SUPERSERVER 5010H/5010E Manual
1-3 Mainboard Features
At the heart of the SuperServer 5010H/5010E lies the 370SSR+/370SSE+, a single processor motherboard designed to provide maximum performance. Below are the main features of the 370SSR+/370SSE+.
Chipset Overview
Intel’s 815E chipset is made up of three main components: the Graphics and Memory Controller Hub (GMCH), the I/O Controller Hub (ICH) and the Firm­ware Hub (FWH). The GMCH integrates a 133/100/66 MHz system bus controller, a 2D/3D graphics accelerator (AGP2x/4x) discrete graphics card, a 133/100 MHz SDRAM controller and a high-speed hub architecture inter­face that communicates with the ICH. The ICH integrates a UDMA/100 con­troller, USB controllers and other I/O functions (see below). The FWH stores both system and video BIOS and includes a Random Number Genera­tor (RNG).
Graphics and Memory Controller Hub (GMCH)
The GMCH includes the host (CPU) interface, DRAM interface, ICH2 inter­face and 4xAGP interface for the 815E chipset. It contains advanced power management logic and supports dual channels for DRAM. The AGP 2.0 interface supports 4x data transfers and operates at a peak bandwidth of 1066 MB/sec. The MCH host interface bus runs at 133/100/66 MHz.
I/O Controller Hub (ICH2)
The ICH2 is the I/O Controller Hub subsystem on the 370SSR+/370SSE+, which integrates many of the Input/Output functions of the 815E chipset, including UDMA/100 Bus Master IDE controllers. It also provides the inter­face to the PCI Bus and communicates with the MCH over a dedicated hub interface. In addition to the UDMA/100 Bus Master IDE controllers, this powerful ICH2 also includes two USB controllers that offer 24 Mbps of bandwidth across three ports. ICH2 also features an enhanced AC'97 interface that supports full surround sound for the Dolby Digital Audio used on DVDs.
Firmware Hub (FWH)
The FWH is a component that brings added security and manageability to the PC platform infrastructure. This device includes an integrated Random
1-4
Chapter 1: Introduction
Number Generator (RNG) for stronger encryption, digital signing and secu­rity protocols. The FWH stores the system BIOS and video BIOS to eliminate a redundant nonvolatile memory component.

The 370SSR+/370SSE+ supports single 370-pin Pentium III FCPGA 600 MHz­1 GHz and Celeron FCPGA/PPGA 300-700 MHz processors with Front Side Bus Speeds of 133/100/66 MHz. Please refer to the support section of our web site for a complete listing of supported processors (http:// www.supermicro.com/TechSupport.htm).
Memory
The 370SSR+/370SSE+ has three (3) 168-pin DIMM 250 sockets that can support up to 512 MB of unbuffered PC133 and PC100 SDRAM. Module sizes of 128MB, 256MB, and 512MB may be used to populate the DIMM slots. The DIMM slots are situated at a 25 degree angle to create a low profile and to promote efficient airflow through the chassis.
Onboard SCSI (5010H only)
Onboard SCSI is provided with an Adaptec AIC-7899 SCSI controller chip, which supports dual channel, Ultra160 SCSI at a burst throughput rate of 160 MB/sec for each channel. The 370SSR+ provides two SCSI ports: one internal 68-pin LVD Ultra160 connector (on channels A) and one external/ internal (shared) 68-pin Ultra160 SCSI connector (channel B).
PCI Expansion Slots
The 370SSR+/370SSE+ has one 32-bit 33 MHz PCI slot available. One riser card is included with the system for use with 32-bit PCI cards.
Network Interface Controllers (NIC)
The 370SSR+/370SSE+ supports two Network Interface controllers (NIC) based on Intel's 82559 and 82562 chips. (For the 5010H server that is based on the 370SSR+ Version 1.2 mainboard, two 82559 Ethernet chips are included in the system.)
1-5
SUPERSERVER 5010H/5010E Manual
Onboard Controllers/Ports
An onboard IDE controller supports one floppy drive and up to four UDMA/100 hard drives or ATAPI devices. Onboard I/O ports include one COM port, two USB ports, PS/2 mouse and keyboard ports, a video (Graph­ics) port and two LAN (NIC) ports which back each other up in case one port loses connection.
Other Features
Other onboard features that promote system health include eight voltage monitors, a chassis intrusion header, auto-switching voltage regulators, chassis and CPU overheat sensors, virus protection and BIOS rescue.

2-1 Overview
This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your SuperServer 5010H/5010E up and running. Following these steps in the order given should enable you to have the system operational within a minimum amount of time. This quick setup assumes that your SuperServer 5010H/5010E system has come to you with the processor and memory preinstalled. If your system is not already fully integrated with a motherboard, processor, system memory etc., please turn to the chapter or section noted in each step for details on installing specific components.
2-2 Unpacking the SuperServer 5010H/5010E
You should inspect the box the SuperServer 5010H/5010E was shipped in and note if it was damaged in any way. If the server itself shows damage, you should file a damage claim with the carrier who delivered it.
Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold the SuperServer 5010H/5010E. It should be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas where heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic fields are generated. You will also need it placed near a grounded power outlet. Read the Rack and Server Precautions in the next section.
2-3 Preparing for Setup
The box the SuperServer 5010H/5010E was shipped in should include two sets of rail assemblies, two rail mounting brackets and the mounting screws you will need to install the system into the rack. Follow the steps in the order given to complete the installation process in a minimum amount of time. Please read this section in its entirety before you begin the installation procedure outlined in the sections that follow.
2-1
SUPERSERVER 5010H/5010E Manual
Choosing a Setup Location:
- Leave enough clearance in front of the rack to enable you to open
the front door completely (~25 inches).
- Leave approximately 30 inches of clearance in the back of the rack
to allow for sufficient airflow and ease in servicing.
! !
Warnings and Precautions!
Rack Precautions:
- Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully
extended to the floor with the full weight of the rack resting on them.
- In single rack installation, stabilizers should be attached to the rack.
- In multiple rack installations, the racks should be coupled together.
- Always make sure the rack is stable before extending a component
from the rack.
- You should extend only one component at a time - extending two or
more simultaneously may cause the rack to become unstable.
Server Precautions:
- Review the electrical and general safety precautions in Chapter 4.
- Determine the placement of each component in the rack
install the rails.
- Install the heaviest server components on the bottom of the rack
first, and then work up.
- Use a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect the server from power surges, voltage spikes and to keep your system operating in case of a power failure.
- Allow the hot plug SCSI drives (5010H) and power supply units to
cool before
touching them.
- Always keep the rack's front door and all panels and components on
the servers closed when not servicing to maintain proper cooling.

2-4 Installing the SuperServer 5010H/5010E into a Rack
This section provides information on installing the SuperServer 5010H/5010E into a rack unit. If the 5010H/5010E has already been mounted into a rack, you can skip ahead to Sections 2-5 and 2-6. There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may mean the assembly procedure will differ slightly. The following is a guideline for installing the 5010H/5010E into a rack with the rack rails provided. You should also refer to the installation instructions that came with the rack unit you are using.
Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails:
You should have received two rack rail assemblies with the SuperServer 5010H/5010E. Each of these assemblies consist of two sections: an inner fixed chassis rail that secures to the 5010H/5010E (A) and an outer fixed rack rail that secures directly to the rack itself (B). A sliding rail guide sandwiched between the two should remain attached to the fixed rack rail. (See Figure 2-1.) The A and B rails must be detached from each other to install.
To remove the fixed chassis rail (A), pull it out as far as possible - you should hear a "click" sound as a locking tab emerges from inside the rail assembly and locks the inner rail. Then depress the locking tab to pull the
inner rail completely out. Do this for both the left and right side rack rail assemblies.

Position the fixed chassis rail sections you just removed along the side of the 5010H/5010E chassis making sure the five screw holes line up. Note that these two rails are left/right specific. Screw the rail securely to the side of the chassis (see Figure 2-2). Repeat this procedure for the other rail on the other side of the chassis. You will also need to attach the rail brackets when installing into a telco rack.
Locking Tabs: As you have seen, both chassis rails have a locking tab, which serves two functions. The first is to lock the server into place when installed and pushed fully into the rack, which is its normal position. Secondly, these tabs also lock the server in place when fully extended from the rack. This prevents the server from coming completely out of the rack when you pull it out for servicing.
Figure 2-2. Installing Chassis Rails
Installing the Rack Rails:
Determine where you want to place the SuperServer 5010H/5010E in the rack. (See Rack and Server Precautions in Section 2-3.) Position the fixed rack rail/sliding rail guide assemblies at the desired location in the rack, keeping the sliding rail guide facing the inside of the rack. Screw the

assembly securely to the rack using the brackets provided. Attach the other assembly to the other side of the rack, making sure that both are at the exact same height and with the rail guides facing inward.
Installing the Server into the Rack:
You should now have rails attached to both the chassis and the rack unit. The next step is to install the server into the chassis. Do this by lining up the rear of the chassis rails with the front of the rack rails. Slide the chassis rails into the rack rails, keeping the pressure even on both sides (you may have to depress the locking tabs when inserting). See Figure 2-3.
When the server has been pushed completely into the rack, you should hear the locking tabs "click". Finish by inserting and tightening the thumbscrews that hold the front of the server to the rack.

Installing the Server into a Telco Rack:
If you are installing the SuperServer 5010H/5010E into a Telco type rack, follow the directions given on the previous pages for rack installation. The only difference in the installation procedure will be the positioning of the rack brackets to the rack. They should be spaced apart just enough to accomodate the width of the telco rack.

2-5 Checking the Motherboard Setup
After you install the 5010H/5010E in the rack, you will need to open the unit to make sure the motherboard is properly installed and all the connections have been made.
1. Accessing the inside of the 5010H/5010E (see Figure 2-5):
First, release the retention screws that secure the unit to the rack. Grasp the two handles on either side and pull the unit straight out until it locks (you will hear a "click"). Next, depress the two buttons on the top of the chassis to release the top cover. There is a large rectangular recess in the middle front of the top cover to help you push the cover away from you until it stops. You can then lift the top cover from the chassis to gain full access to the inside of the server.
2. Check the CPU (processor):
You should have one processor already installed into the system board. Each processor should have its own heatsink attached. See Section 5-5 for instructions on processor installation.
3. Verify the proper CPU core/bus ratio setting:
The CPU FSB speed is set with jumpers (JP 11, and JP12). (See Section 5-9 for details.) The CPU speed can also be changed by software control in BIOS (see CPU Speed Setting). The CPU Speed Setting will show you the actual CPU speed for each FSB speed option selected.
4. Check the system memory:
Your 5010H/5010E server system may have come with system memory already installed. Make sure all DIMMs are fully seated in their slots. For details on adding system memory, refer to Section 5-5.
5. Installing add-on cards:
If desired, you can install an add-on card to the system. See Section 5­7 for details on installing a PCI add-on card.

6. Check all cable connections and airflow:
Make sure all power and data cables are properly connected and not blocking the airflow. See Section 5-3 for details on cable connections. Also, check the air seals for damage. The air seals are located under the blower fan and beneath the frame cross section that separates the drive bay area from the motherboard area of the chassis. (*Note:
Make sure that the air seals are properly installed.)
2-6 Checking the Drive Bay Setup
Next, you should check to make sure the peripheral drives and the SCSI drives (5010H only) and SCA backplane have been properly installed and all connections have been made.
1. Accessing the drive bays:
All drives can be accessed from the front of the server. For servicing the CD-ROM and floppy drives, you will need to remove the top chassis cover. The SCSI disk drives can be installed and removed from the front of the chassis without removing the top chassis cover.
2. Installing a CD-ROM and floppy disk drives:
Refer to Section 6-4 if you need to reinstall a CD-ROM and/or floppy disk drive to the system.
3. Check the SCSI disk drives: (5010H)
Depending upon your system's configuration, your system may have one or two SCSI drives already installed. If you need to install SCSI drives, please refer to Section 6-4.
4. Check the airflow:
Airflow is provided by a 10-cm input fan and one (optional) 4-cm cooling fan. The system component layout was carefully designed to promote sufficient airflow through the small 1U rackmount space. Also note that all power and data cables have been routed in such a way that they do not block the airflow generated by the fans.

5. Supplying power to the system:
The last thing you must do is to provide input power to the system. Plug the power cord from the power supply unit into a high-quality power strip that offers protection from electrical noise and power surges. It is recommended that you use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
