1-10 Compaq ProLiant DL360 Generation 2 Server Setup and Installation Guide

Server Configuration and Management

Compaq offers an extensive set of features and optional tools to support server
configuration and management. This section briefly explains the following
features:

■ ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU)

RBSU performs a wide range of configuration activities and provides
access to numerous settings, including those for system devices,
operating system selection and boot controller order.

■ Redundant ROM Support

The ProLiant DL360 G2 server has a 2-MB ROM that acts as separate,
1-MB ROMs one of which contains the current version of the ROM
firmware, while the second contains the previous version of the
firmware. If the first ROM becomes corrupt, the system defaults to the
backup version, maximizing uptime and server availability.

■ ROMPaq Utility

Flash ROM enables you to upgrade the firmware (BIOS) with system or
option ROMPaq utilities.

■ Remote ROM Flash Utility

The Remote ROM Flash Utility enables a user with administrator
privileges to flash ROM remotely on servers running Novell NetWare or
Microsoft Windows NT and Windows 2000 operating systems.

■ ROM Legacy USB Support

The ProLiant DL360 G2 server supports several USB devices for
operating systems that provide USB support of: CD-ROM, diskette
drive, keyboard, and mouse. For operating systems without USB
support, the ProLiant DL360 G2 server ROM provides USB support for
keyboards and mouse devices.

■ Compaq SmartStart for Servers CD

The SmartStart CD is the recommended method for loading system
software, thereby achieving a well-integrated server, ensuring maximum
dependability and supportability.

■ SmartStart Diskette Builder

The SmartStart Diskette Builder is a utility that uses data stored on the
SmartStart CD to create support diskettes. Support diskettes may be
created for specific configuration needs or for software that cannot be
used directly from the SmartStart CD.

Server Features 1-11

■

SmartStart Scripting Toolkit

The SmartStart Scripting Toolkit is a set of DOS-based utilities that
allow configuration and deployment of servers in a customized,
predictable, and unattended manner. These utilities provide scripted
server and array replication for mass server deployment and duplication
of a configured source server onto target systems with minimum user
interaction.

■ Compaq Insight Manager XE

Compaq Insight Manager XE is installed from the Compaq
Management CD and is an easy-to-use software utility for collecting
information on server performance. Data, including fault conditions,
security alerts, remote management, and recovery services are recorded.

■ Compaq Diagnostics Utility

The Diagnostics utility displays information about the server hardware
and tests the system to ensure it is operating correctly.

■ Automatic Server Recovery (ASR-2)

ASR-2 enables the server to boot automatically from either the
operating system or the Compaq utilities. If there is a critical system
failure, ASR-2 automatically restarts the server and pages a designated
system administrator.

■ Integrated Management Log (IML)

The IML provides a detailed log of key system events. This log, which
also monitors the server health log, is accessible by utilities, including
Compaq Insight Manager XE and Integrated Lights-Out (iLO)
Management.

For more detailed information about these tools and utilities, see Chapter 8,

This chapter provides information and instructions for planning the installation

of a new Compaq server. Figure 2-1 illustrates multiple ProLiant DL360 G2

servers installed in a rack.

Figure 2-1. ProLiant DL360 G2 servers installed in a rack

The following sections describe the server and site preparation requirements

needed for the safe and correct installation of a server. This preparation

includes:

■ Optimum environment considerations

■ Rack planning resources

■ Rack warnings

2-2 Compaq ProLiant DL360 Generation 2 Server Setup and Installation Guide

■

Server warnings and cautions

■ Server shipping contents

■ Optional installation service

If multiple ProLiant DL360 G2 servers are to be deployed in a single rack,
consult the multiple server deployment white papers on the Compaq website:

www.compaq.com/products/servers/ProLiantdl360

Optimum Environment

When installing a Compaq ProLiant DL360 G2 server in a rack, select a
location that meets the environmental standards described in the following
paragraphs.

Space and Airflow Requirements

To allow for servicing and adequate airflow, observe the following spatial
requirements when deciding where to install a Compaq, Telco, or third-party
rack:

■ Leave a minimum clearance of 63.5 cm (25 inches) in front of the rack.

■ Leave a minimum clearance of 76.2 cm (30 inches) in the back of the

rack.

■ Leave a minimum clearance of 121.9 cm (48 inches) from the back of

the rack to the rear of another rack or row of racks.

Compaq servers draw in cool air through the rack front door and expel warm
air through the rack rear door. Therefore, the front and rear rack doors must be
adequately ventilated to allow ambient room air to enter the cabinet and warm
air to escape from the rear of the cabinet.

IMPORTANT: Do not block the ventilation openings.

When there is any vertical space in the rack not filled by servers or rack
components, the gaps between the components cause changes in airflow
through the rack and across the servers. Cover all gaps with blanking panels to
maintain proper airflow.

Compaq 9000 Series racks provide proper server cooling from flow-through
perforations in the front and rear doors that provide 64 percent open area for
ventilation.

Planning the Server Installation 2-3

CAUTION: When using a Compaq 7000 Series rack, you must install the high
airflow rack door insert [P/N 327281-B21 (42U) and P/N 157847-B21 (22U)] to
provide proper front-to-back airflow and cooling.

CAUTION: If a third-party rack is used, observe the following additional
requirements to ensure adequate airflow and to prevent damage to the
equipment:

■ Front and rear doors: if your 42U server rack includes closing front and

rear doors, you must allow 5,350 sq cm (830 square inches) of holes
evenly distributed from top to bottom to permit adequate airflow
(equivalent to the required 64 percent open area for ventilation).

■ Side: The clearance between the installed rack component and the side

panels of the rack must be a minimum of 7 cm (2.75 inches).

CAUTION: Always use blanking panels to fill empty vertical spaces in the rack.
This arrangement ensures proper airflow. Using a rack without blanking panels
results in improper cooling that can lead to thermal damage.

Temperature Requirements

To ensure continued safe and reliable equipment operation, install or locate the

system in a well-ventilated, climate-controlled environment.

The Compaq maximum recommended ambient operating temperature

(TMRA) for most server products is 35°C (95°F). The temperature in the room

where the rack is located must not exceed 35°C

(95°F).

Power Requirements

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, fire, or damage to the

equipment, do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to
the rack. Consult the electrical authority having jurisdiction over your facility’s
wiring and installation requirements.

The installation of this equipment shall be in accordance with local/regional

electrical regulations governing the installation of information technology

equipment by licensed electricians. This equipment is designed to operate in

installations covered by NFPA 70, 1999 Edition (National Electric Code) and

NFPA 75, 1992 Edition (code for Protection of Electronic Computer/Data

Processing Equipment). For electrical power ratings on options, refer to the

product’s rating label or the user documentation supplied with that option.

2-4 Compaq ProLiant DL360 Generation 2 Server Setup and Installation Guide

When installing more than one server, additional power distribution devices
may be required to safely provide power to all devices. Observe the following
guidelines:

■ The power load must be balanced between available AC supply branch

circuits.

■ The overall system AC current load must not exceed 80 percent of the

branch circuit AC current rating.

Grounding Requirements

For proper operation and safety, the server must be properly grounded. In the
United States, you must install the equipment in accordance with NFPA 70,
1999 Edition (National Electric Code) Article 250 as well as any local and
regional building codes. In Canada, the equipment must be installed in
accordance with Canadian Standards Association, CSA C22.1, Canadian
Electrical Code. In all other countries, the installation must follow any
regional or national electrical wiring codes, such as the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 364, parts 1 through 7. Furthermore, you
must ensure that all power distribution devices used in the installation—such
as branch wiring and receptacles—are listed or certified grounding-type
devices.

Because of the high ground leakage currents associated with multiple servers
connected to the same power source, Compaq recommends the use of a power
distribution unit (PDU) that is either permanently wired to the building’s
branch circuit or includes a non-detachable cord that is wired to an
industrial-style plug. NEMA locking-style plugs or those complying with
IEC 60309 are considered suitable for this purpose. Compaq does not
recommend using common power outlet strips for this equipment.

Rack Warnings

Before installing a rack, ensure you read and understand the following
warnings:

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, always
ensure that the rack is adequately stabilized before extending a component out
of the rack. Extend only one component at a time. A rack may become unstable
if more than one component is extended for any reason.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, ensure
that:

■ The leveling jacks are extended to the floor.

■ The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.

■ The stabilizers are attached to the rack for single-rack installation.

■ The racks are coupled together in multiple-rack installations.

WARNING: When installing the server in a Telco rack, ensure that the rack
frame is adequately secured to the top and bottom of the building structure.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage, at least
two people are needed to safely unload the rack from the pallet. An empty 42U
rack can weigh as much as 115 kg (253 lb), can stand more than 2.1 m (7 ft)
tall, and may become unstable when being moved on its casters.

Never stand in front of the rack when it is rolling down the ramp from the pallet;
always handle the rack from both sides.

CAUTION: Always begin by mounting the heaviest item on the bottom of the
rack. Continue to populate the rack from the bottom to the top.

Server Warnings and Cautions

Before installing your server, ensure you understand the following warnings
and cautions:

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the
drives and the internal system components to cool before touching them.

Planning the Server Installation 2-7

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:

■ Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an

important safety feature.

■ Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is

easily accessible at all times.

■ Unplug the power cord from the power supply to disconnect power to the

equipment.

CAUTION: Protect the server from power fluctuations and temporary
interruptions with a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS). This device
protects the hardware from damage caused by power surges and voltage spikes
and keeps the system in operation during a power failure.

CAUTION: Do not operate the server for long periods without the access panel.
Operating the server without the access panel results in improper airflow and
improper cooling that can lead to thermal damage.

Compaq Integrated Lights-Out is a new feature of selected Compaq
ProLiant servers. Integrated Lights-Out (iLO) provides server health and
remote server management. The iLO features are accessed from a network
client using a standard Web browser. In addition to other features, iLO
provides keyboard, mouse, and video capability for a server, regardless of
the state of the host operating system or host server.

The iLO sub-system includes an intelligent microprocessor, secure memory,
and a dedicated network interface. This design makes iLO independent of the
host server and its operating system. Remote access is provided by iLO to any
authorized network client and alert notification is supported along with other
server management functions.

Using a standard Web browser, you can:

■ Remotely access the console of the host server. Text mode is standard.

Graphics console with full keyboard and mouse controls is available as a
separate option.

■ Remotely power up, power down, or reboot the host server.

■ Remotely boot the host server from a virtual floppy to perform a ROM

upgrade or to install an operating system. Virtual floppy is available as a
separate option.

■ Access the Compaq Insight Manager agents on a host server through

iLO.

■ Send alerts from iLO regardless of the state of the host server.

■ Access advanced troubleshooting features provided by iLO.

■ Launch a Web browser, use Simple Network Management Protocol

(SNMP) alerting, and diagnose iLO using Compaq Insight Manager.

Features

Integrated Lights-Out offers the following features:

■ Virtual Graphical Remote Console

Graphical remote console capability is provided by iLO embedded
hardware that turns a standard browser into a virtual desktop, giving the
user full control over the host server’s display, keyboard, and mouse.
The operating system independent console supports text and graphic
modes, displaying remote host server activities, such as shutdown and
startup operations. Text mode is standard. Graphics mode is available
as a separate option.

■ Virtual Power Button

Using any standard browser interface, iLO can be used to remotely

operate a host server’s power button. For example, if the host server is
off, you can turn it on from a remote console.

■ Power Cycle (Reset)

If the remote host server is not responding, this feature allows an
administrator to initiate a cold reboot to bring the server back online.

Virtual Media

With the Virtual Floppy Drive, an administrator can easily direct a
remote host server to boot and use a standard media from anywhere on
the network, thus saving time and increasing efficiency by eliminating
the need to visit a remote server to insert and use a diskette. This feature
allows administrators to carry out any of the following functions
remotely:

G Run Compaq User Diagnostics on remote host servers

G Apply ROMPaq™ upgrades to remote servers

G Deploy an operating system on remote servers from network drives

G Perform disaster recovery of failed operating systems

Virtual media is available as a separate option.

■ Remote Firmware Update

This feature ensures that iLO is always up-to-date with the latest
firmware available from Compaq. Updates to the ROM code on iLO is
accomplished through the browser interface.

■ Dedicated LAN network connectivity

A 10/100 Mbps Ethernet chip on the iLO provides administrators with a

dedicated network connection to iLO



. The iLO provides in-band
SNMP notification of server problems on a real-time basis without
separate telephone connections or modem sharing devices. The NIC can
autoselect speeds between 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps.

■ Virtual Private Network (VPN) support

When used in conjunction with VPN technology, iLO functionality is

available around the world

■ Reset and failure sequence replay

Video text sequences stored on the iLO allow an administrator to replay
server startup and shutdown sequences. The last two server resets and
the last server failure may be viewed.

■ User administration and security

12 users with customizable access rights, login names, client IP address
restrictions, and advanced password encryption are supported by iLO.
Secure password encryption, tracking of all login attempts and record
maintenance of all login failures is provided by iLO.

■ 128-bit encryption

Integrated Lights-Out provides strong security for remote management
in distributed IT environments. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption
(up to 128-bits) ensures the HTTP information is secure as it travels
across the network.

■ Auto configuration of IP address by means of DNS/DHCP

Integrated Lights-Out provides automatic network configuration. The
iLO comes with a default name and Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol (DHCP) client that leases an IP address from the DHCP server
on the network. For systems that do not use Domain Name Service
(DNS)/DHCP, Integrated Lights-Out allows static IP configuration.

The default user name, password, and DNS name are:

G User name: Administrator

G Password: A random, eight-character, alphanumeric string.

GDNS name: ILOXXXXXXXXXXXX where the 12 Xs are the serial

number of the server in which the iLO processor is located. The DNS
name of the iLO is configurable by the user.

IMPORTANT: User names and passwords are case sensitive.

Integrated Management Log

The iLO manages the server’s Integrated Management Log that can be
accessed using a standard browser, even when the server is not
operational. This capability can be helpful when troubleshooting remote
host server problems.

■ ROM-Based Configuration Utility F8

This versatile, system-independent ROM-Based Configuration Utility
enables fast and easy setup of iLO.

NOTE: Additional functionality for Integrated Lights-Out, such as full
Graphics Console and Virtual Media, is available by purchasing a separate
option from Compaq. More details of iLO are available at

Integrated Lights-Out Security Override

The iLO Security Override allows the administrator full access to the iLO
processor. This will be necessary in the event of a lost or forgotten
administrator password and also to flash the iLO boot-block. The iLO Security
Override is a jumper located inside the server and cannot be activated without
removing the server access panel.

Using the Integrated Lights-Out Security
Override Jumper

The iLO Security Override Jumper allows emergency access to the
administrator with physical control of the server’s system board. Setting the
iLO Security Override Jumper allows login access, with all privileges, without
a user id and password.

To set the iLO Security Override Jumper:

1. Power down the server, see “Powering Down the Server” in Chapter 3.

2. Remove the server access panel, see “Removing the Access Panel” in
Chapter 3.

3. Locate the three pins of J29 and move the jumper from the front and
center pins to the center and rear pins to override password security. J29
is to the front of the 30 pin Remote Insight Connector.

4. Press the Power/On Standby switch to power on the server.

5. Logon to the iLO and reset the passwords.

A warning message will be displayed on the iLO Web pages indicating the
iLO Security Override function is currently active. An iLO log entry will be
added recording the use of the iLO Security Override. An SNMP alert may
also be sent upon setting or clearing the iLO Security Override function.

In the unlikely event it is necessary, enabling the iLO Security Override also
enables the iLO boot-block to be flashed. The boot-block will be exposed
until the iLO is reset. Compaq recommends the iLO be disconnected from the
network until the reset is complete.

To reset the iLO Security Override Jumper:

1. Power down the server.

2. Remove the Security Override Jumper from the rear and center pins of
J29 and place between the front and center pins.

3. Replace the server access panel.

4. Press the Power/On Standby switch to power on the server and resume
normal operation.

Full integration is provided with iLO and Compaq Insight Manager 7 under
key operating environments. This integration:

■ Provides support for SNMP trap delivery to a Compaq Insight Manager

console

■ Provides support for a new device type, the management processor. All

iLO devices installed in servers on the network are discovered in
Compaq Insight Manager 7 as management processors. Management
processors are associated with the servers in which they are installed.

■ Provides Integrated Lights-Out hyperlinks

■ Provides a hyperlink on the server device page to launch and connect to

iLO easily.

■ Allows all iLO to be grouped together logically and displayed on one

page, which provides access to iLO from one point in Compaq Insight
Manager XE 7.

Browser Support

Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or later gives full and easy access to the
features of iLO. This gives administrators full control of the remote host
server’s display, keyboard, and mouse, regardless of the state of the host
server or operating system to perform all remote management tasks.
