RX300 S4 Options Guide 7

1 Introduction

The PRIMERGY RX300 S4 server is an Intel-based server for mid-size

networks and large companies. The server is suitable for use as a file server

and also as an application, information or Internet server.

The PRIMERGY RX300 S4 server offers a high level of reliability and availability

through highly developed hardware and software components. These include

hot-plug hard disk drive modules, redundant CPU fans, system fans and power

supply units, and PCI slots, the ServerView Suite server management software,

„Prefailure Detection and Analysing“ (PDA) and „Automatic Server Reconfigu-

ration and Restart“ (ASR&R).

Security functions in the BIOS Setup and on the system board protect the data

on the server against manipulation. Additional security is provided by the

lockable rack door.

1.1 Concept and target groups

This Options Guide shows you how you can expand and upgrade the server.

IThe Operating Manual for the server describes how you install/remove

the hot-plug components.

The activities described in this manual may only be performed by specialist

personnel with technical training.

1.2 Documentation overview

IPRIMERGY manuals are available in PDF format on the ServerBooks

DVD. The ServerBooks DVD is part of the ServerStart Suite supplied with

every server.

The PDF files of the manuals can also be downloaded free of charge

from the Internet. The overview page showing the online documentation

available on the Internet can be found using the URL:

http://manuals.fujitsu-siemens.com. The PRIMERGY server documentation

can be accessed using the Industry standard servers navigation option.

Introduction Options and upgrade

1.3 Options and upgrade

Second processor

The system board can be upgraded with a second processor. Only processors

of the same type may be used on the system board. The second processor must

have the same clock frequency and the same cache as the first processor.

Upgrading of the main memory

2x6 slots for main memory FBD PC2-4200 or FBD PC2-5300 fully buffered

DIMM memory modules with 512 MB, 1 Gbyte, 2 Gbyte and 4 Gbyte (single

rank).

Memory modules must always be incorporated in pairs.

The organization in six memory banks, 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 and 7 with 2 memory

modules each, permits rapid memory access with four-way interleaving.

SAS RAID controller

The SAS RAID controller can be installed for operating internal hard disks.

RAID levels 0, 1, 10, 5, 50, 6 and RAID 60 are supported..

SAS IME controller

The SAS-IME controller with Integrated Mirroring Enhanced functionality can be

installed for operating internal hard disks. Integrated Mirroring Enhanced also

provides RAID 0, 1, 1E functionality for configuring the internal hard disks.

Additional accessible drives

A number of mounting locations are available:

– one bay for a 3.5-inch slimline 1.44 MB floppy disk drive (optional) one

LocalView module (optional) or a CSS-LED module (optional)

– one bay for a slimline optical drive (optional)

IThe accessible drives integrated in these bays cannot be replaced during

operation.

In a 6x3,5 or a 6x2,5 HDD configuration, a USB magnetic tape drive or an RDX

drive can be installed in the left drive cage as an option. As a result, two bays

are occupied in the drive cage.

10 OptionsGuide RX300 S4

Options and upgrade Introduction

I– In a 6x3,5 HDD configuration these bays are then no longer available

for HDD modules.

– The magnetic tape drive or the RDX drive cannot be replaced during

operation.

LocalView module (alphanumeric system display)

The LocalView module provides you with the option of displaying system infor-

mation and hardware system faults alphanumerically. This is an intelligent

module with a micro-controller and its own memory, which functions indepen-

dently of the server system.

The LocalView module consists of an LCD display panel and a toggle switch,

both accommodated in a suitable mount. The mechanical mechanism used

allows the LCD display panel to be pulled out and open. Further information on

operating the display modes are provided in the documentation on the

LocalView module.

Customer Self Service (CSS)

The Fujitsu Siemens Computers Customer Self Service (CSS) concept enables

you to identify and replace the affected component yourself in the case of

certain error scenarios.

In the CSS concept, you can replace the following components yourself in the

event of an error:

– Hot-plug hard disk drives

– Hot-plug power supply units

– Hot-plug fans

– Memory modules

– Expansion cards

For information on replacing these components, see chapter „Hot-plug compo-

nents of the operating manual or the Options Guide for your Primergy RX300

S4 on the ServerBooks DVD.

CSS indicators on the control panel and on the back of the PRIMERGY server

provide you with information if a CSS event arises (for more information on the

behavior of these indicators, see operating manual and the "Customer Self

Service (CSS)" manual on the ServerBooks DVD).

You can also fit your server with a CSS Module which enables you to identify the

type of component affected by the error directly on the server (for more infor-

mation, see the "Customer Self Service (CSS)" manual on the
