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.

Installing optional components

The "PRIMERGY CX420 S1 Dual Node Cluster Server Operating Manual" gives an introduction to server features and provides an overview of available hardware options.

Use the Fujitsu ServerView Suite management software to prepare hardware expansions. ServerView Suite documentation is available online at http://manuals.ts.fujitsu.com (http://jp.fujitsu.com/platform/server/primergy/system/ for the Japanese market) or from the ServerView Suite DVD 2 supplied with your PRIMERGY server. Please refer to the following ServerView Suite topics:

– Operation– Virtualization– Maintenance

I For the latest information on hardware options, refer to your server’s hardware configurator available online at the following address:

for the EMEA market:http://ts.fujitsu.com/products/standard_servers/tower/primergy_tx140s1.html

for the Japanese market:http://jp.fujitsu.com/platform/server/primergy/system/

Before you start

Please contact your local Fujitsu customer service partner for details on how to order expansion kits or spare parts. Use the Fujitsu Illustrated Spares Catalog to identify the required spare part and obtain technical data and order information. Illustrated Spares catalogs are available online at http://manuals.ts.fujitsu.com/illustrated_spares (EMEA market only).

Replacing a defective component

The global error indicators on the front and rear sides of the server as well as local diagnostic LEDs on the front panel report defective hardware components that need to be replaced. For further information on the controls and indicators of your server, refer to the operating manual of your server and section "Controls and indicators" on page 174.

If the system has been powered off in order to replace a non-hot plug unit, a system of PRIMERGY diagnostic indicators guides you to the defective component. The "Indicate CSS" button enables the indicator next to the defective component even if the server has been switched off and disconnected from the mains.

If the defective component is a customer replaceable unit included in the CSS concept (Customer Self Service, only available for EMEA market), the CSS indicators on the front and rear side of the server will light up.

It is recommended to prepare local maintenance tasks using remote diagnostics procedures, as described in the "ServerView Suite Local Service Concept (LSC)" manual.

After replacing a hard disk drive that has been combined into a RAID array, RAID rebuild will be performed completely unattended as a background process.

Figure 32: Progress bar (RAID array rebuild)

V CAUTION!

The system is now operational, however, data redundancy will not be available until the RAID array rebuild is complete. Depending on the hard disk drive capacity the overall process can take up to several hours, in some cases even days.

I You may notice a slight performance impact during rebuild.

5.2.3 Using the Chassis ID Prom Tool

System information like server name and model, housing type, serial number and manufacturing data are stored in the BMC.

In order to integrate your system into the ServerView management environment and to enable server installation using the ServerView Installation Manager, system data needs to be complete and correct.

After replacing the PDB or HDD backplane, system information has to be entered using the ChassisId_Prom Tool. The tool and further instructions are available to maintenance personnel from the Fujitsu Technology Solutions Extranet:

● Areas around the power supply unit may remain extremely hot after shutdown. After shutting down the server, wait for hot components to cool down before removing the power supply unit.

● When installing the power supply unit, be sure to confirm that the connector of the power supply unit is not damaged or bent.

● Do not insert your hands in the power supply unit slot when removing the power supply unit. Doing so may cause electric shock.

● If the power supply unit is hard to remove, do not pull out it by force.

● The power supply unit is heavy, so handle it carefully. If you drop it by mistake, injuries may result.


6.1 Basic information

The Dual Node Cluster Server uses a hot-plug PSU, which automatically sets itself to a mains voltage in the range of 200 - 240 V (High Line) or 100 - 240 V (Wide Range); depends on which PSU option is used.

In a multi-node configuration, full redundancy cannot be guaranteed. In case of PSU failure a warning is generated and all CPUs will be forced to work with the lowest frequency.

Safety instructions

V CAUTION!

● The hard disk drive must not be removed from the installation frame by anyone except a service technician.

● HDD / SSD modules must all be marked clearly so that they can be reinstalled into their original mounting locations after an upgrade. Otherwise, data may be lost.

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

● Before removing a hard disk drive, wait for about 30 seconds until the disk has stopped spinning completely.

● When a hard disk drive is starting up, a resonant noise may be audible for a short while. This does not indicate a failure.

● Depending on the OS, you can configure the write cache settings for the hard disk drives. If a power failure should occur while the write cache is enabled, cached data may be lost.

● When disposing of, transferring, or returning a hard disk or solid state drive, wipe out the data on the drive for your own security.

● Rough handling of hard disk drives may damage the stored data. To cope with any unexpected problems, always back up important data. When backing up data to another hard disk drive, you should make backups on a file or partition basis.

● Be careful not to hit the hard disk drive or bring it into contact with metallic objects.

● Handle the device on a shock and vibration free surface.

● Do not use the device in extremely hot or cold locations, or locations with extreme temperature changes.

● Never attempt to disassemble a hard disk or solid state drive.



Hard disk drives / solid state drives

7.1 Basic information

Hard disk drives

The Dual Node Cluster Server can be equipped with a maximum of 12 x 3.5-inch HDD modules.

Each HDD module can accommodate an SAS 3.5-inch hard disk drive or an 2.5-inch HDD/SSD drive with a maximum height of 1 inch. The module is connected to the SAS/SATA backplane wirelessly. This allows HDD/SSD modules to be plugged in or pulled out easily.

All 12 hard disk drives are shared for both server nodes CX272 S1. These hard disk drives can be controlled by the SAS HBA (PSAS CP200i) mounted in both CX272 S1.

Hybrid configurations of SAS HDDs, SATA HDDs and SSDs within the same logical drive (RAID array) are not supported.

If the Dual Node Cluster Server has the corresponding RAID configuration, HDD modules can also be replaced during operation.

7.1.1 General equipping rules

– Solid state drives (SSDs) are always equipped before installing hard disk drives.

– Hard disk drives / solid state drives with different capacities are installed from highest to lowest capacity.

– Hard disk drives with different rotation speeds are installed from highest to lowest speed.

– When installing hard disk drives with different bus technologies (SAS or SATA), first install SAS drives and then SATA drives.

– Please refer to section "HDD install order in the 3.5-inch chassis" on page 89 for a complete overview of the mounting sequence.

– Install dummy modules into unused HDD/SSD bays.

7.5 Configuration and management of virtual disks in storage spaces

Starting with Windows Server 2012 Microsoft implemented a functionality called "Storage Spaces". Compared to solutions based on hardware RAID (based on a RAID controller) Storage Spaces is implemented as part of the base operating system and is not manageable with management tools like ServerView RAID manager.

To configure and manage Storage Spaces the builtin Microsoft tools like Server Manager or PowerShell need to be used. A good overview can be found at:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831739.aspx

7.5.1 Error situations

7.5.1.1 Less severe errors

If a less severe error occurs on a physical disk during a write operation to this disk, the physical disk is marked as unhealthy. The corresponding virtual disk is marked unhealthy too and the operational status is set to Degraded:


http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831739.aspx


Figure 63: Virtual Disks

Figure 64: Virtual Disk1

If subsequent writes to the physical disk succeed, the physical disk is marked as healthy again, while the virtual disk is still marked as unhealthy, because the data on disks is out of sync.

The virtual disk remains degraded until either a repair operation is started or an automatic re-synchronization occurs, which occurs after a five minute interval.

To force that re-synchronization, please right click on the virtual disk and choose Repair Virtual Disk:

Figure 65: Repair Virtual Disk

The data on disks will now be synced and the operational status is set to In Service:



Figure 66: Virtual Disk1 - In Service

7.5.1.2 Severe errors

If a severe error occurs on a physical disk Storage Spaces marks the disk as unhealthy:

Figure 67: Virtual Disks - Physical Disks

The virtual disk is then marked as degraded until the failed disk is replaced and a repair operation is started. If a hot spare is present in the storage pool, the hot spare comes online immediately. Depending on the error code the disk drive is returning, Storage Spaces will also illuminate the failure LED for the affected slot (the failure LED is available on PRIMERGY disk enclosures released for Storage Spaces).

To locate the failed physical disk, you can switch on the LED at this disk. You have two possibilities to illuminate the LED:

1. Illuminate the LED via Storage Spaces GUI or

2. Illuminate the LED using PowerShell

The second method is useful, if the failed disk is not visible in File and Storage Services.



Illuminating LED via Storage Spaces GUI

Ê Right click the failed physical disk and choose Toggle Drive Light.

Figure 68: Toggle Drive Light

Illuminating LED using PowerShell

If the failed disk is not visible in File and Storage Services for some reason, the only way to illuminate the LED is PowerShell:

While some disks are not listed in File and Storage Services the Cmdlet Get-PhysicalDisk will list all physical disks

Figure 69: PowerShell

If the failed disk is found in the list, the LED can be illuminated by the Cmdlet Enable-PhysicalDiskIndication.

In the above example the command would be this:

Enable-PhysicalDiskIndication -FriendlyName PhysicalDisk4

7.5.2 Disk Error Details

If a physical disk encounters an error, a system eventlog with ID 7 or 11 is recorded in the system eventlog:

Figure 70: System eventlog ID 7



Figure 71: System eventlog ID 11

The binary details of these event logs list more information about the failure type:

7.5.3 Storage Spaces Event Logging

Further errors logged for Storage Spaces can be found in Event Viewer under:

Applications and Services Logs/Microsoft/Windows/StorageSpaces-Driver/Operational

These logs contain the DiskGUID, which identifies the physical or virtual disk (e.g. 4988b42f-a2a2-11e2-93eb-001999d49f20).

With Cmdlets Get-PhysicalDisk and Get-VirtualDisk the disk can be listed in PowerShell:

– get-physicaldisk |? { $_.ObjectId.Contains( {<GUID>} ); }

– get-virtualdisk |? { $_.ObjectId.Contains( {<GUID>} ); }

7.5.4 Transitional Errors

If Storage Spaces encounters a read error, it will not mark a disk as failed. In a Mirror or Parity configuration, Storage Spaces attempts to retrieve the alternate copy of the data.

In the event that a disk cannot be written to or read from, but never returns an error, Storage Spaces treats the condition as a transitory failure. The action that Storage Spaces takes is configurable and defined by the Set-StoragePool -RetireMissingPhysicalDisks cmdlet; "Auto" is the default:

Offset Description0x92 Sense Code0x9c Additional Sense Code0x9d Additional Sense Code Qualifier



7.5.5 Automatic Email Notification

To send an automatic error notification via email to a system administrator or do some other actions if an error occurs on a Storage Spaces disk, you can attach a task to a certain type of eventlog and choose whether to send an email or run a command:

Figure 72: Attach Task To This Event

Option BehaviourEnabled If a disk is missing but its enclosure is still

present, treat the missing disk as failed and retire it.

Disabled If a disk is missing, wait for either the disk to reconnect or for administrative action. GUI will show a status "Lost communication".

Auto If the pool has a hot spare, follow the Enabled logic. Otherwise, follow the Disabled logic.



Figure 73: Create Basic Task Wizard

With Task Scheduler more triggers can be defined:
