1-5 Returning Merchandise for Service
A receipt or copy of your invoice marked with the date of purchase is required before any warranty service will be rendered. You can obtain service by calling your
vendor for a Returned Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number. When returning to
the manufacturer, the RMA number should be prominently displayed on the outside
of the shipping carton, and mailed prepaid or hand-carried. Shipping and handling
charges will be applied for all orders that must be mailed when service is complete.
For faster service, RMA authorizations may be requested online (http://www.
supermicro.com/support/rma/).
Whenever possible, repack the chassis in the original Supermicro carton, using the
original packaging material. If these are no longer available, be sure to pack the
chassis securely, using packaging material to surround the chassis so that it does
not shift within the carton and become damaged during shipping.
This warranty only covers normal consumer use and does not cover damages incurred in shipping or from failure due to the alteration, misuse, abuse or improper
maintenance of products.
During the warranty period, contact your distributor first for any product problems.

System Interface
4-1Overview
There are LEDs on the control panel and on the drive carriers to keep you constantly
informed of the overall status of the system, as well as the activity and health of
specific components. Most SC836 models have two buttons on the chassis control
panel- a reset button and an on/off switch. This chapter explains the meanings of
all LED indicators and the appropriate responses you may need to take.

4-1
SC836 Chassis Manual
4-2 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: The reset button is used to reboot the system.
Power: The main power switch 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. Therefore, you
must unplug system before servicing.
4-3 Control Panel LEDs
The control panel is located on the front of the SC836 chassis and has six 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 actions you may need to take.
!
Power Failure: When this LED flashes, it indicates a power failure in the power
supply.
4-2
Chapter 4: System Interface
Overheat/Fan Fail: When this LED flashes it indicates a fan failure. When continuously on (not flashing) it indicates an overheat condition, which may be caused by
cables obstructing the airflow 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. This LED will
remain flashing or on as long as the overheat condition exists.
NIC2: Indicates network activity on LAN2 when flashing.
NIC1: Indicates network activity on LAN1 when flashing.
HDD: Indicates IDE channel activity. SAS/SATA drive and/or DVD-ROM drive
activity when flashing.
Power: Indicates power is being supplied to the system's power supply units. This
LED should normally be illuminated when the system is operating.
4-3
SC836 Chassis Manual
4-4 Drive Carrier LEDs
Each drive carrier has two LEDs.
•Blue: When illuminated, this blue LED (on the front of the drive carrier) indicates drive activity. A connection to the backplane enables this LED to blink
on and off when that particular drive is being accessed.
•Red: The red LED to indicate a drive failure. If one of the drives fail, you should
be refer to your system management software.

5-5 Installing the Motherboard
Permanent and Optional Standoffs
Standoffs prevent short circuits by creating space between the motherboard and
the chassis surface. The SC836 chassis includes permanent standoffs in locations
used by most motherboards. These standoffs accept the rounded Phillips head
screws included in the SC836 accessories packaging.
Some motherboard require additional screws for heatsinks, general components
and/or non-standard securing within the chassis. Optional standoffs are included to
these motherboards. To use an optional standoff, you must place it into the desired
position in the chassis and secure it with a screw.
Standoffs Labeling
Standoff locations are labeled on the bottom of the SC836 chassis with the letters:
P, D, and A.
P = Most compatible motherboards have a processor or CPU located here. If necessary, place standoffs here for the CPU's heatsink.
D = Place optional standoffs here if your motherboard requires additional posts to
hold the unit in place.
A = A number of older motherboards have processors or CPUs located in areas
designated "A". Place standoffs here for the CPU's heatsink.
Motherboard Installation
Installing the Motherboard
1. Review the documentation that came with your motherboard. Become familiar
with component placement, requirements, and precautions.
2. Power down the system, remove the power cord from the rear of the power

Chapter 7: Rack Installation
Chapter 7
Rack Installation
7-1Overview
This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your chassis up and running.
Following these steps in the order given should enable you to have the system
operational within a minimal amount of time.
7-2 Unpacking the System
You should inspect the box which the chassis was shipped in and note if it was
damaged in any way. If the chassis itself shows damage, you should file a damage
claim with the carrier who delivered it.
Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold your chassis. It should
be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas where
heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic fields are generated. The system needs
to be placed near a grounded power outlet. Be sure to read the Rack and Server
Precautions in the next section.
7-3 Preparing for Setup
The box your chassis was shipped in should include two sets of rail assemblies and
the mounting screws needed for installing the system into the rack. Also included
is an optional square hole to round hole converter bracket, for use in racks with
round mounting holes. 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).
•Leave approximately 30 inches of clearance in the back of the rack to allow for
sufficient airflow and ease in servicing.
•This product is for installation only in a Restricted Access Location (dedicated
equipment rooms, service closets and the like).
7-1
SC836 Chassis Manual
7-4 Warnings and Precautions
Rack Precautions
•Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully extended to
the floor with the full weight of the rack resting on them.
•In single rack installations, stabilizers should be attached to the rack.
•In multiple rack installations, the racks should be coupled together.
•Always make sure that the rack is stable before extending a component from
the rack.
•You should extend only one component at a time - extending two or more simultaneously may cause the rack to become unstable.
General Server Precautions
•Review the electrical and general safety precautions that came with the components you are adding to your chassis.
•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 first, and then
work upwards.
•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 hard drives and power supply modules to cool before touching them.
•Always keep the rack's front door and all panels and components on the servers
closed when not servicing to maintain proper cooling.
7-2
Chapter 7: Rack Installation
7-5 Rack Mounting Considerations
Ambient Operating Temperature
If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the ambient operating temperature 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 temperature (TMRA).
Reduced Airflow
Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that the amount of airflow 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 connections other than the direct connections to the branch circuit (i.e. the use of power
strips, etc.).
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 filled 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.

SC836 Chassis Manual
7-6 Rack Mounting Instructions
This section provides information on installing the 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 from the instructions provided. You
should also refer to the installation instructions that came with the rack unit you are
using. NOTE: This rail will fit a rack between 26.5" and 36.4" deep.
Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails
The chassis package includes two rail assemblies in the rack mounting kit. Each
assembly consists of three sections: An inner chassis rail which secures directly to
the chassis, an outer rail that secures to the rack, and a middle rail which extends
from the outer rail. These assemblies are specifically designed for the left and right
side of the chassis.

Although Supermicro chassis are designed with to be efficient and cost-effective,
some compatible motherboards have power connectors located in different areas.
To use these motherboards you may have to extend the power cables to the mother
boards. To do this, use the following chart as a guide.

To avoid personal injury and property damage, carefully follow all the safety steps
listed below when accessing your system or handling the components.
C-1 ESD Safety Guidelines
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic com­ponents. To prevent damage to your system, it is important to handle it very carefully. The following measures
are generally sufficient to protect your equipment from ESD.
•Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
•Touch a grounded metal object before removing a component from the antistatic
bag.
•Handle the backplane 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 backplane and peripherals back into their antistatic bags when not in
use.
C-2 General Safety Guidelines
•Always disconnect power cables before installing or removing any components
from the computer, including the backplane.
•Disconnect the power cable before installing or removing any cables from the
backplane.
•Make sure that the backplane is securely and properly installed on the motherboard to prevent damage to the system due to power shortage.

Appendix C BPN-SAS2-836EL Backplane Specifications
Explanation of Jumpers
To modify the operation of the backplane,
jumpers can be used to choose between
optional settings. Jumpers create shorts
between two pins to change the function
of the connector. Pin 1 is identified with
a square solder pad on the printed circuit
board. Note: On two pin jumpers, "Closed"
means the jumper is on and "Open" means
the jumper is off the pins.

Appendix C BPN-SAS2-836EL Backplane Specifications
C-12Failover with RAID Cards and Multiple HBAs
The BPN-SAS2-836EL backplane may be configured for failover with multiple HBAs
using either RAID controllers or HBAs to achieve failover protection.
RAID Controllers: If RAID controllers are used, the failover is accomplished through
port failover on the same RAID card.
HBAs: If multiple HBAs are used to achieve failover protection and load balancing,
Linux MPIO software must be installed and correctly configured to perform
the load balancing and failover tasks.
Dual Host Bus Adapter
In a dual host bus configuration, the
backplane connects to two HBAs.

C-22
Appendix C BPN-SAS2-836EL Backplane Specifications
C-14 Supported Cascading Configurations
Cascading allows the system to access data at a faster rate by allowing several
backplanes to share resources to reduce latency time.
The first backplane in a cascaded system requires a motherboard and an HBA.
Other servers require a power control card but with no motherboard and no HBA.

To avoid personal injury and property damage, carefully follow all the safety steps
listed below when accessing your system or handling the components.
D-1 ESD Safety Guidelines
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic com­ponents. To prevent damage to your system, it is important to handle it very carefully. The following measures
are generally sufficient to protect your equipment from ESD.
Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
•
•Touch a grounded metal object before removing a component from the antistatic
bag.
•Handle the backplane 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 card and peripherals back into their antistatic bags when not in use.
D-2 General Safety Guidelines
•Always disconnect power cables before installing or removing any components
from the computer, including this backplane.
•Disconnect the power cable before installing or removing any cables from this
backplane.
•Make sure that the backplane is securely and properly installed on the motherboard to prevent damage to the system due to power shortage.

#1. Activity LED Header
The activity LED headers, designated JP26
and JP47, are used to indicate the activity
status of each SAS drive. These activity LED
headers are used by the host controller for
the SATA drives that previously had no activity status output. If using a SAS drive, and
for most SATA drives, these activity headers
are not required.The Activity LED Header is
located on the front panel. For the Activity
LED Header to work properly, connect using a
10-pin LED cable.

Explanation of Jumpers
To modify the operation of the backplane,
jumpers can be used to choose between
optional settings. Jumpers create shorts
between two pins to change the function
of the connector. Pin 1 is identified with
a square solder pad on the printed circuit
board.

#1 - #2. Activity LED Header
The activity LED headers, designated JP26
and JP47, are used to indicate the activity
status of each SAS drive. These activity LED
headers are used by the host controller for
the SATA drives that previously had no activity status output. If using a SAS drive, and
for most SATA drives, these activity headers
are not required.The Activity LED Header is
located on the front panel. For the Activity
LED Header to work properly, connect using a
10-pin LED cable.

To avoid personal injury and property damage, carefully follow all the safety steps
listed below when accessing your system or handling the components.
F-1 ESD Safety Guidelines
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic com­ponents. To prevent damage to your system, it is important to handle it very carefully. The following measures
are generally sufficient to protect your equipment from ESD.
•Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
•Touch a grounded metal object before removing a component from the antistatic
bag.
•Handle the card 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 card and peripherals back into their antistatic bags when not in use.
F-1
SC836 Chassis Manual
F-2 General Safety Guidelines
•Always disconnect power cables before installing or removing any components
from the computer.
•Disconnect the power cable before installing or removing any cables from the
card.
•Make sure that the card is securely and properly installed on the motherboard
to prevent damage to the system due to power shortage.
F-3 An Important Note to Users
•All images and layouts shown in this user's guide are based upon the latest PCB
