Upgrading your Model C100/C110/C160/C180 to a Model C200

Upgrading your Model C100/C110/C160/C180 to a

Model C200

Your upgrade kit contains a Power Supply and Main Tray Assembly, which,

when installed, upgrades your Model C100/C110/C160/C180 to a Model

C200.

NOTE: Installing this upgrade in your Model C100/C110/C160 or C180 does not affect the

regulatory and safety classifications or approvals. The upgraded system meets all of

the regulatory and safety standards listed in Appendix A of your original owner’s

guide.

Installation Prerequisites

Before the Model C100/C110/C160/C180 to a Model C200 Upgrade can be

performed, the current system must have an operating system version HP-

UX 10.20 or greater. The graphics card option being moved to the new

system must also be on the supported list of cards. If it is not, use the builtin

EG graphics or upgrade the graphics card option to a supported

conﬁguration as outlined in the graphics option table below

Operating System

Verify that the HP-UX operating system is at a minimum level of 10.20. This

software must be loaded on the system before performing this upgrade.

Graphics Card Support

Verify that the graphics card(s) installed in your Model C100/C110/C160/

C180 are supported on the Model C200. The /usr/bin/graphinfo command

will display the current graphics card(s) information. Both HCRX8 and

HCRX24 cards require a physical inspection of the card to verify the Z-

Accelerator part number. The ﬁrst 5 alpha-numeric characters on the Z

Accelerators white label must read A4242. The Z-Accelerator is the small

daughter card. If a graphics upgrade is required, it should be performed prior

to performing this upgrade.

The following table presents the graphics options that are supported and

NOT supported or recognized under HP-UX 10.20.

Upgrade Instructions Overview

The general steps for performing the upgrade are outlined as follows and

should be performed in the sequence listed. Refer to the individual sections

of this guide for the actual step-by-step procedures for upgrading the C100/

110/C160/180 to a C200.

1Update or arrange to have your operating system software updated to HP-UX

10.20. This can be a complex task and takes some time and planning.

NOTE: You must back up your system before updating your operating system.

2Determine and WRITE DOWN the LAN ID of your system. You will need to re-

enter it into the new system board

3Run the cclass_upgrade program

4Power off the workstation and any peripherals and unplug the power cords. Dis-

connect any peripheral cables and remove the floor stand

5Remove the main tray assembly

6Remove the memory boards from the CPU board and the option boards from the

main tray and reinstall them onto the new main tray

7Remove the old power supply and replace it with the new power supply.

8Place the new main tray assembly into the workstation chassis

9Connect power cords and cables, restart the workstation, and enter the LAN ID

when prompted

Preparing Your Workstation

Before starting the upgrade, use the following procedure to prepare the

workstation:

1The workstation must be running HP-UX 10.20 or later to accommodate the

C200 upgrade. If the workstation is running a version of HP-UX lower than

10.20, update the operating system software before continuing.

NOTE: Updating the operating system takes some time to perform. Please backup your

system before updating.

2Determine the workstations LAN ID with the lanscan command by entering the

following command:

/usr/sbin/lanscan

The output is similar to the following:

Hardware Station Dev Hardware Net-Interface NM Encapsulation Mjr

Path Address lu State NameUnit State ID Methods Num

2.0.2 0x08000970ECC0 0 UP lan0 UP 4 ETHER 52

After you install the new CPU board or I/O board and power on the system for

the ﬁrst time, you will be prompted for the LAN ID. Record the LAN ID here.

You will need it after installing the new system board:

EnterLAN ID ___________________-_____________________

You must supply the dash (-) between the ﬁrst six digits and the last six digits.

Using the above output example, the LAN ID is 080009-70ECC0

3Logout of your system and enter a no windows command line session as follows:

HP VUE: At the login window, select Options, then select No Windows.

HP CDE: At the login window, select Option, then select

Command Line Login.

Preparing Your Workstation

4Next, you need to run the upgrade utility program to automatically convert the

hardware paths stored in the system’s I/O configuration file. You should only run

thisutilityifyouaregoingtocompletetherestofthehardwareupgradedescribed

in this document.

Enter the following command to run the upgrade utility program:

/usr/sam/lbin/cclass_upgrade

The upgrade utility prompts you to conﬁrm that you want to continue, as fol-

lows:

Are you ready to perform the upgrade (y/n [n])?

Enter Y.

The upgrade utility proceeds to modify the I/O conﬁguration information that is

stored in the ﬁles /etc/ioconﬁg and /stand/ioconﬁg to be compatible with the

upgraded system. The original I/O conﬁguration information is saved in the

backup ﬁle /etc/ioconﬁg.pre_upgrade.

If the utility detects an A4077A Color Graphics Card or an A4078A Dual Color

Graphics Card in the system, it will inform you to remove them when you per-

form the hardware portion of this upgrade. Systems with built-in Enhanced

Graphics adapters do not support these optional graphics adapters.

If you have a Visualize48Z (A4444A) graphics adapter installed, the utility may

ask you to identify which slot the card set is installed in. Respond with the high-

est numbered option slot that the graphics adapter card set resides in.

NOTICE???: The cclass_upgrade utility modiﬁes the hardware conﬁguration so that it

is incompatible with a C100 or C110 system. After running the utility, you

must continue with this upgrade or restore the conﬁguration information

from /etc/ioconﬁg.pre_upgrade to /etc/ioconﬁg and /stand/ioconﬁg.

5Power off your workstation by pressing the power button on the front panel.

When you press the power button, the workstation automatically shuts down the

operating system before it powers off the system.

6Wait for the system to completely shutdown.

7Unplug the power cord of the system unit, the monitor, and any peripheral devic-

es from ac wall outlets.

8Unplug the power cord from the back of the system unit.

Preparing Your Workstation

WARNING: To avoid electrical shock, make sure you unplug the power cable from

the wall outlet and the system unit before proceeding any further.

CAUTION: The internal components of your workstation are susceptible to mechanical and

electrostatic shock. To prevent such damage from occurring, observe the following

precautions during the installation procedure.

•Stand on a static-free mat (if available).

•Wearastatic-groundingwrist straptoensurethatany accumulatedelectrostatic charge

discharges from your body to ground. Attach the static-grounding wrist strap by fol-

lowing the instructions on the package that contains the strap. Be sure to attach one

end of the strap to the system chassis.

Preparing Your Workstation

9Remove the floor stand from the system unit, as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1 Removing the Floor Stand

10 Lay the system unit on a flat surface, such as a table top.

11 Attach a static-grounding wrist strap to bare metal on the back of the system unit.

Removing the Main Tray Assembly

Once you have prepared the workstation, you need to remove the main tray

from the system unit, as described in the following procedure:

1Completely loosen the four thumb screws on the rear of the system unit, as shown

in Figure 2.

Figure 2 Removing Main Tray Assembly

2Place one hand on the top of the system unit and push, while pulling the handle

on the rear panel with your other hand. See Figure 2.

3Slide the main tray assembly out of the chassis.
