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
Page 24
– 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
Page 25
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.

Chapter 5. Installing optional devices and replacing customer replaceable units

This chapter provides detailed instructions for installing optional hardware devices in the server.

Installation guidelines

Before you install optional devices, read the following information: v Read the safety information that begins on page vii, “Working inside the server
with the power on” on page 38, “Handling static-sensitive devices” on page 39, and the guidelines in this section. This information will help you work safely.
v When you install your new server, take the opportunity to download and apply
the most recent firmware updates. This step will help to ensure that any known issues are addressed and that your server is ready to function at maximum levels of performance. To download firmware updates for your server, do the following:
1. Go to: http://www.lenovo.com/support.
2. Enter your product number (machine type and model number) or select Servers and Storage from the Select your product list.
3. Select Servers and Storage from the Brand list.
4. From Family list, select ThinkServer TD200x, and click Continue.
5. Click Downloads and drivers to download firmware updates.
v Before you install optional hardware, make sure that the server is working
correctly. If an operating system is installed, start the server, and make sure that the operating system starts. If no operating system is installed, make sure that a 19990305 error code is displayed, indicating that an operating system was not found but the server is otherwise working correctly. If the server is not working correctly, refer to the Hardware Maintenance Manual for diagnostic information.
v Observe good housekeeping in the area where you are working. Place removed
covers and other parts in a safe place.
v If you must start the server while the cover is removed, make sure that no one is
near the server and that no tools or other objects have been left inside the server.
v Do not attempt to lift an object that you think is too heavy for you. If you have to
lift a heavy object, observe the following precautions: – Make sure that you can stand safely without slipping. – Distribute the weight of the object equally between your feet. – Use a slow lifting force. Never move suddenly or twist when you lift a heavy
object.
– To avoid straining the muscles in your back, lift by standing or by pushing up
with your leg muscles.
v Make sure that you have an adequate number of properly grounded electrical
outlets for the server, monitor, and other devices.
v Back up all important data before you make changes to disk drives. v Have a small flat-blade screwdriver available. v To view the error LEDs on the system board and internal components, leave the
server connected to power.
v You do not have to turn off the server to install or replace hot-swap fans,
redundant hot-swap ac power supplies, or hot-plug Universal Serial Bus (USB)

Page 54
devices. However, you must turn off the server before performing any steps that involve removing or installing adapter cables or non-hot-swap optional devices or components.
v Blue on a component indicates touch points, where you can grip the component
to remove it from or install it in the server, open or close a latch, and so on.
v Orange on a component or an orange label on or near a component indicates
that the component can be hot-swapped, which means that if the server and operating system support hot-swap capability, you can remove or install the component while the server is running. (Orange can also indicate touch points on hot-swap components.) See the instructions for removing or installing a specific hot-swap component for any additional procedures that you might have to perform before you remove or install the component.
v When you are finished working on the server, reinstall all safety shields, guards,
labels, and ground wires.
v For a list of supported optional devices for the server, see
http://www.lenovo.com/thinkserver.
v When working inside the server, you might find some tasks easier if you lay the
server on its side.

System reliability guidelines

To help ensure proper cooling and system reliability, make sure that the following requirements are met:
v Each of the drive bays has a drive or an electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
shield installed in it.
v If the server has redundant power, each of the power-supply bays has a
power-supply installed in it.
v There is adequate space around the server to allow the server cooling system to
work properly. Leave approximately 50 mm (2.0 in.) of open space around the front and rear of the server. Do not place objects in front of the fans. For proper cooling and airflow, replace the left-side cover before you turn on the server. Operating the server for extended periods of time (more than 30 minutes) with the left-side cover removed might damage server components.
v You have followed the cabling instructions that come with optional adapters. v You have replaced a failed fan within 48 hours. v You have replaced a hot-swap drive within 2 minutes of removal. v You do not remove the air duct or air baffles while the server is running.
Operating the server without the air duct or air baffles might cause the microprocessor to overheat.
v Microprocessor socket 2 always contains either a microprocessor duct or a
microprocessor and heat sink.

Working inside the server with the power on

Attention: Static electricity that is released to internal server components when
the server is powered on might cause the server to halt, which might result in the loss of data. To avoid this potential problem, always use an electrostatic-discharge wrist strap or other grounding system when you work inside the server with the power on.
The server supports hot-swap devices and is designed to operate safely while it is turned on and the cover is removed. Follow these guidelines when you work inside a server that is turned on:
38 ThinkServer TD200x Types 3719, 3821, 3822, and 3823: Installation and User Guide
Page 55
v Avoid wearing loose-fitting clothing on your forearms. Button long-sleeved shirts
before working inside the server; do not wear cuff links while you are working inside the server.
v Do not allow your necktie or scarf to hang inside the server. v Remove jewelry, such as bracelets, necklaces, rings, and loose-fitting wrist
watches.
v Remove items from your shirt pocket, such as pens and pencils, that might fall
into the server as you lean over it.
v Avoid dropping any metallic objects, such as paper clips, hairpins, and screws,
into the server.

Handling static-sensitive devices

Attention: Static electricity can damage the server and other electronic devices.
To avoid damage, keep static-sensitive devices in their static-protective packages until you are ready to install them.
To reduce the possibility of damage from electrostatic discharge, observe the following precautions:
v Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around
you.
v Wear an electrostatic-discharge wrist strap, if one is available. v Handle the device carefully, holding it by its edges or its frame. v Do not touch solder joints, pins, or exposed circuitry. v Do not leave the device where others can handle and damage it. v While the device is still in its static-protective package, touch it to an unpainted
metal part of the server for at least 2 seconds. This drains static electricity from the package and from your body.
v Remove the device from its package and install it directly into the server without
setting down the device. If it is necessary to set down the device, put it back into its static-protective package. Do not place the device on the server cover or on a metal surface.
v Take additional care when handling devices during cold weather. Heating reduces
indoor humidity and increases static electricity.

v For a list of supported optional devices for the server, see
http://www.lenovo.com/thinkserver.
v Inspect the drive and drive bay for signs of damage. v Make sure that the drive is correctly installed in the drive bay. v See the documentation for the ServeRAID controller for instructions for installing
a hard disk drive.
v All hot-swap drives in the server must have the same throughput speed rating;
using drives with different speed ratings might cause all drives to operate at the throughput of the slowest drive.
v You do not have to turn off the server to install hot-swap drives in the hot-swap
drive bays. However, you must turn off the server when you perform any steps that involve installing or removing cables.
v The drive ID for each hot-swap hard disk drive is printed above the drive bay.

To install a hot-swap hard disk drive, do the following:
1. Read the safety information that begins on page vii and “Handling static-sensitive devices” on page 39.
Attention: Static electricity that is released to internal server components when the server is powered on might cause the server to halt, which might result in the loss of data. To avoid this potential problem, always use an electrostatic-discharge wrist strap or other grounding system when you work inside the server with the power on.
2. Touch the static-protective package that contains the disk drive to any unpainted metal surface on the server; then, remove the disk drive from the package.
3. Remove the filler panel from the hot-swap drive bay, if one is installed.
4. Make sure that the tray handle is open; then, install the hard disk drive into the hot-swap bay.
5. Rotate the drive handle down until the drive is seated in the hot-swap bay and the release latch clicks into place.
Notes:
a. After installing the hard disk drive, check the disk drive status LEDs to verify
that the hard disk drive is operating correctly. If the amber hard disk drive status LED is lit continuously, that drive is faulty
and must be replaced. If the green hard disk drive activity LED is flashing, the drive is being accessed.
b. If the server is configured for RAID operation using an optional ServeRAID
adapter, you might have to reconfigure your disk arrays after you install hard disk drives. See the documentation that was included with the optional adapter for additional information about RAID operation.

Removing a memory module

1 DIMM 2 Retaining clip
To remove a dual inline memory module (DIMM), do the following:
1. Read the safety information that begins on page vii and “Handling static-sensitive devices” on page 39.
2. Turn off the server and peripheral devices, and disconnect the power cords and all external cables.
3. Turn the server on its side so that it is lying flat, with the cover facing up.
4. Unlock and remove the left-side cover (see “Removing the left-side cover” on page 42).
5. Remove the hot-swap power supply or power supplies from the power-supply cage (see “Removing a hot-swap power supply” on page 63).
6. Rotate the power-supply cage to its open position (see “Opening the power-supply cage” on page 47).
7. Remove the air baffle (see “Removing the air baffle” on page 58).
8. Locate the DIMM connectors on the system board (see “System-board internal connectors” on page 25).
Attention: To avoid breaking the retaining clips or damaging the DIMM connectors, handle the clips gently.
9. Move the DIMM retaining clips on the side of the DIMM connector to the open position by pressing the retaining clips away from the center of the DIMM connector.
10. Using your fingers, lift the DIMM out of the DIMM connector.
11. If you are instructed to return the DIMM, follow all packaging instructions, and use any packaging materials for shipping that are supplied to you.
