1-2 Processor and Chipset Overview

Built upon the functionality and capability of the Intel E5-2600v3/v4 Series proces-

sors (Socket R3) and the Intel C612 PCH, the X10DRD-L/LT/i/iT/iNT motherboard

provides system performance, power efciency, and feature sets to address the

needs of next-generation computer users. This motherboard is ideal for general

purpose, cloud computing, and datacenter-optimized server platforms.

With support of the new Intel microarchitecture 22nm (E5-2600v3)/14nm (E5-

2600v4) process technology, the X10DRD-L/LT/i/iT/iNT drastically increases system

performance for a multitude of server applications.

The PCH C612 chip provides Enterprise SMbus support, including the following

features:

• DDR4 288 -pin memory suppor t on Socket R3

• Support for MCTP Protocol

• Support for Management Engine (ME)

• Support of SMBus speeds of up to 400KHz for BMC connectivity

• Improved I/O capabilities to high-storage-capacity congurations

• SPI enhancements

• Intel® Node Manager 3.0 for advanced power monitoring, capping, and man-

agement for BMC enhancement

• The BMC supports remote management, virtualization, and the security pack-

age for enterprise platforms

2. Node Manager 3.0 support is dependent on the power supply used in

the system.

1-12

Chapter 1: Overview

1-3 Special Features

Recovery from AC Power Loss

The Basic I/O System (BIOS) provides a setting that determines how the system will

respond when AC power is lost and then restored to the system. You can choose

for the system to remain powered off (in which case you must press the power

switch to turn it back on) or for it to automatically return to the power-on state. See

the Advanced BIOS Setup section for this setting. The default setting is Last State.

1-4 System Health Monitoring

This section describes the features of system health monitoring of the motherboard.

This motherboard has an onboard Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) that

supports system health monitoring. An onboard voltage monitor will scan the fol-

lowing onboard voltages continuously: 1.8V +3.3V, 3.3V standby, +5V, +5V standby,

+12V, memory, chipset, BMC, and battery voltages. Once a voltage becomes

unstable, a warning is given or an error message is sent to the screen. The user

can adjust the voltage thresholds to dene the sensitivity of the voltage monitor.

Fan Status Monitor with Firmware Control

System health monitoring support provided by the BMC controller can check the

RPM status of a cooling fan. The onboard CPU and chassis fans are controlled by

IPMI Thermal Management.

Environmental Temperature Control

System health sensors in the BMC monitors temperatures and voltage settings of

onboard processors and the system in real time via the IPMI interface. Whenever

the temperature of the CPU or the system exceeds a user-dened threshold, the

onboard system/CPU cooling fans will speed up to prevent the CPU or the system

from overheating.

Note: To avoid possible system overheating, please be sure to provide

adequate airow to your system.

System Resource Alert

This feature is available when used with SuperDoctor 5, which is the system health

monitoring soft ware used to notify the user of certain system events. For example,

you can congure SuperDoctor 5 to warn you when the system temperature, CPU

temperatures, voltages, or fan speeds go beyond a predened range.

1-13

X10DRD-L/LT/i/iT/iNT Motherboard User’s Manual

1-5 ACPI Features

ACPI stands for Advanced Conguration and Power Interface. The ACPI speci-

cation denes a exible and abstract hardware interface that provides a standard

way to integrate power management features throughout a system, including its

hardware, operating system, and application software. This enables the system to

automatically turn on and off peripherals such as network cards, hard-disk drives,

and printers.

In addition to power management directed by the operating system, the ACPI also

provides a generic system event mechanism for Plug-and-Play and an interface

(independent of the operating system) for conguration control. ACPI leverages

the Plug-and-Play BIOS data structures, while providing an implementation that is

independent of the processor architecture and compatible with Windows 8/R2 and

Windows 2012/R2 Operating Systems.

1-6 Power Supply

As with all computer products, a stable power source is necessary for proper and

reliable operation. This is even more important for processors that have high CPU

clock rates.

The X10DRD-L/LT/i/iT/iNT motherboard accommodates 24-pin ATX power supplies.

Although most power supplies generally meet the specications required by the

CPU, some are inadequate. In addition, two 12V 8-pin power connectors are also

required to ensure adequate power supply to the system.

Warning!

To avoid damaging the power supply or the motherboard, please use a power supply

that contains a 24-pin, and two 8-pin power connectors, and connect the power supply

to the 24-pin power connector located at JPWR1, and the two 8-pin power connectors

located at JPWR2 and JPWR3. Failure to do so may void the manufacturer warranty

on your power supply and motherboard.

It is strongly recommended that you use a high-quality power supply that meets

the ATX power supply specication 2.02 or above. It must also be SSI-compliant.

(For more information, please refer to the website at http://www.ssiforum.org/.) Ad-

ditionally, in areas where noisy power transmission is present, you may choose to

install a line lter to shield the computer from noise. It is recommended that you

also install a power surge protector to help avoid problems caused by power surges.

1-14

Chapter 1: Overview

1-7 Advanced Power Management

The following new advanced power management features are supported by this

motherboard:

Intel® Intelligent Power Node Manager (NM) (Available
when the Supermicro Power Manager [SPM] is installed)

The Intel® Intelligent Power Node Manager 3.0 (IPNM) provides your system with

real-time thermal control and power management for maximum energy efciency.

Although IPNM Specication Version 2.0/3.0 is supported by the BMC (Baseboard

Management Controller), your system must also have an IPNM-compatible Manage-

ment Engine (ME) rmware installed to use this feature.

Note: Support for IPNM Specication Version 2.0 or Version 3.0 is depen-

dent on the power supply used in the system.

Management Engine (ME)

The Management Engine, which is an ARC controller embedded in the PCH, pro-

vides Server Platform Services (SPS) to your system. The services provided by

SPS are different from those provided by the ME on client platforms.

Unit Identier Switches/UID LED

Indicators

A rear Unit Identier (UID) switch and a rear

UID LED (LED1) are located next to the

VGA port on the motherboard. The front UID

switch and the UID LED are both located on

the front panel control (JF1), with the front

UID switch on pin 13 of JF1 and the front

LED on pin 7. When you press either the

front or rear UID switch, both front and rear

UID LEDs will be turned on. Press the UID

switch again to turn off the LED indicators.

The UID indicators provide easy identica-

tion of a system unit that may be in need

of service.

Note: UID can also be triggered via

IPMI on the motherboard. For more

Fan Headers

This motherboard has eight system/CPU

fan headers (Fans 1-8) on the mother-

board. All these 4-pin fans headers are

backward-compatible with the traditional

3-pin fans. However, fan speed control is

available for 4-pin fans only by Thermal

Management via the IPMI 2.0 interface.

See the table on the right for pin deni-

tions.

Chassis Intrusion

A Chassis Intrusion header is located

at JL1 on the motherboard. Attach an

appropriate cable from the chassis to

inform you of a chassis intrusion when

the chassis is opened.

NVM Express Connections (For X10DRD-iNT Only)

Two NVM Express ports, supported by CPU1, are located on the X10DRD-iNT.

P1-NVME ports 0/1 provide high-speed, low-latency PCI-Exp. 3.0 x4 connections

directly from the CPU to NVMe Solid State (SSD) drives. This greatly increases

SSD data-throughput performance and signicantly reduces PCI-E latency by

simplifying driver/software requirements caused by direct PCI-E inter face from

the CPU to the NVMe SSD drives.

Explanation of Jumpers

To modify the operation of the mother-

board, jumpers can be used to choose

between optional settings. Jumpers create

shorts between two pins to change the

function of the connector. Pin 1 is identied

with a square solder pad on the printed

circuit board. See the motherboard layout

pages for jumper locations.

Note: On two pin jumpers,

"closed" means the jumper is on

the pins, and "open" means the

jumper is off them.

CMOS Clear

JBT1 is used to clear the CMOS. Instead of pins, this "jumper" consists of contact

pads to prevent accidental clearing of the CMOS. To clear the CMOS, use a metal

object such as a small screwdriver to touch both pads at the same time to short

the connection.

Note: Be sure to completely shut down the system, and then short JBT1

to clear the CMOS.

Watch Dog Enable/Disable

The Watch Dog (JWD1) is a system monitor

that will reboot the system when a software

application hangs. Close pins 1-2 to reset

the system if an application hangs. Close

pins 2-3 to generate a non-maskable inter-

rupt signal for the application that hangs.

Troubleshooting

3-1 Troubleshooting Procedures

Use the following procedures to troubleshoot your system. If you have followed all

of the procedures below and still need assistance, refer to the "Technical Support

Procedures" and/or "Returning Merchandise for Service" section(s) in this chapter.

Note: Always disconnect the power cord before adding, changing, or installing any

hardware components.

Before Power On

1. Make sure that there are no short circuits between the motherboard and

chassis.

2. Disconnect all ribbon/wire cables from the motherboard, including those for

the keyboard and mouse.

3. Remove all add-on cards.

4. Install CPU 1 rst (-making sure that it is fully seated), and connect the front

panel connectors to the motherboard.

No Power

1. Make sure that there are no short circuits between the motherboard and the

chassis.

2. Make sure that the ATX power connectors are properly connected.

3. Make sure that the 115V/230V switch, if available, on the power supply is

properly set.

4. Turn the power switch on and off to test the system, if applicable.

5. The battery on your motherboard may be old. Check to verify that it still sup-

plies ~3VDC. If it does not, replace it with a new one.

3-1

X10DRD-L/LT/i/iT/iNT Motherboard User’s Manual

No Video

1. If the power is on, but you have no video, remove all add-on cards and

cables.

2. Use the speaker to determine if any beep codes are present. Refer to Ap-

pendix A for details on beep codes.

System Boot Failure

If the system does not display POST or does not respond after the power is turned

on, check the following:

1. Check for any error beep from the motherboard speaker.

• If there is no error beep, try to turn on the system without DIMM modules in-

stalled. If there is still no error beep, try to turn on the system again with only

one processor installed in CPU Socket 1. If there is still no error beep, replace

the motherboard.

• If there are error beeps, clear the CMOS settings by unplugging the power cord

and contacting both pads on the CMOS Clear Jumper (JBT1). (Refer to Section

2-8 in Chapter 2.)

2. Remove all components from the motherboard, especially the DIMM mod-

ules. Make sure that system power is on, and that memory error beeps are

activated.

3. Turn on the system with only one DIMM module installed. If the system

boots, check for bad DIMM modules or slots by following the Memory Errors

Troubleshooting procedure in this Chapter.

Losing the System’s Setup Conguration

1. Make sure that you are using a high-quality power supply. A poor-quality

power supply may cause the system to lose the CMOS setup information.

Refer to Section 2-7 for details on recommended power supplies.

2. The battery on your motherboard may be old. Check to verify that it still sup-

plies ~3VDC. If it does not, replace it with a new one.

3. If the above steps do not x the setup conguration problem, contact your

vendor for repairs.

3-2

Chapter 3: Troubleshooting

Memory Errors

When a no-memory beep code is issued by the system, check the following:

1. Make sure that the memory modules are compatible with the system and that

the DIMMs are properly and fully installed. (For memory compatibility, refer to

the memory compatibility chart posted on our website @ http://www.supermi-

cro.com.)

2. Check if different speeds of DIMMs have been installed. It is strongly recom-

mended that you use the same RAM type and speed for all DIMMs in the

system.

3. Make sure that you are using the correct type of Load Reduced (LRDIMM)/

Registered (RDIMM) ECC DDR4 DIMM modules recommended by the manu-

facturer.

4. Check for bad DIMM modules or slots by swapping a single module among

all memory slots and check the results.

5. Make sure that all memory modules are fully seated in their slots. Follow the

instructions given in Section 2-5 in Chapter 2.

6. Please follow the instructions given in the DIMM population tables listed in

Section 2-5 to install your memory modules.

When the System Becomes Unstable

A. If the system becomes unstable during or after OS installation, check the

following:

1. CPU/BIOS support: Make sure that your CPU is supported and that you have

the latest BIOS installed in your system.

2. Memory support: Make sure that the memory modules are supported by test-

ing the modules using memtest86 or a similar utility.

Note: Refer to the product page on our website @ http:\\www.supermicro.

com for memory and CPU support and updates.

3. HDD support: Make sure that all hard disk drives (HDDs) work properly. Re-

place the bad HDDs with good ones.

4. System cooling: Check the system cooling to make sure that all heatsink fans

and CPU/system fans, etc., work properly. Check the hardware monitoring

3-3

X10DRD-L/LT/i/iT/iNT Motherboard User’s Manual

settings in the IPMI to make sure that the CPU and system temperatures are

within the normal range. Also check the front panel Overheat LED and make

sure that it is not on.

5. Adequate power supply: Make sure that the power supply provides adequate

power to the system. Make sure that all power connectors are connected.

Please refer to our website for more information on the minimum power

requirements.

6. Proper software support: Make sure that the correct drivers are used.

B. If the system becomes unstable before or during OS installation, check

the following:

1. Source of installation: Make sure that the devices used for installation are

working properly, including boot devices such as CD/DVD.

2. Cable connection: Check to make sure that all cables are connected and

working properly.

3. Using the minimum conguration for troubleshooting: Remove all unnecessary

components (starting with add-on cards rst), and use the minimum congura-

tion (but with a CPU and a memory module installed) to identify the trouble

areas. Refer to the steps listed in Section A above for proper troubleshooting

procedures.

4. Identifying bad components by isolating them: If necessary, remove a compo-

nent in question from the chassis, and test it in isolation to make sure that it

works properly. Replace a bad component with a good one.

5. Check and change one component at a time instead of changing several

items at the same time. This will help isolate and identify the problem.

6. To nd out if a component is good, swap this component with a new one to

see if the system will work properly. If so, then the old component is bad.

You can also install the component in question in another system. If the new

system works, the component is good and the old system has problems.
