Caution – Insert the connector straight into the server module. The cable dongle is |
|
|
|
|
for temporary connections only. The cable dongle has not been evaluated for |
|
|
|
|
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). The cable dongle or server module connectors |
|
|
|
|
could be damaged by closing rack doors or other impacts. Remove the cable dongle |
|
|
|
|
during normal system operation. |

|
|
|
Note – If you are using the older 4-cable dongle (UCP-4), do not use the RJ-45 |
|
|
|
|
connector with the Sun Blade T6320 server module. Use the DB-9 connector for serial |
|

1.1.1Multicore Processor Information
The UltraSPARC® T2 multicore processor is the basis of the Sun Blade T6320 server module. The processor has four, six, or eight UltraSPARC cores. Each core equates to a 64-bit execution pipeline capable of running eight threads. The result is that the
Chapter 1 Sun Blade T6320 Server Module Product Description 1-9
8-core processor handles up to 64 active threads concurrently. For more information about the UltraSPARC® T2 multicore processor, go to: http://www.sun.com/processors/UltraSPARC-T2/features.xml http://www.sun.com/servers/wp.jsp?tab=1
1.2Support for RAID Storage Configurations
In addition to software RAID configurations, you can set up hardware RAID 1 (mirroring) and hardware RAID 0 (striping) configurations for any pair of internal hard drives using the on-board controller, providing a high-performance solution for hard drive mirroring.
By attaching one or more external storage devices (such as the Sun Blade 6000 Disk Module) to the Sun Blade T6320 server module, you can use a RAID to configure system drive storage in a variety of different RAID levels.
As shipped, the internal hard drives are not configured for RAID. To make a disk part of a RAID array while preserving the data on the drive, add the drive to a mirrored RAID set (also known as hardware RAID Level 1).
Before configuring RAID, you must configure a RAID expansion module (REM).The Sun Blade T6340 Server Module supports two REMs, the Sun Blade RAID 5 and Sun Blade RAID 0/1 G2 Expansion Modules.
Refer to the following for RAID configuration instructions:
■Uniform Command-Line Interface User's Guide, 820-2145
■Sun StorageTek RAID Manager Software User's Guide, 820-1177
■Sun StorageTek SAS RAID HBA Installation Guide Eight-Port, Internal HBA http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-1847-17
■Sun Blade 6000 Disk Module Administration Guide, 820-4922 http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/prod/blade.6000disk~blade6000dskmod
Note – The Sun Blade 6000 Disk Module is an external storage blade that provides eight additional drives for configuring RAID and is supported for both REMs.
1-10 Sun Blade T6320 Server Module Service Manual • June 2009
1.2.1Sun Blade RAID 5 Expansion Module
The Sun Blade RAID 5 Expansion Module supports RAID levels 0, 1, 1E, 10, 5, or 6 with global or dedicated hot spares. When a Sun Blade RAID 5 Expansion Module is installed, SAS drives can be installed in disk slots 0 through 3. You can configure these disks as RAID 0, 1, 5, or 10.
For information on creating a bootable array, see Appendix B. For information on installing the OS on a bootable array, see Appendix C.
1.2.2Sun Blade RAID 0/1 G2 Expansion Module
The Sun Blade RAID 0/1 G2 Expansion Module supports RAID 1 (two mirrored disks with an optional hot spare) or RAID 1E (three or more mirrored disks with one or two hot spares).
1.3Finding the Serial Number
To obtain support for your system, you need the serial number. The serial number is located on a sticker on the front of the server module (FIGURE 1-6).

2.1Sun Blade T6320 Server Module Diagnostics Overview
There are a variety of diagnostic tools, commands, and indicators you can use to monitor and troubleshoot a Sun Blade T6320 server module.
■LEDs – Provide a quick visual notification of the status of the server module and some of the FRUs.
■ILOM firmware – This system firmware runs on the service processor. In addition to providing the interface between the hardware and the Solaris OS, ILOM tracks and reports the health of key server module components. ILOM works closely with POST and Solaris Predictive Self-Healing technology to keep the system up and running even when there is a faulty component. For more information about ILOM, see these documents:
■Sun Integrated Lights out Manager 2.0 User’s Guide, 820-1188
■Sun Integrated Lights Out Manager 2.0 Supplement for Sun Blade T6320 Server Modules, 820-2546. This document describes ILOM information specific to the UltraSPARC and the Sun Blade T6320 server module. It also provides command comparisons of the ALOM CMT and ILOM CLI command sets.
■Appendix D of this service manual provides some information about using the ALOM CMT CLI.
■Power-on self-test (POST) – POST performs diagnostics on system components upon system reset to ensure the integrity of those components. POST is configurable and works with ILOM to take faulty components offline if needed.
■Solaris OS Predictive Self-Healing (PSH) – This technology continuously monitors the health of the CPU and memory, and other components. PSH works with ILOM to take a faulty component offline if needed. The Predictive SelfHealing technology enables Sun systems to accurately predict component failures and mitigate many serious problems before they occur.
■Log files and console messages – Provide the standard Solaris OS log files and investigative commands that can be accessed and displayed on the device of your choice.
■SunVTS™ – An application that exercises the system, provides hardware validation, identifies possible faulty components, and provides recommendations for repair.
The LEDs, ILOM, Solaris OS PSH, and many of the log files and console messages are integrated. For example, when the Solaris software detects a fault, it will display the fault, log it, pass information to ILOM where the fault is logged, and depending on the fault, one or more LEDs may be illuminated.
2-2 Sun Blade T6320 Server Module Service Manual • June 2009
The diagnostic flowchart in FIGURE 2-1 and TABLE 2-1 describes an approach for using the server module diagnostics to identify a faulty field-replaceable unit (FRU). The diagnostics you use, and the order in which you use them, depend on the nature of the problem you are troubleshooting, so you might perform some actions and not others.
Use this flowchart to understand what diagnostics are available to troubleshoot faulty hardware, and use to find more information about each diagnostic in this chapter.
