1 Preface

The PRIMERGY BX620 S4 2-way Server Blade is an Intel-based server blade

with outstanding network qualities. Combined with Gbit Ethernet LAN SB9F

switch blades, it offers LAN connections via 6 onboard Ethernet channels in the

BX600 S3 basic unit. The server blade can also be operated in the BX600 S2

basic unit, in which case, however, only 2 of the 6 onboard Ethernet channels

of the server blade can be used.

The PRIMERGY BX620 S4 server blade offers several new forward-looking

technologies such as dual-core processors, FBD memory modules with

extended mirroring, modular hard disk controller configuration and 2.5-inch SAS

or SATA hard disks.

1.1 Documentation Overview

Preface Extensions and Conversions

1.2 Extensions and Conversions

Second Processor

If only one processor is installed in your server blade, you can upgrade it to

include a second one. You may only use processors of the same type in the

server blade. The second processor must have the same clock frequency as the

first.

Extension of the Main Memory

The main memory sockets are suitable for "Fully Buffered DIMM" (FBD) 533-

MHz memory modules. Memory modules must be installed in pairs. The two

memory modules of one bank must always have the same capacity.

Optional I/O Modules

The server blade has one slot for an extension board (daughter card) which can

be used to provide two Fibre Channel (FC) connections or two additional

Ethernet connections. The following I/O modules are available:

– 2 Gbit Fibre Channel daughter card (PCI-X)

– 4 Gbit Fibre Channel daughter card (PCIe)

– 1 Gbit Ethernet daughter card (PCIe)

– 10 Gbit Ethernet daughter card (PCIe)

To be able to use the additional I/O functionality, at least one Fibre Channel or

Ethernet I/O blade must be installed in the NET3 and/or NET4 slots of the

BX600 basic unit. For further information on I/O blades, see the operating

manual for your BX600 basic unit (see “Related publications” on page 59).

Storage Modules

The hard disks are controlled by a storage module (controller) that can be

plugged into the motherboard and which may also have additional functions.

SATA only offers one storage module variant, while SAS offers a total of four

different variants: SAS, SAS/RAID, SAS/PCI-X and SAS/PCIe. The two PCI

variants allow the installation of low-profile PCI modules.

Storage modules can be installed/replaced via the front of the server blade

without having to take off the housing cover. However, they cannot be replaced

while the system is running (non-hot-plug) - the server blade must be switched

off.
