Before reading this manual

For your safety

This manual contains important information for safely and correctly using this product.

Carefully read the manual before using this product. Pay particular attention to the accompanying manual "Safety Notes and Regulations" and ensure these safety notes are understood before using the product.

Radio interference

This product is a "Class A" ITE (Information Technology Equipment). In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference, in which case the user may be required to take appropriate measures. VCCI-A

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors

The aluminum electrolytic capacitors used in the product's printed circuit board assemblies and in the mouse and keyboard are limited-life components. Use of these components beyond their operating life may result in electrolyte leakage or depletion, potentially causing emission of foul odor or smoke.

As a guideline, in a normal office environment (25°C) operating life is not expected to be reached within the maintenance support period (5 years). However, operating life may be reached more quickly if, for example, the product is used in a hot environment. The customer shall bear the cost of replacing replaceable components which have exceeded their operating life. Note that these are only guidelines, and do not constitute a guarantee of trouble-free operation during the maintenance support period.

High safety use

This product has been designed and manufactured to be used in commercial and/or industrial areas as a server.

When used as visual display workplace, it must not be placed in the direct field of view to avoid incommoding reflections (applies only to TX server systems).

The device has not been designed or manufactured for uses which demand an extremely high level of safety and carry a direct and serious risk of life or body if such safety cannot be assured.

Before starting up

● During installation and before operating the device, observe the instructions on environmental conditions for your device.

● If the device is brought in from a cold environment, condensation may form both inside and on the outside of the device.

Wait until the device has acclimatized to room temperature and is absolutely dry before starting it up. Material damage may be caused to the device if this requirement is not observed.

● Transport the device only in the original packaging or in packaging that protects it from knocks and jolts.For the Japanese market, transporting the device in its original packaging does not apply.

Installation and operation

● This unit should not be operated in ambient temperatures above 35 °C.

● If the unit is integrated into an installation that draws power from an industrial power supply network with an IEC309 connector, the power supply's fuse protection must comply with the requirements for non-industrial power supply networks for type B connectors.

● The unit automatically adjusts itself to a mains voltage in a range of 100 VAC to 240 VAC. Ensure that the local mains voltage lies within these limits.

● This device must only be connected to properly grounded power outlets or connected to the grounded rack internal power distribution system with tested and approved power cords.

● Ensure that the device is connected to a properly grounded power outlet close to the device.

● Ensure that the power sockets on the device and the properly grounded power outlets are easily accessible.

● The On/Off button or the main power switch (if present) does not isolate the device from the mains power supply. In case of repair or servicing disconnect the device completely from the mains power supply, unplug all power plugs from the properly grounded power outlets.



● Always connect the server and the attached peripherals to the same power circuit. Otherwise you run the risk of losing data if, for example, the server is still running but a peripheral device (e.g. memory subsystem) fails during a power outage.

● Data cables must be adequately shielded.

● Ethernet cabling has to comply with EN 50173 and EN 50174-1/2 standards or ISO/IEC 11801 standard respectively. The minimum requirement is a Category 5 shielded cable for 10/100 Ethernet, or a Category 5e cable for Gigabit Ethernet.

● Route the cables in such a way that they do not create a potential hazard (make sure no-one can trip over them) and that they cannot be damaged. When connecting the server, refer to the relevant instructions in this manual.

● Never connect or disconnect data transmission lines during a storm (risk of lightning hazard).

● Make sure that no objects (e.g. jewelry, paperclips etc.) or liquids can get inside the server (risk of electric shock, short circuit).

● In emergencies (e.g. damaged casing, controls or cables, penetration of liquids or foreign bodies), contact the system administrator or your customer service team. Only disconnect the system from the mains power supply if there is no risk of harming yourself.

● Proper operation of the system (in accordance with IEC 60950-1 resp. EN 60950-1) is only ensured if the casing is completely assembled and the rear covers for the installation slots have been fitted (electric shock, cooling, fire protection, interference suppression).

● Only install system expansions that satisfy the requirements and rules governing safety and electromagnetic compatibility and those relating to telecommunication terminals. If you install other expansions, they may damage the system or violate the safety regulations. Information on which system expansions are approved for installation can be obtained from our customer service center or your sales outlet.

● The components marked with a warning notice (e.g. lightning symbol) may only be opened, removed or exchanged by authorized, qualified personnel. Exception: CSS components can be replaced.

● The warranty is void if the server is damaged during installation or replacement of system expansions.

● Devices inside the server remain hot after shutdown. Wait for a while after shutdown before installing or removing internal options.

● The circuit boards and soldered parts of internal options are exposed and can be damaged by static electricity. To ensure reliable protection, if you are wearing an earthing band on your wrist when working with this type of module, connect it to an unpainted, non-conducting metal part of the system.

● Do not touch the circuitry on boards or soldered parts. Hold the metallic areas or the edges of the circuit boards.

● Install the screw removed during installation/detaching internal options in former device/position. To use a screw of the different kind can cause a breakdown of equipment.

● The installation indicated on this document is sometimes changed to the kind of possible options without notice.



Batteries

● Incorrect replacement of batteries may lead to a risk of explosion. The batteries may only be replaced with identical batteries or with a type recommended by the manufacturer.

● Do not throw batteries into the trash can.

● Batteries must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations concerning special waste.

● Make sure that you insert the battery the right way round.

● The battery used in this device may present a fire or chemical burn hazard if mistreated. Do not disassemble, heat about 100 °C (212F), or incinerate the battery.

● All batteries containing pollutants are marked with a symbol (a crossed-out garbage can). In addition, the marking is provided with the chemical symbol of the heavy metal decisive for the classification as a pollutant:

Cd Cadmium Hg Mercury Pb Lead

Working with CDs/DVDs/BDs and optical drives

When working with devices with optical drives, these instructions must be followed.

V CAUTION!

● Only use CDs/DVDs/BDs that are in perfect condition, in order to prevent data loss, equipment damage and injury.

● Check each CD/DVD/BD for damage, cracks, breakages etc. before inserting it in the drive.

Note that any additional labels applied may change the mechanical properties of a CD/DVD/BD and cause imbalance.

Damaged and imbalanced CDs/DVDs/BDs can break at high drive speeds (data loss).

Under certain circumstances, sharp CD/DVD/BD fragments can pierce the cover of the optical drive (equipment damage) and can fly out of the device (danger of injury, particularly to uncovered body parts such as the face or neck).

4.4 Connecting the system unit to the mains

The system unit has six bays for hot-swap power supply units (PSUs). In the base configuration, it is fitted with three PSUs.

V CAUTION!

● Read the information on determining how many PSUs are required (see "Power supply" on page 85).

● The PSUs automatically adjust to a mains voltage between 100 VAC to 240 VAC. The system unit may only be used if the local mains voltage is within the voltage range of the system.

● The 2880 W PSUs may only be connected to 16 A power outlets, a UPS, a 32 A power distribution unit, or CEE sockets. When ordering the system unit, you must specify which socket type is available at the installation location, so that the cables with the appropriate C19 connectors can be supplied.

● For the Japanese market:The standard power supply units (Japanese version) may only be connected to NEMA L6-20, IEC 60320-C20, or NEMA 5-15 sockets.

The HE power supply units may only be connected to NEMA L6-20 or IEC 60320-C20 sockets.

● Always connect the cable first to the PSU and then to the mains.

Ê First connect the insulated C19 connectors of the power cables to the PSUs of the system unit, and then plug the connectors into the UPS, power distribution unit or external sockets.

Ê Ensure that the status indicator on the PSU module is lit green.

I For more information see section "Indicators on the hot-plug power supply units" on page 186.

4.5 Switching on the system unit

V CAUTION!

Follow the safety instructions in chapter "Important information" on page 29.

Ê Connect all peripheral cables to the connection blades of the system unit.

Ê Connect and secure the power cords as described in section "Connecting the system unit to the mains" on page 50.

Ê Connect all power cords to the power outlets.

I Make sure that the individual PSUs are connected to different AC sources (phases). This ensures additional AC source (phase) redundancy for high-availability configurations. If only one AC source (phase) fails, the PSUs connected to the other AC sources (phases) remain operational.

Figure 5: Numbering of the PSU bays

Power system with 2 AC sources (phases) availableWith 6 PSUs, you must connect the ones in the top row (PSUs 1, 2 and 3) to the first source (phase) and the ones in the bottom row (PSUs 4, 5 and 6) to the second source (phase).

PSU 1 PSU 2 PSU 3

PSU 4 PSU 5 PSU 6



Thus 3+3 redundancy is supported; the system continues to run if one source fails, provided the remaining 3 power supplies are sufficient to deliver the required power.

With 4 PSUs, you must connect units 2 and 3 to the first source (phase) and units 5 and 6 to the second. Thus 2+2 redundancy is supported; the system continues to run if one source fails, provided the remaining 2 power supplies are sufficient to deliver the required power.

Power system with 3 AC sources (phases) availableWith 6 PSUs, you must connect units 1 and 4 to the first AC source (phase), units 2 and 5 to the second, and units 3 and 6 to the third. Thus 4+2 redundancy is supported; the system continues to run if one source fails, provided the remaining 4 power supplies are sufficient to deliver the required power.

With 3 PSUs, you must connect each one to a different source. Thus 2+1 redundancy is supported; the system continues to run if one source fails, provided the remaining 2 PSUs are sufficient to deliver the required power.

Ê Press the On / Off button or use the management blade web interface to start up the system unit.

Ê Ensure that the power-on indicator above the On / Off button is lit green.

I For more information see "LEDs on the control panel" on page 181.

5.2.2 Verifying the management blade time settings

After a management blade has been replaced, you must check the system time settings.

System unit with one management blade installed

Ê After replacing the management blade, ask the system administrator whether the RTC or UTC time standard is to be used as system time.

I If the system time (RTC) is set to UTC, the SEL (System Event Log) time stamps may differ from the local time.


Ê Select the Settings – System Unit – Date/Time menu.

Ê Under System Time and System Date specify the correct time and date.

I By default, the system time set in the management blade is RTC (Real Time Clock) local time. If your IT infrastructure relies on universally accepted time standards, set the System Time to UTC (Universal Time, Coordinated) instead. Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) can be considered equivalent to UTC.

Ê Save your changes and exit the management blade web interface.

System unit with two management blades installed

After replacing the slave management blade, the slave management blade inherits the time settings from the master management blade. Nevertheless time settings should be checked.

Ê Enter the management blade web interface.

Ê Select the Settings – System Unit – Date/Time menu.

Ê Under System Time and System Date specify the correct time and date.

Ê Save your changes and exit the management blade web interface.

I For detailed information on how to access the management blade web interface and modify settings, refer to the "PRIMERGY BX900 Blade Server Systems ServerView Management Blade S1 User Interface Description".



5.2.3 Viewing and clearing the System Event Log (SEL)

6.1 Basic information

The BX900 S2 system unit has 6 bays for hot-plug PSUs (PSU 1-6). There are two types of PSUs available, standard PSU and High Efficiency PSU (hereinafter referred to as HE PSU), see the "PRIMERGY BX900 S2 Blade Server System Unit Operating Manual".

I The information in this section applies to both standard PSUs and high efficiency PSUs.

6.1.1 Power supply redundancy

Figure 13: Numbering of the PSU bays

In the minimum configuration, bays PSU 2, PSU 3 and PSU 6 are fitted with PSUs. The remaining bays are free.

Depending on the system unit configuration, the remaining bays must be fitted with further PSUs or with fan modules. Make sure you observe the following order: PSU 5 – PSU 1 – PSU 4. The required number of PSUs and fan modules

PSU 1 PSU 2 PSU 3

PSU 4 PSU 5 PSU 6


Power supply

depends on the configuration, number and types of installed server blades, the available mains voltage and the redundant power supply requirements. The following table shows the mutual dependencies.

I The numbers of installed server blades in the following table are only approximate values. For further information regarding Power Consumption and Power Efficiency please refer to

V CAUTION!

If a PSU fails in a non-redundant configuration of PSUs, and the remaining PSUs do not provide sufficient power, the system unit is shut down immediately.

I Make sure that the individual PSUs are connected to different phases. This ensures additional phase redundancy for high availability configurations. If only one phase fails, the PSUs connected to the other phases remain operational. You can achieve full phase redundancy with three PSUs. If more PSUs are installed, up to two PSUs must be connected to each individual phase (for information on the electrical connections, see the technical manual for the PRIMECENTER rack).

Phase redundancy is possible in regions where the single phase provides 200 - 240V; in other regions with lower single-phase voltage, two phases have to be coupled, which means that full phase redundancy is not possible.

6.1.2 Cooling requirements

The BX900 S2 system unit is divided into 6 cooling zones. To achieve optimum cooling of all components, the 6 cooling zones on the front and back of the system unit must be fitted equally.

The following examples show how the various configurations of slots for PSUs and fan modules as well as for server blades and/or storage blades should be fitted.

V CAUTION!

Any unused server blade slots must be fitted with dummy modules, see "Installing a dummy server blade module" on page 59.

8.4.2 Connection blade stacking

Up to 8 Connection Blades GbE Switch/IBP 36/8+2 (SB11) can be operated together to form a so-called stack. One of the connection blades takes on the role of the master. This connection blade is used to administer all modules of the stack. All modules of a stack act as one connection blade. In this way, connection blade stacking offers a large number of ports with minimum administrative effort.

The connections within a stack are established through the stacking ports of the connection blades. The internal stacking ports to the midplane of the BX900 S2 system unit are each used to connect two connection blades that are installed in the same fabric, i.e. in two adjacent slots. Connection blades in different fabrics are connected through the external ports using CX4 cables.

Figure 39: CX4 cable

The stacking connections within a stack must form a circuit. Connection blade stacks can be formed within a BX900 S2 system unit, across several system units of a rack or across several system units in different racks.

The possible cabling scenarios are shown in the following diagrams, with the connections identified as follows:

Internal connection within a fabric via the midplaneCX4 cable, 0.5 mCX4 cable, 3 m

9 Management Blades


The PRIMERGY BX900 S2 system unit has slots for two management blades for complete remote administration of the system, MMB 1 and MMB 2 in figure "PRIMERGY BX900 S2 system unit rear" on page 176. The basic configuration of the BX900 S2 system unit contains one management blade.

If two management blades are installed in the system unit, one will take over the role of the master, who is in charge of the server management, while the other one will take over the slave role and remain in a standby status as a redundant component. As soon as the master fails to work properly, for instance, when unplugged by the system administrator, the standby component will take over control of the server management.

For a detailed description, see the manual "PRIMERGY BX900 Blade Server Systems ServerView Management Blade S1 User Interface Description".

V CAUTION!

When installing or replacing a management blade, make sure that the new management blade has the required firmware version.

– If two management blades are installed in the system unit, the firmware version of the slave management blade must match the firmware version of the master.

– If one management blade is installed in the system unit, the firmware version of the new management blade must be at least equal to the firmware version of the old one.

If the firmware version of the old management blade is unknown, you must update the firmware to the latest version.

11 Front docking boardThis chapter provides information on how to replace the front docking board.

Safety notes

V CAUTION!

● When inserting the front docking board into the system unit, ensure not to pinch or strain any connected cables.

● Circuit boards and soldered parts of internal options are exposed and can be damaged by static electricity. Always discharge static build-up (e.g. by touching a grounded object) before handling electrostatic-sensitive devices (ESDs)

● Do not touch the circuitry on boards or soldered parts. Hold circuit boards by their metallic areas or edges.


Note on system information backup / restore

I The front docking board contains the Chassis ID EPROM that contains system information like system unit name and model, housing type, serial number and manufacturing data.

When you replace the front docking board you must reprogram the chassis ID PROM.

Please back up a setting value of the management blade if it is possible before exchanging the front docking board. The "User Assigned Name" of connection blade setting is not included in the backup.

After installing the new front docking board, it is necessary to program the ChassisID prom with the help of the "ChassisIDProm Tool".

This tool is available for download from the following Fujitsu Technology Solutions support page:


For the Japanese market, follow the instructions privided separately.
