Information Update 3

Information Update

Installing an Internal USB Memory Key

The USB memory key can be used as a boot device, security key, or mass

storage device. To use the internal USB connector, the Internal USB Port

option must be enabled in the Integrated Devices screen of the System Setup

program.

To boot from the USB memory key, you must configure the USB memory

key with a boot image and then specify the USB memory key in the boot

sequence in the System Setup program. See "Integrated Devices Screen"

in your

Hardware Owner’s Manual

For information on creating a bootable file

on the USB memory key, see the user documentation that accompanied

the USB memory key.

WARNING: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician.

You should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in

your product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service

and support team.

NOTE: To avoid interference with other components, the maximum allowable

dimensions of the USB key are 24 mm (0.94 in) wide x 79 mm (3.11 in) long x 8.6 mm

(0.33 in) high.

Turn off the system, including any attached peripherals, and disconnect

the system from the electrical outlet.

Open the system. See "Removing and Installing the Top Cover"

in your

Hardware Owner’s Manual

Locate the USB connector on the system board. See Figure 6-1

in your

Hardware Owner’s Manual

Insert the USB memory key into the USB connector.

Close the system. See "Removing and Installing the Top Cover"

in your

Hardware Owner’s Manual

Reconnect the system to power and restart the system.

4Information Update

Figure 1. Removing or Installing a USB Memory Key

Added Support for 8-GB Memory Modules

Your Dell™ PowerEdge™ R900 system now supports the following 8-GB

memory configurations:

• 32 GB — 4 x 8-GB quad-rank memory modules

• 64 GB — 8 x 8-GB quad-rank memory modules

NOTE: If 64 GB of memory is installed, the system will only recognize

and display 63.75 GB during POST.

• 128 GB — 16 x 8-GB quad-rank memory modules

• 256 GB — 32 x 8-GB quad-rank memory modules

NOTE: Prior to upgrading your system, verify that the latest system BIOS version is

on your system. Loading the latest BIOS version from support.dell.com will ensure

that your system is fully supported.

NOTE: Some operating systems cannot support more than 4 GB of physical

memory. For more information on memory support requirements and restrictions,

refer to the operating system documentation that ships with your system.

Information Update 5

BMC and DRAC5 Firmware Version Requirements

When upgrading either the BMC or the DRAC5, you must update the

firmware for both components to ensure full functionality and compatibility.

For example, the power reduction feature of the DRAC5 version 1.40

firmware works only when BMC 2.27 or higher is also installed. If the BMC

and DRAC firmware are incompatible—BMC 2.27 installed with DRAC5

version 1.33 or BMC 1.79 installed with DRAC5 version 1.40—the power

reduction feature may not function correctly.

Back Cooling Fans

Systems manufactured after September 2008 no longer include the four back

cooling fans installed in earlier systems. Therefore, BMC version 2.27 does

not recognize the presence of back fans. The back fans will still run in older

systems; however, from a system perspective, the fans do not exist and are

not monitored. As a result, if the back fans fail, the SEL, server management

software, and remote access card will not log the error. This change does not

compromise the standard hot plug and redundancy features of the front fans.

New LCD Error Codes

The following LCD error codes have been added for your system. For a

Encrypted Data

On systems using an operating system that supports the Trusted Platform

Module (TPM) and related encryption programs, you can use these features

to secure the contents of the hard drive(s).

If you are using the TPM with an encryption program, you may be prompted

to create a recovery key during system or program setup. Be sure to create and

safely store this recovery key. If you ever need to replace the system board, you

must supply the recovery key when you restart your system or program, before

you can access the encrypted data on your hard drive(s).
