Chapter 3. What is included with your server

The TD200x server package includes the server, printed instructions, the ThinkServer Documentation DVD, and software media.
1 Server 2 Power cords, documentation, and software media

Features and technologies

The TD200x server offers the following features and technologies:
v UEFI-compliant server firmware
The server firmware offers several features, including Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) 2.1 compliance, enhanced RAS capabilities, and BIOS compatibility support. UEFI replaces the basic input/output system (BIOS) and defines a standard interface between the operating system, platform firmware, and external devices. UEFI-compliant servers are capable of starting UEFI-compliant operating systems, BIOS-based operating systems, and BIOS-based adapters as well as UEFI-compliant adapters.
Note: The server does not support DOS.
v Integrated Management Module
The integrated management module (IMM) combines service processor functions, video controller, and remote presence function in a single chip. The IMM provides advanced service-processor control, monitoring, and alerting function. If an environmental condition exceeds a threshold or if a system component fails, the IMM lights LEDs to help you diagnose the problem, records the error in the event log, and alerts you to the problem. The IMM also provides a virtual presence capability for remote server management capabilities. The IMM provides remote server management through industry-standard interfaces:
– Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) version 2.0 – Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) version 3 – Common Information Model (CIM) – Web browser
v Remote presence capability and blue-screen capture
The remote presence feature provides the following functions: – Remotely viewing video with graphics resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 at 85 Hz,
regardless of the system state
© Lenovo 2009. Portions © IBM Corp. 2009. 7
– Remotely accessing the server, using the keyboard and mouse from a remote
client
– Mapping the CD or DVD drive, diskette drive, and USB flash drive on a
remote client, and mapping ISO and diskette image files as virtual drives that are available for use by the server
– Uploading a diskette image to the IMM memory and mapping it to the server
as a virtual drive
The blue-screen capture feature captures the video display contents before the IMM restarts the server when the IMM detects an operating-system hang condition. A system administrator can use the blue-screen capture to assist in determining the cause of the hang condition.
v Preboot diagnostics programs
The preboot diagnostics programs are stored on the integrated USB memory. It collects and analyzes system information to aid in diagnosing server problems. The diagnostics programs collect the following information about the server:
– System configuration – Network interfaces and settings – Installed hardware – EasyLED diagnostics status – Service processor status and configuration – Vital product data, firmware, and UEFI (formerly BIOS) configuration – Hard disk drive health – RAID controller configuration – Event logs for service processors The diagnostic programs create a merged log that includes events from all
collected logs. The information is collected into a file that you can send to Lenovo service and support. Additionally, you can view the information locally through a generated text report file. You can also copy the log to a removable media and view the log from a Web browser.
For additional information about preboot diagnostics, see the Hardware Maintenance Manual.
v EasyStartup DVD
The ThinkServer EasyStartup program guides you through the configuration of the hardware, the RAID controller, and the installation of the operating system and device drivers.
v EasyManage DVD
The ThinkServer EasyManage program helps you manage and administer your servers and clients through remote problem notification as well as monitoring and alerting.
v Integrated network support
The server comes with one integrated Broadcom 5709C series Gigabit Ethernet controller, which supports connection to a 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps network. For more information, see “Enabling the Broadcom Gigabit Ethernet Utility program” on page 118.
v Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) 2.0
IPMI 2.0 support providing secure remote power-on/power-off and several standard alerts for components such as fans, voltage, and temperature.
v Large data-storage capacity and hot-swap capability
8 ThinkServer TD200x Types 3719, 3821, 3822, and 3823: Installation and User Guide
The server supports up to eight or 16 (depending on your model) 2.5-inch hot-swap hard disk drives in the hot-swap bays. With the hot-swap feature, you can add, remove, or replace hard disk drives without turning off the server.
v Large system-memory capacity
The server supports up to 64 GB of system memory. The memory controller supports error correcting code (ECC) for up to 16 single-sided industry-standard third-generation double-data-rate 3 (DDR3) 800, 1066, and 1333, 240-pin, registered, synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM) dual inline memory modules (DIMMs).
v EasyLED diagnostics
EasyLED diagnostics provides LEDs to help you diagnose problems. For more information, see “EasyLED diagnostics panel” on page 17.
v Memory mirroring
Memory mirroring improves the availability of memory by writing information to the main memory and redundant locations in a mirrored pair of DIMMs.
v PCI-32 adapter capabilities
The server has one slot for a PCI-32 adapter.
v PCI Express x8 adapter capabilities
The server has five slots for PCI Express x8 adapters. Three of these slots accept x8 adapters, but the adapters will operate as x4 adapters.
v PCI Express x16 adapter capabilities
The server has one slot for PCI Express x16 adapter, which will operate as an x8 adapter.
v Redundant cooling and power capabilities
The server supports up to two 920-watt hot-swap power supplies. If the server came with only one power supply, you can install an additional power supply with three redundant hot-swap cooling fans to add redundant power and cooling capabilities. If the maximum load on the server is less than 920 watts and a problem occurs with one of the power supplies, the other power supply can meet the power requirements. The redundant cooling of the fans enables continued operation if one of the fans fails.
v RAID support
The server supports an internal RAID SAS Controller, which is required for you to use the hot-swap hard disk drives and to create redundant array of independent disks (RAID) configurations.
v Symmetric multiprocessing (SMP)
®
The server supports up to two Intel
Xeon®quad-core microprocessors. If the server comes with only one microprocessor, you can install an additional microprocessor to enhance performance and provide SMP capability.
v Systems-management capabilities
The server contains an Integrated Management Module (IMM) which enables you to manage the functions of the server locally and remotely and provides remote presence and blue-screen capture capability. The IMM also provides system monitoring and event recording.
v TCP/IP offload engine (TOE) support
The Ethernet controllers in the server support TOE, which is a technology that offloads the TCP/IP flow from the microprocessors and I/O subsystem to increase the speed of the TCP/IP flow. When an operating system that supports TOE is running on the server and TOE is enabled, the server supports TOE operation. See the operating-system documentation for information about enabling TOE.

Notes:
1. Power consumption and heat output vary depending on the number and type of optional features that are installed and the power-management optional features that are in use.
2. These levels were measured in controlled acoustical environments according to the procedures that are specified by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) S12.10 and ISO 7779 and are reported in accordance with ISO 9296. Actual sound-pressure levels in a given location might exceed the average stated values because of room reflections and other nearby noise sources. The declared sound-power levels indicate an upper limit, below which a large number of computers will operate.
