System Features

The major hardware and software features of your system include:

• One or two Dual-Core Intel® Xeon® Processors 5000 Sequence.

• Support for symmetric multiprocessing (SMP), which is available on systems with two Intel Xeon processors. SMP greatly improves overall system performance by dividing processor operations between independent processors. To take advantage of this feature, you must use an operating system that supports multiprocessing.

NOTE: If you decide to upgrade your system by installing a second processor,

you must order the processor upgrade kits from your supplier. Not all versions of the Intel Xeon processor will work properly as additional processors. The upgrade kit contains the correct version of the processor, heat sink, and fan as well as the instructions for performing the upgrade.

• A minimum of 512 MB of 533 or 667 MHz (when available), Fully Buffered DIMMs (FBD), upgradable to a maximum of 48 GB by installing combinations of 256-MB, 512-MB, 1-GB, 2-GB, or 4-GB memory modules in the twelve memory module sockets on the system board.

The system also features redundant memory, which provides memory sparing or memory mirroring. Either feature is available if eight or twelve identical memory modules are installed.

• Support for up to ten 3.5-inch, internal hot-pluggable Serial-Attached SCSI (SAS) or SATA hard drives (eight 3.5-inch internal hard drives with hot-pluggable backplane board, and support for two additional hot-pluggable 3.5-inch drives in the peripheral bay using the optional 1x2 flexbay backplane board).

• Peripheral bay provides support for an optional optical drive and an optional half-height tape backup unit (TBU). A full-height TBU is supported with the 1x2 flexbay bracket removed.

• An optional single, 1.44-MB, 3.5-inch diskette drive.

• An optional CD, DVD, or combination CD-RW/DVD drive.

NOTE: DVD devices are data only.

• An intrusion switch that signals the appropriate systems management software if the top cover is opened.

• Up to two hot-pluggable, 930-W power supplies in a 1 + 1 redundant configuration.

• Six hot-pluggable system cooling fans.

Getting Started With Your System 5

The system board includes the following features:

• Six PCI slots located in an expansion-card cage. Slots 1 and 2 are 3.3-V, 64-bit, 133-MHz PCI-X slots; slot 3 is a 3.3-V, PCIe x8 lane; slots 4 through 6 are 3.3-V, PCIe x4 lanes. Expansion-card slots accommodate full-height, full-length expansion cards. PCIe slots accommodate up to x8 expansion cards.

• Dedicated PCI slot for an integrated SAS host bus adapter or an optional integrated RAID controller card with 256 MB of cache memory and a RAID battery.

NOTE: System boot is not supported from an external device attached to a

SAS or SCSI adapter, including SAS 5/E, PERC 5/E, or PERC 4e/DC. Contact your technical support provider for the latest support information about booting from external devices.

• Two integrated Gigabit Ethernet NICs, capable of supporting 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, and 1000-Mbps data rates.

• Six USB 2.0-compliant connectors (two on the front and four on the back) capable of supporting a diskette drive, a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive, a keyboard, a mouse, or a USB flash drive.

• Optional remote access controller (RAC) for remote systems management.

• An integrated VGA-compatible video subsystem with an ATI ES1000, 33-MHz PCI video controller. This video subsystem contains 16 MB of DDR SDRAM video memory (nonupgradable). Maximum resolution is 1600 x 1200 with 64 K colors; true-color graphics are supported in the following resolutions: 640 x 480, 800 x 600, 1024 x 768, 1152 x 864, and 1280 x 1024. When the optional RAC is installed, the video resolution is 1024 X 768.

• Systems management circuitry that monitors operation of the system fans as well as critical system voltages and temperatures. The systems management circuitry works in conjunction with the systems management software.

• Standard baseboard management controller with serial access.

• Back-panel connectors include one serial, one video, four USB, and two NIC connectors.

6 Getting Started With Your System

• Front-panel connectors include a video and two USB connectors.

• Front-panel 1x5 LCD for system ID and error messaging.

• System ID button on the front and back panels.

For more information about specific features, see "Technical Specifications" on page 12.

Supported Operating Systems

• Microsoft® Windows Storage Server™ 2003 R2 Express Edition (x64)

Obtaining Technical Assistance

If you do not understand a procedure in this guide or if the system does not perform as expected, see your Hardware Owner’s Manual.

Getting Started With Your System 7

Installation and Configuration

CAUTION: Before performing the following procedure, read and follow the

safety instructions and important regulatory information in your Product Information Guide.

This section describes the steps to set up your system for the first time. The illustrations that follow show a rack-mounted system, but the installation procedure applies in large part to a stand-alone tower system. In place of the rack installation in step 2, refer to the documentation included with your system on installing the stabilizer feet on your system.

CAUTION: Installing the feet on a stand-alone tower system is necessary to

provide a stable foundation for the system. Failure to install the feet poses the risk of having the system tip over, possibly causing bodily injury or damage to the system.

CAUTION: Whenever you need to lift the system, get others to assist you. To avoid

injury, do not attempt to lift the system by yourself.

Unpacking the System

Unpack your system and identify each item.

Keep all shipping materials in case you need them later.

8 Getting Started With Your System

Installing the Rails and System in a Rack

Once you have read the "Safety Instructions" located in the rack installation

documentation for your system, install the rails and the system in the rack.

See your rack installation documentation for instructions on installing your system in a rack.

For a tower system, see the documentation included with your system on installing the system stabilizer feet.

Getting Started With Your System 9

Connecting the Keyboard, Mouse, and Monitor

Connect the keyboard, mouse, and monitor (optional).

The connectors on the back of your system have icons indicating which cable to plug into each connector. Be sure to tighten the screws (if any) on the monitor's cable connector.

Connecting the Power

Connect the system’s power cable(s) to the system.

Plug the other end of the cable into a grounded electrical outlet or a separate power source such as an uninterrupted power supply (UPS) or a power distribution unit (PDU).

10 Getting Started With Your System

Installing the Power Cord Retention Bracket

Attach the power cord retention bracket on the right bend of the power supply handle. Bend the system power cable into a loop as shown in the illustration and attach to the bracket’s cable clasp. Repeat the procedure for the second power supply.

Turning on the System

Turn on the system and monitor (optional).

Press the power button on the system and the monitor. The power indicators should light. Adjust the monitor’s controls until the displayed image is satisfactory.

Getting Started With Your System 11

Installing the Bezel

Install the bezel (optional).

Complete the 0perating System Setup

If you purchased a preinstalled operating system, see the operating system documentation that ships with your system. To install an operating system for the first time, see the before installing hardware or software not purchased with the system.
