Preface Expansions and conversions

1.3 Expansions and conversions

Main memory expansion

Two slots for riser cards with 8 FBD slots each are available. Each memory

bank can be populated with two 512 Mbyte, 1 Gbyte, 2 Gbyte or 4 Gbyte FBD

PC2-4200F or FDB PC2-5300F fully buffered DIMM memory modules.

The memory modules must be equipped in pairs. A memory bank must always

be equipped fully with the same type of memory modules.

There are three modes of operation for the main memory: non-mirrored mode,

mirrored mode (recommended) and sparing mode. Depending on the mode of

operation there are different population requirements.

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. That means the number of

the internal processor cores as well as the primary clock and the FSB frequency

have to be the same. For dual operation, use a suitable multiprocessor

operating system.

Additional accessible drives

Three 5.25-inch bays are available for accessible drives. There can be installed

DVD/DVD-RX drives, tape drives, a multibay (slimline DVD and FDD,

ServerView Local Service Panel or Display) or a hard disks extension box.

Hard disks extension box

In the base units two 5.25-inch bays for accessible drives can be used to install

a hard disks extension box.

Two variants of the hard disks extension box are available:

– Variant 1:

one bay for a ServerView Local Service Panel (LSP) or ServerView Local

Service Display (LSD), one bay for a slimline DVD drive and two bays for 3.5-

inch hard disk drives

– Variant 2 (only possible if the system is equipped with 2.5-inch hard disk

drives):

eight bays for 2.5-inch hard disk drives

Expansions and conversions Preface

Additional expansion cards in PCI slots

The server has one standard PCI slot and six PCI express slots. Of these six

PCI express slots, four are x4 slots and two potential x8 slots. The capacity of

the two x8 slots depends on how all the PCI express slots are filled.

RAID key

The SATA SW RAID 5 functionality will be activated by installing a license key

(RAID key) on the SAS/SATA controller.

Battery Backup Unit

In case of an outage the battery backup (BBU) unit stores the memory contents.

Per expansion card one BBU can be installed. Per system maximum two BBUs

can be installed.

Parallel interface

As an option, a parallel interface can be provided.

Upgrading to redundant system fans

The standard fans can be upgraded to redundant system fans. If the redundant

system fans are installed, the fans are operating in a redundant configuration. A

defective system fan can be replaced during the next service.

Conversion standard power supply to hot-plug power supply

The standard power supply can be replaced by a hot-plug power supply. The

hot-plug power supply consists of two power supply modules. The conversion

kit contains only one power supply module, you have to order the second power

supply separately.

If one power supply module fails, the other power supply module guarantees the

unrestricted operation and the defective power supply module can be replaced

be replaced while the system is operating (hot-plug).

Conversion from a floorstand model to a rack model

The floorstand model can be optionally converted to allow the server to be

installed into any typical rack systems.
