HP RP3440, RP3410 User Manual

1 Overview

The HP 9000 rp3410 server is a 1P/1C, 1P/2C, rackor pedestal-mount server. Similarly, the HP 9000 rp3440 server is a 1P/1C, 1P/2C, 2P/2C, or 2P/4C rackor pedestal-mount server. Both of these servers are based on the PA-RISC processor family architecture.

The server accommodates up to 12 DIMMs and internal peripherals including disks and DVD. Its high-availability features include hot-swappable power supplies and hot-pluggable disk drives.

The supported operating system is HP-UX 11i v1 (and newer HP-UX versions that support PA-RISC systems).

standard 184 pins 2.5V

DDR266, CL2, registered, ECC

Onlyonesupportedconfigurationfor4GBDIMMs;2quads(8DIMMs);andnootherDIMMs can be installed.

DIMMs loaded by quads enable interleaved mode and chip spare.

Memoryisloadedacrossbothmemorybusses(twoDIMMsoneachbus)toensuremaximum bandwidth and performance.

133 MHz memory bus frequency, 266 MTransfers/s data, 8.5 GB/s peak data bandwidth.

Total memory bandwidth is 8.5 GB/s, split across two 4.25 GB/s memory buses.

Open page memory latency is 80 nanoseconds.

PCI Riser

Two(HP9000rp3410server)orfour(HP9000rp3440server)independentPCI-X133MHz64-bit 3.3V 15W slots. No 5V card and hot-pluggable support.

Internal Core I/O

The following is supported on the HP 9000 rp3410 and rp3440 servers:

Dual-channel SCSI U160 interface, two internal 68-pin connectors, one 68-pin external connector.

SCSI backplane configured either as two channels with 2+1 drives. A SAF-TE accessory (currently not available) is required to configure the SCSI backplane as one channel with three drives.

Three internal SCSI drive connectors are of the 80-pin type and provide drive electrical hot-pluggable capability.

SCSI backplane is designed to support a SCSI management piggy board accessory that provides a SCSI management SAF-TE chip and shunts the backplane's channels A and B to provide three disks on channel A and leave only the external connector on channel B.

One internal IDE connector for a slim-line optical device (CD and DVD).

No floppy connector.

External Core I/O

The following is supported on the HP 9000 rp3410 and rp3440 servers:

One SCSI U160 68-pin connector.

One 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet LAN connectors for copper cable.

Four USB 2.0 ports.

Power Supply Unit

The following is supported on the HP 9000 rp3410 and rp3440 servers:

Detailed Server Description

21

650W output power.

The power supply is split in a front end block (the actual power supply case) that converts the line voltage into high DC voltage and back end voltage regulation modules (on the motherboard) that step down the front end DC voltage to the required voltages.

Redundant and hot-pluggable power supplies (front end block only).

System Board Manageability

The following is supported on the HP 9000 rp3410 and rp3440 servers:

Baseboard Management Controller (BMC).

The firmware supports the HP-UX 11i version 1 (and higher HP-UX versions that support PA-RISC systems) operating system through the HP 9000 processor family standards and extensions, and has no operating system-specific functionality included. The operating system is presented with the same interface to the system firmware, and all the features are available to the operating system.

One end of the FSB is terminated with an I/O ASIC. The other end of the bus is terminated with a CSR. An additional CSR can be loaded in the middle. For the system to function properly, the processor farthest away from the I/O ASIC must be loaded at all times to electrically terminate the FSB.

Each processor module plugs directly into and is powered by its own 12V to 1.2V power-pod. Other power for the system board comes from multiple on-board DC/DC converters. Each processormoduleisattachedtotheboardthroughaZIFsocketandtheentireCSRsecureddown by a heatsink bolster plate.

Processor Bus

The processor bus (Front Side Bus [FSB]) in this product runs at 200 MHz. Data on the FSB are transferred at a double data rate, which enables a peak FSB bandwidth of 6.4 Gb/sec.

ZX1 I/O and Memory Controller

HP 9000 rp3410 and rp3440 servers support the following features of the ZX1 I/O and memory controller chip:

3.3 GB/s peak IO bandwidth

Provides eight communication paths

Peak memory bandwidth of 8.5 GBs

Two memory cells, 144 data bits each

Memory

The memory subsystem provides two memory cells, each of which is 144 data bits wide. Each cell has six DIMM slots, which means a total of 12 DIMM slots are available. The memory bus clock speed is 133 MHz, and the data transfer rate is 266M transfers/second as data is clocked on both edges of the clock. The peak data bandwidth for this memory subsystem design is 8.5 GB/s. DIMMs must be loaded in quads with qualified modules, with the exception of 256 MB DIMMs which is loaded in pairs. Memory is protected by data error correction code (ECC), and the hardware implementation supports the chip-spare feature.

The minimum amount of memory that you can install is 512 MB (2x256 MB modules in a HP 9000 rp3410 model A7136A server), and 1 GB (4x256 MB modules in other HP 9000 rp34x0 servers). The maximum amount of memory that you can install is limited to 24 GB (12 x 2 GB modules) or 32 GB (8 x 4 GB modules) in a HP 9000 rp3440 server.

This design does not support any non industry-standard DDR DIMMs. Only qualified DIMMs are supported.

Figure 1-6 shows the memory block diagram.

Memory data is protected by ECC. Eight ECC bits per DIMM protect 64 bits of data. The use of ECC enables correction of single-bit errors, and detection of multi-bit errors. Only DIMMs with ECC are qualified or supported.

Chip Spare Functionality

Chip spare enables an entire DDR SDRAM chip on a DIMM to be bypassed in the event that a multi-bit error is detected on the DDR SDRAM. In order to use the chip spare functionality on the server, only DIMMs built with ×4 DDR SDRAM parts are used, and these DIMMs must be loaded in quads.

The memory subsystem design supports the I/O ASIC chip’s spare functionality. Chip spare enablesanentireSDRAMchiponaDIMMtobebypassedorreplacedintheeventthatamulti-bit error is detected on that SDRAM. In order to use the chip spare functionality, only DIMMs built withx4SDRAMpartsareused,andtheseDIMMsmustbeloadedinquads(2DIMMspermemory cell,loadedinthesamelocationineachmemorycell).EachDIMMwithinaquadmustbeidentical to all the other DIMMs in the quad.

UsingtheDIMMloadingorderfigurefromabove,chipspareisachievediffouridenticalDIMMs are loaded in the slots labeled “1st” and “2nd.” If more DIMMs are added, they must be loaded in quads in order to maintain the chip spare functionality. If more DIMMs are added to the examplecase,fouridenticalDIMMs(identicaltoeachother,butcanbedifferentfromtheoriginal quad that was loaded) must be loaded in the slots labeled “3rd” and “4th.”

Maximum memory capability of the HP 9000 rp3440 server is 24 GB or 32 GB. If 4 GB DIMMs are used, install eight DIMMs in the first eight slots. The remaining slots (9-12) must remain empty when 4 GB DIMMs are used.

Serial Presence Detect

Each DIMM contains an I2C EEPROM whose content describes the module’s characteristics: speed,technology,revision,vendor,andsoon.Thisfeatureiscalledserialpresencedetect(SPD). Firmware typically uses this information to detect unmatched pairs of DIMMs, and configure certain memory subsystem parameters. The SPD information for DIMMs loaded in the system are also accessible to the BMC through the I2C bus.

I/O Bus Interface

The I/O bus interface has these features:

Provides industry standard PCI 33 MHz and 66 MHz, PCI-X 66 MHz to 133 MHz, 32 or 64 data bit support.

Uses 3.3V PCI only, and it does not support 5V PCI.

Optimizes for DMA performance.

Supports 3.3V or universal-keyed PCI cards. 5V-keyed PCI cards are not supported.
