Intel server boards contain a number of high-density VLSI and power delivery components that need adequate
airflow for cooling. Intel's own chassis are designed and tested to meet the intended thermal requirements of these
components when the fully integrated system is used together. It is the responsibility of the system integrator that
chooses not to use Intel developed server building blocks to consult vendor datasheets and operating parameters to
determine the amount of airflow required for their specific application and environmental conditions. Intel Corporation
can not be held responsible if components fail or the server board does not operate correctly when used outside any
of their published operating or non-operating limits.

Warnings
重要安全指导
Heed safety instructions: Before working with your server product, whether you are
using this guide or any other resource as a reference, pay close attention to the safety
instructions. You must adhere to the assembly instructions in this guide to ensure and
maintain compliance with existing product certifications and approvals. Use only the
described, regulated components specified in this guide. Use of other products /
components will void the UL listing and other regulatory approvals of the product and
will most likely result in noncompliance with product regulations in the region(s) in which
the product is sold.
System power on/off: The power button DOES NOT turn off the system AC power. To
remove power from system, you must unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet.
Make sure the AC power cord is unplugged before you open the chassis, add, or remove
any components.
Hazardous conditions, devices and cables: Hazardous electrical conditions may be
present on power, telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the server and
disconnect the power cord, telecommunications systems, networks, and modems attached
to the server before opening it. Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage can
result.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection: ESD can damage drives, boards,
and other parts. We recommend that you perform all procedures in this chapter only at an
ESD workstation. If one is not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an
antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis ground any unpainted metal surface on your
server when handling parts.
ESD and handling boards: Always handle boards carefully. They can be extremely
sensitive to ESD. Hold boards only by their edges. After removing a board from its
protective wrapper or from the server, place the board component side up on a grounded,
static free surface. Use a conductive foam pad if available but not the board wrapper. Do
not slide board over any surface.

Installing or removing jumpers: A jumper is a small plastic encased conductor that slips
over two jumper pins. Some jumpers have a small tab on top that you can grip with your
fingertips or with a pair of fine needle nosed pliers. If your jumpers do not have such a tab,
take care when using needle nosed pliers to remove or install a jumper; grip the narrow
sides of the jumper with the pliers, never the wide sides. Gripping the wide sides can
damage the contacts inside the jumper, causing intermittent problems with the function
controlled by that jumper. Take care to grip with, but not squeeze, the pliers or other tool
you use to remove a jumper, or you may bend or break the pins on the board.

Intel® Server System S7000FC4UR Product Guide13
Page 32
Power Subsystem
The power subsystem consists of:
•Power supply modules (see below)
•Power distribution board (see “Power Distribution Board” on page 35)
1+1 power supply redundancy or operation with a single power supply is supported under
all configurations at 220 VAC. At 100 or 115 VAC, 1+1 power supply redundancy or
operation with only one power supply is supported only if the power supply DC limits are
not exceeded.
If your desired configuration exceeds the power supply limits, two power supplies are
required. The two power supplies will operate in current-sharing mode to deliver the
additional power needed for your configuration. The two power supplies must be sourced
from separate AC circuits so they do not exceed maximum AC inlet current. Exceeding
the maximum AC inlet current may cause a circuit breaker to trip.
In a redundant configuration, the system supports one fault at a time, either one fan fault
or one power supply fault, and it supports hot-swapping one component at a time.
Power Supply Modules
The output rating of each power supply is 1570 watts when operated between 180 VAC
and 264 VAC. It is current-sharing with auto-ranging input. The power supply is 7.75
inches wide, 14.5 inches deep, and 1.47 inches high. The power supply modules have
universal AC input with Power Factor Correction (PFC) Distributed Power Supplies
(DPS). The AC input receptacle is an IEC-320 C14.
The power supply has DC outputs of 12 V and 3.3 VSB. The 12 V main power is
distributed through the server and is converted locally at the point-of-load using
embedded VRM converters. The power supply is capable of power-safe monitoring.
The maximum AC input current is:
•100 - 127 VAC: 12 A
•200 - 240 VAC: 7 A
The maximum input current listed is the maximum AC inlet current that can be drawn by
the power supply / supplies. If two power supplies are installed, then this value is the
maximum combined input current for both AC inlets.
In an N+1 configuration, the 12 VDC outputs have active (forced) current-sharing. The
two externally enabled outputs have these maximum ratings:
•+12 VDC: 121 A
•+3.3 VDCSB: 5 A
14Intel® Server System S7000FC4UR Product Guide
Page 33
Each power supply module requires one power cord to supply AC power to the system.
One power supply ships with the standard system. When two power supply modules and
two power cords are installed, the system supports (1+1) power cord redundancy. This
allows the system to be powered by two separate AC sources. In the 1+1 configuration,
the system continues to operate without interruption if one of the AC power sources fails.
Each power supply module has three status LEDs next to the input connector.

The LED is not lit when the power supply is
turned off by powering down the system.

Note: The cooling system is non-redundant if only one power supply is installed.
Caution: Power supplies must be hot-swapped within two minutes. This time period applies only to
the time that the power supply is physically removed, not from the time of failure.
Power Supply Consumption

J6F1
Jumper J6F1 is used to set a threshold for power consumption when operating the server
with a single power supply on a low-line 100 / 110 / 115 / 120 / 127 VAC power circuit.
This threshold ensures the power consumption of the server does not exceed the power
that can be supplied by a single AC power circuit. When the system has two power
supplies, a separate AC power circuit is needed for each power supply to guarantee the
AC power circuit capability is not exceeded.
When a server is connected to low-line power, the J6F1 jumper sets these power
consumption thresholds:
•Pins 1-2 covered: Sets the power consumption threshold to 1180 watts
16Intel® Server System S7000FC4UR Product Guide
AF002232
Figure 8. Power Consumption Selection Jumper
Page 35
•Pins 2-3 covered: Sets the power consumption threshold to 1030 watts
Power consumption is based on the power consumed within the system. Power factors for
inefficiency are not included in the above figures.
Servers connected to high-line power (200 / 208 / 220 / 230 / 240 VAC) do not have a
power consumption threshold. Under these conditions, jumper J6F1 should be set to:
The power consumption threshold is most likely to be exceeded when all of the following
conditions are met:
•The server is connected to a low-line power circuit
•The server has a single power supply installed
•The server is fully configured with four processors, 16 x4 GB DIMMs, and all PCI
slots are filled
•The server is running at maximum performance
If the power consumption threshold is crossed, the hardware throttles the processors to
reduce the power consumption to below the set threshold. The processor performance can
be returned to the full performance level by power cycling the server.
When two power supplies are installed, the required power is divided between them. By
using both circuits, the server can draw more power than the threshold limit for a single
power supply.
The hardware reduces the amount of power consumed if one of the power supplies fails.
This ensures the system consumes less power than the threshold from the single operating
power supply. When a failed power supply is replaced, the system is again able to share
the power load and operate at full performance.
If the J6F1 jumper is set incorrectly, the following may occur:
•If the jumper is covering pins 1-2 on a 100 / 110 VAC circuit, the server is allowed
to consume up to 1180 watts. This setting may cause a circuit breaker to trip.
•If the jumper is covering pins 2-3 on a 115 / 120 / 127 VAC circuit, the server power
consumption threshold is set to 1030 watts. The lower power threshold may be
exceeded, limiting system performance.
Intel® Server System S7000FC4UR Product Guide17

Cooling Subsystem
Caution: The chassis top cover must be installed for proper system cooling. Cooling components
must be hot-swapped within two minutes. This time period applies only to the time that the
cooling component is physically removed, not from the time of failure.
The cooling subsystem consists of hot-swap, redundant (7+1) fans. In a redundant
configuration, the system supports one fault at a time, either one fan fault or one power
supply fault, and it supports hot-swapping one component at a time. If a cooling
component fails, the system cooling is maintained and the system continues to operate
while the component is hot-swapped.
Each front fan assembly has one status LED. The LED is off when both fans are operating
normally. The LED illuminate amber if one or both of the fans fails. Failed front fans can
be hot-swapped from the front of the system.
Each rear fan has one status LED. The LED is off when the fan is operating normally and
illuminates amber if the fan fails. Failed rear fans can be replaced from the top of the
system when the top cover is removed.

For proper processor cooling, the processor duct must always be in place. Systems that are
configured with fewer than four processors should have processor blanks installed to
maintain proper cooling.
Hot-swap PCI Slots
The two hot-swap PCI slots have power and attention LEDs. The attention button is used
to invoke a hot-swap sequence to remove or add an adapter without using the software
interface. The LEDs are identified by the green arrow on the PCI divider label.

Using the BIOS Setup Utility
The BIOS Setup Utility is a text-based utility that allows you to configure the system and
view and change device settings and view environmental information for the system. The
interface consists of several screens, called pages, each of which contains information or
links to other pages. The first page in Setup displays links for general categories. These
links lead to pages containing specific configuration settings.
The BIOS Setup Utility is functional through console redirection over various terminal
emulation standards. This may limit some functionality due to compatibility. For example,
colors, some keys or key sequences, and mouse support may be limited.
To enter the BIOS Setup Utility press <F2> when prompted during POST to access the
Systems Options Menu.
See “Additional Information and Software” for a link to the Technical Product
Specification where you will find details about specific BIOS setup screens.
Navigating the BIOS Setup Utility
The BIOS Setup Utility screens are divided into functional areas:
•The title bar is at the top of the screen and displays the page title. It might also
display navigational information.
•The Setup Item List is a set of controllable and informational items. Each item in the
list is in the left column of the screen. An item may also open a new window with
additional options.
•The Item Specific Help area is on the right side of the screen and contains help text
for the highlighted Setup Item. Help information might include the definition and
use of an item, allowable values, and effects of the options.

The rolling BIOS feature provides a fault-tolerant BIOS update mechanism. The BIOS
relies on specialized hardware and additional flash space to support the rolling BIOS
feature.

store a separate BIOS image. The flash part that holds the BIOS image used to boot the
system is called the Primary Flash Bank. The second flash part holds the alternate or
backup BIOS image and is called the Secondary Flash Bank. All BIOS flash updates are
made to the Secondary Flash Bank.
The BIOS flash update process works like this:
1. Boot the system.
2. Use the EFI Flash or the Intel
3. Reset the system.
4. The rolling BIOS automatically:
—Boots the system with the old BIOS image.
—Validates the new BIOS image.
5. If the new image flashed successfully, then the BIOS automatically resets the
®
Server System S7000FC4UR supports two physical 4 MB flash parts that each

system and boots with the new BIOS image.
6. If the new BIOS image fails to boot, then the rolling BIOS boots with the old,
known-good BIOS image.
Booting from Backup Image
There are several possible scenarios in which a manual rollback to the previous BIOS
image might be necessary:
•The user successfully updated the BIOS but later learns that the new BIOS image
does not provide the desired functionality.
•The user successfully updated the BIOS but later changes the system configuration
in a way that causes the new BIOS to stop working.
•A power failure occurs during the flash update. The user reset the system and was
not able to boot to the new BIOS.
To boot from the backup image:
1. Power down the system, and remove the system cover.
2. Move the Rolling BIOS jumper to cover pins 1-2.
3. Plug in and boot the system. The system boots from the BIOS image stored on the
Secondary Flash Bank.
4. If the BIOS image in the other bank is corrupted or non-functional, perform a BIOS
update to overwrite this bad BIOS image.
Intel® Server System S7000FC4UR Product Guide45
Page 64
5. Power down the system and move the Rolling BIOS jumper back to cover pins
2 - 3.
6. Replace the system cover, plug in the system, and boot it. The system boots from
the newly flashed image and a known-good backup image remains in the other
bank.
Console Redirection
The BIOS supports keyboard and video redirection through a serial link (COM port).
When console redirection is enabled, local (host server) keyboard input and video output
are passed to both the local keyboard and video connections and to the remote console
through the serial link. Keyboard inputs from both sources are valid and video is displayed
to both outputs.
With console redirection, the system can be operated without a host keyboard or monitor
and run entirely from a remote console. Setup and any other text-based utilities can be
accessed through console redirection.
Serial Configuration Settings
When redirecting through a modem instead of through a null modem cable, the modem
needs to be configured with:
•Auto-answer (Example: ATS0=2, to answer after two rings).
•Modem reaction to DTR set to return to command state (Example: AT&D1). Failure
to provide this results in the modem dropping the link when the server reboots, with
AT&D0, or becoming unresponsive to server baud rate changes, with AT&D2).
•Handshaking must be set to RTS/CTS + CD (carrier detect) for optimum
performance.
Handshaking must be set to Xon/Xoff + CD if the emergency management port
(EMP) shares the COM port with serial redirection. With this form of handshaking,
the server is prevented from sending video updates to a modem that is not connected
to a remote modem. If this is not selected, video update data being sent to the
modem inhibits many modems from answering an incoming call. An EMP option
utilizing CD should not be used if a modem is not used and the CD is not connected.
•Both the EMP and console redirection require N, 8, 1 mode (no parity, 8-bit data, 1
stop bit).
The BIOS does not require that the splash logo be turned off for console redirection to
function. The BIOS supports multiple consoles, some of which are in graphics mode and
some in text mode. The graphics consoles can display the logo while the text consoles
receive the redirected text.
Console redirection ends at the beginning of the Legacy OS boot (INT 19h).
46Intel® Server System S7000FC4UR Product Guide
Page 65
Keystroke Mappings
During console redirection, the remote terminal, which may be a dumb terminal or a
system with a modem running a communication program, sends keystrokes to the local
server. The server passes video back over this same link. The keystroke mappings follow

Limitations
BIOS console redirection terminates after an EFI-aware operating system calls EFI Boot
Service ExitBootServices. The operating system is responsible for continuing the Console
Redirection after that point. BIOS console redirection is a text console. Graphical data,
such as a logo, are not redirected.
Interface to Server Management
If the BIOS determines that console redirection is enabled, it passes the baud rate through
the Intelligent Platform Management Bus (IPMB) to the appropriate management
controller.
Sample Setup for Console Redirection
Below is an example of how to configure the console/host and server for console
redirection. In this example, the console is running under Windows*. The console and
server are directly connected through the serial ports using a serial null modem cable.
Server Configuration
1. Power on the server.
2. When prompted, press <F2> to enter the System Options Menu.
3. Select the BIOS Setup menu.
4. Use the arrow keys move to the Server Management menu.
5. At the Server Management menu, select Console Redirection.
6. Select “COM1 Console Redirection”.
7. Set Console Redirect to “Enabled”.
8. Set the Bit Rate to “115.2K”.
9. Set the Flow Control to “RTS/CTS”.
10. Set the Terminal Type to “PC-ANSI”.
11. Press <F10>.
12. At the prompt to save changes and exit BIOS Setup, select “Yes” and press
13. Power down the server and configure the console.
4. At the Connection Description window, enter “guest” for the name and click “OK”.
<Enter>. The server reboots and console redirection is enabled.
48Intel® Server System S7000FC4UR Product Guide
Page 67
5. At the Connect To window, select the COM port of the console where the null
modem is connected. In this example, it is COM1.
6. At the COM1 Properties window, select “115200” in the Bits per second (Baud
rate) box to match that which was configured on the server.
7. Select “Hardware” for the Flow Control to match that which was configured in
BIOS Setup (CTS/RTS is the hardware flow control).
8. Leave the default settings for the other boxes. Click “OK” to accept the settings and
enter the Hyperterminal screen.
9. Power on the server. The console displays the redirection after the video
synchronizes on the server.
Platform Confidence Test
The Platform Confidence Test (PCT) diagnostic utility is included on the Intel® Server
System S7000FC4UR Server Deployment Toolkit CD. It probes for the hardware at the
start of each test and reports the identified components. In this way, the PCT indirectly
identifies many assembly and cabling errors (broken or improperly seated cables) when
installed components are not reported. The test displays results for field replaceable units,
such as the processor modules, the server board, drives, and memory.
Three Platform Confidence Tests (PCT) are available. The duration of each test depends
on the number of processors and the amount of memory installed. On completion of each
test and after the test results are displayed, the program returns to the main menu.
Quick Test
The quick test checks the core components of the system to ensure they are functioning
properly. The test modules that are run during the quick test include:
•Cache
•MCH
•Memory
•Processor
•Real-time clock
Comprehensive Test
The comprehensive test performs a thorough test of the system components. The test
modules that are run during the comprehensive test include:
•Baseboard management controller
•Cache
•Graphics
•Hard drives
Intel® Server System S7000FC4UR Product Guide49
Page 68
•ICHx
•Keyboard
•MCH
•Memory
•NIC
•PCI bus
•Processor
•SAS
•Super I/O
•Universal serial bus
The processor floating point unit (FPU) is tested and more extensive tests are run on the
memory and cache. Extensive tests are run on the onboard peripheral controllers,
integrated components, and the chipset.
Comprehensive Test with Continuous Looping
This is identical to the comprehensive test, but it runs continuously until the operator
interrupts the test cycle by pressing the <F10> key. The system transfers to the test menu
screen with the pass / fail status displayed, along with the number of test loops completed.
Running the Platform Confidence Test
1. Insert the Intel® Server System S7000FC4UR Server Deployment Toolkit CD into a
Windows*-based system.
2. Allow the autorun feature to launch the graphical user interface. If autorun does not
launch the GUI, launch it manually by double-clicking the CD-ROM drive.

5User-Serviceable Components
Note: This chapter provides instructions for adding and replacing hot-swappable and user-
serviceable system components and memory DIMMs. A service technician is not required
to perform the procedures described in this chapter.
Before You Begin
Before working with your server product, pay close attention to the “Safety Information”
on page iii.
Use the equipment log to record the model and serial numbers of the server and all
installed options.
Tools and Supplies Needed
•Phillips* (cross head) screwdriver, #2 bit
•Flat-head screwdriver
•Antistatic wrist strap and conductive foam pad (recommended)
System References
Unless otherwise noted, all references to left, right, front, top, and bottom assume the
reader is facing the front of the chassis as it would be positioned for normal operation.
Removing and Installing the Chassis Cover
Warni n g: Make sure the rack is anchored securely so it will not tilt forward when the server is
extended. A crush hazard exists if the rack tilts forward. This could cause serious injury.
Cautions:
•For proper cooling and airflow, do not operate the server with the cover removed.
Do not leave the chassis cover open or a system fan removed any longer than
necessary; system cooling could be reduced.
•The server comes with a removable top cover that allows the PCI cards, memory
boards, and the system fans to be hot-swapped, and other system components to be
serviced. Except for components described in this chapter, all servicing must be
done by a qualified service technician.
57
Page 76
•Provide electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection by wearing an antistatic wrist
strap attached to chassis ground of the system-any unpainted metal surface-when
handling components.
Removing the Top Cover
Before removing the top cover, observe these safety guidelines:
1. If you are not replacing a hot-swap component:
—Turn off and disconnect all peripheral devices connected to the server.
—Power down the system by pressing and holding the power button on the front
of the chassis for several seconds.
—After the server shuts down, unplug both AC power cords to remove standby
power from the system.
2. If the system is mounted in a rack, slide it out far enough to expose the entire top
cover.
3. Unscrew the two captive screws on the faceplate. See letter “A” in the figure below.
4. Slide the top cover toward the rear until it stops, then lift the cover to remove it. See
letter “B” in the figure.

Figure 23. Installing the Chassis Cover
Hot-swapping a Front System Fan
Two cooling fan assemblies are located at the front of the chassis. Each assembly contains
two fans. You cannot replace the individual fans within the assembly, but you can replace
each fan assembly. You can replace a failed cooling fan assembly without turning off the
power to the server only if the remaining fans are fully functional. Each fan assembly uses
an amber LED to indicate a failed fan condition. If the amber LED is on, the fan assembly
needs to be replaced. The LED remains off during normal operation.
Cautions:
•System cooling is reduced during the fan replacement process. Do not leave a
system fan removed for longer than two minutes.
•Do not touch the fan blades while they are turning.

Memory Population Rules
•Memory must be populated beginning with memory board A, slot 1. This is DIMM
Slot A1). Memory board A is at the right side of the system.
•To increase memory capacity, additional memory can be added to memory board A
beginning with slot A2, and followed by slot A3 and then slot A4.
•To ensure proper system thermal performance, all DIMM slots must be populated
with either a DIMM or a DIMM blank.
If only memory boards A and B are installed:
•Identically numbered FBDIMM sockets for both memory boards must be populated
with FBDIMMs identical in terms of timing, technology, and size. For example,
DIMM A1 and B1 must be identical.
•FBDIMMs installed in different socket positions (numbers) on a riser board do not
Intel® Server System S7000FC4UR Product Guide79
need to be identical for dual-channel operation. For example, DIMMs A1 and B1
can be different from DIMMs A2 and B2.
•Additional memory can be added by installing identical pairs of DIMMs in the
lowest numbered available slots.

If memory boards A, B, C and D are installed:
•Identically numbered FBDIMM sockets for both memory boards in a branch must
be populated with FBDIMMs identical in terms of timing, technology, and size. For
example, DIMM A1 and B1 must be identical, and DIMM C1 and D1 must be
identical.
•FBDIMMs installed in different socket positions (numbers) on a memory board do
not need to be identical. For example, DIMMs A1 and B1 can be different from
DIMMs A2 and B2.
•If memory mirroring is not required, FBDIMMs installed in the same socket
positions (numbers) across the two branches do not need to be identical. For
example, DIMMs A1 and B1 can be different from DIMMs C1 and D1.
•If memory mirroring is required, FBDIMMs installed in the same socket positions
(numbers) across the two branches must be identical. For example, DIMMs A1 and
B1 must be identical to DIMMs C1 and D1.
•Additional memory can be added by installing identical pairs of DIMMs in the
lowest numbered available slots.

Cautions:
•Use extreme care when installing a DIMM. Applying too much pressure can damage
the connector. DIMMs are keyed and can be inserted in only one way.
•Hold DIMMs only by the edges. Do not touch the components or gold edge
connectors.
•Install DIMMs with gold-plated edge connectors only.
•The maximum DIMM height is 4.445 cm (1.75 inches). Do not install DIMMs that
exceed this height.
