W. 13 Processor Each Pentium II or Pentium III processor is packaged in a cartridge. The cartridge includes the processor core with an integrated 16 KB primary (L1) cache, the secondary (L2) cache, and a back cover. The processor implements the MMX™ technology and maintains full backward compatibility with the 8086, 80286, Intel386™, Intel486™, Pentium, Pentium Pro, Pentium II, and Pentium III processors. The processor’s numeric coprocessor significantly increases the speed of floating point operations and complies with ANSI/IEEE standard 754-1985. Each processor cartridge connects to the server board through a 242-pin slot 1-edge connector. A retention module attached to the server board secures the cartridge. Depending on the configuration, your server may have one or two processors. The processor external interface is MP (Multi-Processor) ready and operates at 100 MHz. The processor contains a local APIC (Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller) section for interrupt handling in MP and UP (Uni-Processor) environments. The second level cache is located on the substrate of the S.E.C. cartridge. The cache includes burst pipelined synchronous static RAM (BSRAM). Memory Only 100 MHz PC/100 ECC or Non-ECC SDRAM is supported by the server board. Memory is partitioned as four banks of SDRAM DIMMs, each providing 72 bits of non-interleaved memory (64 bit main memory plus ECC): • Install from 64 MB to 2 GB of memory, using registered DIMMs. • Install from 32 MB to 1 GB of memory, using unbuffered DIMMs. Memory should be added in order from slot 1 to slot 4. ✏ NOTE Do not mix registered and unbuffered memory. Non ECC memory may be installed but ECC memory is recommended in a server environment. Mixing Non-ECC memory and ECC memory causes all ECC features to be disabled. The controller automatically detects, sizes, and initializes the memory array, depending on the type, size, and speed of the installed DIMMs, and reports memory size and allocation to the server via configuration registers. 14 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide ✏ NOTE Use DIMMs that have been tested for compatibility with the server board. Contact your sales representative or dealer for a current list of approved memory modules. Check the Intel Customer Support web site for the latest tested memory list: http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/L440gx/compat.htm 440GX Host Bridge / Memory Controller The ISP2150 is designed around the Intel® 82440GX AGPSet (440GX). This device provides 100 MHz processor host bus interface support, DRAM controller, PCI bus interface, AGP interface (used on LB440GX for PCI-66/5V), and power management functions. The host bus/memory interface in the 440GX is optimized for 100 MHz operation, using 100 MHz SDRAM main memory. The PCI interface is PCI 2.1-compliant, providing a 33 MHz / 5V signaling environment for embedded controllers and slots in the riser card. The 440GX memory controller supports up to 2 GB of ECC or Non-ECC memory, using PC/100 compliant Synchronous DRAM (SDRAM) devices on DIMM plug-in modules. ECC can detect and correct single-bit errors, and detect multiple-bit errors. Peripherals Super I/O Chip The National† 87309 device supports two serial ports, one parallel port, diskette drive, PS/2-compatible keyboard and mouse. The server board provides a connector interface for each port. Serial Ports Each serial port can be set to one of four different COMx ports and can be enabled separately. When enabled, each port can be programmed to generate edge or level sensitive interrupts. When disabled, serial port interrupts are available to add-in boards. Parallel Port The 87309 provides one IEEE 1284-compatible 25 pin bi-directional EPP (supporting levels 1.7 and 1.9). BIOS programming of the 87309 registers enable the parallel port and determine the port address and interrupt. ECP mode is supported with 2 possible DMA channels. When disabled, the interrupt is available to add-in boards. Description 15 Add-in Board Slots You can only add two PCI cards to this server. You must use the PCI slots on the riser card. Do not use any expansion slots on the server board. The server board has two full length standard PCI connectors on the riser card. PCI features: • Bus speed up to 33 MHz • 32 bit memory addressing • 5 V signaling environment • Burst transfers of up to 133 Mbps • 8, 16, or 32 bit data transfers • Plug and Play ready • Parity enabled Video The onboard, integrated Cirrus Logic CL-GD5480 64 bit VGA chip contains an SVGA controller that is fully compatible with these video standards: CGA, EGA, Hercules† Graphics, MDA LAN, and VGA. The standard configuration comes with 2 MB of 10 ns onboard Synchronous Graphics Memory (SGRAM). The video controller supports pixel resolutions of up to 1600 x 1200 and up to 16.7 Million colors. The SVGA controller supports analog VGA monitors (single and multiple frequency, interlaced and non-interlaced) with a maximum vertical retrace non—interlaced frequency of 100 Hz. You cannot add video memory to the server board. Depending on the environment, the controller displays up to 16.7 M colors in some video resolutions. It also provides hardware accelerated bit block transfers (BITBLT) of data. SCSI Controller The embedded Adaptec AIC-7896 dual function SCSI controller provides both Ultra2 (LVDS) wide and Ultra wide SCSI interfaces as two independent PCI functions. The SCSI bus is terminated on the server board with active terminators that cannot be disabled. The onboard device must always be at one end of the bus. The device at the end of the cable must be terminated. LVDS devices generally do not have termination capabilities. Non-LVDS devices generally are terminated through a jumper or resistor pack. If your device does not have a termination jumper or resistor pack, you must add a terminator to the end of the cable. A terminator is not supplied with your board. You must purchase one separately. The hot-swap backplane in the ISP2150 system provides termination for the LVD SCSI bus. 16 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide IDE Controller IDE is a 16 bit interface for intelligent disk drives with disk controller electronics onboard. The PCI/ISA/IDE Accelerator, also known as PIIX4e, is a multifunction device on the server board that acts as a PCI based Fast IDE controller. The device controls: • PIO and IDE DMA/bus master operations • Mode 4 timings • Transfer rates up to 33 MB/s • Buffering for PCI/IDE burst transfers • Master/slave IDE mode • Up to two devices per channel; two channels, IDE0 and IDE1 ✏ NOTE 18 inch maximum length of IDE cable on each channel: You can connect an IDE signal cable, up to a maximum of 18 inches each, to each IDE connector on the server board. Each cable can support two devices, one at the end of the cable and one 6 inches from the end of the cable. Network Controller The server board includes a 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX network solution based on the Intel 82559 single chip Fast Ethernet PCI Bus Controller. As a PCI bus master, the controller can burst data at up to 132 MB/s. The controller contains two receive and transmit FIFO buffers that prevent data overruns or underruns while waiting for access to the PCI bus. The controller has the following: • 32 bit PCI bus master interface (direct drive of bus), compatible with PCI Bus Specification, Revision 2.1 • Chained memory structure with improved dynamic transmit chaining for enhanced performance • Programmable transmit threshold for improved bus utilization • Early receive interrupt for concurrent processing of receive data • On-chip counters for network management • Autodetect and autoswitching for 10 or 100 Mbps network speeds • Support for both 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps networks, capable of full or half duplex, with back-to-back transmit at 100 Mbps The network status LEDs on the server board indicate: • Transmit/receive activity on the LAN • Valid link to the LAN • 10/100 Mbps transfer mode Description 17 Keyboard and Mouse The keyboard/mouse controller is PS/2-compatible. The server may be locked automatically if there is no keyboard or mouse activity for a predefined length of time, if specified through the System Setup Utility (SSU). Once the inactivity (lockout) timer has expired, the keyboard and mouse do not respond until the previously stored password is entered. ACPI The ISP2150 supports the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) as defined by the ACPI 1.0 and PC97 specifications. An ACPI aware operating system can put the system into a state where the hard drives spin down, the system fans stop, and all processing is halted. However, the power supply will still be on and the processors will still be dissipating some power, so the power supply fan and processor fans will still run. The ISP2150 supports sleep states s0, s1, s4, and s5. With future versions of Microsoft Windows† 9X that support ACPI, the BIOS will only support sleep states s0, s1, and s5. With future versions of Microsoft Windows NT†x that support ACPI, the BIOS will support sleep states s0, s1, s4, and s5. • s0: Normal running state. • s1: Processor sleep state. No context will be lost in this state and the processor caches will maintain coherency. • s4: Hibernate or Save to Disk: The memory and machine state are saved to disk. Pressing the power button or other wakeup event will restore the system state from the disk and resume normal operation. This assumes that no hardware changes have been made to the system while it was off. • s5: Soft off: Only the RTC section of the PIIX4 and the BMC are running in this state. CAUTION The system is off only when the AC power is disconnected. Server Management Server Management features are implemented using one microcontroller. Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) All server management functionality is concentrated in the BMC. The BMC and associated circuitry are powered from + 5V_Standby, which remains active when server power is switched off and the server is still plugged into AC power. 18 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide One major function of the BMC is to autonomously monitor system management events, and log their occurrence in the nonvolatile System Event Log (SEL). These include events such as over-temperature and over-voltage conditions, fan failure, or chassis intrusion. To enable accurate monitoring, the BMC maintains the nonvolatile Sensor Data Record (SDR), from which sensor information can be retrieved. The BMC provides an ISA host interface to SDR sensor information, so software running on the server can poll and retrieve the server’s current status. SEL contents can be retrieved after system failure, for analysis by field service personnel using server management software tools such as Intel® Server Control available on the CD-ROM that ships with the ISP2150 server or from the Intel Customer Support web site: http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/LB440gx/ Because 5V_Standby powers the BMC, SEL and SDR information are also available via the IMB (Intelligent Management Bus). An Emergency Management Card, such as the Intel® LANDesk® SMM (Server Monitor Module) card available with the LANDesk Server Manager Pro package, can obtain the SEL and make it remotely accessible using a LAN or telephone line connection. While it receives the proper current, the BMC does the following: • Monitors server board temperature and voltage • Monitors processor presence and controls FRB • Detects and indicates baseboard fan failure • Manages the SEL interface • Manages the SDR Repository interface • Monitors the SDR/SEL timestamp clock • Manages the server board Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) information interface • Monitors the system management watchdog timer • Monitors the periodic SMI timer • Manages front panel NMI handling • Monitors the event receiver • Manages the ISA host and IMB interface • Controls secure mode, including video blanking, floppy write-protect monitoring, and front panel lock/unlock initiation • Manages the sensor event initialization agent • Controls Wake on LAN via Magic Packet† support Emergency Management Port Console The Emergency Management Port (EMP) Console provides an interface to the Emergency Management Port (EMP). This interface allows remote server management via a modem or direct (serial port to serial port) connection. The server control operations available with EMP Console are: • Connecting to remote servers • Powering the server on or off • Resetting the server Description 19 The EMP Console uses three management plug-ins to monitor the server: • SEL Viewer • SDR Viewer • FRU Viewer The EMP Console also has Phonebook plug-in that can be used to create and maintain a list of servers and their phone numbers. ✏ NOTE EMP and PEP (Platform Event Paging) share your modem. PEP has priority over all applications except EMP. If an alert occurs, PEP will reset your modem and page you. Platform Event Paging With Platform Event Paging (PEP), your server can be configured to automatically dial up a paging service and page you when a platform event occurs. Platform events include temperature out-of-range, voltage out-of-range, chassis intrusion, fan failure, etc. If PEP is enabled and the BMC receives or detects a new event, it automatically sends a page. It can send a page if the processors are down or if the system software is unavailable. PEP needs an external modem connected to the server’s EMP (Emergency Management Port) serial connection. This is typically the COM2 serial connector. Software Security The BIOS Setup and the System Setup Utility (SSU) provide a number of security features to prevent unauthorized or accidental access to the system. Once the security measures are enabled, you can access the system only after you enter the correct password(s). For example: • Enable the keyboard lockout timer so that the server requires a password to reactivate the keyboard and mouse after a specified time out period1 to 120 minutes. • Set and enable an administrative password. • Set and enable a user password. • Set secure mode to prevent keyboard or mouse input and to prevent use of the front panel reset and power switches. • Activate a hot key combination to enter secure mode quickly. • Disable writing to the diskette drive when secure mode is set. • Disable access to the boot sector of the operating system hard disk drive. 20 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide Using Passwords You can set the user password, the administrator password, or both passwords. If only the user password is set, you: • Must enter the user password to enter BIOS Setup or the SSU. • Must enter the user password to boot the server if Password on Boot is enabled in either the BIOS Setup or SSU. • Must enter the user password to exit secure mode. If only the administrator password is set, you: • Must enter the administrator password to enter BIOS Setup or the SSU. • Must enter the administrator password to boot the server if Password on Boot is enabled in either the BIOS Setup or SSU. • Must enter the administrator password to exit secure mode. If both passwords are set, you: • May enter the user password to enter BIOS Setup or the SSU. However, you will not be able to change many of the options. • Must enter the administrator password if you want to enter BIOS Setup or the SSU and have access to all of the options. • May enter either password to boot the server if Password on Boot is enabled in either the BIOS Setup or SSU. • May enter either password to exit secure mode. Secure Mode Configure and enable the secure boot mode by using the SSU. When secure mode is in effect: • You can boot the server and the operating system will run, but you must enter the user password to use the keyboard or mouse. • You cannot turn off system power from the front panel button. Secure mode has no effect on functions enabled via the Server Manager Module or power control via the real time clock. Taking the server out of secure mode does not change the state of system power. That is, if you press and release the power switch while secure mode is in effect, the system will not be powered off when secure mode is later removed. However, if the front panel power switch remains depressed when secure mode is removed, the server will be powered off. Description 21 Summary of Software Security Features The table below lists the software security features and describes what protection each offers. In general, to enable or set the features listed here, you must run the SSU and go to the Security Subsystem Group, menu. The table also refers to other SSU menus and to the Setup utility. Table 3. Software Security Features Feature Description Secure mode How to enter secure mode: Setting and enabling passwords automatically places the system in secure mode. If you set a hot-key combination (through the SSU or Setup), you can secure the system simply by pressing the key combination. This means you do not have to wait for the inactivity time-out period. When the system is in secure mode: The server can boot and run the operating system, but mouse and keyboard input is not accepted until the user password is entered. At boot time, if a CD is detected in the CD-ROM drive or a diskette in drive A, the system prompts for a password. When the password is entered, the server boots from CD or diskette and disables the secure mode. If there is no CD in the CD-ROM drive or diskette in drive A, the server boots from drive C and automatically goes into secure mode. All enabled secure mode features go into effect at boot time. To leave secure mode: Enter the correct password(s). Disable writing to diskette. In secure mode, the server will not boot from or write to a diskette unless a password is entered. To set this feature, use the SSU Security Subsystem Group. To write protect access to diskette whether the server is in secure mode or not, use the Setup main menu, Floppy Options, and specify Floppy Access as read only. Disable the power button. Enable the feature through the SSU. Then the power button is disabled when the server is in secure mode. Set a time out period so that keyboard and mouse input are not accepted. Specify and enable an inactivity time out period of from 1 to 120 minutes. Also, screen can be blanked, and writes to diskette can be inhibited. Control access to using the SSU: set administrative password. If no keyboard or mouse action occurs for the specified period, attempted keyboard and mouse input will not be accepted. The monitor display will go blank, and the diskette drive will be write protected (if these security features are enabled through Setup or the SSU). To resume activity: Enter the correct password(s). To control access to setting or changing the system configuration, set an administrative password and enable it through Setup or the SSU. If both the administrative and user passwords are enabled, either can be used to boot the server or enable the keyboard and/or mouse, but only the administrative password will allow Setup and the SSU to be changed. To disable a password, change it to a blank entry or press CTRL-D in the Change Password menu of the Administrative Password Option menu found in the Security Subsystem Group. To clear the password if you cannot access Setup or the SSU, change the Clear Password jumper (see Chapter 5). continued 22 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide Table 3. Software Security Features (continued) Feature Description Control access to the system other than SSU: set user password. To control access to using the system, set a user password and enable it through Setup or the SSU. To disable a password, change it to a blank entry or press CTRL-D in the Change Password menu of the User Password Option menu found in the Security Subsystem Group. To clear the password if you cannot access Setup or the SSU, change the Clear Password jumper (see Chapter 5). Boot without keyboard. The system can boot with or without a keyboard. During POST, before the system completes the boot sequence, the BIOS automatically detects and tests the keyboard if it is present and displays a message. There is no entry in the SSU to enable or disable a keyboard. Specify the boot sequence. The sequence that you specify on the menu in the SSU MultiBoot Group will determine the boot order. If secure mode is enabled (a user password is set), then you will be prompted for a password before the server fully boots. If secure mode is enabled and the “Secure Boot Mode” option is also enabled, the server will fully boot but will require a password before accepting any keyboard or mouse input. Checking the Power Cords WARNING Do not attempt to modify or use AC power cords that are not the exact type required. In some cases the power cord supplied with this system may not be compatible with the AC wall outlet in your region. If this is true, you must obtain a suitable power cord that meets the following criteria: • The cord must be rated for the available AC voltage and have a current rating that is at least 125% of the current rating of the server. • The AC plug end that plugs into the wall outlet must be terminated in a grounding-type plug designed for use in your region. The plug ends must be labeled or marked to indicate an acceptable certifier in your region has certified them. • The connector that plugs into the AC inlet on the server must be an IEC 320, sheet C13, female type connector. • For use in Europe, the cord must be less than 4.5 meters (14.76 feet) long, and it must be flexible(harmonized) or VDE certified cordage. Description 23 Equipment Rack Precautions SAFETY WARNINGS 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 anchors must be able to withstand a force of up to 113 kg (250 lbs.). 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. CAUTIONS 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 1,500 Btu’s per hour for each server. The rack selected and the ventilation provided must be suitable to the environment in which the server will be used. 24 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide 2 Upgrading and Installing Server Components Tools and Supplies Needed • • • • Phillips (cross head) screwdriver (#1 bit and #2 bit) Jumper removal tool or needle nosed pliers Pen or pencil Anti-static wrist strap and conductive foam pad (recommended) Warnings and Cautions These warnings and cautions apply throughout this chapter. Only a technically qualified person should access the inside of the system. SAFETY WARNINGS System power on/off: To remove power from system, you must press the power button off and unplug the AC power cords from the wall outlet or the system. Hazardous conditions, power supply: Hazardous voltage, current, and energy levels are present inside the power supply. There are no user-serviceable parts inside it; servicing should be done by technically qualified personnel. Hazardous conditions, devices, and cables: Hazardous electrical conditions may be present on power, telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the system and disconnect the power cords, telecommunications systems, networks, and modems attached to the system before opening it. Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage can result. CAUTIONS Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection: ESD can damage disk drives, boards, and other parts. We recommend that you do all procedures in this chapter only at an ESD-protected workstation. If one is not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an anti-static wrist strap attached to chassis groundany unpainted metal surfaceon your system when handling parts. 25 ESD and handling boards: Always handle boards carefully. They can be extremely sensitive to ESD. Hold boards only by their edges. After removing a board from its protective wrapper or from the system, place it component-side UP on a grounded, static-free surface. If you place the baseboard on a conductive surface, the battery leads may short out. If they do, this will result in a loss of CMOS data and will drain the battery. Use a conductive foam pad if available but NOT the board wrapper. Do not slide board over any surface. Cooling and airflow: For proper cooling and airflow, always install the chassis access cover before turning on the system. Operating the system without the cover in place can damage system parts. Installing or removing jumpers: A jumper is a small plastic encased conductor that slips over two jumper pins. Some jumpers have a small tab on top that you can grip with your fingertips or with a pair of small or fine needle nosed pliers. If your jumpers do not have such a tab, take care when using needle nosed pliers to remove or install a jumper; grip the narrow sides of the jumper with the pliers, never the wide sides. Gripping the wide sides can damage the contacts inside the jumper, causing intermittent problems with the function controlled by that jumper. Take care to grip with, but not squeeze, the pliers or other tool you use to remove a jumper, or you may bend or break the stake pins on the board. 26 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide Bezel Opening and Closing the Front Bezel With the bezel open you have access to all of your system’s front panel functions and indicators. With the bezel closed you can protect critical functions and still view the system’s indicators. To open the bezel, do the following: 1. Stand in front of the chassis and grasp the edges of the bezel from each side. 2. Gently pull the bezel towards you until it begins to separate from the chassis. As the bezel separates from the chassis, allow it to swing to its open position situated below the chassis. 3.

Upgrading and Installing Server Components 29 Processors WARNING If the server has been running, any installed processor and heat sink on the processor board(s) will be hot. To avoid the possibility of a burn, be careful when removing or installing server board components that are located near processors. CAUTIONS Processor must be appropriate: You may damage the server if you install a processor that is inappropriate for your server. Make sure your server can handle a newer, faster processor (thermal and power considerations). For exact information about processor interchangeability, contact your customer service representative or visit the Intel Customer Support web site: http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/LB440gx Heat sink must be appropriate: Depending on your configuration, the existing processor may have a passive heat sink. If you REPLACE the processor with a faster one, it must have an active fan heat sink (powered fan instead of a passive heat sink). If you ADD a second processor, it must have a fan heat sink. When adding a processor, you must leave the existing one in the primary connector (closest to the DIMM slots on the server board). ESD and handling processors: Reduce the risk of electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage to the processor by doing the following: (1) Touch the metal chassis before touching the processor or server board. Keep part of your body in contact with the metal chassis to dissipate the static charge while handling the processor. (2) Avoid moving around unnecessarily. 30 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide Installing a Processor The server supports up to two Intel Pentium II or Pentium III processors (with 100 MHz system bus). If you are installing two processors, make sure they are the same speed, voltage, and stepping. 1. Observe the safety and ESD precautions at the beginning of this chapter and the additional cautions given here. 2. Remove the new processor from its anti-static package and place it on a grounded, static free surface or conductive foam pad. 3. Attach the small end of the power cable to the fan connector on the S.E.C. cartridge, then attach the connector (E) to the 3-pin signal prongs (F) on the server board. A E F C D B OM09315 Figure 8.

Push down firmly, with even pressure on both sides of the top, until the processor is seated. 5. To lock in the processor, push the latches inward on the retention module until they click into place. The latches must be secured for proper electrical connection of the processor. 6. After you have installed the processor, you must configure its speed in BIOS set-up. Upgrading and Installing Server Components 31 CAUTION, SINGLE-PROCESSOR CONFIGURATIONS If you install only one processor in a system, it must go in the primary connector (closest to the DIMM sockets). With a single-processor configuration, you must install a termination board and termination latch assembly (A) in the empty secondary connector (B) to ensure proper operation of your system. A termination board is provided with your system. A B OM09328 Figure 9. Installing a Termination Board A. B. Terminator Latch Assembly (TLA) Secondary retention mechanism Removing a Processor If your server has one processor and you are REPLACING it, leave the termination board intact in the secondary connector. Remove the processor you want to replace. If your server has two processors and you are REPLACING one or both, remove the appropriate one(s). 1. Observe the safety and ESD precautions at the beginning of this chapter and the additional cautions given here. If the processor has a fan heat sink, disconnect the power wire (E in Figure 8) from the connector on the server board (F in Figure 8). 2. As you work, place boards and processors on a grounded, static free surface or conductive foam pad. 3. Press the processor latches away from the center of the S.E.C. cartridge (A in Figure 8) to free them from the retention module (B in Figure 8). 4. Lift the S.E.C. cartridge upward, out of the retention module. 5. Put the processor in a piece of conductive foam and store in an anti-static package. 32 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide Memory Installing DIMMs The server only supports 100 MHz PC/100-compliant SDRAM. • Install from 32 MB to 2 GB of unbuffered memory, using up to four single or double-banked DIMMs • Or Install from 32 MB to 2 GB of registered memory, using up to four single or double-banked DIMMs Installed DIMMs must be the same speed and either all registered or all unbuffered. For a list of supported memory, call your service representative or visit the Intel Support website: Http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/l440gx/compat.htm CAUTION Use extreme care when installing a DIMM. Applying too much pressure can damage the socket. DIMMs are keyed and can be inserted in only one way. Mixing dissimilar metals may cause later memory failures resulting in data corruption. Only install DIMMs with gold-plated edge connectors in gold-plated sockets. To install your memory: 1. Observe the safety and ESD precautions at the beginning of this chapter. 2. Open your server. 3.

Mount the brackets mid-way down the sides of the system as shown in the figure. ✏ NOTE You can also mount the bracket so that the flange is flush with the front panel. A B OM09335 Figure 22. Mounting the Front Brackets Midway Along the System 2. Mount the bracket to the center channel of the relay rack. To complete the installation, bolt the system’s front brackets to the cabinet using the mounting bolts (A in Figure 23) supplied by the cabinet manufacturer. A A OM09347 Figure 23. Mounting the Front Brackets to the Relay Rack 44 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide Installing the Rail Rack and Racking the System (Optional Accessory) The rail kit that comes with your system allows you to install it into a four-post, network server cabinet (e.g. APC Netshelter). If the cabinet is not of this general type, you will have to purchase a separate rail kit that is specific to your cabinet. Follow these steps to install the rail kit and place your system into the cabinet. 1. Assemble tools and miscellaneous parts. You will need a Phillips screwdriver and assorted lock washers and nuts. 2. Remove the inside piece (C in Figure 24) from both sides of the rail system. To remove an inside piece of the rail system, slide the part as far out as you can. This action reveals a brass colored finger tab (D in Figure 24) that when depressed allows you to completely separate the inside rail piece from the outer (A in Figure 24) and middle (B in Figure 24) rail pieces. 3. Align each inside rail (A in Figure 25) to a side of the chassis. Be sure that the flat end of the inside rail is toward the front of the chassis and that the brass colored finger tab (D in Figure 25) is facing outward. With the holes in the chassis (C in Figure 25) aligned with the holes in the rail, fasten the rail using the largest screws (B in Figure 25) supplied with the rail kit. D D A B C OM09132 Figure 24. Rail System C D A B OM09133 Figure 25. Aligning Rail to Chassis Upgrading and Installing Server Components 45 4. Here is a combination side and rear view (Figure 26) of the chassis after the right inside rail has been attached. Figure 26. Chassis Rear and Side View 5. Locate the front and rear rail brackets for one side of the rail kit. One pair (A and B in Figure 27) exists for each side of the cabinet rack. B A OM09145 Figure 27. Rail Brackets 6. Attach all four rail brackets to the cabinet rack. Be sure that the sharper angled side of each bracket is facing up (C in Figure 28). Use eight mounting screws (D in Figure 28) provided by the manufacturer of the cabinet rack. In the illustration to the right, the left photo (A in Figure 28) shows the left-front bracket attached to the cabinet, while the right photo (B in Figure 28) shows the left-rear bracket. (The photo shows the rails inside the brackets. You should not have the rails attached inside the brackets yet.) C C D D A B OM09142 Figure 28. Attaching Rail Brackets to Cabinet Rack 46 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide 7. Attach the side rail system’s outer pieces (total of two) to the rail brackets you installed in step six. To attach the front part of an outer piece to a rail bracket, you must reveal the access hole (A in Figure 29) by sliding the innermost piece toward the back. Once you see the access hole, align it with the slot in the rail bracket such that you can secure the bolt. Do not tighten the nut and bolt until you have aligned the rear portion of the rail system (see the next step). C A B OM09138 Figure 29. Attaching Outer Pieces to Rail Brackets C 8. To attach the rear part of the rail system to the rear rail bracket (A in Figure 30), slide the rail system within the rail brackets such that you can place a bolt through the rail’s hole (B in Figure 30) and into the rail bracket’s slot. Loosely tighten the bolt and nut. You should be able to slide the entire rail system back and forth in the rail brackets. When you have centered the rails in the bracket, tighten the fastening bolts and nuts. A B OM09144 Figure 30. Attaching Rail System to Rear Rail Bracket Upgrading and Installing Server Components 47 9. Extend the right and left rails (A in Figure 31) so they fully extend in front of the cabinet rack. The rail system is now ready to receive the chassis. A A OM09141 Figure 31. Extending the Rails 10. Lift the chassis with its front facing you and carefully guide the inner rail (A in Figure 32), which is mounted to the chassis system, into the outer pieces (B in Figure 32) you attached in previous steps. Gently move the system evenly towards the rear of the cabinet. Be sure to depress the brass colored finger tabs located in the center of each inner side rail piece as you slide the chassis back. A B OM09143 Figure 32. Guiding Chassis into the Rack 11. With the chassis fully inserted into the cabinet rack, you can easily access both the front and rear of the system.

Run the SSU to restore the configuration settings to the RTC. 50 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide 3 Configuration Software and Utilities This chapter describes the Power On Self Test (POST) and server configuration utilities. The table below briefly describes the utilities. Table 4. Configuration Utilities Utility Description and brief procedure Page BIOS Setup If the system does not have a diskette drive, or the drive is disabled or mis-configured, use Setup to enable it. 53 Or, you can move the CMOS jumper on the server board from the default setting (Protect CMOS memory) to the Clear setting; this will allow most server configurations to boot. For the procedure to do this, see the section “CMOS Jumper” in Chapter 5 in this manual. Then run the SSU to configure the server. System Setup Utility (SSU) Use for extended system configuration of onboard resources and addin boards, and for viewing the system event log, setting boot device priority, or setting system security options. 67 The SSU may be run from either the Server Configuration CD or from a DOS-bootable diskette. Information entered via the SSU overrides information entered via BIOS Setup. EMP Console Use to access and monitor the server remotely. 79 FRUSDR Load Utility Use to update the Field Replacement Unit (FRU), Sensor Data Record (SDR), and Desktop Management Interface (DMI) flash components. 92 BIOS Update Utility Use to update the BIOS or recover from a corrupted BIOS update. 95 Firmware Update Utility Use to update BMC and HSC flash ROM. 98 Using the Adaptec SCSI Utility Use to configure or view the settings of the SCSI host adapters and onboard SCSI devices in the server. 99 Hot Keys Use the keyboard’s numeric pad to enter numbers and symbols. Table 5. Hot Keys To do this: Press these keys Clear memory and reload the operating systemthis is a system reset. Secure your system immediately. +hotkey (Set your hot key combination with the SSU or Setup.) 51 Power On Self Test (POST) Each time you turn on the system, POST starts running. POST checks the server board, processor, memory, keyboard, and most installed peripheral devices. During the memory test, POST displays the amount of memory that it is able to access and test. The length of time needed to test memory depends on the amount of memory installed. POST is stored in flash memory. 1. Turn on your video monitor and server. After a few seconds POST begins to run. 2. After the memory test, these screen prompts and messages appear until POST completes or until the user presses F2: Press key if you want to run SETUP Keyboard.....Detected Mouse........Detected 3. During peripheral device detection, the following message appears: Press to enter SCSI Utility 4. Press if there are SCSI devices installed. When the utility opens, follow the displayed instructions to configure the onboard SCSI host adapter settings and to run the SCSI utilities. Also see “Using the Adaptec SCSI Utility” on page 99. If you do not enter the SCSI utility, the boot process continues. 5. Press during POST to pop up a boot menu when POST finishes. From this menu you can choose the boot device or enter BIOS Setup. After POST completes, the system beeps once. What appears on the screen after this depends on whether you have an operating system loaded and if so, which one. If the system halts before POST completes running, it emits a beep code indicating a fatal system error that requires immediate attention. If POST can display a message on the video display screen, it causes the speaker to beep twice as the message appears. Note the screen display and write down the beep code you hear; this information is useful for your service representative. For a listing of beep codes and error messages that POST can generate, see the “Solving Problems” chapter in this manual. 52 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide Using BIOS Setup This section describes the BIOS Setup options. Use Setup to change the server configuration. You can run Setup with or without an operating system being present. Setup stores most of the configuration values in battery backed CMOS; the rest of the values are stored in flash memory. The values take effect when you boot the server. POST uses these values to configure the hardware; if the values and the actual hardware do not agree, POST generates an error message. You must then run Setup to specify the correct configuration. Run Setup: You may run Setup to modify such server board feature as: • • • • • • • • Select diskette drive Select parallel port Select serial port Set time/date (to be stored in RTC) Configure IDE hard drive Specify boot device sequence Enable SCSI BIOS View processor speed Run SSU, not Setup: You must run the SSU instead of Setup to do the following: • • • Add or remove any ISA board that is not Plug and Play-compatible Enter or change information about a board Alter server resources (such as interrupts, memory addresses, I/O assignments) to user selected choices instead of choices selected by the BIOS resource manager Record Your Setup Settings If the values ever need to be restored (after a CMOS clear, for example), you must run Setup again. Referring to the worksheets could make your task easier. If You Cannot Access Setup If the diskette drive is mis-configured so that you cannot access it to run a utility from a diskette, you may need to clear CMOS memory. You will need to open the server, change a jumper setting, use Setup to check and set diskette drive options, and change the jumper back. For a step-by-step procedure, see Chapter 5, under the heading, “CMOS Jumper.” Configuration Software and Utilities 53 Starting Setup You can enter Setup after power on or reset by pressing F2. After booting, you will see the following prompt: Press to enter SETUP If CMOS/NVRAM has been corrupted, you will see other prompts: Warning: cmos checksum invalid Error 0271: check date and time settings In this condition, the BIOS will load default values for CMOS and attempt to boot.

For the ISP2150 system, the SSU framework supports the following functions and capabilities: • assigns resources to baseboard devices and add-in cards prior to loading the operating system (OS) • allows you to specify boot device order and system security options • permits viewing and clearing of the system’s system event log • allows troubleshooting of the server when the OS is not operational • provides a system level view of the server’s I/O devices Configuration Software and Utilities 67 When to Run the System Setup Utility The SSU is a DOS-based utility that supports extended system configuration operations for onboard resources and add-in boards. You can also view the system event log and to set system boot and security options. Use the SSU when you need to: • add and remove boards affecting the assignment of resources (ports, memory, IRQs, DMA) • modify the server’s boot device order or security settings • change the server configuration settings • save the server configuration • view or clear the system event log If you install or remove an ISA add-in board, you must run the SSU to reconfigure the server. Running the SSU is optional for PCI and Plug and Play ISA add-in boards. The SSU is PCI aware, and it complies with the ISA Plug and Play specifications. The SSU works with any compliant configuration (.CFG) files supplied by the peripheral device manufacturer. The I/O baseboard comes with a .CFG file. The .CFG file describes the characteristics of the board and the system resources that it requires. The configuration registers on PCI and ISA Plug and Play add-in boards contain the same type of information that is in a .CFG file. Some ISA boards also come with a .CFG file. The SSU uses the information provided by .CFG files, configuration registers, FLASH, and the information that you enter, to specify a system configuration. The SSU writes the configuration information to flash memory. The SSU stores configuration values in FLASH memory. These values take effect when you boot the server. POST checks the values against the actual hardware configuration; if they do not agree, POST generates an error message. You must then run the SSU to specify the correct configuration before the server boots. The SSU always includes a checksum with the configuration data so the BIOS can detect any potential data corruption before the actual hardware configuration takes place. What You Need to Do The SSU may be run directly from the Server Resource CD by booting the server system to the CD and selecting “Utilities” or from a set of DOS diskettes. If you choose to run the SSU from a set of DOS diskettes, you must create the SSU diskettes from the Server Resource CD by booting to the CD and selecting “Create Diskettes.” Alternatively, if you have a Windows 98 or Windows NT workstation, you can insert the CD into that system and create diskettes from the “Utilities” menu of the graphical user interface. If your diskette drive is disabled, or improperly configured, you must use the flash resident Setup utility to enable it so that you can use the SSU. If necessary, you can disable the drive after you exit the SSU. Information entered using the SSU overrides any entered using Setup. 68 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide Running the SSU • • Running the SSU Locally Running the ssu.bat file provided on the SSU media starts the SSU. If the server boots directly from the SSU media, the ssu.bat file is automatically run. If it boots from a different media, the SSU can be started manually or by another application. When the SSU starts in the local execution mode (the default mode), the SSU accepts input from the keyboard and/or mouse. The SSU presents a VGA based Graphical User Interface (GUI) on the primary monitor. The SSU runs from writable, non-writable, removable, and non-removable media. If the SSU is run from non-writable media, user preference settings (such as screen colors) can not be saved. The SSU supports the ROM-DOS V6.22 operating system. It may run on other ROM-DOScompatible operating systems but they are not supported. The SSU will not operate from a “DOS box” running under an operating system such as Windows. Running the SSU Remotely Running the SSU remotely requires a remote server with a LANDesk Server Monitor Module 2 (SMM2) card and a local system with Remote Control software available. The SMM2 card provides video memory, keyboard, and mouse redirection support for the remote server. The Remote Control console of the local system displays and sends video memory and user input to the remote server through either a modem or an Ethernet link. Because the SSU runs exclusively on the remote server, any files required for the SSU to run must be available on the remote server (on removable or non-removable media). If you connect the local system to the remote server through a network or modem you can see the console, control the mouse, and control the keyboard of the remote server. Starting the SSU SSU consists of a collection of task oriented modules plugged into a common framework called the Application Framework (AF). The Application Framework provides a launching point for individual tasks and a location for setting customization information. For full functionality the SSU requires the availability of the AF.INI, AF.HLP, plus any .ADN files and their associated .HLP and .INI files. 1. Turn on your video monitor and your system. 2. There are two ways to start the SSU. a. After creating set of three SSU diskettes from the CD: Insert the first SSU diskette in drive A, and to reboot your server from the diskette. b. Directly from the Server Resource CD: Insert the Server Resource CD into your CD ROM drive and press to reboot. When prompted to do so, press to enter BIOS Setup. From the Boot Menu, select the Boot Device Priority option and then select CD-ROM as your primary boot device. Save those settings and exit BIOS Setup. The server will boot from the CD-ROM and display a menu of options. Follow the instructions in the menu to start the SSU. 3. When the SSU title appears on the screen, press to continue. 4. The mouse driver loads if it is available, press to continue. Configuration Software and Utilities 69 5. This message appears: Please wait while the Application Framework loads.... 6. When the main window of the SSU appears, you can customize the user interface before continuing. Figure 35. System Setup Utility Main Window 70 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide Customizing the SSU The SSU lets you customize the user interface according to your preferences. The AF sets these preferences and saves them in the AF.INI file so that they take effect the next time you start the SSU. There are four user customizable settings: • Color - this button lets you change the default colors associated with different items on the screen with predefined color combinations. The color changes are instantaneous. • Mode - this button lets you set the desired expertise level. novice • • intermediate expert The expertise level determines which tasks are visible in the Available Tasks section and what actions each task performs. For a new mode setting to take effect, you must exit the SSU and restart it. Language - this button lets you change the strings in the SSU to strings of the appropriate language. For a new language setting to take effect, you must exit the SSU and restart it. Other - this button lets you change other miscellaneous options in the SSU. The changes take effect immediately. To change the interface default values: Use the mouse to click on the proper button in the Preferences section of the SSU Main window. or Use the tab and arrow keys to highlight the desired button, and press the spacebar or . or Access the menu bar with the mouse or hot keys (Alt + underlined letter). ✏ NOTE If you run the SSU from non-writable media (like a CD-ROM), these preferences will be lost when you exit the SSU. Launching a Task It is possible to have many tasks open at the same time, although some tasks may require complete control to avoid possible conflicts.

Closing the window by clicking on the system menu, the dash in the upper left corner, discards all changes. Defining an ISA Card An ISA card usually comes with a vendor created .CFG file that specifies the resources the card requires to function properly. If the .CFG file is unavailable, you must manually create it or define the card through the SSU. Defining an ISA card consists of specifying the name of the card and the resources it consumes. This allows the RCA to consider the ISA card resource requirements when the RCA tries to resolve conflicts. The information is also used by the system BIOS to configure the hardware when the system is booted. 1. To add or remove ISA card resources, click on the appropriate resource buttons, select the desired value, and click on Add or Remove. 2. After you complete the necessary information, click on Save. 3. To edit a card, click on Load to retrieve the card information. After making changes, click on Save. 4.

Configuration Software and Utilities 77 Platform Event Paging With Platform Event Paging (PEP), your server can be configured to automatically dial up a paging service and page you when a server management related event occurs. Platform events include temperature out-of-range, voltage out-of-range, chassis intrusion, and fan failure. If PEP is enabled and the BMC receives or detects a new event, it automatically sends a page. It can send a page if the processors are down or if the system software is unavailable. PEP needs an external modem connected to the server’s EMP (Emergency Management Port) serial connection. This is typically the COM2 serial connector. Verify in BIOS Setup of your server board whether or not your system BIOS includes PEP. If not you can download it from the Intel Customer Support website when it becomes available. http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/LB440gx Using Platform Event Paging 1. 2. 3. 4. Enter Setup. Enter the PEP Management submenu from the Server Menu. Set the PEP Enable field to Enable. Enter your page string in the PEP Page String field. This consists of the attention command for you modem (generally ATDT), the number of your paging service, several commas (each comma is a 1 second pause), the number/message you wish to appear on your pager, and the hang-up command for your modem (generally ATH). You will need to experiment with the timing to ensure you are paged properly. Set the Send Test Page field to Send Test Page Now to generate a test page. 5. If you wish to filter events so that only certain events will originate a page, enter the PEP Filter submenu. a. Set the PEF Enable field to Enable. b. Enable all of the events about which you want to be paged. c. Escape out of the PEP Filter submenu. 6. Set the time between pages with the Page Blackout Field. If you want to wait five minutes between pages, set it to 5. The range is from 0 to 255 minutes. 7. Exit BIOS Setup. 78 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide Emergency Management Port Console The Emergency Management Port (EMP) Console is a software application designed to run on a Windows 98 or Windows NT 4.0 workstation and provides a server administrator’s interface to the Emergency Management Port (EMP) of the ISP2150 server. This interface allows remote server management via a modem or direct connection. The server control operations available with EMP Console are: • Connecting to remote servers • Powering the server on or off • Resetting the server The EMP Console uses three management plug-ins to monitor the server: • SEL Viewer • SDR Viewer • FRU Viewer The EMP Console also has Phonebook plug-in that can be used to create and maintain a list of servers and their phone numbers. Configuration Software and Utilities 79 How EMP Console Works The EMP shares use of the COM2 port with the system on the server. When the EMP has control of the port, the port operates in command mode. When the system has control, the port operates in console redirect mode. When connecting to a server, the EMP Console checks to determine the mode of the COM2 port. The following discussion covers how EMP Console functions in each mode: • Command mode is the default COM2 state. In this state, EMP Console communicates with the server’s firmware, allowing the client to remotely reset or power the server up or down. The client can also view the server’s System Event Log (SEL), Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) information, or Sensor Data Record (SDR) table. • In console redirect mode, EMP Console serves as a PC ANSI terminal window for BIOS console redirection. Commands typed in this terminal window are transmitted through BIOS to the server’s console, and text displayed on the server console is displayed on the EMP Console’s terminal window. In this mode, you can remotely view boot messages, access BIOS setup, and run DOS text mode applications through the EMP Console’s terminal window. Figure 36. EMP Console in Command State 80 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide Figure 37. EMP Console in Redirect State Figure 37 shows EMP Console window in redirect mode with the terminal window. The text that appears on the server monitor displays in the Redirect window. Availability of the various EMP Console features are determined by two factors: the BIOS EMP access mode and if the server’s COM2 port is configured for console redirection. The three EMP access modes are disabled, pre-boot, and always active. Table 6. EMP Console Access Modes (Server configured for console redirection) Mode Server is powered off During BIOS POST After OS boots Disabled Redirect window appears, but is blank Redirect window Redirect window Pre-boot EMP commands available Redirect window* Redirect window Always Active EMP commands available Redirect window* EMP commands available * The operation mode can be modified by selections in the Reset and Power on/off dialogs. These are server control dialogs available in EMP Console. Configuration Software and Utilities 81 Table 7.

Operating Systems: • • Windows 98 16 MB of RAM, 32 MB recommended 20 MB disk space Windows NT Windows NT 4.0 24 MB of RAM, 32 MB recommended 20 MB disk space Client Configuration: EMP Console supports all COM ports on the client system, along with any Windows NT/98 compatible modem. Server Configuration: EMP Console requires the server’s COM2 port to be connected to an external modem or directly connected to a serial cable. Direct Connect Configuration: A null modem serial cable is needed. Connect one end of the cable to the COM2 port of server and the other to a port on the client machine. Modem Configuration: On the client, EMP Console uses the Windows Application Program Interface (API) to determine if a modem is connected and available. The EMP Console does not configure the modem; it should be preconfigured through Windows. For modem support, the server must use a Hayes compatible modem that supports a baud rate of 19.2k. The modem must be on the Windows 98 or NT Hardware Compatibility List provided by Microsoft. The server modem must be set in auto-answer mode for EMP Console to be able to connect to it. 82 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide Setting up the Server for the EMP To use the EMP, you must configure the server’s BIOS with specific settings. These settings are found in two submenus of the BIOS Server menu, the System Management Submenu and the Console Redirection submenu. The BIOS settings section, found earlier in this document, shows all the available options. This section focuses on the settings that must be configured in order to use the EMP. System Management Submenu All EMP related settings occur in the Server main menu. Change only the items below; all other default settings should remain the same. EMP Password Switch & EMP Password: Anytime an attempt to initiate a connection is made, a prompt for the user password appears. If no EMP password is setup, then anyone can access the EMP by clicking OK. In the EMP Password area of the Server menu, the EMP Password Switch option must be set to enable. Then type in a password of up to eight alphanumeric characters. If a beep is heard, the password was accepted. EMP Access Modes: Choose either Disabled, Pre-boot, or Always Active, depending on the type of EMP access needed. The tables above show what is available with a given setting. EMP Restricted Mode Access: Set Restricted Mode to either enabled or disabled as needed. If in enabled mode, this means that EMP Console’s server control options, Power off and Reset, are unavailable, except power on. In disabled mode, these same server control options are available. EMP Direct Connect/Modem Mode: Select Direct Connect if a null modem serial cable directly connects the server’s COM2 port to the EMP Console client machine. If they are connected via a modem, select Modem Mode. Console Redirection Submenu The settings in the Console Redirection Submenu of the Server menu must be set exactly as noted to be able to use the EMP. COM Port Address: Select 2F8. This is the COM2 port that must be used by the EMP. The IRQ# setting is automatically populated with the correct number based on the COM Port Address choice. Baud Rate: Select 19.2k. Flow Control: Choose CTS/RTS + CD.

Configuration Software and Utilities 91 FRUSDR Load Utility The Field Replacement Unit (FRU) and Sensor Data Record (SDR) Load Utility is a DOS-based program used to update the server management subsystem’s product level FRU, SDR, and the Desktop Management Interface (DMI) nonvolatile storage components (EEPROMs). The load utility • discovers the product configuration based on instructions in a master configuration file • displays the FRU information • updates the nonvolatile storage device (EEPROM) associated with the Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) that holds the SDR and FRU area • updates the DMI area located in the BIOS nonvolatile storage device • generically handles FRU devices that may not be associated with the BMC When to Run the FRUSDR Load Utility You should run the FRUSDR Load Utility each time you upgrade or replace the hardware in your server, excluding add-in boards, hard drives, and RAM. For example, if you replace an array of fans, you need to run the utility. It programs the sensors that need to be monitored for server management. Because the firmware must reload to properly initialize the sensors after programming, turn the server off and remove the AC power cords from the server. Wait approximately 60 seconds, and reconnect the power cords. What You Need to Do The FRUSDR Load Utility may be run directly from the Configuration Software CD or from a diskette you create from the CD. It can be extracted from the CD by booting to the CD and selecting “Make Diskettes” or by inserting the CD into a PC running Windows 98 or NT and selecting the “Utilities” section. ✏ NOTE If your diskette drive is disabled, or improperly configured, you must use BIOS Setup to enable it. If necessary, you can disable the drive after you are done with the FRUSDR utility. 92 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide How You Use the FRUSDR Load Utility This utility is compatible with ROM-DOS Ver. 6.22, MS-DOS† Ver. 6.22, and later versions. The utility accepts CFG, SDR and FRU load files. The executable file for the utility is frusdr.exe. The utility requires the following supporting files: • one or more .fru files describing the system’s field replaceable units • a .cfg file describing the system configuration • a .sdr file describing the sensors in the system Command Line Format The basic command line format is frusdr [/?] [/h] [/d {dmi, fru, sdr}] [/cfg filename.cfg] /p Command Description frusdr Is the name of the utility. /? or /h Displays usage information. /d {dmi, fru, sdr} Only displays requested area. /cfg filename.cfg Uses custom CFG file. /p Pause between blocks of data. Parsing the Command Line The FRUSDR Load Utility allows only one command line function at a time. A command line function may consist of two parameters; for example, cfg filename.cfg. Any invalid parameters result in displaying an error message and exiting the program. You can use either a slash (/) or a minus sign (-) to specify command line options. The /p flag may be used in conjunction with any of the other options. Displaying Usage Information When the utility is run with the /? or /h command line flags, the following message is displayed: FRU & SDR Load Utility Version 3.0 Usage: Frusdr Is the name of the utility. /? Or /h Displays usage information. /d {dmi,fru,sdr} Only displays requested area. /cfg filename.cfg Uses custom CFG file. /p Pause between blocks of data. Displaying a Given Area When the utility is run with the /d DMI, /d FRU, or /d SDR command line flag, the indicated area is displayed. Each area represents a sensor; one sensor for each instrumented device in the server. If the given display function fails because of an inability to parse the data present or a hardware failure, the utility displays an error message and exits. Configuration Software and Utilities 93 Displaying DMI Area The DMI area is displayed in ASCII format when the field is ASCII or as a number when the field is a number. Each DMI area displayed is headed with the DMI area designated name. Each field has a field name header followed by the field in ASCII or as a number. Displaying FRU Area The FRU area is displayed in ASCII format when the field is ASCII or as a number when the field is a number. Each FRU area displayed is headed with the FRU area designated name. Each field has a field name header followed by the field in ASCII or as a number. The Board, Chassis, and Product FRU areas end with an END OF FIELDS CODE that indicates there is no more data in this area. The Internal Use area is displayed in hex format, 16 bytes per line. Displaying SDR Area The SDR nonvolatile storage area is displayed in the following hex format. The data is separated by a Sensor Record Number X header, where X is the number of that sensor record in the SDR area. The next line after the header is the sensor record data in hex format delineated by spaces. Each line holds up to 16 bytes. The data on each line is followed by the same data in ASCII format; nonprintable characters are substituted by a period (.). Using Specified CFG File The utility can be run with the command line parameter of -cfg filename.cfg. The filename can be any DOS accepted, eight-character filename string. The utility loads the specified CFG file and uses the entries in the configuration file to probe the hardware and to select the proper SDRs to load into nonvolatile storage. Displaying Utility Title and Version The utility displays its title: FRU & SDR Load Utility, Version 3.0 Where X.XX is the revision number for the utility. Configuration File The configuration file is in ASCII text. The utility executes commands formed by the strings present in the configuration file. These commands cause the utility to perform various tasks needed to ultimately load the proper SDRs into the nonvolatile storage of the BMC and possibly generic FRU devices. Some of the commands may be interactive and require you to make a choice. Prompting for Product Level FRU Information Through the use of a Configuration File, the utility may prompt you for FRU information. Filtering Sensor Data Record From the SDR File The MASTER.SDR file has all the possible SDRs for the system. These records may need to be filtered based on the current product configuration. The configuration file directs the filtering of the SDRs. 94 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide Updating the SDR Nonvolatile Storage Area After the utility validates the header area of the supplied SDR file, it updates the SDR repository area. Before programming, the utility clears the SDR repository area. The SDR file is loaded via the .cfg File. Then the utility filters all tagged SDRs depending on the product configuration set in the Configuration File. Nontagged SDRs are automatically programmed. It contains an image of what was loaded, and the TMP file is also useful for debugging the server. Updating FRU Nonvolatile Storage Area After the configuration is determined, the utility updates the FRU nonvolatile storage area. First it verifies the Common Header area and checksum from the specified FRU file. The Internal Use Area is read out of the specified .FRU file and is programmed into the nonvolatile storage. The Chassis, Board, Product and MultiRecord areas are read out of the specified .FRU file, if they exist, then those areas are programmed into the FRU nonvolatile storage. Updating DMI FRU Nonvolatile Storage Area After programming the BMC FRU area, the utility then programs the following Chassis, Board, and Product FRU information to the DMI fields, but only when dictated by the Configuration File. If a failure occurs, the utility displays an error message and exits. Cleaning Up and Exiting If an update was successfully performed, the utility displays an appropriate message and then exits with a DOS exit code of zero. If the utility fails, it immediately exits with an error message and a non-zero DOS exit code.

Resetting the System To do this: Press: Soft boot reset, which clears system memory and reloads the operating system. or Reset button on system front panel Cold boot reset. Turn the system power off and then on. This clears system memory, restarts POST, reloads the operating system, and halts power to all peripherals. Power off/on Fault Resilient Booting Fault resilient booting insures the system will not stop from a boot problem. Two sets of timers are implemented in the BMC that will automatically reset the system if the system should halt for some reason. • FRB 2 - 5 sec timer. If the primary processor does not come up in 5 seconds the system will automatically reset and switch to the secondary processor (if installed). If a second processor is not installed, the system will try to restart off the primary processor. • FRB 3 - 7 minute timer. If the system does not make it up to the end of POST in 7 minutes, the system will automatically reset and try again. It is assumed that the processor failed regardless of what may have caused the system to hang. The primary processor is taken off line and the system will boot off the secondary (if installed otherwise it will try to restart again off of the primary). Bad memory or a bad plug in card may cause an FRB 3 failure. All failures are logged to the system event log. The system will remember all FRB errors and display them at the end of POST until you select the Processor Retest option from the BIOS Setup utility. Initial System Startup Incorrect installation or configuration usually causes problems that occur at initial system startup. Hardware failure is a less frequent cause. 101 Checklist q Are all cables correctly connected and secured? q Are the processors or processor termination board fully seated in their slots on the server board? q Are all add-in PCI boards fully seated in their slots on the riser card? q Are all switch and jumper settings on the server board correct? q Are all jumper and switch settings on add-in boards and peripheral devices correct?

Solving Problems 107 ✏ NOTE Front panel hard disk LED indicates IDE and SCSI devices: The hard disk drive activity light on the front panel lights when either an IDE hard disk drive, or a SCSI device controlled by the onboard SCSI host controller, is in use. This LED does not display CD-ROM activity. Cannot Connect to a Server q Make sure you are using the drivers that are shipped on the system Configuration Software CD for the onboard network controller. q Make sure the driver is loaded and the protocols are bound. q Make sure the network cable is securely attached to the connector at the system back panel and that the network controller Link LED is on (visible at back panel). If the cable is attached but the problem persists, try a different cable. q Make sure the hub port is configured for the same duplex mode as the network controller. q Check with your LAN administrator about the correct networking software that needs to be installed. q If you are directly connecting two servers (no hub), you will need a crossover cable (see your hub documentation for more information on crossover cables). q Check the network controller LEDs that are visible through an opening at the system back panel. Problems with Network The server hangs when the drivers are loaded. q Change the PCI BIOS interrupt settings. Try the “PCI Installation Tips” below. Diagnostics pass, but the connection fails. q Make sure the network cable is securely attached. q Make sure you specify the correct frame type in your NET.CFG file. The Link LED doesn’t light. q Make sure you have loaded the network drivers. q Check all cable connections. q Try another port on the hub. q Make sure you have the correct type of cable between the adapter and the hub. Some hubs require a crossover cable while others require a straight through cable (for more information on crossover cabling, see your hub documentation). The Activity LED doesn’t light. q Make sure you’ve loaded the correct network drivers. q Network may be idle. Try accessing a server. 108 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide The controller stopped working when an add-in adapter was installed. q Make sure the cable is connected to the port from the onboard network controller. q Make sure your PCI BIOS is current. Try the “PCI Installation Tips” below. q Make sure the other adapter supports shared interrupts. Also, make sure your operating system supports shared interrupts; OS/2† does not. q Try reseating the add in adapter. The add-in adapter stopped working without apparent cause. q Try reseating the adapter first; then try a different slot if necessary. q The network driver files may be corrupt or deleted. Delete and then reinstall the drivers. q Run the diagnostics. PCI Installation Tips Some common PCI tips are listed here. q Reserve interrupts (IRQs) and/or memory addresses specifically for ISA adapters. This prevents PCI cards from trying to use the same settings ISA cards are using. Use the SSU to keep track of ISA adapter resources. q Certain drivers may require interrupts that are not shared with other PCI drivers. The SSU can be used to adjust the interrupt numbers for PCI devices. For certain drivers, it may be necessary to alter settings so that interrupts are not shared. Problems with Application Software If you have problems with application software, do the following: q Verify that the software is properly configured for the system. See the software installation and operation documentation for instructions on setting up and using the software. q Try a different copy of the software to see if the problem is with the copy you are using. q Make sure all cables are installed correctly. q Verify that the server board jumpers are set correctly. See Chapter 5. q If other software runs correctly on the system, contact your vendor about the failing software. If the problem persists, contact the software vendor’s customer service representative for help. Bootable CD-ROM Is Not Detected Check the following: q Is the BIOS set to allow the CD-ROM to be the first bootable device? Solving Problems 109 Error and Informational Messages When you turn on the system, POST displays messages that provide information about the system. If a failure occurs, POST emits beep codes that indicate errors in hardware, software, or firmware. If POST can display a message on the video display screen, it causes the speaker to beep twice as the message appears. Port-80 Codes and Countdown Codes After the video adapter has been successfully initialized, the BIOS indicates the current testing phase during POST after the video adapter has been successfully initialized by outputting a 2-digit hex code to I/O location 80h. If a port-80h ISA POST card is installed, it displays the 2-digit code on a pair of hex display LEDs. Refer to the POST card documentation for a listing of specific errors. 110 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide 5 Technical Reference This chapter includes the following: • Environmental specifications • Board interrupts • Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) notices 111 Connectors The figure shows connector locations on the server board.

J2J1 J2J1 J2J1 PSWD CLR RCVRY BOOT BIOS WR EN General Procedure to Change Jumper Setting The short general procedure for changing a configuration setting is the same for most of the jumper functions, so we will describe it here. 1. Observe the safety and ESD precautions at the beginning of this chapter. 2. Turn off all connected peripherals, turn off system power, and disconnect the AC power cord. 3. Remove the cover. You do not need to remove the server board from the chassis, and you probably do not need to remove any add-in boards. 4. Locate the configuration jumpers at the edge of the server board toward the front of the system. 5. Move jumper to pins specified for the desired setting. 6. Reinstall the cover, connect the power cord, and turn on the system for the change to take effect. 7. You may need to repeat these steps to move the jumper back to its original setting, depending on the jumper function. 116 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide CMOS Jumper The jumper at pins 1, 2, and 3 controls whether settings stored in CMOS nonvolatile memory (NVRAM) are retained during a system reset. Procedure to restore the system’s CMOS and RTC to default values: 1. See “General Procedure to Change Jumper Setting” on page 116. 2. Move the CMOS jumper from pins 1 and 2 to pins 2 and 3 (the Clear CMOS memory position). 3. Reinstall the cover for your safety, and connect the power cord to the system. 4. Turn the system on. Wait for POST to complete and for the messages “NVRAM cleared by jumper” and “Press F2 to enter Setup” to appear. This automatically reprograms CMOS and RTC to their default settings. 5. Enter Setup and make any changes necessary (for example, changing the boot device). Press F10 to save the new Setup configuration and exit Setup. 6. Turn off the system, and disconnect the power cord from the system. 7. Again remove the cover. 8. Move the jumper from pins 2 and 3 back to pins 1 and 2 (the Protect CMOS memory position). 9.

Reinstall the cover, and connect the power cord to the system. 9. Run the SSU to specify a new password. See Chapter 3. Technical Reference 117 Recovery Boot Jumper The jumper at pins 9, 10, and 11 controls whether the system attempts to boot using the BIOS programmed in the boot block area of the FLASH memory. This should be used only if the operational area of the BIOS is corrupted or needs to be upgraded. Contact your local service representative before doing this. Procedure to disable recovery booting: 1. See “General Procedure to Change Jumper Setting” on page 116. 2. Move the recovery boot jumper from pins 9 and 10 to pins 10 and 11. 3. Reinstall the cover for your safety, connect the power cord to the system. 4. Turn the system on, and insert the Flash Memory Update Utility diskette in drive A. After the system boots, the speaker emits a single beep and the recovery process starts. This takes about two-to-four minutes. When the recovery process completes, the speaker emits two beeps. While in the recovery mode, there is no screen display on the monitor. The keyboard is disabled as the system automatically recovers the BIOS. The following beep codes describe the recovery status. Beep Code Message 2 Successful completion, no errors. 4 The system could not boot from the diskette. The diskette may not be bootable. Continuous series of low beeps The wrong BIOS recovery files are being used and/or the flash memory jumper is in the wrong position. 5. Turn the system off, disconnect the power cord(s) from the system, and remove the cover. 6. Move the jumper from pins 9 and 10 to pins 10 and 11 to enable the normal boot mode. 7. Replace the cover, remove the diskette from drive A, and connect the power cord(s) to the system. 8. After running the special recovery mode, run the SSU to specify a new password. See Chapter 3. Boot Block Write Protect Jumper The jumper at pins 13, 14, and 15 controls whether the BIOS boot block is protected from being erased and reprogrammed. CAUTION Leave boot block jumper at factory default setting: Programming the boot block incorrectly will prevent the system from booting. Programming should be done only by a technically qualified person. The procedure requires a special “Boot Block Update Utility.” Contact your dealer or sales representative for more information. 118 ISP2150 2U Rack Server Platform Product Guide Procedure to permit boot block erasing and programming: 1.

The anchors must be able to withstand a force of up to 113 kg (250 lbs). 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. The overall current rating of a server configured with three power supplies is under 12 amperes. CAUTIONS 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 4,100 Btu's per hour for the server. The rack selected and the ventilation provided must be suitable to the environment in which the server will be used.
