1 Introduction
The PRIMERGY B120 server is an Intel-based server for small and medium-sized networks and can
be used as a tower (floorstand) or rack servers. Conversion to the respective other version is
possible with an optional conversion kit.
The PRIMERGY B120 Server offers a high level of failure protection and availability through highly
developed hardware and software components. Hardware components include hot-replace carriers,
the ServerView server management , PDA (Prefailure Detection and Analyzing) and ASR&R
(Automatic Server Reconfiguration and Restart).
Security functions in the BIOS Setup and on the system board protect the data on the server against
manipulation. As a floorstand server, the lockable drive cover, and as rack server the lockable rack
offers additional security.
This Operating Manual tells you how to put your server into operation, how to operate it in daily use
and how to expand or upgrade your server.
Work steps which are identical for the tower and rack version are only described for the
tower version.

1.1 Features
System board
For a description of the features of the system board intergrated in your PRIMERGY B120 server,
please see the Technical Manual of the system board for the hardware and the description of the
BIOS-Setup for the firmware.
Hard disk subsystem
The hard disk subsystem is available in an SCSI hot-replace version, consisting of the SCSI
backplane and up to four SCSI hard disk slide-in modules with an SCA (Single Connector
Attachment) interface. With a disk array controller the PRIMERGY B120 server can be expanded to
a high-availability system.
The SCSI hard disk subsystem features Ultra160 SCSI. Standard controllers and disk array
controller can be used as SCSI controllers. With a disk array controller and a corresponding RAID
configuration (Redundant Arrays of Independent Disks), a defective hard disk drive can be replaced
during operation (hot-replace).
A26361-K646-Z102-1-7619 1
Introduction Features
Power supply
The PRIMERGY B120 server is equipped with a permanently installed power supply.
High level of availability and failure protection
When memory data are accessed, 1-bit errors in the main memory are recognized and automatically
corrected with the ECC (Error Correcting Code) method.
ASR&R (Automatic Server Reconfiguration and Restart) restarts the system in the case of an error
and automatically "hides" the defective system components.
PDA (Prefailure Detection and Analyzing) technology from Fujitsu Siemens Computers analyzes and
monitors all components important for system reliability.
Server management is realized with the software ServerView and PDA technology. It reports the
threat of a system error or overloading so that preventative measures can be taken.
ServerView enables the management of all PRIMERGY servers in a network via a central console. In
the process, ServerView supports the following functions depending on the system board of the
server:
• Remote power-on (Wakeup On LAN)
• Intrusion Detection
• Temperature monitoring of the CPU and the surrounding area.
• Power monitoring
• End-of-Life monitoring of the fans with timely indication before failure
• Watchdog timer for operating system and applications with Automatic Server Reconfiguration
and Restart (ASR&R)
Further information on ServerView is provided in the associated documentation.
ServerStart
You can configure the PRIMERGY server quickly and purposefully with the ServerStart software
provided. User-guided menus are available for installing the server operating systems.
Service and Support
PRIMERGY devices are service-friendly and modular, thus enabling quick and simple maintenance.
The flash EPROM program supplied with the Fujitsu Siemens utilities supports fast BIOS update.
With the optional Remote Test and Diagnosis System RemoteView (chipDISK), long-distance
maintenance and service (remote) can also be performed on the servers of the PRIMERGY series.

3.4.1 Connecting the tower server to the line voltage
The server is equipped with a permanently installed standard power supply.
Two standard designs are available for the power supply. The only difference between them is that
the connection panel is rotated 180°. Since the connection panels are otherwise identical, the
diagrams below show only one of the standard power supplies.
Both designs for the standard power supply can be set for supply voltage ranges 100 V to 125 V or
200 V to 240 V.
Before connecting the server to the line voltage, you must always check that the line
voltage range set on the server corresponds to the local line voltage. The marker arrow on
!
the plug-in unit points to the voltage range set.

8.1 The SCSI hard disk subsystem
The hard disk subsystem is available in an SCSI hot-replace version, consisting of the SCSI
backplane and up to four SCSI hard disk slide-in modules with an SCA (Single Connector
Attachment) interface. With a disk array controller the PRIMERGY B120 server can be expanded to
a high-availability system.
The SCSI hard disk subsystem features Ultra160 SCSI. Standard controllers and disk array
controller can be used as SCSI controllers. With a disk array controller and a corresponding RAID
configuration (Redundant Arrays of Independent Disks), a defective hard disk drive can be replaced
during operation (hot-replace).
When an SCSI hard disk drive is operated in a hot-replace-capable SCSI subsystem on a disk array
controller and is part of a disk array which operates in RAID Level 1 or 5, then it can be replaced in
the case of a defect during operation (hot-replace). To swap a hard disk, you need an SCSI hard
disk drive with the same or higher capacity. You will identify a defective SCSI hard disk drive by a
glowing orange indicator on the hard disk carrier (see "Operation controls"). The reconstruction of
the data (rebuild) on the new hard disk takes place automatically after the swap provided that the
disk array controller has been properly configured. Observe the instructions in the manual of the
disk array controller.
Only if the orange indicator on the hard disk carrier remains bright may the hard disk be
replaced while the system is in operation.
!
So that the storage capacity of the hard disk can be recognized at a glance when the hard disk is
replaced, several prefabricated stickers with the storage capacities are provided with the server.
Each hard disk (slide-in module) should bear a sticker indicating its capacity on the front. Should no
suitable sticker be available, blank stickers for labeling are also provided. The stickers are color
coded for easier identification.
The SCSI IDs of the hard disk slide-in modules are permanently set and are assigned from the
bottom upward in the order 0, 1, 2 (with three slide-in modules) or 0, 1, 2, 3 (with four slide-in
modules).
A26361-K646-Z102-1-7619 43
System components and expansions The SCSI hard disk subsystem
The following applies if SCSI hard disk drives are operated on a disk array controller:
• RAID level 0 and 7
Rebuild is not possible. If a hard disk fails, its data is lost.
• RAID level 1 and 5 without standby hard disk
Rebuild on the new disk is carried out automatically when the old disk is swapped.
• RAID level 1 and 5 with standby hard disk
A standby hard disk is automatically enabled as a replacement for the defective hard disk and
the data of the defective disk is rebuilt on the standby disk.
Ê Read the documentation for the new hard disk drive.
8.1.1 SCSI hard disk drives
The SCSI hard disks which can be ordered for the server are supplied already mounted in the hard
disk carriers. The slide-in modules are equipped with a status and an error indicator. Unequipped
installation bays are covered with a blank insert.
A hard disk in the hard disk carrier may only be replaced by a service technician.

System components and expansions Accessible drives
8.2 Accessible drives
The server accommodates three accessible drives (two 5 ¼-inch drives and one 3 ½-inch drive). As
shipped, two drives are fitted: a 3 ½-inch floppy disk drive and a CD-ROM drive.
When installing or removing drives, the following points must be observed for the configuration
depending on the drive type (IDE or SCSI):
IDE drive
• The drive must be entered in the BIOS Setup (see description of BIOS Setup).
• The proper master-slave setting must be set on the drive:
− If the drive is connected to an IDE channel alone, then the drive must be set as the
master.
− If the drive is connected to an IDE channel together with a second drive, then one drive
must be set as the master and the other as the slave.
• Only drives with the same speed should be connected to an IDE channel.
SCSI drive
• The drive must be assigned a unique SCSI-ID. With narrow SCSI drives, an SCSI-ID from
0 to 6, and with wide SCSI drives also from 8 to 15 can be assigned.
• The drive terminating resistor must be switched on or off in accordance with the following
considerations:
− If the drive is connected in the middle of the SCSI cable, then the drive terminating
resistor must be switched off.
− If the drive is connected at the end of the SCSI cable, then the drive terminating resistor
must be switched on (also see the next point).
− If the drive is connected at the end of the SCSI cable, however the SCSI cable is
equipped with its own terminating resistor, then the drive terminating resistor must be
switched off.
Ê Always read the related documentation before installing or removing a drive.
