RX600 S4 Operating manual 7

1 Preface

The PRIMERGY RX600 S4 server is an Intel-based server for mid-size and

large companies. The server is suitable for use as a file server and also as an

application, information or Internet server. It is used as a rack model.

Thanks to its highly developed hardware and software components, the server

offers a high level of data security and availability. These include hot-plug HDD

modules, hot-plug system fans and power supply units, and also hot-plug PCI

slots, the Server Management Software ServerView, "Prefailure Detection and

Analysis" (PDA) and "Automatic Server Reconfiguration and Restart" (ASR&R).

Security functions in the BIOS-Setup and on the system board protect the data

on the server against manipulation. Additional security is provided by the

lockable rack door.

The server occupies 4 height units (HU) in the rack.

1.1 Concept and target groups for this manual

This operating manual describes how to install, set up and operate your server.

This operating manual is intended for those responsible for installing the

hardware and ensuring that the system runs smoothly. It contains all the infor-

mation you need to put your PRIMERGY RX600 S4 into operation.

To understand the various expansion options, you will need to be familiar with

the fields of hardware and data transmission and you will require a basic

knowledge of the underlying operating system.

RX600 S4 Operating manual 9

Preface Features

Further sources of information:

– Manual for the monitor

– Documentation for boards and drives

– Documentation for your operating system

– Information files on your operating system

1.3 Features

Customer Self Service (CSS)

The Fujitsu Siemens Computers Customer Self Service (CSS) concept enables

you to identify and replace the affected component yourself in the case of

certain error scenarios.

In the CSS concept, you can replace the following components yourself in the

event of an error:

– Hot-plug hard disk drives

– Hot-plug power supply units

– Memory modules

– System fans

– Expansion cards

For information on replacing these components, see chapter “CSS compo-

nents” on page 81.

CSS indicators on the control panel and on the back of the PRIMERGY server

provide you with information if a CSS event arises (for more information on the

behavior of these indicators, see chapter “Starting up and operation” on

page 55 and the "Customer Self Service (CSS)" manual on the ServerBooks

DVD).

You can also fit your server with a ServerView Local Service Panel, which

enables you to identify the type of component affected by the error directly on

the server (for more information, see the "Customer Self Service (CSS)" manual

on the ServerBooks DVD).

In addition, CSS errors are displayed in ServerView S2, the server

management software from Fujitsu Siemens Computers.

10 Operating manual RX600 S4

Features Preface

In the event of errors, ServerView S2 refers you directly to the affected

component and its order information in the Illustrated Spares catalog of the

server in question.

System board

The features of the system board are described in the technical manual for the

system board D2244 for the hardware and in the “BIOS Setup” for the firmware.

Hot-plug PCI slots

The server has three standard PCI slots and four hot-plug PCI slots. These hot-

plug PCI slots allow installation and removal of boards during operation when

the operating system supports this function (for further details see section “Hot-

plug expansion cards” on page 97).

Hard disk drives

The server is equipped with a drive bay in which up to 8 SAS HDD modules can

be inserted. Each HDD module can accommodate an SAS hard disk drive with

a 2.5-inch format. The modules are connected to the SAS backplane wirelessly.

This allows HDD modules to be plugged in or pulled out easily.

The hard disk system is designed for SAS with one channel for each hard disk

drive.

If the server has the corresponding RAID configuration, HDD modules can also

be replaced during operation.

An external SCSI interface is also offered optionally to allow external storage

subsystems to be connected. You will find further information in the Options

Guide.

Onboard SAS RAID controller

There is an onboard SAS RAID controller for operating eight SAS hard disk

drives. RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 10 and 50 are supported.

A BBU backs up the memory contents also in the event of power failure (option).
