Chapter 3. What is included with your server
The TD200x server package includes the server, printed instructions, the
ThinkServer Documentation DVD, and software media.
1Server
2Power 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,
– 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 HardwareMaintenance 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
8ThinkServer 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)
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:
38ThinkServer 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.

Server components
The following illustration shows the major components in the server.
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.
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 Depending on the model, the server supports up to eight or up to 16 2.5-inch
SAS hot-swap hard disk drives in the hot-swap bays.
v The hot-swap bays are arranged horizontally in the top and bottom hard disk
drive cages:
Chapter 5. Installing optional devices and replacing customer replaceable units81
Page 98
– On models with eight hard disk drives, the top bays are numbered 0 through 7
(from right to left)
– On models with 16 hard disk drives, the top bays are numbered 0 through 7
(from right to left) and the bottom bays are 8 through 15 (from right to left)
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.
