RX330 S1 Operating manual 7

1 Introduction

The PRIMERGY RX330 S1 server is an AMD-based server for workgroups and

small networks. The server is suitable for use as a file server and also as an

application, information or Internet server.

Thanks to its highly developed hardware and software components, the

PRIMERGY RX330 S1 server offers a high level of data security and availability.

These components include hot-plug hard disk modules, redundant power

supply units, and the Server Management ServerView Suite, Prefailure Detection

and Analysing (PDA) and Automatic Server Reconfiguration and Restart

(ASR&R).

Security functions in the BIOS setup protect the data on the server against

manipulation. Additional security is provided by the lockable rack door.

The server occupies 2 height units (HU) in the rack.

1.1 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.

1.2 Features

System board

The features of the system board are described in the technical manual for the

system board D2440 for the hardware and in the “BIOS Setup” for the firmware

(see “Literature” on page 87).

Hard disk drives

The server includes two drive cages with up to six (2x3) SAS/SATA2 hard disk

modules. Each hard disk module can accommodate an SAS/SATA2 hard disk

drive with a maximum height of 1 inch. The module is connected to the

SAS/SATA2 backplane wirelessly. This allows hard disk drive modules to be

simply plugged in or pulled out (for further details see “Hot plug hard disk drives”

on page 73).

The hard disk subsystem is designed for SAS/SATA 2, each with one channel

for each hard disk drive.

If the server has the corresponding RAID configuration, HDD modules can also

be exchanged during operation.

10 Operating manual RX330 S1

Features Introduction

Onboard SAS controller with Integrated Mirroring Enhanced functionality

An onboard SAS controller with "Integrated Mirroring Enhanced" (IME) function-

ality is fitted to operate the six hard drives. IME also offers RAID functionality for

configuring the internal hard disk drives (RAID level 0, 1).

IA separate utility is available to the controller for IME configuration.

Further information can be found in the "Integrated RAID for SAS User’s

Guide" (on the ServerBooks DVD under "Controllers").

The RAID functionality can optionally be expanded with a corresponding PCI

expansion module (zero-channel RAID controller). In addition to RAID levels 0

and 1, this RAID controller also offers the option of configuring RAID 5. The ZCR

controller uses the Onboard SAS controller using logic that is specially

integrated on the system board.

Accessible drives

A 5.25 inch bay is available for a CD/DVD drive or a magnetic tape drive. The

accessible drive installed here cannot be replaced during operation.

USB port

The USB interface on the front of the server supports activities carried out by

the service technician. The maximum length of the external cable are three

meters.

Power supply

The basic configuration of the server includes a hot-plug power supply unit,

which automatically sets itself to a mains voltage in the range of 100 V - 127 V

or 200 V - 240 V. As an option, the power supply can be expanded with an extra

power supply unit to create a redundant power supply. If a power supply unit

fails, the redundant configuration assures continued operation. The defective

power supply unit can be replaced during operation (for further details see “Hot-

plug power supply units” on page 69).

High level of availability and data security

When memory data is accessed, 1-bit errors in the main memory are identified

and automatically corrected with the ECC (Error Correcting Code) method. The

patented memory scrubbing function regularly starts up the EDC mechanism

and thus ensures continuous data integrity.
