ACPI

TM700 User Guide - System Overview

The motherboard uses one Intel® 82547EI Gigabit Ethernet Controller and supports 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T network systems.

The 82547EI controller supports the following features:

■ Full-duplex Gigabit throughput and higher platform performance with Communi-

cation Streaming Architecture (CSA)

■ System health monitoring and authenticated remote power control with ASF 2.0

The motherboard supports the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) as defined by the ACPI 2.0 specifications. An ACPI aware operating system can put the system into a state where the hard drives spin down, the system fans stop, and all processing is halted. However, the power supply will still be on and the processors will still be dissipating some power, so the power supply fans will still run.

The system board supports sleep states s0, s1, s4, and s5:

■ s0: Normal running state.

■ s1: Processor sleep state. No context will be lost in this state and the processor

caches will maintain coherency.

■ s4: Hibernate or Save to Disk: The memory and machine state are saved to disk.

Pressing the power button or other wakeup event will restore the system state from the disk and resume normal operation. This assumes that no hardware changes have been made to the system while it was off.

■ s5: Soft off: Only the RTC section of the CSB are running in this state. No context

is saved by the OS or hardware.

Note: The system is off only when the AC power cord is disconnected.

Keyboard and Mouse

The keyboard/mouse controller is PS/2-compatible.

Peripheral Bays

Your Storage server features two 5.25-inch bays that you can use with either a hard disk drive, an optical device such as a CD-ROM, DVD-ROM or COMBO DVD-ROM CDRW, or a tape backup unit. See “Optional Features” on page 1-12.

TM700 User Guide - Setting Up the System

Selecting a Site

The system operates reliably in a typical office environment. Choose a site that is:

■ Near grounded, three-pronged power outlets.

Note: For the United States and Canada, this means a

NEMA 6-15R outlet for 200-240 VAC. The system cannot be used on a NEMA 5-15R outlet for 100-120 VAC. For other international sites, this means three-pronged power outlets applicable for the electrical code of the region.

Be sure the power service connection is through a properly grounded outlet.

WARNING

CAUTION

When two power supplies are installed in the system the power plug from each of the power supplies must be plugged into the same common ground power outlets.

■ Clean, dust-free, and well ventilated. Every side ventilating openings kept free of

obstructions. Away from sources of heat, vibration or physical shock.

■ Isolated from strong electromagnetic fields and electrical noise produced by

electrical devices (such as air conditioners, large fans, large electric motors, radio and TV transmitters, and high-frequency security devices)

■ Spacious enough to provide at least ten inches (25 centimeters) in front of the

system, five inches (13 centimeters) behind the system and three inches (eight centimeters) on each side of the system for proper cooling, airflow, and cable clearance.

■ Easily accessible for system maintenance and installation of system upgrades.

Caution

2 - 5

TM700 User Guide - Setting Up the System

Connecting the Power Cord

Plug the female end of the AC power cord into the input receptacle on the rear of the power supply cage. Plug the male end of the power cord into NEMA 5-15R outlet for 100-120 VAC or NEMA 6-15R outlet for 200-240 VAC.

If the power cord(s) supplied with the system is not compatible with the AC wall outlet in your region, obtain a suitable power cord that meets the following criteria.

■ The power cord must be rated for the available AC voltage and have a current

rating that is at least 125% of the current rating of the system.

■ The power cord connector that plugs into the wall outlet must be terminated in a

grounding-type male plug designed for use in your region. It must have certification marks showing certification by an agency acceptable in your region.

■ The power cord connector that plugs into the system must be an IEC- type CEE-22

female connector.

■ The power cord must be less than 1.8 meters (6.0 feet) long.

Warning

Your system shipped with a power cord for each power supply.

Do not attempt to modify or use the supplied AC power cord if it is not the exact type required.

TM700 User Guide - Setting Up the System

Using the System

The following subsections describe how to use this server system properly and safely, including an explanation of the server system power on/off sequences, what the POST program checks in the server, and how to perform a forced power shutdown.

When using the server system the following precautions should be observed.

■ Make sure you power off the server before connecting or disconnecting cables

between the server and peripheral devices. Connecting or disconnecting the cables while the server is powered on may cause malfunction or failures within the server.

■ Verify that the access lamp on the diskette drive is unlit before turning off the

server or ejecting the floppy disk. Turning off the server or ejecting the floppy disk while the access lamp is lit may damage data being stored on the floppy disk.

■ After turning off the server, wait at least 10 seconds before turning it on again.

Cycling the power immediately may cause malfunction or failures of the server.

■ Before relocating the server, turn off the power and unplug the power cord from

the outlet. Moving the server when it is powered may cause malfunction or failures of the server.

■ Some software includes a command to eject the CD-ROM tray or a media in a

device mounted in the 5.25-inch device bay. Make sure that the front door of the tower-based cabinet is open before running the command. Running this command with the front door closed may cause the CD-ROM tray or the media to hit against the front door, resulting in a possible failure of the CD-ROM.

■ Clean the server regularly. Regular cleaning prevents failures of the server and its

components.

■ Lightning may cause a momentary voltage drop. To prevent this problem, an unin-

terruptible power supply unit is recommended.

■ Only use options qualified for the server. A non-qualified option may be mounted

or connected to the server, but it may fail to operate normally or even cause failures. These types of failures are not covered under warranty.

TM700 User Guide - Setting Up the System

Powering On Your System

- If the power cord is connected to a power control device such as a UPS (Uninterruptive Power Supply), make sure that the power control device is powered.

- Do not turn off the server until characters following the Boot-BIOS logo appears on the screen.

Power on your system as follows.

1. Make sure all external devices, such as a video display, keyboard, and mouse (optional) have been connected, and the power cords are connected.

2. Power on the video display and any other external devices.

Note: If the server power cord(s) is connected to a power

control unit such as an UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) make sure that the power control unit is powered on.

CAUTION:

3. Press the POWER switch on the front of the computer chassis to power on the system. The POWER lamp lights green. If it is not lit, ensure the ac power cord is connected to a functional ac power source.

After a few seconds your system begins the internal Power-On Self Tests (POST). POST automatically checks the system board, CPU(s), memory, keyboard, mouse, and most installed peripheral devices. POST also displays the start messages of the BIOS setup utility during execution.

The POST check results should be checked in the following cases:

■ When the server is being used for the first time.

■ When the server appears to fail.

■ When the server beeps many times between power-on and OS start-up.

■ When an error message appears on the screen.

Note: For error messages that appear on the display unit,

refer to subsection POST Error Codes and Messages in Chapter 5 of this Guide.

2 - 8

TM700 User Guide - Setting Up the System

Always allow POST to complete before powering down your system.

If you have problems powering on your system, refer to Problem Solving in Chapter 5 of this User’s Guide.

After you have successfully powered on your system, insert the EXPRESSBUILDER CD-ROM into the CD-ROM device, reboot the system and follow the screen prompts to run EXPRESSBUILDER.

Powering Off the Server System

When server system power is on, pressing the power on/off switch on the front panel of the server turns the power off.

CAUTION

To turn the server system power off:

1. Shutdown the operating system (OS).

2. If necessary, press the POWER switch on the front of the computer chassis again

to power off the system. The POWER lamp lights off.

Installing an Adapter Card

1. Push the two tabs (A) and remove the metallic bracket that holds the expansion

slots covers and the expansion cards in place. Choose the slot that you want to install your adapter card into and remove its cover from the chassis. Set both items aside. Save the expansion slot cover in a safe place in case you ever need to replace it.

2. Remove your adapter card from its protective packaging. Do not touch the

metal “fingers” on the edge of the card.

3. Check the adapter card's documentation for any switches or jumpers that may

need to be set, and set them now.

4. Carefully, but firmly, press the adapter card into the connector.

5. After installation, replace the metallic bracket that you removed in step one.

Removing an Adapter Card from Your System
