Features Introduction

1.1 Features

System Board D1307

The features of the system board can be found on the PRIMERGY ServerBooks CD (see “Related Publications” on page 69).

Hard disk subsystem and onboard SCSI controller

The hard disk subsystem consists of three 3.5-inch hard disk modules and the SCSI backplane. Each hard disk module can accommodate a SCSI hard disk drive with an SCA (Single Connector Attachment) interface and a maximum height of 1. The module is connected to the SCSI disk without cables via the SCA interface. This allows hard disk modules to be simply plugged in or pulled out.

The hard disk subsystem is designed for Ultra3 SCSI. The hard disk subsystem can be controlled by a standard controller or by a RAID controller. You will find one SCSI controller onboard. If the server is equipped with a RAID controller with the corresponding RAID configuration, any defective hard disk module can also be replaced during operation (hot swap).

Accessible drives

The PRIMERGY L200 server contains device bays for one 3.5 inch slimline floppy disk drive and one 5.25 inch slimline CD-ROM drive. Both drives are installed as standard.

Onboard LAN and VGA

The system board contains two redundant 10/100 MBit/s (Fast Ethernet) TX LAN controllers and an ATI Rage XL graphics controller with 8 MB memory onboard.

Power supply

The PRIMERGY L200 server is equipped with a permanently installed power supply unit.

A26361-K647-Z102-3-7619 3

Introduction Features

Extension slots

The PRIMERGY L200 server is equipped with two PCI slots:

– PCI slot 64 bit/66 MHz for a long or a short PCI board

– PCI slot optional 64 bit/66 MHz for a short PCI board or 32 bit/33 MHz for the RSB board.

ChipDISK onboard

An onboard compact flash disk adapter for RemoteView is designed in the system board of the L200 server.

High level of availability and failure protection

When accessing stored data, 1-bit-errors in the main memory are automatically recognized and corrected (ECC = Error Checking and Correction).

ASR&R tunes out defective system components during an automatic system reboot.

The Prefailure Detection and Analysing Technology reports the threat of system errors or problems to the system administrator so that preventative measures can be taken.

The optional disk array controller increases system availability and supports the RAID levels 0,1 and 5. The hot swappable hard disks provide additional protection.

Server management

Server management is implemented with the aid of the supplied ServerView software and PDA (Prefailure Detection and Analyzing) technology from Fujitsu Siemens. PDA analyzes and monitors all components that are vital for the system's reliability.

ServerView enables the management of all PRIMERGY servers in the network via a central console. Here ServerView supports the following functions:

● Remote power-on (Wake On LAN)

● Temperature monitoring of the CPU and the surrounding area.

● Timer-controlled switch-on (Timer)

● Watchdog timer for Automatic Server Reconfiguration and Restart (ASR&R) in the event of failure of memory modules or processors.

Options Introduction

● Power monitoring

● End-of-Life monitoring of the fans with timely notification before a failure

● Watchdog timer for operating system monitoring and application monitoring

● Detailed status error reports for bus systems, processors and main memory

● Storage of error messages in the non-volatile SRAM memory

Further information on the ServerView server management is provided in the associated documentation (see “Related Publications” on page 69).

ServerStart

You can configure the PRIMERGY server quickly and purposefully with the ServerStart software provided. User-guided menus are available for installing the server operating systems.

Service and Support

PRIMERGY servers are service-friendly and modular, thus enabling quick and simple maintenance. The flash EPROM program supplied with the FSC utilities supports fast BIOS update BIOS update. With the optional Remote Test and Diagnosis System RemoteView, long-distance maintenance and service (remote) can also be performed on the servers of the PRIMERGY series.

1.2 Options

RemoteView Service Board

The RemoteView Service Board (RSB) is included in the integrated Server Management Concept from Fujitsu Siemens, RemoteView and ServerView. It consists of software and hardware components which allow remote monitoring and maintenance as well as a rapid return to operational integrity in the event of an error. Remote monitoring and maintenance avoids time-consuming and costly on-site repairs and reduces service costs. This leads to a reduction in the total cost of ownership and to an excellent return on investment for the remote management solution.

The RemoteView Service Board (RSB) is a PCI board with a completely independent system. It has its own operating system with web server and SNMP agent and can optionally be powered by an external power supply. The RSB is mounted in a standard PCI slot and connected with a power cable and

4.5 Configuration with ServerStart

ServerStart is a powerful tool for setting up your new PRIMERGY server. ServerStart lets you quickly and smoothly configure and install hardware, the operating system, and additional components.

The ServerStart advantage

– Automatically configure your server hardware and disk arrays

– Receive installation help for all leading server operating systems

– Create configuration files for the unattended installation of several PRIMERGY servers with identical hardware configurations

– Install drivers and additional software

I Which software can be installed depends on the hardware configuration of your server. This configuration is automatically detected.

38 A26361-K647-Z102-3-7619

Preparation for Use and Operation Configuration with ServerStart

Using ServerStart

The ServerStart user interface is divided into two areas. All the menus for the application can be quickly found in the Tree View area on the left. In the User Frame area on the right you can navigate the underlined objects just as you would with an internet browser.

Figure 13: Start-up stream of ServerStart

4.5.1 Installation Procedure in ServerStart

With the help of ServerStart you can carry out the first installation of your server and perform later adjustments.

I Information about the installation can be found in the accompanying booklet for the ServerStart CD-ROM.

Preparation

To install your PRIMERGY server and operating system, you need to boot the computer from the ServerStart CD. In some circumstances you will need to adjust several settings to do this:

A26361-K647-Z102-3-7619 39


For CD-ROM drives on a IDE bus:

Ê Ensure that the corresponding IDE channel is activated in the BIOS of the system board and that the CD-ROM drive is the first boot device in the boot sequence.

Selecting the desired installation mode

To set up a single server:

It is recommended to configure ServerStart in Guided Mode on the target system. Compared to the Expert Mode, this offers increased security by the recognition and configuration of the hardware. Continue with section “Guided Installation of a Single Server” on page 40.

I If you decide to install in Expert Mode, you will need to know the hard disk capacity and how to remove cards and configure hard disks.

To set up several servers with identical hardware configurations:

In this case, create a target configuration file on a floppy disk either in the Prepa-ration Mode or using the example in the Guided Mode. Continue with section “Replicated Installation of Several Servers (Windows)” on page 42.

I Only one boot system can be selected in the Preparation Mode and in the Guided Mode, and only one RAID array can be set as a boot device. If the capacity of the boot drive cannot be determined, select the “Automatic” option for an optimal partitioning.

4.5.2 Guided Installation of a Single Server

Installation in Guided Mode

In Guided Mode, installation assistants configure your server hardware and disk arrays and then install the operating system and integrated applications. For the new installation, standard settings are loaded from a Default Configuration File. This configuration file can be found on the ServerStart CD and may be edited by the administrator.

40 A26361-K647-Z102-3-7619


Proceed as follows:

Ê Switch on the server and place the ServerStart CD in the drive.

Ê Switch off the server and then switch it on again. ServerStart will now be started from the CD-ROM on the target system.

Ê After the boot process the ServerStart user interface appears. Select the installation mode and follow the installation process in the User Frame.

Ê A hardware analysis of the target system is performed and configuration files will be gathered for the installation. Configuration data is gathered for a hardware analysis of the target system.

Ê After the configuration definition has been completed, the installation phase is initiated without any additional restart. Data carriers with the operating system, Service packs, and additional applications are then required to start the installation.

The rest of the installation process including all necessary restarts executes without any input from the user.

I Exception: Necessary specifications that were not made in the configuration phase will be requested during the installation.

Figure 14: Installation in Guided Mode

A26361-K647-Z102-3-7619 41


I During the installation of Windows NT/2000 and NetWare 5, ServerStart also automatically integrates drivers for system components that are not contained in the operating system. During the installation of other operating systems, ServerStart notifies the user of the missing drivers. If necessary the user can now make a driver installation floppy.

Alternative installation in Expert Mode

In contrast to the Disk and RAID Wizards in the Guided Mode, the Expert Mode lets you directly configure the hardware using the tools specifically from the manufacturer.

– Windows NT Disk Administrator, Global Flash ServicePartition Manager, DuplexData Partition Manager

– Mylex GAM (Global Access Manager), Storage Manager

In connection with the configuration in the Expert Mode, the operating system installation can be performed analogously to the Guided Mode.

I To update BIOS, firmware, and drivers with Global Flash, you will need a service partition. You can set this up conveniently using the Disk Wizard from ServerStart.

4.5.3 Replicated Installation of Several Servers (Windows)

Step 1: Making a boot disk in the Preparation Mode

In this operating mode with the help of the installation assistants, you can create adapted configuration files for the unattended installation of your PRIMERGY server.

I You can also set up installation floppy disks with all the detected config-uration definitions after the configuration of the target system in Guided Mode and in Expert Mode.

42 A26361-K647-Z102-3-7619


Proceed as follows:

The Preparation Mode starts if ServerStart was installed as an application on an arbitrary Windows PC. Because this computer is not necessarily the target system, no automatic hardware analysis can take place. You will need to manually fill in the necessary information (LAN topology, computer name, IP address).

Ê Fill in the required information in the corresponding menus.

V CAUTION!

It is important to correctly specify the boot drive:

– Which SCSI device is the boot disk for the SCSI controller (SCSI ID)?

– How many disks are available for a RAID array and which RAID level (0/1/5) should be used?

I Other devices such as graphics cards or network hardware are automat-ically detected and installed on the target system.

Ê After the configuration has been completed, save the gathered information in an arbitrary file with the *.ini extension either on the hard disk or on a floppy disk. This file can be reopened at an time and modified from within configuration user interface.

I In this way you can store several configuration records for various target systems.

Ê In order to install a corresponding target system based on the gathered configuration data, you need to create a boot disk and copy the configuration file to this disk under the filename SerStartBatch.ini.

A26361-K647-Z102-3-7619 43


Step 2: Configuration of the target system in Replication Mode

Proceed as follows:

I In the BIOS for the system board and SCSI adapter, define the boot sequence such that the CD-ROM drive precedes the floppy disk drive (see “Related Publications” on page 69).

Ê With the configuration disk in the drive, boot the target system from the ServerStart CD. ServerStart starts in Replication Mode and the installation runs automatically based on the configuration file.

Device drivers needed to operate the detected hardware components will be reported and pre installed on the selected operating system.

V CAUTION!

To successfully install in Replication Mode, the configuration data must agree with the hardware configuration on the target system.

I Intervention in the installation process is only necessary to change data carriers (operating system, service packs, applications) and in the event of an incorrect or incomplete hardware recognition.

The installation is complete.

7 System Components and Expansions

This chapter describes how to replace SCSI hard disk modules.

V CAUTION!


V CAUTION!

If you do not wish to carry out hot plug operations, then shut down the operating system, switch off the server, and pull the power plug out of the power outlet.

7.1 SCSI Hard Disk Subsystem

The SCSI hard disk subsystem consists of the hard disk modules, the SCSI backplane and the SCSI controller.

You can mount up to three hard disk modules into the PRIMERGY L200 server. Only Ultra3 SCSI drives (LVD) with a 3.5 inch format, a maximum height of 1inch and a SCA interface are used. The hard disk drives are mounted in slide-in units which makes it very easy to insert or remove the hard disk. The slide-in units are equipped with a status indicator and an error indicator.

If a SCSI hard disk drive is operated on a disk-array controller (DAC) and belongs to a disk-array operated in RAID level 1 or level 5, a hard disk drive can be replaced during operation (hot-swapping). To swap a hard disk drive with the same or a higher capacity. A rebuild of the data on the new hard disk drive is performed automatically after the replacement, provided that the DAC is configured correctly. Refer to the information on the ServerBooks CD or in the DAC manual (see also “Related Publications” on page 69).

I In order to be able to recognize a hard disk drive’s capacity at once when replaced, several prefabricated stickers displaying imprinted storage capacities are provided with the server. Each hard disk module should be labeled with a sticker indicating the capacity of the installed hard disk drive. In case no suitable sticker is available, blank stickers for labeling are also provided. The stickers are color coded for an easier identifi-cation.

SCSI Hard Disk Subsystem System Components and Expansions

The SCSI IDs of the hard disk modules are assigned by the SCSI backplane in the order 0, 1, 2 from left to right.

Notes on RAID levels

– RAID level 0 and 7Rebuild is not possible. If a hard disk drive fails, its data is lost.

– RAID level 1 and 5 without standby hard disk driveRebuild on the new disk is carried out automatically when the old disk is swapped.

– RAID level 1 with standby hard disk driveA standby hard disk drive is automatically enabled as a replacement for the defective hard disk drive, and the data of the defective disk is rebuilt on the standby disk.

Ê Read the documentation for the new hard disk drive.

7.1.1 Components and Indicators of the Hard Disk Module

The hard disk drives which can be ordered for the server are supplied already mounted in the hard disk modules. The slide-in units are equipped with a status indicator and an error indicator. Empty bays are covered with dummy covers.

V CAUTION!

A hard disk drive in the hard disk carrier may only be replaced by a service technician.

7.1.2 Installing/Removing a SCSI Hard Disk Module

If a hard disk module is to be installed in a bay in which no hard disk module was previously installed, then the dummy cover must be removed from this bay beforehand.

Removing the dummy cover

Figure 16: Removing dummy cover

Ê Press the two locking tabs at the left and right on the dummy cover together (1) until the detent is released.

Ê Remove the dummy cover from the bay (2).

V CAUTION!

Keep the dummy module for future use. If the hard disk module is removed again and not replaced with a new module, then the dummy cover must be reinstalled due to cooling, the applicable EMC regulations (electromagnetic compatibility) and fire protection.

Installing the dummy cover

Ê Insert the dummy cover into the bay.

I Make sure that the dummy cover engages properly in the bay.

7.1.3 Replacing a Hard Disk Module During Operation -Hot Swapping

V CAUTION!

A SCSI hard disk module may only be replaced during operation if the orange LED on the hard disk module remains lit.

V CAUTION!

Never pull out an internal hard disk module during operation if you are not sure that the hard disk drive operates on a disk array controller and is part of a disk array that operates in mode RAID level 1 or 5.

If you replace a hard disk module during operation, proceed as follows:

Ê Solve the locking mechanism of the hard disk module indicated as defective by pressing the locking button.

Ê Swing the handle of the hard disk module fully upwards.

Ê Pull out the hard disk module a few centimeters.

Ê Wait at least 60 seconds so that the disk array controller can recognize that a hard disk drive has been removed and that the hard disk can come to rest.

Ê Pull the hard disk module completely out.

Ê Solve the locking mechanism of the new hard disk module by pressing the locking button.

Ê Swing the handle of the new hard disk module fully upwards.

Ê Insert the new hard disk module in the bay.

Ê Now swing the carrier handle of the hard disk module completely down to enable the locking mechanism to engage.

The SCSI IDs of the hard disk modules are assigned by the SCSI backplane (see section “SCSI Hard Disk Subsystem” on page 55).
