Chapter 1 Controls, Ports and Indicators

Applying Power to the HP Netserver

Powering-Up the HP Netserver

1. Turn on power to the monitor connected to the HP Netserver.

Turning on the monitor first ensures that video output auto-configures properly as the Netserver boots up.

2. Press the Power push-button on the front control panel. See Figure 1-1.

When you press the power button, the Netserver powers up and loads the operating system. The system runs a set of power-on self tests (POST) during this process. For details refer to Chapter 12, "Troubleshooting."

Powering-Down the HP Netserver

1. Log off all users and, if necessary, back up files.

◊ Schedule the power-down for a time when the Netserver being down will affect the fewest users.

◊ If you will be performing a hardware or software upgrade, ensure the

Netserver’s data has been backed up.

◊ Follow instructions in your network operating system (NOS) documentation to shut down all networking software and applications.

WARNING The power supply will continue to provide standby current to the Netserver until the power cable is disconnected from the rear panel.

2. Press the power switch on the HP Netserver control panel when prompted by the operating system.

Normally this completes the power-down procedure.

Chapter 1 Controls, Ports and Indicators

Connecting AC Power to Multiple-Server Configurations

The HP Netserver temporarily draws a large "inrush current," when first connected to an AC power source. The inrush current is much greater than the

Netserver’s normal operating current and generally, the AC power source can handle the normal inrush current.

However, if you install several HP Netservers on one circuit, precautions are necessary. If there is a power failure and power is then restored, all the servers immediately begin to draw inrush current at the same time. If the circuit breakers on the incoming power line have insufficient capability, the breaker may trip and prevent the servers from powering up.

When preparing your site for installation, allow for the additional inrush current.

Refer to Table A-1, "Power Supply Specifications" in Appendix A,

"Specifications."

Sleep States (ACPI)

The HP Netserver supports the ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power

Interface) standard, which is a key component of a NOS’s directed power management. The supported features are only available when an ACPI-compliant

NOS is installed on the Netserver. The term “sleep state” refers to any of several reduced power consumption states in which normal NOS activity has ceased.

The Netserver supports several sleep states. One of these is a “standby” or

“suspend” sleep state, which has a short wake-up time. In this sleep state, the

Netserver appears to be off – the monitor appears blank and there is no CD-ROM or SCSI hard drive activity, however, the front panel power LED flashes slowly and the fans continue to operate.

The Netserver also supports another sleep state with a slower wake-up time, sometimes referred to as “hibernate” by various operating systems. In this sleep state, the Netserver appears to be off as described earlier, but the fans and the front panel power LED are also turned off. The unique feature of this sleep state

(and the reason for its slower wake-up time) is that information about the

Netserver’s NOS state (open applications, screens, and so on) is saved to disk before the Netserver is placed in the sleep state. Upon wake-up, this information must be restored from disk. This method of restoring the Netserver's operation is much faster than a complete rebooting of the Netserver. It still requires running all the start-up self-tests before starting the NOS, but loading the NOS and all the previously opened applications is much faster.

Chapter 1 Controls, Ports and Indicators

The Netserver supports certain types of system activity, which is used as wake-up events from these sleep states. These wake-up events can be generated from the power button, LAN activity, and scheduled events.

NOTE The HP Netserver’s power management policies (transitions between various power states) and the user options are specific to the particular ACPI-compliant NOS installed on the

Netserver. If your NOS is ACPI-compliant, refer to the power management features in the instructions provided for more information.

The HP Netserver’s power button can be configured to initiate a graceful shutdown of the NOS rather than an immediate shutdown of the power supply.

The power button configurations are dependent on the user interface provided by the ACPI-compliant NOS. While power management is under the control of the

ACPI-compliant NOS, the HP Netserver’s power button is capable of an override in case of a non-responsive NOS.

NOTE The HP Netserver power button will force a power-down without waiting for the NOS to gracefully shut down the

Netserver, if the power button is pressed and held more than four seconds.

CAUTION If the power button override is used, there is a strong possibility that data will be corrupted or lost.

3 Installing Mass Storage Devices

Introduction

The HP Netserver LP 2000r comes standard with an IDE CD-ROM and a slim-line flexible disk drive, and can accommodate up to six Hot Swap SCSI hard drives. A SCSI tape backup drive may be connected as an option to the external

SCSI connector at the rear.

Tools Required

No tools are required to install a SCSI drive in the Netserver. If the SCSI drive is not pre-mounted in its tray, you will need the following tools for this task:

•

Phillips size 1 screwdriver

•

Check the documentation that came with the drive for additional tool requirements

Mass Storage Guidelines

•

General Guidelines

◊ Use care when unpacking and handling the SCSI disk drives. The hard disk drives are very susceptible to mechanical shock and can be easily damaged by a drop as short as one-quarter of an inch.

◊

Do not stack drives.

The Netserver may have up to 6 Hot Swap SCSI hard disk drives

(HDD). A flexible disk drive and CD-ROM drive are standard on all models of the HP Netserver LP 2000r. See Figure 3-1.

◊ If a backup tape drive is used, it must be connected externally using the external 68-pin SCSI connector at the rear of the Netserver.

•

IDE Devices

◊ The embedded IDE controller is an Enhanced-IDE dual channel controller and provides two connectors (IDE-1 and IDE-2) for IDE devices. Refer to "System Board Layout" in Appendix A,

"Specifications."

◊ The IDE CD-ROM has only one connector on the cable from the primary channel (IDE-1) connector.

Chapter 3 Installing Mass Storage Devices

◊

•

SCSI Device Selection

◊ Use only HP LVD low-profile (1 inch) SCSI 3.5-inch hard disk drives in the Hot Swap drive slots.

◊

A secondary IDE connector (IDE-2) is available on the system board, but is not used.

Ensure the SCSI devices you install in Hot Swap slots do not have terminations installed. The Hot Swap backplane provides automatic termination for any unused slots. The HP Hot Swap SCSI drives come set without device ID or termination. Do not change these settings.

◊ Do not use high voltage differential (HVD) SCSI devices on either of the SCSI channels. Using these devices will damage the backplane and render the SCSI drive slots inoperable.

◊ The embedded dual-channel Ultra-160M SCSI controller includes connectors for SCSI channels A and B.

◊ Channel A is used for connecting to the two SCSI backplane boards.

The standard SCSI cable has one 68-pin, high-density connector for connecting to SCSI backplanes.

◊ Channel B is used to control external mass storage devices, including an external backup tape drive. Channel B is connected to the external

68-pin SCSI connector on the rear of the Netserver. It can also be connected to internal backplanes and used for duplex mode. For information about duplexing, see “Duplexing Using Internal SCSI

Channels” later in this chapter.

•

SCSI Drive Addressing

◊ The SCSI drives in the Hot Swap slots are automatically assigned SCSI addresses according to their drive slot location-not on SCSI addresses you may set (see Figure 3-1). This is also the case if you are using a

RAID controller board. Do not set SCSI ID software settings or jumpers on the SCSI drive’s controller board.

•

SCSI Device Installation Order

◊ The six Hot Swap drive slots support various SCSI HDD configurations. Start from the top left side when adding Hot Swap

SCSI hard drives in the HP Netserver.

•

Filler Panels

◊ Ensure that the empty SCSI HDD slots in the chassis have filler panels inserted before powering on the Netserver to ensure proper airflow. See

Figure 3-2.

Chapter 3 Installing Mass Storage Devices

CAUTION Thermal damage or excessive electromagnetic radiation may result if you operate the HP Netserver without filler panels inserted in empty SCSI HDD slots.

Figure 3-1. HP Netserver Mass Storage Drives

Boot Priority

The Netserver’s boot order should be considered when selecting a boot device.

This is especially important if you are installing a board that requires a high priority in the boot order. The board’s boot priority is set by its location in the boot order.

By default the Netserver searches for boot devices in this order:

1. IDE CD-ROM drive

2. Flexible disk drive

3. Embedded SCSI A channel (Hot Swap SCSI Drives), starting with

SCSI ID 0

4. Embedded SCSI B channel (external SCSI Devices)

5. PCI slots 1, 2, and 3 (in that order)

6. Network connection

The embedded SCSI controller consists of two channels, A and B. Channel A is used to control the Hot Swap SCSI hard drives (6). Channel B is used to control the external SCSI devices. On each SCSI channel, the controller scans for a boot device starting at device ID 0 and works through the ID numbers. The Netserver’s embedded controller is always SCSI ID 7.

For information about booting off of a hard disk connected to an accessory board, see "Installing a Disk Array Controller Board" in Chapter 5, "Installing Additional

Boards." For information about using Channel B for duplex mode, see “Duplexing

Using Internal SCSI Channels” later in this chapter.

Chapter 3 Installing Mass Storage Devices

NOTE The boot order can be changed using the Netserver’s (BIOS)

Setup Utility and the SCSI Select Utility. Refer to Chapter 8,

"Configuring the HP Netserver," for more information.

** Both SCSI channels (A and B) can each support up to 15 devices; however, there are only enough internal storage slots for six Hot Swap SCSI hard drives. Channel B is used to control external SCSI devices, typically a SCSI tape backup device.

Hardware Mirroring

You may choose to mirror hard drives (RAID 1) in the HP Netserver’s hot swap slots. Hardware mirroring can help speed up disk access time.

To mirror hard drives, you need to install the HP NetRAID Controller board and use an additional SCSI cable to connect the NetRAID board to the SCSI backplane connector. If you do not use HP’s NetRAID Controller board, be sure to use a DAC with an LVD interface.

Chapter 3 Installing Mass Storage Devices

CAUTION To prevent damage to the Hot Swap SCSI hard disk drives, do not use a HVD (high voltage differential) DAC controller.

If you are mirroring hard drives using the HP NetRAID Controller board, refer to

"Duplexing SCSI Hard Disk Drives" later in this chapter for instructions on how to install the SCSI cable to the SCSI backplane connector. Refer to the documentation provided by the HP NetRAID PCI Controller board for external cabling requirements.

Installing Hot Swap Hard Drives

Use this section to install Hot Swap hard drives in the Hot Swap drive slots.

CAUTION Protect the drive from static electricity:

•

Leave the drive it in the anti-static bag until you are ready to install it.

•

Before handling the drive, touch an unpainted metal surface to discharge static electricity.

•

Handle the drive only by its frame. Place the drive on the anti-static bag whenever you set it down.

•

Do not touch the electrical components.

1. Remove the filler panel from the drive slot. See Figure 3-2.

Press the tab latches on the sides of the filler panel, and pull straight out to remove it from the slot. Save the filler panel for future use.

4 Installing Additional Memory

Introduction

The HP Netserver LP 2000r’s main memory is implemented using four memory slots on the system board which support up to 4 GB (1 GB x 4) of memory. The

Netserver uses only 3.3V, 168-pin, 133 MHz SDRAM DIMMs and ships with at least one 256 MB DIMM. The embedded video controller is provided with 4 MB standard video memory and cannot be upgraded.

NOTE Use only PC 133 (133 MHz) SDRAM DIMMs acquired from

Hewlett-Packard. The EDO DIMMs and PC 100 SDRAM

DIMMs from earlier HP Netserver models will fit into the

DIMM slots in the Netserver, but the EDO DIMMs and PC 100

SDRAM will not function properly.

To ensure you have the correct DIMMs before installation, refer to one of the following for a list of qualified DIMMs:

•

5 Installing Additional Boards

Introduction

The HP Netserver LP 2000r provides three 64-bit PCI slots connected to a riser board contained in the PCI card cage. The slots will accept full-length 32-bit or

64-bit PCI accessory boards.

Tested PCI Boards

For a list of tested PCI boards, check for compatibility in Configuration Assistant on the Navigator CD-ROM or look for the Hardware Tested Products list for the

HP Netserver LP 2000r under the Service and Support topic for the specific NOS used in the Netserver at HP’s web site: http://www.hp.com/netserver/support/

All Hewlett-Packard accessory boards comply with the U.S. National Electrical code (NFPA 70) Class 2.

For additional information, refer to the Readme file and Configuration Advisor on your HP Netserver Navigator CD-ROM. Refer to Chapter 10, "Configuring the

HP Netserver," for instructions.

CAUTION Some accessory board outputs may exceed U.S. National

Electrical code (NFPA 70) Class 2 or limited power source limits and must use appropriate interconnecting cabling in accordance with the National Electrical Code.

Tools Required

You will need the following tools to add or remove accessory boards:

•

¼-inch Phillips screwdriver (for removing the slot cover)

•

An anti-static service kit (3M 8501/8502/8503 or equivalent). This kit includes a static-dissipating work surface, a chassis clip lead, and a wrist strap.

Chapter 5 Installing Additional Boards

Accessory Board Installation Guidelines

The following sections provide guidelines for installing PCI accessory boards into the HP Netserver 2000r.

IRQ Settings

The HP Netserver uses the Plug and Play feature of the PCI board to automatically assign IRQ settings to its resources.

Boot Priority

The HP Netserver’s boot priority (BIOS search order for a boot drive) should be considered when selecting a boot device. This is especially important if you are installing a board that requires an early number in the boot order. The board’s boot priority is determined by its PCI slot location. See Figure 5-1.

The embedded SCSI controller consists of two channels, A and B. Channel A is used to control the internal Hot Swap SCSI drives. Channel B is used to control the external SCSI devices, including a backup tape drive. On each SCSI channel, the HP Netserver scans for a boot device starting at device ID 0 and works up from there.

By default the HP Netserver searches for boot devices in this order:

1. IDE CD-ROM drive

2. Flexible disk drive

3. SCSI A channel (Hot Swap SCSI HDD)

4. SCSI B channel (external SCSI devices)

5. PCI slots 1, 2, and 3 (32-bit or 64-bit slot)

6. Network connection

Installing a Disk Array Controller Board

Adding a disk array controller board provides additional fault tolerance to your internal or external mass storage devices. HP recommends installing the HP

NetRAID-4M PCI board in the HP Netserver LP 2000r. When installing a disk array controller board, you may alter the Netserver’s boot order to allow the

Netserver to boot off one of the array’s drives. This boot order can be changed under the Configuration menu of the Netserver’s (BIOS) Setup Utility and in the

SCSI Configuration Utility.

Chapter 5 Installing Additional Boards

Remote Control Card

The HP Netserver LP2000r supports the HP Remote Control card, which uses the

HP TopTools remote management software. The Remote Control card requires an

C connection to the system board, provided by the I

C connector on the daughter board (Integrated Remote Assistant circuitry) that is installed on the system board.

See Figure 5-1 and Figure 5-2.

For more information on the HP TopTools remote management function, refer to

Chapter 10, "Configuring the HP Netserver" and Chapter 11, "HP Netserver

Safety Precautions

Always keep the following safety and environmental issues in mind, especially if you install the HP Netserver in a non-HP rack environment: l Optimum Operating Environment - The optimum operating conditions for the HP Netserver is in an environmental controlled computer room with a temperature range of 20 to 22

C (68 to 72

F) at 40 to 60% relative humidity.

•

Maximum Ambient Temperature - Ensure the maximum ambient temperature does not exceed 35

C (95

F).

•

Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature - The ambient operating temperature within a closed or multi-unit rack assembly is likely to exceed the room’s ambient temperature. Ensure the temperature within the rack itself does not exceed 35

C (95

F).

•

Reduced Air Flow - As you mount equipment in the rack, ensure you allow enough air flow for safe operation of the equipment. The Netserver’s fans will only operate correctly if both front and rear doors of the rack allow free air flow (perforated openings), or are removed.

•

Mechanical Loading - Uneven mechanical loading within the rack can cause hazardous conditions. To prevent this in your installation plans, place the heaviest components in the bottom of the rack, mounting all components as low in the rack as is practical.

•

Circuit Overloading - Ensure the total configuration of equipment in the rack does not overload the supply circuit. Check the nameplate ratings on all equipment. Consider the effect of circuit overloading on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.

•

Reliable Earth Grounding - Ensure rack-mounted equipment is reliably grounded. Give particular attention to supply connections that are not direct connections to the branch circuit (for example, use of non-HP power strips).

Chapter 13 Alternative Rack Mounting (4–Post)

Safety Precautions

Always keep the following safety and environmental issues in mind, especially if you install the HP Netserver in a non-HP rack environment:

•

Optimum Operating Environment – The optimum operating conditions for the HP Netserver is in an environmental controlled computer room with a temperature range of 20 to 22

C (68 to 72

F) at 40 to 60% relative humidity.

•

Maximum Ambient Temperature – Ensure the maximum ambient temperature does not exceed 35

C (95

F).

•

Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature – The ambient operating temperature within a closed or multi-unit rack assembly may exceed the room's ambient temperature. Ensure the temperature within the rack itself does not exceed 35

C (95

F).

•

Reduced Air Flow – As you mount equipment in the rack, ensure you allow enough air flow for safe operation of the equipment. The Netserver's fans will only operate correctly if both front and rear doors of the rack allow free air flow (perforated openings), or are removed.

•

Mechanical Loading – Uneven mechanical loading within the rack can cause hazardous conditions. To prevent this in your installation plans, place the heaviest components in the bottom of the rack, mounting all components as low in the rack as is practical.

•

Circuit Overloading – Ensure the total configuration of equipment in the rack does not overload the supply circuit. To this end, check the nameplate ratings on all equipment. Consider the effect of circuit overloading on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.

•

Reliable Earth Grounding – Ensure rack-mounted equipment is reliably grounded. Give particular attention to supply connections that are not direct connections to the branch circuit (for example, use of non-HP power strips).
