ID LED

Continuous green light indicates a link between the system and the network to which it is connected.

Blinking green light indicates network activity.

Continuous green light indicates the system has power applied to it.

Blinking green light (Note 1) indicates the system is sleeping.

No light indicates the system does not have power applied to it (other than 5V standby power).

Random blinking green light indicates hard disk drive activity (SCSI or IDE).

Continuous amber light (Note 2) indicates hard disk drive fault (SCSI or IDE).

No light (Note 3) indicates no hard disk drive activity nor fault (SCSI or IDE).

Continuous green light indicates the system is operating normally.

Blinking green light indicates the system is operating in a degraded condition.

Continuous amber light (Note 4) indicates the system is in a critical or nonrecoverable condition.

Blinking amber light (Note 4) indicates the system is in a noncritical condition.

No light indicates POST/system stop.

Continuous blue light indicates ID button is depressed or light is turned on by software.

No light indicates ID button is not depressed.

Notes:

1. The power LED sleep indication is maintained on standby by the chipset. If the system

is powered down without going through BIOS, the LED state in effect at the time of

power off will be restored when the system is powered on until the BIOS clears it. If

the system is not powered down normally, it is possible that the power LED will be

blinking at the same time that the system status LED is off due to a failure or configuration

change that prevents the BIOS from running.

2. In order for a hard disk fault indication to occur, either an Intelligent Platform Management

Interface (IPMI) – based satellite management controller must send a Set Fault Indication

command to the Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) or the system board must

be used with the 1U hot-swappable backplane.

3. Also off when the system is powered off or in a sleep state.

4. The amber status takes precedence over the green status. When the amber LED is on

or blinking, the green LED is off.

Chassis Description

Peripherals

The chassis provides for a variety of peripherals that can be purchased separately and added to the system. The following describes the available options.

Hard Disk Drives

The chassis ships with two drive carriers for mounting HDDs in the hard drive bays.



NOTE

Drives can consume up to 17 watts of power each. Drives must be specified to run at a maximum ambient temperature of 50°C.

Hot-Swappable SCSI Hard Drives

In a SCSI system, the SCSI hard drives are hot swappable. When a drive fails, the SCSI backplane detects the failure, reports it, and powers down the failed drive. The drive fault

LED shows a continuous amber light. After the failed drive is removed and a new drive is inserted, there is a short wait before power is applied to the drive and the drive fault LED becomes a blinking green light.

Flex Bay

In an ATA-based system, the fl ex bay can only be used with the optional DVD/FDD or

CD-ROM/FDD module. If the DVD/CD-ROM/FDD module is not used, the fl ex bay is left empty. In a SCSI-based system, the fl ex bay can be used with either the optional DVD/FDD or CD-ROM/FDD module or a third hot-swappable SCSI HDD.

The DVD/CD-ROM/FDD module may only be inserted or removed from the fl ex bay when system power is turned off. The DVD/CD-ROM/FDD module is NOT hot swappable.

MAXDATA PLATINUM 1510R Server Chassis 9

Power Supply

The power supply is rated for 350 watts of power at the following voltages:

• 100 – 127 volts (V)~ at 50/60 Hertz (Hz); 4.96 amperes (A) maximum (max)

• 200 – 240 volts (V)~ at 50/60 Hertz (Hz); 2.48 amperes (A) maximum (max)

The power subsystem supports implementation of remote management features including remote enable that permits power to be activated from a variety of sources.

System Cooling

The chassis includes a non-hot-swappable fan module with five fans for cooling the processor(s), hard drives, and PCI cards. The fan system is located in the middle of the chassis to pull cooling air through the chassis. The power supply contains two built-in fans for cooling.

Chassis Security

To help prevent unauthorized access to the system’s peripherals and control panel, a key locks the optional bezel to the front panel. The chassis also includes a preinstalled intrusion switch for the access cover that can be monitored by server management software. When the cover is opened, the switch, located on the front panel board, transmits a signal to the

Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) on the server board, where server management software processes the signal. For example, the system can be programmed to respond to an intrusion by powering down or by locking the keyboard.

Locking and Unlocking the Bezel

To unlock the bezel, insert the key in the lock and turn the lock counterclockwise until it stops (about a quarter turn). The bezel is now unlocked and can be opened again.

To lock the bezel, insert the key in the lock. Turn the lock clockwise until it stops (about a quarter turn). The bezel is now locked and cannot be opened.

10 Chassis Description

Installation instructions for the standard bracket kit and the optional rail kit are included with each kit.

Equipment Rack Precautions

CAUTION

Anchor The Equipment Rack: The equipment rack must be anchored to an unmovable support to prevent it from falling over when one or more servers are extended in front of it on slide assemblies. The equipment rack must be installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions.You must also consider the weight of any other device installed in the rack.

Main AC Power Disconnect: You are responsible for installing an AC power disconnect for the entire rack unit. This main disconnect must be readily accessible and it must be labeled as controlling power to the entire unit, not just to the server(s).

Grounding The Rack Installation: To avoid the potential for an electrical shock hazard, you must include a third wire safety grounding conductor with the rack installation. If server power cords are plugged into AC outlets that are part of the rack, then you must provide proper grounding for the rack itself. If server power cords are plugged into wall AC outlets, the safety grounding conductor in each power cord provides proper grounding only for the server. You must provide additional, proper grounding for the rack and other devices installed in it.

Overcurrent Protection: The server is designed for an AC line voltage source with up to 20 amperes of overcurrent protection. If the power system for the equipment rack is installed on a branch circuit with more than 20 amperes of protection, you must provide supplemental protection for the server. If more than one server is installed in the rack, the power source for each server must be from a separate branch circuit.

CAUTION

Temperature: The operating temperature of the server, when installed in an equipment rack, must not go below 5°C (41°F) or rise above 35°C (95°F). Extreme fluctuations in temperature can cause a variety of problems in your server.

Ventilation: The equipment rack must provide sufficient airflow to the front of the server to maintain proper cooling. It must also include ventilation sufficient to exhaust a maximum of 1200 Btu per hour for a fully loaded server.

It is important to note that this measurement is the maximum, and a minimum or typical system could be much less. You may want to calculate the Btu/hr measurement more accurately for your configuration. An extra 500 Btu/hr over many systems would translate into a large error calculating air conditioning capacity.
