Netra Blade X3-2B

(formerly Sun Netra X6270 M3 Server Module)

Getting Started Guide

Basic Installation Tasks

The following tasks describe the basic installation process for the blade. Detailed installation information can be

found in the Netra Blade X3-2B Installation Guide.

For a list of documentation for this system, see “Related Documentation” at the end of this document. If you are

installing a Sun Netra 6000 chassis for the first time, read the chassis documentation first.

▼Review Safety Information

Before performing an installation, see the Safety and Compliance Guide (online) and the Important Safety

Information for Sun Hardware Systems (in the system accessory kit).

▼Review Supported Hardware and Software and Identify Known Issues

Review the Netra Blade X3-2B Product Notes for information on supported software and hardware and any

known issues for the blade.

▼Install Optional Components

Optional components for your blade might be packaged and shipped separately. If applicable, install optional

components (such as DIMMs or hard drives) prior to installing the blade into the chassis. See the Netra Blade X3-

2B Service Manual for installation procedures for optional components.

For a complete list of optional components, refer to the Netra Blade X3-2B product page at:

http://www.oracle.com/goto/netra-blade-x3-2b.

▼Insert the Blade Into a Chassis

1. Verify that the Sun Netra 6000 modular system chassis is powered on.

2. Make sure that the fans are operating and the OK/Power LED illuminates a steady-on green light.

If an amber service LED is illuminated on any chassis components, see the Sun Netra 6000 Modular System

Service Manual or chassis documentation to identify and correct the faults.

3. At the front of the chassis, locate and remove the filler panel from the slot where you will insert the

blade.

Pinch together the ends of the filler panel ejector arm handle to unlock it, rotate the lever out to the open

position, and eject the filler panel.

Caution – Do not operate the chassis with empty slots for more than 60 seconds. Always insert a filler

panel into an empty slot to reduce the possibility of chassis shutdown. If you are not installing a blade

into a slot, do not remove the slot filler panel. The slot filler panel is required to meet FCC standards

for electromagnetic interference (EMI) and affects the chassis cooling.

4. Open both of the blade ejector levers, and position the blade vertically so that the ejectors are on the

right.

5. Push the blade into the slot until the blade stops and is flush with the chassis (see 1).

6. Lock the blade into the chassis by rotating both ejector levers in flush with the blade, until they click into

place (see 2).

Upon insertion, standby power is applied to the blade service processor (SP).

Note – The SP can take several minutes to boot. As the SP is booting, the OK/Power LED blinks rapidly.

7. Verify that the blade has successfully powered-on to standby mode.

After the SP boots, the OK/Power LED illuminates a standby blink. The standby blink state indicates that the

SP has successfully powered on and is ready for normal operation.

Note – If there is insufficient chassis power available, the blade OK/Power LEDs will remain off. See the Netra

Blade X3-2B Service Manual for information on troubleshooting LED states.

▼Update Software and Firmware

1. Make sure that the blade is correctly installed in the chassis, as described in “Insert the Blade Into a

Chassis” in this document.

2. Determine the method you want to use for updating the software and firmware:

■If Oracle System Assistant is embedded on the system, continue with Step 3.

This is the easiest method for setting up the server. Oracle System Assistant enables you to update to the

latest available firmware and software, easily configure key server settings, and install Oracle VM, Oracle

Linux, and Windows operating systems.

■If Oracle System Assistant is not embedded and you want to access it through Oracle ILOM, see the

instructions in the Netra Blade X3-2B Administration Guide.

■If you want to use Oracle ILOM or Oracle Hardware Management Pack, see the instructions in the

Netra Blade X3-2B Administration Guide.

3. Set up a local connection to the blade.

Attach the multi-port cable to the universal connector port (UCP) on the front of the blade, and attach the

following to the UCP:

■Monitor to the video connector on the multi-port cable.

■Keyboard and mouse to one of the USB ports on the multi-port cable.

4. Press the front-panel power button to power on the server to full power mode.

The server boots and POST messages are displayed on the monitor.

5. When prompted, press the F9 key.

The Oracle System Assistant application boots and the main screen is displayed.

6. Use Oracle System Assistant to perform the following tasks:

7. (Optional) Connect to Oracle ILOM to perform server management tasks.

You can connect either through the Oracle ILOM CMM or the blade SP. For instructions, see the Netra Blade

X3-2B Installation Guide.

▼Set Up Operating System and Drivers

The following table lists options for installing and configuring an operating system (OS) and drivers.

Service and Technical Support

If you need to service your system, you might be asked for your hardware serial number. The serial number is

on the front of the blade. Or, you can use the Oracle ILOM web interface, CLI command show /SYS, or Oracle

System Assistant to view the serial number.
