1.3 Features

Processors

In the BX630 S2 dual-socket server blade, one (basic configuration) or two AMD Opteron quad-core processors of the 23xx DP and 83xx MP series ensure extremely high data throughput and system performance.

All processors have a 2-MB second-level cache (SLC).

I It is not possible to use CPUs with different clock rates or cache capacity

in a server blade. In the BX630 S2 quad-socket server blade, only processors of the

Opteron 83xx MP series are allowed.

For upgrading processors see the Options Guide; for exchanging processors see the Service Supplement.

Memory

The BX630 S2 dual-socket server blade has eight memory slots. Each processor is assigned four memory slots. Two memory slots make up one memory bank. The memory slots must be fitted by bank, i.e. with pairs of

memory modules. The server blade supports memory modules of the type DDR2 667 with 512 MB, 1 GB, 2 GB or 4 GB capacity, so the maximum configuration is 32 GB (64 GB in a quad-socket server blade). ECC with memory scrubbing and ChipKill™ are supported. Only memory modules of the same capacity can be installed in the same memory bank.

How to install memory modules is described in the Options Guide.

LAN availability

The BX630 S2 dual-socket server blade has two onboard Ethernet LAN controllers with two 1-Gbit/s Ethernet channels each. The Ethernet LAN connection can be implemented via switch blades or via pass-thru blades on the back of the basic unit. For more information see the operating manual for the basic unit.

I You can only use the two 1-Gbit/s Ethernet channels of the second

onboard LAN controller in connection with the BX600 S3 basic unit and the Gbit Ethernet LAN switch blade (SB9f) 12 x 1 Gbit.

8 Operating Manual BX630 S2

Preface Features

Graphics controller

The PRIMERGY BX630 S2 scalable server blade has an onboard graphics controller (Matrox MGA-200) which is integrated in the iRMC controller. You can connect a monitor via the VGA interface (via breakout cable) on the front of the server blade or via the KVM blade on the back of the basic unit.

Optional Fibre Channel or Ethernet I/O module (daughter card)

You can fit the BX630 S2 dual-socket server blade with an I/O daughter card to connect to a SAN or for additional Ethernet connections. The BX630 S2 quadsocket server blade allows two I/O daughter cards to be installed.

To be able to use the additional I/O functionality, at least one FC pass-thru blade or switch blade, or Ethernet pass-thru blade or switch blade must be installed in slot NET3 of the basic unit.

The following I/O daughter cards are available: – 4-Gbit/s Fibre Channel I/O module (PCIe), allows transfer rates of 1, 2 or 4

Gbit/s and supports multiple Fibre Channel storage subsystems with the

corresponding versions.

I You can operate the 4-Gbit/s Fibre Channel I/O module only with a

BX600 S3 basic unit and only in combination with a Brocade SW4016 D4 Fibre Channel switch blade or with a 4 Gbit FC pass-thru blade. For more information see the operating manual for the BX600 S3 basic unit.

– Gigabit Ethernet I/O module (PCIe), also supports TOE (TCP/IP offload

engine) and iSCSI – 10-Gbit Ethernet I/O module (PCIe)

I The 10-Gbit Ethernet I/O module (PCIe) can only be used in combi-

nation with a 10-Gbit switch blade 10/2. For more information see the operating manual for the basic unit.

I You must not install server blades with different I/O modules in the same

BX600 S2 or BX600 S3 basic unit.

How to install I/O modules later is described in the Options Guide.

BX630 S2 Operating Manual 9

Features Preface

High availability and reliability

When memory data is 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 event of an error and automatically "hides" the defective system components.

The PDA (Prefailure Detection and Analyzing) technology from Fujitsu Technology Solutions analyzes and monitors all components that are important for system reliability.

The onboard SAS RAID controller supports RAID levels 0 and 1 by default, thus increasing the system's availability. If you are using SATA-II hard disk drives, you can implement RAID levels 0 and 1 using Promise 20319 to increase the system's availability.

Server management

Server management is implemented using the supplied ServerView software and PDA technology. PDA reports the threat of a system error or overloading to the system administrator in good time, so that preventive measures can be taken.

ServerView allows the management of all PRIMERGY servers in the network via a central console. ServerView supports the following functions:

● Monitoring of the ambient and CPU temperatures

● Watchdog timer for Automatic Server Reconfiguration and Restart (ASR&R)

if memory modules or processors fail

● Power monitoring

● End-of-life monitoring of the fans with prefailure notification

● Watchdog timer for monitoring the operating system and applications with

ASR&R The supplied deployment software simplifies and speeds up the installation of

multiple servers. For further information see the relevant documentation. For further information on the ServerView server management software see the

relevant documentation.
