System Features
This section describes the major hardware and software features of your
system. It also provides information about other documents you may need
when setting up your system and how to obtain technical assistance.
System Enclosure Features
The M1000e system enclosure (chassis) includes the following features:
Scalability Features
• Support for up to 16 half-height or 8 full-height blades (server modules).
• Support for three layers of I/O fabric, selectable between combinations
of Ethernet, Infiniband, and Fibre Channel modules.
Up to six I/O modules may be installed in the enclosure, chosen from Fibre
Channel switches, Fibre Channel passthroughs, Infiniband switches,
Ethernet switches, and Ethernet passthrough modules.
Reliability Features
• Nine redundant, hot-pluggable system fan modules.
• Three 2360-watt, hot-pluggable power supplies and three power supply
blanks, or six 2360-watt, hot-pluggable power supplies. (Three power
supplies provide power to the system; adding three additional power
supplies provides 3+3 redundancy.)
NOTICE: Power supplies can only connect to a power distribution unit (PDU).
They cannot connect directly to an electrical outlet.
NOTICE: The system enclosure requires a 200-240V power source.
4 Getting Started With Your System
Systems Management Features
• A Chassis Management Controller (CMC), which provides several
essential systems management features:
– Enclosure-level power management and thermal management:
• The CMC monitors system power requirements and supports the
optional Dynamic Power Supply Engagement mode so that the
CMC can enable or place power supplies in standby dynamically,
depending on load and redundancy requirements, to improve
power efficiency.
• The CMC reports real-time power consumption.
• The CMC supports an optional power ceiling, which will either
trigger an alert or actions to keep the enclosure power
consumption under the predefined ceiling.
• The CMC monitors and controls cooling fans based on actual
ambient and internal temperature measurements.
– The CMC provides comprehensive enclosure inventory and
status/error reporting.
– The CMC allows centralized configuration of the following settings:
• The CMC’s network and security settings
• Power redundancy and power ceiling settings
• I/O switches and iDRAC network settings
• First boot device on the blades
– The CMC will check I/O fabric consistency between the I/O modules
and blades and will disable system components if necessary to protect
the system hardware.
– User access security.
– An SD card slot on the CMC card supports an optional persistent
WWN/MAC feature that allows slot-based WWN/MACs for the
blades, simplifying blade installation and replacement.
Getting Started With Your System 5
The CMC has two Ethernet ports. "Gb1" is used to connect to the external
management network. "Stack" allows CMCs in adjacent enclosures to be
daisy-chained. A 24-port Ethernet switch provides internal 100-Mb
communication with the blades, I/O modules, optional iKVM, and
optional second, redundant CMC, and provides a 10/100/1000-Mb
connection to the external management network.
NOTE: The 24-port Ethernet switch is reserved for internal communication
between the iDRAC on the blades to the CMC, then to the external
management network.
A second, optional CMC can be installed for hot-plug failover redundancy.
• An enclosure control panel that includes an LCD display which provides
current infrastructure and blade information, and error reporting.
• An optional Avocent integrated Keyboard, Video and Mouse (iKVM)
module, which includes the following features:
– The iKVM maintains all blade connections as input is switched from
each blade.
– Local iKVM access can be remotely disabled on a per blade basis via
the iDRAC user interface.
– One VGA connector.
– Two USB ports for keyboard and mouse connections.
NOTE: USB functionality is contingent on the connection of a video interface,
such as a monitor cable.
– An RJ-45 ACI port for tiering with external Dell and Avocent analog
KVM and KVM over IP switches with ARI ports. The ACI connection
takes precedence over the rear panel KVM ports.
– The iKVM can also be accessed from the control panel in the front of
the enclosure. Either front or rear KVM functionality is supported
(simultaneous functionality is not supported).
NOTE: The front iKVM is enabled by default if contention exists between the
front and rear iKVM ports. Front iKVM access can be disabled via the CMC
user interface.

for more information. This service may not be offered in all locations.
Installation and Configuration
CAUTION: Before performing the following procedure, read and follow the safety
instructions and important regulatory information that shipped with your system.
For additional safety best practices information, see
www.dell.com/regulatory_compliance.
This section describes the steps required to set up your system for the first
time.
Unpack the System
Unpack your system and identify each item. Keep all shipping materials in
case you need them later.
Getting Started With Your System 11
Install the System in a Rack
Install the system in the rack once you have read the "Safety Instructions"
located in the rack installation documentation for your system.
See your rack installation documentation for instructions on installing your
system in a rack. For power and cooling guidelines, see the rack capacity
planner tool on www.dell.com.
Install the Blades
Beginning at the top, slide the modules into the enclosure from left to right.
When the blade is securely installed, the handle returns to the closed
position.
12 Getting Started With Your System
Connect the CMC and KVM Modules
Connect the serial cable and network cable from the management system to
the CMC module. If a second, optional CMC module is installed, connect it
as well. (If your chassis was shipped with M805 or M905 blades pre-installed,
the included CMC firmware will be version 1.2 or greater.)
Connect the keyboard, mouse, and monitor to the optional iKVM module.
Connect the System to Power
Connect the system’s power cables to the system power supplies.
NOTICE: To prevent the power cables from being disconnected accidentally,
use the plastic clip on each power supply to secure the power cable to the power
supply, and use the Velcro strap to secure the cable to the strain-relief bar.
Next, plug the other end of the power cables into a separate power source
such as an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) or a power distribution unit
(PDU).
Getting Started With Your System 13
Turn on the System
Press the power button on the enclosure. The power indicator should light.
14 Getting Started With Your System
Turn on the Blades
Press the power button on each blade, or power on the blades using
the systems management software.
Complete the 0perating System Setup
If you purchased a preinstalled operating system, see the operating system
documentation that ships with your system. To install an operating system for
the first time, see the Quick Installation Guide. Be sure the operating system
is installed before installing hardware or software not purchased with the
system.
