Please take note of the following criteria for creating a practical and safe workplace when setting up
your computer:
The system can be used anywhere the temperature is suitable for people. However, rooms
with humidity over 70 %, and dusty or dirty areas are not appropriate. In addition, do not
expose the server to any temperatures over +30 °C or under +10 °C.
Make sure that the cables connecting the server to peripheral devices are not tight.
Make sure that all power and connection cables are positioned so that they are not trip
hazards.
When you save data to your server‘s hard disks or to a floppy disk, they are stored as
magnetic information on the media. Make sure that they are not damaged by magnetic or
electromagnetic fields.
Because the electronics in your computer can be damaged by jarring, no mechanical devices
should be placed on the same surface as the server. This is especially important for impact
printers whose vibrations could damage the hard disk.
Please take care to ensure a free air flow to the server at all times. Do not block the ventilation
slots of the server case and particularly the power supplies. An insufficient air flow may
damage the server and / or it’s components.
ATTENTION
In order to fully separate the server from current, the power cord must be removed from the wall
outlet.
ATTENTION
Safety instruction for upright devices: To ensure stability, the floor stands must be turned
outwards.

Processor
One or two Intel® Xeon® 5500 processors must be installed.
System Memory
The server board provides four memory channels, each with two slots. Channels A and B with
DIMM A1, A2, B1 and B2 are assigned to processor 1. Channels D and E with DIMM D1, D2, E1
and E2 are assigned to processor 2. Channels D and E can only be used if processor 2 is populated.
If two processors are populated, then they can both access the entire memory via Intel® QuickPath
Interconnect (Intel® QPI).
Within a channel, DIMM 1 must be populated before DIMM 2 can be used.
DIMM configuration is shown in the following figure.

Memory Mirroring
The chipset supports memory mirroring. Memory mirroring is a concept intended to avoid loss of
data if one DIMM fails.
The maximum useable memory amounts to half of the installed memory in a mirrored system.
Memory mirroring is achieved by mirroring both memory channels of each processor.
For memory mirroring, the DIMMs need to have the same capacity and technology across all
channels.
Optional Hardware
Remote Management Module
The Remote Management Module provides extended functions for server management.
A network card is provided specifically for remote access.

4 Server Utilities
Using the BIOS Setup Utility
This section describes the BIOS Setup Utility options, which is used to change server configuration
defaults. You can run BIOS Setup with or without an operating system present.
Starting Setup
You can enter and start BIOS Setup under several conditions:
• When you turn on the server, after POST completes the memory test
• When you have moved the CMOS jumper on the server board to the “Clear CMOS” position
(enabled)
In the two conditions listed above, after rebooting, you will see this prompt:
Press <F2> to enter SETUP
In a third condition, when CMOS/NVRAM has been corrupted, you will see other prompts but not
the <F2> prompt:
Warning: CMOS checksum invalid
Warning: CMOS time and date not set
In this condition, the BIOS will load default values for CMOS and attempt to boot.
If You Cannot Access Setup
If you are not able to access BIOS Setup, you might need to clear the CMOS memory. For instructions
on clearing the CMOS, see “Clearing the CMOS”.
Setup Menus
Each BIOS Setup menu page contains a number of features. Except for those features that are
provided only to display automatically configured information, each feature is associated with a
value field that contains user-selectable parameters. These parameters can be changed if the user
has adequate security rights. If a value cannot be changed for any reason, the feature’s value field
is inaccessible.
