Chapter 1: Overview

1-2 Processor and Chipset Overview

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

(Socket R3) and the Intel C612 PCH, the X10DRW-E/ET/N/NT motherboard pro-

vides the best balanced solution of performance, power efciency, and features

to address the diverse needs of next-generation data centers.

With support of new Intel Microarchitecture 22nm (E5-2600v3)/14nm (E5-2600v4)

Processing Technology, the X10DRW-E/ET/N/NT dramatically increases system

performance.

The PCH C612 chip provides enterprise SMbus and MCTP suppor t, including the

following features:

• DDR4 288 -pin memory support on Socket R3

• Hybrid clock support capable of extending to most 2S platforms

• Support for Management Engine (ME)

X10DRW-E/ET/N/NT Motherboard User’s Manual

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) chip

that provides system health monitoring. The BMC will scan the following onboard

voltages continuously: +3.3V, 3.3V Standby, +12V, +5V, +5V Standby, CPU core,

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

The 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 2.0.

Environmental Temperature Control

A thermal control sensor in the BMC monitors the CPU temperature in real time

and will turn on the thermal control fan whenever the CPU temperature exceeds a

user-dened threshold in IPMI settings. When the CPU temperature becomes too

high, thermal fan control will be automatically turned on to prevent the CPU 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. SuperDoctor 5 is used

to notify the user of certain system events. For example, you can congure

SuperDoctor 5 to provide you with warnings when the system temperature, CPU

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

1-12

Chapter 1: Overview

1-5 ACPI Features

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

tion 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 operating system-directed power management, ACPI also provides

a generic system event mechanism for Plug and Play, and an operating system-

independent interface for conguration control. ACPI leverages the Plug and Play

BIOS data structures, while providing a processor architecture-independent imple-

mentation that is 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. It is even more important for processors that have high CPU

clock rates.

The X10DRW-E/ET/N/NT 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 connections are also

required to ensure adequate power supply to the system.

Warning! To avoid damaging the power supply or the motherboard, be sure to use a

power supply that contains a 24-pin and two 8-pin power connectors. Be sure to con-

nect the power supply to the 24-pin power connector (JPWR1), and two 8-pin power

connectors (JPWR2, JPWR3) on the motherboard. Failure in doing 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 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/). Additionally, 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.

X10DRW-E/ET/N/NT Motherboard User’s Manual

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 3.0/2.0 is supported by the BMC (Baseboard

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

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

Note: IPNM specication support is dependent 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.

2-3 Motherboard Installation

All motherboards have standard mounting holes to t different types of chassis.

Make sure that the locations of all the mounting holes for both motherboard and

chassis match. Although a chassis may have both plastic and metal mounting fas-

teners, metal ones are highly recommended because they ground the motherboard

to the chassis. Make sure that the metal standoffs click in or are screwed in tightly.

Then use a screwdriver to secure the motherboard onto the motherboard tray.

Tools Needed

• Phillips Screwdriver

• Pan head screws (7 pieces)

• Standoffs (7 pieces, if needed)

Location of Mounting Holes

There are seven (10) mounting holes on this motherboard indicated by the arrows.

2-4 Processor and Heatsink Installation

Warning: When handling the processor package, avoid placing direct pressure on

the label area. Also, improper CPU installation or socket/pin misalignment can cause

serious damage to the CPU or the motherboard that will require RMA repairs. Be sure

to read and follow all instructions thoroughly before installing your CPU and heatsink.

Notes:

Always connect the power cord last, and always remove it before adding,

removing or changing any hardware components. Make sure that you in-

stall the processor into the CPU socket before you install the CPU heatsink.

If you buy a CPU separately, make sure that you use an Intel-certied

multi-directional heatsink only.

Make sure to install the motherboard into the chassis before you install

the CPU heatsink.

Unit Identier Switches/UID LED

Indicators

A rear Unit Identier (UID) switch (UID-SW)

and a rear LED (LED1) are located close to

LAN 2 port on the rear side of the mother-

board. The front UID switch is located at pin

13 of the Front Control Panel (JF1), while

the front UID LED is located on pin 7 of JF1.

When you press the front UID switch or the

rear one, both front and rear UID LEDs will

be turned on. Press the UID switch again to

turn off the LED indicator. The UID Indicators

provide easy identication of a system unit

that may be in need of service.

Note: UID can also be triggered via

IPMI on the motherboard. For more

information on IPMI, please refer to

the IPMI User's Guide posted on

our website @http://www.super-

Power Connectors

A 24-pin main power supply connector

(JPWR1), and two 8-pin CPU power con-

nectors (JPWR2/JPWR3) are located on

the motherboard. These power connectors

meet the SSI EPS 12V specication and

must be connected to your power supply to

provide adequate power to the system. See

the tables on the right for pin denitions.

Warning: To provide adequate power supply

to the motherboard, be sure to connect the

24-pin ATX PWR (JPWR1), and the two 8-pin

PWR connectors (JPWR2, JPWR3) to the

power supply. Failure to do so may void the

manufacturer warranty on your power supply

Chapter 2: Installation

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 and "Open" means the jumper

is off the pins.

LAN Enable/Disable

JPL1 enables or disables Gigabit L AN

ports 1/2 on the X10DW-E/N, and 10G-

LAN (TLAN) ports 1/2 on the X10DW-ET/

settings. The default setting is Enabled.

COM1

CMOS Clear

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

to prevent accidental clearing of CMOS. To clear CMOS, use a metal object such

as a small screwdriver to touch both pads at the same time to short the connection.

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

clear CMOS.

Watch Dog Enable/Disable

Watch Dog (JWD1) is a system monitor that

will reboot the system when a software ap -

plication hangs. Close pins 1-2 to reset the

system if an application hangs. Close pins

2-3 to generate a non-maskable interrupt

signal for the application that hangs. See the

table on the right for jumper settings. Watch

Dog must also be enabled in the BIOS.

Ten SATA connections are located on the motherboard.

I-SATA0-5 are supported by Intel PCH. S-SATA con-

nections 0-3 are supported by Intel SCU. Please note

that I-SATA4/5 are used with Supermicro SuperDOM

(Disk-on-Module) connectors, which are yellow SATA-

DOM connectors with power pins built-in and do not re-

quire separate external power cables. These connectors

are back-compatible with non-Supermicro SATADOMs

that require external power supply. SATA ports provide

serial-link connections, which are faster than the con-

nections of Parallel ATA. See the table on the right for

pin denitions.

NVM Express Connections (X10DRW-N/NT Only)

Two NVM Express ports are located on the motherboard. These NVM ports

provide PCI -Exp. 3.0 x4 connections. P1_NVME0/1 are supported by CPU1. The

NVM Express ports provide high-speed low-latency 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 resulted from direct PCI-E interface from the CPU

to the NVMe SSD drives.

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 install-

ing 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 it is fully seated) and connect the front panel

connectors to the motherboard.

No Power

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

2. Make sure that all power connectors are properly connected.

3. Check that the 115V/230V switch on the power supply is properly set, if avail-

able.

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

X10DRW-E/ET/N/NT Motherboard User’s Manual

No Video

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

cables.

2. Use the speaker to determine if any beep codes exist. Refer to Appendix 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 contracting 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 modules.

Make sure that system power is on, and 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 DIMM modules are properly and fully installed. (For memory compatibility,

refer to the Memory Compatibility Chart posted on our website @ http://www.

supermicro.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) DDR4 ECC modules recommended by the manufacturer.

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

the following:

1. CPU/BIOS support: Make sure that your CPU is supported, and 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 system cooling to make sure that all heatsink fans,

and CPU/system fans, etc., work properly. Check Hardware Monitoring set-

tings in the IPMI to make sure that the CPU and System temperatures are

3-3

X10DRW-E/ET/N/NT Motherboard User’s Manual

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

sure that the Overheat LED 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 minimum power require-

ment.

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

B. When 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 disc.

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

working properly.

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

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

(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 proce-

dures.

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.
