Hardware options installation 87
A built-in processor, memory, NIC, ROM, and standard external power supply
make the RILOE II board independent of the host server and its operating
system. This design allows the RILOE II board to provide remote access to any
authorized network client, to send alerts, and to perform other management
functions.
For information about iLO technology, refer to "Integrated Lights-Out
Technology (on page 120
)."
IMPORTANT: Install the RILOE II board into slot 1 for ease of cabling.
For information about RILOE II cabling, refer to "RILOE II Cabling (on page
107

VHDCI or HD68 SCSI cable option
The VHDCI or HD68 SCSI Cable connects the server to external SCSI-based
storage or backup devices. The cabling option kit must be used for internal ports
to be used externally.
IMPORTANT: To install the external SCSI option, an internal SCSI port
must be dedicated for external use only.
In addition to the VHDCI or HD68 SCSI cable, you will also need:
•
•
T-15 Torx screwdriver
Flat-head screwdriver
NOTE: A PCI blank included with the optional Internal-to-External SCSI
Kit enables the optional HD68 SCSI cable to connect through a PCI-X
or PCI Express expansion slot ("Expansion boards" on page 82
,
"Installing expansion boards" on page 84). Refer to the Internal-to-
External SCSI Kit installation instructions for details.

2. Extend or remove the server from the rack ("Extending the server from the
rack" on page 28
