In order to validate components, a certificate containing the unique system component IDs is generated during the factory assembly process. This certificate is signed in the Dell factory and is stored in the system, later used by the SCV application. The SCV application validates the system inventory against the SCV certificate. For more information, see Secured Component Verification. Rack the system Your system may support static, sliding, or combo rails for racks along with Cable Management Arm (CMA)/SRB (Strain Relief bar). See the Rail Sizing and Rack Compatibility Matrix for your system supported rail information. 4 Getting Started 2 Set up the system with rear I/O configuration Steps 1.
