1 Setting up the System

Server Position

Please take note of the following criteria for creating a practical and safe workplace when setting up your computer:

The system can be used anywhere the temperature is suitable for people. However, rooms with humidity over 70%, and dusty or dirty areas are not appropriate. In addition, do not expose the server to any temperatures over +30 °C or under +10 °C.

Make sure that the cables connecting the server to peripheral devices are not tight.

Make sure that all power and connection cables are positioned so that they are not trip hazards.

When you save data to your server‘s hard disks or to a floppy disk, they are stored as magnetic information on the media. Make sure that they are not damaged by magnetic or electromagnetic fields.

Because the electronics in your computer can be damaged by jarring, no mechanical devices should be placed on the same surface as the server. This is especially important for impact printers whose vibrations could damage the hard disk.

Please take care to ensure a free air flow to the server at all times. Do not block the ventilation slots of the server case and particularly the power supplies. An insufficient air flow may damage the server and / or it’s components.

ATTENTION

In order to fully separate the server from current, the power cord must be removed from the wall outlet.

14 Server System Features

RAID Support

The server system provides an embedded SATA controller that supports both 1.5 and 3.0 Gbps data transfer rates.

The BIOS Setup utility provides multiple drive configuration options on the Advanced | ATA Controller setup page, some of which affect the ability to configure RAID. The “Onboard SATA Controller” option is enabled by default. When this option is enabled, the “SATA Mode” option can be set to either

Legacy or Enhanced. The Legacy and Enhanced modes affect the RAID configuration as follows:

• Legacy supports four disk drives and does not provide RAID support.

• Enhanced supports six disk drives and is required for RAID configurations.

When the enhanced mode is selected, you can choose to enable or disable “AHCI Mode” or “Configure

SATA as RAID”. Intel ® Embedded Server RAID Technology II is enabled by the option, “Configure

SATA as RAID.” The Intel ® Embedded Server RAID Technology II feature provides RAID modes 0,

1, and 10.

For RAID 0, 1, and 10, enclosure management is provided through the SATA_SGPIO connector on the server board when a cable is attached between this connector on the server board and to the backplane or I 2 C interface.

Hardware Requirements

Processor

One or two Dual-Core Intel ® Xeon ® 5000 sequence processors must be installed.

Memory

The server board provides eight DIMM sockets across two branches, and each branch has two channels. The DIMM configuration is shown in the following figure.

Channel A Channel C

Channel B Channel D

Branch 0 Branch 1

Figure 8. DIMM Configuration Diagram

MAXDATA Server PLATINUM 1500 IR M6 15

DIMMs must be populated in pairs across consecutive channels starting with the lowest numbered slot in each channel. Slots A1 and B1 are paired, followed by slots C1 and D1. For performance reasons, when configuring four DIMMs, DIMM pairs A2 and B2 should never be populated before DIMM pair

C1 and D1. A four DIMM configuration should be populated as A1 and B1; C1 and D1.

In non-mirrored mode, all DIMMs with the same slot number within a given branch must match (size, technology, manufacturer). It is not required to match DIMMs between different slot numbers.

DIMMs must meet the following requirements:

• Use only Fully Buffered DIMMs (FBD) with DDR2 DRAM technology.

• Use only FBD DDR2-533 and FBD DDR2-667 stacked DIMM modules.

In determining your memory requirements, the need for memory sparing or memory mirroring must be considered.

Memory Sparing and Mirroring

The chipset includes hardware that supports memory mirroring and memory on-line sparing. Both memory mirroring and memory on-line sparing provide a way to prevent data loss in case a DIMM fails.

In a mirrored system, the maximum usable memory is one-half of the installed memory, with a minimum of four DIMMs installed. Since the data is duplicated across DIMMs, it means that up to one-half of the installed DIMMs are actively in use at any one time. The remaining DIMMs are used for mirroring.

Memory mirroring and memory sparing are mutually exclusive. Only one can be active at a time.

Optional Hardware

Remote Management Module

The Remote Management Module is available to provide advanced server mangement features.

One 10/100 Mbps NIC mezzanine card is included for dedicated remote access.

SAS/SATA Backplanes

The system can support either an active SAS or a passive SAS/SATA backplane. The backplanes provide the platform support for peripheral drives and hot-swap SAS or SATA hard drives. To eliminate several cables, the backplanes are also used as a pathway for signals from the server board to various platform interconnects, including those for the control panel and peripheral drives.

The passive backplane acts as a pass-through for the SAS/SATA data from the drives to the

SATA controller on the server board or a SAS/SATA controller add-in card. It provides the physical requirements for the hot-swap capabilities. The active backplane has a built-in SAS controller that does not need communication with the baseboard controller or an add-in card.

5 Server Utilities

Using the BIOS Setup Utility

This section describes the BIOS Setup Utility options, which is used to change server configuration defaults.

Starting Setup

You can enter and start BIOS Setup under several conditions:

• When you turn on the server, after POST completes the memory test

• When you have moved the CMOS jumper on the server board to the “Clear CMOS” position

(enabled)

In the two conditions listed above, during the Power On Self Test (POST), you will see this prompt:

Press <F2> to enter SETUP

In a third condition, when CMOS/NVRAM has been corrupted, you will see other prompts but not the <F2> prompt:

Warning: CMOS checksum invalid

Warning: CMOS time and date not set

In this condition, the BIOS will load default values for CMOS and attempt to boot.

If You Cannot Access Setup

If you are not able to access BIOS Setup, you might need to clear the CMOS memory. For instructions on clearing the CMOS, see “Clearing the CMOS”.

Setup Menus

Each BIOS Setup menu page contains a number of features. Except for those features that are provided only to display automatically configured information, each feature is associated with a value field that contains user-selectable parameters. These parameters can be changed if the user has adequate security rights. If a value cannot be changed for any reason, the feature’s value field is inaccessible.

MAXDATA Server PLATINUM 1500 IR M6 35

<Esc>

<F9>

Description

Help - Pressing F1 on any menu invokes the general Help window.

The left and right arrow keys are used to move between the major menu pages.

The keys have no affect if a submenu or pick list is displayed.

Select Item up - The up arrow is used to select the previous value in a menu item’s option list, or a value field pick list. Pressing the Enter key activates the selected item.

Select Item down - The down arrow is used to select the next value in a menu item’s option list, or a value field pick list. Pressing the Enter key activates the selected item.

Change Value - The minus key or the F5 function key is used to change the value of the current item to the previous value. This key scrolls through the values in the associated pick list without displaying the full list.

Change Value - The plus key or the F6 function key is used to change the value of the current menu item to the next value. This key scrolls through the values in the associated pick list without displaying the full list. On 106-key Japanese keyboards, the plus key has a different scan code than the plus key on the other keyboard, but it has the same effect.

Execute Command - The Enter key is used to activate submenus when the selected feature is a submenu, or to display a pick list if a selected feature has a value field, or to select a sub-field for multi-valued features like time and date.

If a pick list is displayed, the Enter key will undo the pick list, and allow another selection in the parent menu.

Exit - The ESC key provides a mechanism for backing out of any field. This key will undo the pressing of the Enter key. When the ESC key is pressed while editing any field or selecting features of a menu, the parent menu is re-entered.

When the ESC key is pressed in any submenu, the parent menu is re-entered.

When the ESC key is pressed in any major menu, the exit confirmation window is displayed and the user is asked whether changes can be discarded.

Setup Defaults - Pressing F9 causes the following to appear:

Setup Confirmation
