Servers¶
The Volicon Observer runs on servers from SuperMicro and comes in 1RU, 2RU, 3RU, and 4RU versions. Each SuperMicro chassis features a unique and highly- optimized design. All chassis are equipped with a redundant high-efficiency power supply, along with high-performance fans that provide ample optimized cooling.
The server relies on the building’s installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Ensure that the protective device is rated not greater than: 250 V, 20 A.
Server Installation¶
Ensure that the server is completely de-energized before you access the chassis interior to install or remove system components. Disconnect the power cord from the power supply module before you open the chassis. If your server has more than one power supply, be sure to disconnect all power cords.
Follow the installation instructions that came with your server.
