off system power with this button removes the main  
power but keeps standby power supplied to the system.

3-3 Control Panel LEDs  
The control panel located on the front of the SC818GTQ chassis has ve LEDs.  
These LEDs provide you with critical information related to different parts of the  
system. This section explains what each LED indicates when illuminated and any  
corrective action you may need to take.  
Universal Information LED  
When this LED blinks red quickly, it indicates a fan failure. This LED will be blue  
when used for UID (Unit Identier). When on continuously it indicates an overheat  
condition, which may be caused by cables obstructing the airow in the system or  
the ambient room temperature being too warm. Check the routing of the cables and  
make sure all fans are present and operating normally. You should also check to  
make sure that the chassis covers are installed. Finally, verify that the heatsinks are  
installed properly (see Chapter 5). This LED will remain ashing or on as long as the  
indicated condition exists. See the table below for descriptions of the LED states.

Advanced Serverboard Setup  
This chapter covers the steps required to install the X8DTG-DF serverboard into the  
chassis, connect the data and power cables and install add-on cards. All serverboard  
jumpers and connections are also described. A layout and quick reference chart  
are included in this chapter for your reference. Remember to completely close the  
chassis when you have nished working with the serverboard to better cool and  
protect the system.  
5-1 Handling the Serverboard  
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. To prevent dam-  
age to any printed circuit boards (PCBs), it is important to handle them very carefully  
(see previous chapter). To prevent the serverboard from bending, keep one hand  
under the center of the board to support it when handling. The following measures  
are generally sufcient to protect your equipment from electric static discharge.  
Precautions  
Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent Electrostatic Discharge  
(ESD).  
Touch a grounded metal object before removing any board from its antistatic  
bag.  
Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral chips,  
memory modules or gold contacts.  
When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.  
Put the serverboard, add-on cards and peripherals back into their antistatic  
bags when not in use.  
For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides excellent  
conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting fasteners and  
the serverboard.

Unpacking  
The serverboard is shipped in antistatic packaging to avoid electrical static dis-  
charge. When unpacking the board, make sure the person handling it is static  
protected.  
5-2 Serverboard Installation  
This section explains the rst step of physically mounting the X8DTG-DF into the  
SC818GTQ-1400 chassis. Following the steps in the order given will eliminate  
the most common problems encountered in such an installation. To remove the  
serverboard, follow the procedure in reverse order.  
Installing to the Chassis  
1. Access the inside of the system by removing the screws from the back lip of  
the top cover of the chassis, then pull the cover off.  
2. Make sure that the I/O ports on the serverboard align properly with their  
respective holes in the I/O shield at the back of the chassis.  
3. Carefully mount the serverboard to the serverboard tray by aligning the board  
holes with the raised metal standoffs that are visible in the chassis.  
4. Insert screws into all the mounting holes on your serverboard that line up  
with the standoffs and tighten until snug (if you screw them in too tight, you  
might strip the threads). Metal screws provide an electrical contact to the  
serverboard ground to provide a continuous ground for the system.  
5. Finish by replacing the top cover of the chassis.  
Warning: To avoid damaging the serverboard and its components, do not apply  
any force greater than 8 lbs. per square inch when installing a screw into a mount-  
ing hole.

Chapter 5: Advanced Serverboard Setup  
5-3 Connecting Cables  
Now that the serverboard is installed, the next step is to connect the cables to the  
board. These include the data (ribbon) cables for the peripherals and control panel  
and the power cables.  
Connecting Data Cables  
The ribbon cables used to transfer data from the peripheral devices have been care-  
fully routed to prevent them from blocking the ow of cooling air that moves through  
the system from front to back. If you need to disconnect any of these cables, you  
should take care to keep them routed as they were originally after reconnecting  
them (make sure the red wires connect to the pin 1 locations). The following data  
cables (with their locations noted) should be connected. (See the layout on page  
5-9 for connector locations.)  
SATA drive data cable (SATA1 ~ 3)  
SGPIO cable (T-SGPIO-0)  
Control Panel cable (JF1)  
GPU power cables (JPW2, JPW3 - 6016GT series only)  
Important! Make sure the the cables do not come into contact with the fans.  
Connecting Power Cables  
The X8DTG-DF has a 20-pin proprietary power supply connector (JPW1) for con-  
nection to the ATX power supply. In addition, there are two 8-pin secondary power  
connectors (JPW2, JPW3) that also must be connected to your power supply. See  
Section 5-9 for power connector pin denitions.  
Connecting the Control Panel  
JF1 contains header pins for various front control panel connectors. See Figure 5-1  
for the pin locations of the various front control panel buttons and LED indicators.  
All JF1 wires have been bundled into a single ribbon cable to simplify this connec-  
tion. Make sure the red wire plugs into pin 1 as marked on the board. The other  
end connects to the Control Panel PCB board, located just behind the system status  
LEDs on the chassis. See Chapter 5 for details and pin descriptions.

5-5 Installing the Processor and Heatsink  
Warning! Avoid placing direct pressure to the top of the processor package. Always  
remove the power cord rst before adding, removing or changing any hardware com-  
ponents.  
Notes:  
Always connect the power cord last and always remove it before adding, re-  
moving or changing any hardware components. Make sure that you install the  
processor into the CPU socket before you install the CPU heatsink.  
If you buy a CPU separately, make sure that you use an Intel-certied multi-  
directional heatsink only.  
Make sure to install the serverboard into the chassis before you install the CPU  
heatsinks.  
When receiving a serverboard without a processor pre-installed, make sure that  
the plastic CPU socket cap is in place and none of the socket pins are bent;  
otherwise, contact your retailer immediately.  
Refer to the Supermicro web site for updates on CPU support.  
Installing an LGA1366 Processor  
1. Press the socket clip to release  
the load plate, which covers the

Installing a CPU Heatsink  
1. Remove power from the system  
and unplug the AC power cord  
from the power supply.  
2. Do not apply any thermal grease  
to the heatsink or the CPU die;  
the required amount has already  
been applied.  
3. Place the heatsink on top of the  
CPU so that the four mounting  
holes are aligned with those on  
the (preinstalled) heatsink reten-  
tion mechanism.  
4. Screw in two diagonal screws (i.e.  
the #1 and the #2 screws) until  
just snug. Do not fully tighten the  
screws or you may damage the  
CPU.)  
5. Add the two remaining screws  
then nish the installation by fully  
tightening all four screws.  
Removing the Heatsink  
1. Unscrew and remove the heatsink screws from the serverboard in the sequence  
as show in the picture above.  
2. Hold the heatsink and gently wriggle the heatsink to loosen it from the CPU. (Do  
not use excessive force when wriggling the heatsink!!)  
3. Once the heatsink is loose, remove it from the CPU socket.  
4. Clean the surface of the CPU and the heatsink to get rid of the old thermal  
grease. Reapply the proper amount of thermal grease on the surface before you  
re-install a heatsink.  
Note: see Chapter 6 for details on installing the air shroud.

5-6 Installing Memory  
CAUTION! Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM modules to  
prevent any possible damage.  
Memory Support  
The X8DTG-DF supports up to 192 GB of registered ECC or up to 48 GB of unbuf-  
fered ECC/non-ECC DDR3-1333/1066/800 MHz SDRAM in 12 DIMM slots. See the  
following table for memory installation.  
Notes: With unbuffered ECC/non-ECC memory, 2 GB is the maximum DIMM size  
that can be supported per slot.  
Memory speed support is dependent on the type of CPU used on the board.  
Installing Memory Modules  
1. Insert the desired number of DIMMs into the memory slots, starting with  
P1-DIMM 1A. For best memory performance, please install memory modules  
of the same type and same speed on the memory slots as indicated on the  
tables below.  
2. Insert each DIMM module vertically into its slot. Pay attention to the notch  
along the bottom of the module to avoid installing incorrectly (see Figure 5-4).  
3. Gently press down on the DIMM module until it snaps into place in the slot.  
Repeat for all modules.

5-6 Adding PCI Add-On Cards  
The 6016XT-TF (without GPUs installed) can support four full size PCI-E x8 cards in  
the x16 slots and (with a riser card) one low-prole PCI-E x4 card in a x16 slot.  
The 6016GT series servers can (in addition to two NVIDIA Tesla GPU cards) sup-  
port one low-prole PCI-Express 2.0 x4 card via a riser card installed in the PCI-E  
x16 slot.  
Installing an Add-on Card  
1. Begin by removing the PCI slot shield for the slot you wish to populate.  
2. Fully seat the card into the riser card, pushing down with your thumbs evenly  
on both sides of the card.  
3. Finish by using a screw to secure the top of the card shield to the chassis.  
The PCI slot shields protect the serverboard and its components from EMI  
and aid in proper ventilation, so make sure there is always a shield covering  
each unused slot.

Fan Headers  
The X8DTG-DF has eight chassis/system  
fan headers (Fan1 to Fan8). All these 4-pin  
fans headers are backward compatible  
with the traditional 3-pin fans. Fan speed  
control is available for 4-pin fans but not  
supported by 3-pin fans. The fan speeds  
are controlled by Thermal Management  
via Hardware Monitoring in the Advanced  
Setting in the BIOS. (The Default setting  
is disabled.) See the table on the right for

5-9 Jumper Settings  
Explanation of Jumpers  
To modify the operation of the  
serverboard, jumpers can be used  
to choose between optional settings.  
Jumpers create shorts between two  
pins to change the function of the con-  
nector. Pin 1 is identied with a square  
solder pad on the printed circuit board.  
See the serverboard layout pages for  
jumper locations.

only one pin or completely removed.  
CMOS Clear  
JBT1 is used to clear CMOS (which will also clear any passwords). Instead of pins,  
this jumper consists of contact pads to prevent accidentally clearing the contents  
of CMOS.  
To clear CMOS,  
1. First power down the system and unplug the power cord(s).  
2. With the power disconnected, short the CMOS pads with a metal object such  
as a small screwdriver.  
3. Remove the screwdriver (or shorting device).  
4. Reconnect the power cord(s) and power on the system.  
Note: Do not use the PW_ON connector to clear CMOS.

red LED is off, the blue UID_LED can be  
on or off.) In other words, the red LED  
signal overwrites the blue UID_LED signal  
if J_UID-OW is set to off. When the jumper  
J_UID_OW is Closed, the red LED and

Advanced Chassis Setup  
This chapter covers the steps required to install components and perform mainte-  
nance on the SC818GTQ chassis. For component installation, follow the steps in  
the order given to eliminate the most common problems encountered. If some steps  
are unnecessary, skip ahead to the next step.  
Tools Required: The only tool you will need to install components and perform  
maintenance is a Philips screwdriver.  
6-1 Static-Sensitive Devices  
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. To prevent  
damage to any printed circuit boards (PCBs), it is important to handle them very  
carefully.  
The following measures are generally sufcient to protect your equipment from  
ESD damage.  
Precautions  
Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.  
Touch a grounded metal object before removing any board from its antistatic  
bag.  
Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral chips,  
memory modules or gold contacts.  
When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.  
Put the serverboard, add-on cards and peripherals back into their antistatic  
bags when not in use.  
For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides excellent  
conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting fasteners and  
the serverboard.

6-2 Control Panel  
The control panel (located on the front of the chassis) must be connected to the  
JF1 connector on the serverboard to provide you with system status indications. A  
ribbon cable has bundled these wires together to simplify the connection. Connect  
the cable from JF1 on the serverboard to the appropriate header on the Control  
Panel PCB (printed circuit board). Make sure the red wire plugs into pin 1 on both  
connectors. Pull all excess cabling out of the airow path.  
The control panel LEDs inform you of system status. See "Chapter 3: System In-  
terface" for details on the LEDs and the control panel buttons. Details on JF1 can  
be found in "Chapter 5: Advanced Serverboard Installation."  
6-3 System Cooling  
Eight 4-cm counter-rotating fans provide the cooling for the system. Each fan unit is  
actually made up of two fans joined back-to-back, which rotate in opposite directions.  
This counter-rotating action generates exceptional airow and works to dampen  
vibration levels. The SC818GTQ chassis provides two additional open fan housings,  
where an additional system fan may be added for optimal cooling.  
It is very important that the chassis top cover is properly installed and making a  
good seal in order for the cooling air to circulate properly through the chassis and  
cool the components. See Figure 6-2.

Chapter 6: Advanced Chassis Setup  
System Fan Failure  
Fan speed is controlled by system temperature via a BIOS setting. If a fan fails,  
the remaining fans will ramp up to full speed. Replace any failed fan at your earli-  
est convenience with the same type and model (the system can continue to run  
with a failed fan).  
Replacing a System Fan (Figure 6-2)  
1. If the BIOS is not being utilized to determine which fan has failed, open the  
top cover of the chassis while the system is running to locate the position of  
the failed fan. Never run the server for an extended period of time with the  
top cover open.  
2. Turn off the power to the system and unplug the AC power cord.  
3. Remove the failed fan's wiring from the backplane.  
4. Remove the four pins securing the fan to the fan tray.  
5. Lift the failed fan from the fan tray and out of the chassis.  
6. Place the new fan into the vacant space in the fan tray, while making sure the  
arrows on the top of the fan (indicating air direction) point in the same direc-  
tion as the arrows on the other fans in the same fan tray.  
7. Reconnect the fan wires to the exact same chassis fan headers as the previ-  
ous fan.  
8. Reconnect the AC power cord, power up the system and check that the fan is  
working properly before replacing the chassis cover.

Proceed to the next section for instructions.  
Peripheral Drives: The SC818GTQ chassis includes space for a variety of peripheral  
drive options, including a 2.5" hard disk drive, DVD-ROM or oppy drive. For a  
complete listing of peripheral drive options, visit the Supermicro web site at:  
http://www.supermicro.com/products/chassis/1U/818/SC818G-1400.cfm  
Hard Drive Installation  
The hard drives are mounted in drive carriers to simplify their installation and  
removal from the chassis. These carriers also help promote proper airow for  
the drive bays. For this reason, even empty carriers without drives installed must  
remain in the chassis.  
Removing Hard Drive Carriers from the Chassis  
1. Press the release button on the drive carrier. This extends the drive carrier  
handle.  
2. Use the handle to pull the drive carrier out of the chassis.

To enter the AMI BIOS Setup Utility screens, press the <Delete> key while the  
system is booting up.  
Note: In most cases, the <Delete> key is used to invoke the AMI BIOS  
setup screen. There are a few cases when other keys are used, such as  
<F1>, <F2>, etc.  
Each main BIOS menu option is described in this manual. The Main BIOS setup  
menu screen has two main frames. The left frame displays all the options that can  
be congured. Grayed-out options cannot be congured. Options in blue can be  
congured by the user. The right frame displays the key legend. Above the key  
legend is an area reserved for a text message. When an option is selected in the  
left frame, it is highlighted in white. Often a text message will accompany it. (Note:  
the AMI BIOS has default text messages built in. Supermicro retains the option to  
include, omit, or change any of these text messages.)  
The AMI BIOS Setup Utility uses a key-based navigation system called "hot keys".  
Most of the AMI BIOS setup utility "hot keys" can be used at any time during the  
setup navigation process. These keys include <F1>, <F10>, <Enter>, <ESC>, ar-  
row keys, etc.  
Note: Options printed in Bold are default settings.  
How To Change the Conguration Data  
The conguration data that determines the system parameters may be changed by  
entering the AMI BIOS Setup utility. This Setup utility can be accessed by pressing  
<Del> at the appropriate time during system boot.

item as displayed.  
CPU Overheat Alarm  
This option allows the user to select the CPU Overheat Alarm setting which de-  
termines when the CPU OH alarm will be activated to provide warning of possible  
CPU overheat.  
Warning! 1.Any temperature that exceeds the CPU threshold temperature predened  
by the CPU manufacturer may result in CPU overheat or system instability. When the  
CPU temperature reaches this predened threshold, the CPU and system cooling  
fans will run at full speed. 2. To avoid possible system overheating, please be sure to  
provide adequate airow to your system.  
The options are:  
The Early Alarm: Select this setting if you want the CPU overheat alarm (includ-  
ing the LED and the buzzer) to be triggered as soon as the CPU temperature  
reaches the CPU overheat threshold as predened by the CPU manufacturer.  
The Default Alarm: Select this setting if you want the CPU overheat alarm  
(including the LED and the buzzer) to be triggered when the CPU temperature  
reaches about 5oC above the threshold temperature as predened by the CPU  
manufacturer to give the CPU and system fans additional time needed for CPU  
and system cooling. In both the alarms above, please take immediate action  
as shown below.  
CPU Temperature/System Temperature  
This feature displays current temperature readings for the CPU and the System.  
The following items will be displayed for your reference only:  
CPU Temperature  
The CPU thermal technology that reports absolute temperatures (Celsius/Fahr-  
enheit) has been upgraded to a more advanced feature by Intel in its newer  
processors. The basic concept is each CPU is embedded by unique temperature  
information that the motherboard can read. This ‘Temperature Threshold’ or ‘Tem-  
perature Tolerance’ has been assigned at the factory and is the baseline on which  
the motherboard takes action during different CPU temperature conditions (i.e., by  
increasing CPU Fan speed, triggering the Overheat Alarm, etc). Since CPUs can  
have different ‘Temperature Tolerances’, the installed CPU can now send informa-  
tion to the motherboard what its ‘Temperature Tolerance’ is, and not the other way  
around. This results in better CPU thermal management.

Chapter 7: BIOS  
Supermicro has leveraged this feature by assigning a temperature status to certain  
thermal conditions in the processor (Low, Medium and High). This makes it easier  
for the user to understand the CPU’s temperature status, rather than by just simply  
seeing a temperature reading (i.e., 25oC). The CPU Temperature feature will display  
the CPU temperature status as detected by the BIOS:  
Low – This level is considered as the ‘normal’ operating state. The CPU temperature  
is well below the CPU ‘Temperature Tolerance’. The motherboard fans and CPU will  
run normally as congured in the BIOS (Fan Speed Control).  
User intervention: No action required.  
Medium – The processor is running warmer. This is a ‘precautionary’ level and  
generally means that there may be factors contributing to this condition, but the CPU  
is still within its normal operating state and below the CPU ‘Temperature Tolerance’.  
The motherboard fans and CPU will run normally as congured in the BIOS. The  
fans may adjust to a faster speed depending on the Fan Speed Control settings.  
User intervention: No action is required. However, consider checking the CPU fans  
and the chassis ventilation for blockage.  
High – The processor is running hot. This is a ‘caution’ level since the CPU’s ‘Tem-  
perature Tolerance’ has been reached (or has been exceeded) and may activate  
an overheat alarm.  
User intervention: If the system buzzer and Overheat LED has activated, take action  
immediately by checking the system fans, chassis ventilation and room temperature  
to correct any problems.  
Notes: 1. The system may shut down if it continues for a long period to  
prevent damage to the CPU.  
2. The information provided above is for your reference only. For more  
information on thermal management, please refer to Intel’s Web site at  
www.Intel.com.  
System Temperature: The system temperature will be displayed (in degrees in  
Celsius and Fahrenheit) as it is detected by the BIOS.  
Fan Speed Control Monitor  
This feature allows the user to decide how the system controls the speeds of the  
onboard fans. The CPU temperature and the fan speed are correlative. When  
the CPU on-die temperature increases, the fan speed will also increase, and vice  
versa. Select Workstation if your system is used as a Workstation. Select Server if  
your system is used as a Server. Select “Disabled, (Full Speed @12V)” to disable  
the fan speed control function and allow the onboard fans to constantly run at the  
full speed (12V). The Options are: 1. Disabled (Full Speed), 2. Server Mode, 3.  
Workstation Mode.
