Installing the Supercapacitor

Procedure

1. Power off the server.

   For details, see Power-Off Procedure.

2. Remove the power cables from the PSUs.

   For details, see Removing PSU Cables.

3. Remove the server.

   For details, see Removing a 2488H V5.

4. Place the server on the ESD workstation.
5. Remove the chassis cover.

   For details, see Removing the Chassis Cover.

6. Take the component out of its ESD bag.
7. Determine the position of the supercapacitor.
   • If the server is configured with two processors, install the supercapacitor on the air duct or mainboard.
     Figure 8-90 Positions of the supercapacitors (two processors)
     
   • If the server is configured with four processors, install the supercapacitor on the mainboard or the side wall of the PSU.
     Figure 8-91 Positions of the supercapacitors (four processors)
     

8. Install the supercapacitor and its holder.
   • Supercapacitor on the air duct
     1. Insert the supercapacitor into the holder until the supercapacitor is locked.
        Figure 8-92 Installing a supercapacitor
        
     2. secure the supercapacitor and its holder to the air duct.
        Figure 8-93 Installing a supercapacitor holder on the air duct
        
   • Supercapacitor on the side wall of the PSU
     1. Insert the supercapacitor into the holder until the supercapacitor is locked.
        Figure 8-94 Installing a supercapacitor
        
     2. hitch the supercapacitor holder, and move it downwards as far as it will go.

   • Supercapacitor on the mainboard
     1. Place the supercapacitor holder vertically on the mainboard. See (1) in Figure 8-96.
     2. Align the screws of the supercapacitor holder with the screw holes on the mainboard, and tighten the screws. See (2) in Figure 8-96.

9. Check whether the supercapacitor is configured with a TFM.
   • If yes, go to 10.
   • If no, go to 11.

10. Install the TFM.
    1. Remove the PCIe RAID controller card.

       For details, see Removing the PCIe RAID Controller Card.

    2. Insert the TFM into the PCIe RAID controller card. See (1) in Figure 8-98.
    3. Tighten the screws to secure the TFM. See (2) in Figure 8-98.

    4. Install the PCIe RAID controller card.

       For details, see Installing the PCIe RAID Controller Card.

    5. Go to 12.

11. Connect the cable between the supercapacitor and the PCIe RAID controller card.

    If the gap is too small, remove the PCIe RAID controller card and then connect the cable. For details about how to remove and install a PCIe RAID controller card, see Removing the PCIe RAID Controller Card or Installing the PCIe RAID Controller Card.

12. Install the chassis cover.

    For details, see Installing the Chassis Cover.

13. Install the server.

    For details, see Installing a Server.

14. Connect the power cables to the PSUs.

    For details, see Connecting PSU Cables.

15. Power on the server.

    For details, see Power-On Procedure.

16. Log in to the iBMC WebUI, and check whether the new component is normal.

    For details, see FusionServer Pro Rack Server iBMC User Guide.
