SUPERSERVER 7046GT-TRF Series User's Manual

1-3 Server Chassis Features

The following is a general outline of the main features of the SC747TQ-R1400B
server chassis.

System Power

Each SC747 chassis model includes a Gold level High-effi ciency redundant (1+1)
power supply (93%), rated at 1400 Watts. In the unlikely event your power supply
fails, replacement is simple and can be done without tools. The AC power cord
should be removed from the system before servicing or replacing the power supply.
See Chapter 6 for details.

Mounting Rails (optional)

The SC747 can be placed in a rack for secure storage and use. To setup your rack,
follow the step-by-step instructions included in this manual in chapter 2.

Hard Drive/Drive Bays

The SC747 Chassis features eight hot-swappable slots for SATA drives. Once set
up correctly, these drives can be removed without powering down the server.

The SC747 Chassis provides three 5.25” peripheral drive bays one 3.5" fi xed drive
bay for fl oppy drives, DVD-ROM/CD-ROM Drives, or additional hard drives.

Front Control Panel

The control panel on the server provides you with system monitoring and control.
LEDs indicate system power, HDD activity, network activity, system overheat, UID
and power supply failure. A main power button and a system reset button are also
included.

Cooling System

The SC747 chassis accepts four system fans and two rear exhaust fans. System
fans are powered from the serverboard. These fans are 4U high and are powered
by 4-pin connectors.

Backplane

Each SC747 chassis comes with a 4U backplane. Depending on your order, your
backplane will accept SA T A. For more information regarding compatible backplanes,
view the appendices found at the end of this manual. In addition, visit our Web site
for the latest information: http://www.supermicro.com.

1-5

Chapter 1: Introduction

1-4 Advanced Power Management (for -F Models Only)

Intel® Intelligent Power Node Manager (NM)

The Intel® Intelligent Power Node Manager (IPNM) provides your system with
real-time thermal control and power management for maximum energy effi ciency.
Although IPNM Specifi cation Version 1.5 is supported by the BMC (Baseboard
Management Controller), your system must also have IPNM-compatible
Manageability Engine (ME) fi rmware installed to use this feature.

Manageability Engine (ME)

The Manageability Engine, which is an ARC controller embedded in the IOH (I/O
Hub), provides Server Platform Services (SPS) to your system. The services
provided by SPS are different from those proveded by the ME on client platforms.

1-5 GPU Subsystem

Some models in the SuperServer 7046GT-TRF series use are a parallel processing
server using multiple-GPU cards. These multiple-GPU servers include four NVIDIA®
Tesla™ GPUs with multiple x16 non-blocking native Gen2 PCI-Express connectivity
that places these systems at the forefront of today's GPU computing solutions. See
page 1-1 for information on which GPU cards are available for each SuperServer
7046GT-TRF series server.

Refer to the NVIDIA web site (www.nvidia.com) for details on Tesla GPUs.

Notes:

1. The GPUs process complex image calculations and then route the data out
through the VGA port on the serverboard.

2. Each GPU includes an active heatsink. Its fans work independently of the system
fans and cooling parameters.

should fi le a damage claim with the carrier who delivered it.

Decide on a suitable location for setting up and operating the SuperServer
7046GT-TRF series server. It should be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is
well ventilated. Avoid areas where heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic fi elds
are generated. You will also need it placed near a grounded power outlet.

• Review the electrical and general safety precautions in Chapter 4.

• 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 power supply units and Serial AT A drives to cool before touching them.

• To maintain proper cooling, always keep all chassis panels closed when not

being serviced.

2-3 Setting Up the System

You should fi rst open the left side panel (when facing the front of the chassis) to
make sure the motherboard is properly installed and all connections have been
made.

Warning: Only qualifi ed service technicians should access the inside of the system.
Except for short periods of time, do NOT operate the system without the cover in place.
The chassis cover must be in place to allow proper airfl ow and prevent overheating.

2-2

SUPERSERVER 7046GT-TRF Series User's Manual

Checking the Motherboard Setup

1. Accessing the inside of the system: Begin by disconnecting the chassis from
any power source. (A) Lift up and back on the main cover handle, which
secures the cover to the chassis. (B) Lift the main cover off of the chassis.
See Chapter 5 for details on Chassis covers and how to remove them.

2. Check the CPU (processor): You may have a processor already installed into
the system board. The processor should have its own heatsink attached. See
Chapter 5 for instructions on processor installation.

3. Check the system memory: Your 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 Chapter 5.

4. Installing add-on cards: If desired, you can install up to nine add-on cards to
the system. See Chapter 5 for details on installing PCI- add-on cards.

Note: The SuperServer 7046GT -TRF series server may contain four GPU add-on
card modules that occupy many of these add-on card expansion slots.

5. Check all cable connections and airfl ow: Make sure all power and data cables
are properly connected and not blocking the airfl ow. See Chapter 5 for details
on cable connections.

Checking the Drive Bay Setup

Next, you should check to make sure the peripheral drives and the SA T A drives have
been properly installed and all essential connections have been made.

1. Accessing the peripheral drive bays: To install a component to either of the
two 5.25" drive bays, you will need to remove the side chassis cover. See the
installation and removal sections for the peripheral drives in Chapter 6.

2. Check the SATA disk drives: Depending upon your system's confi guration,
your system may have up to four SATA drives already installed. If you need
to install or remove an SATA drive, please refer to the appropriate section in
Chapter 6.

3. Check the airfl ow: Cooling air is provided by the chassis fan and the power
supply fan. The system component layout was carefully designed to promote
suffi cient airfl ow throughout the chassis. Also note that all power and data
cables have been routed in such a way that they do not block the airfl ow
generated by the fan. Please keep this in mind when rerouting or adding/
removing cables.

Chapter 2: Server Installation

2-3

4. 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).

2-4 Preparing for Rack Mounting Setup

The box your chassis 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. Please read this section in its entirety before you begin the
installation procedure outlined in the sections that follow.

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

suffi cient airfl ow and ease in servicing.

• This product is for installation only in a Restricted Access Location (dedicated

equipment rooms, service closets and the like).

SUPERSERVER 7046GT-TRF Series User's Manual

2-5 Warnings and Precautions!

Warning! To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a

rack, you must take special precautions to ensure that the system remains stable.
The following guidelines are provided to ensure your safety:

• This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in

the rack.

• When mounting this unit in a partially fi lled rack, load the rack from the bottom

to the top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.

• If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before

mounting or servicing the unit in the rack.

Rack Precautions

• Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully extended to

the fl oor 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.

General Server Precautions

• Review the electrical and general safety precautions that came with the

components you are adding to your chassis.

• Determine the placement of each component in the rack before you install the

rails.

• Install the heaviest server components on the bottom of the rack fi rst, 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 hard drives and power supply modules 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.

Chapter 2: Server Installation

2-5

Rack Mounting Considerations

Warning: Do not pick up the server with the front handles. They are

designed to pull the system from a rack only.

Stability Hazard: The rack stabilizing mechanism must be in place, or the
rack must be bolted to the fl oor before you slide the unit out for servicing. Failure
to stabilize the rack can cause the rack to tip over.

Warning: When initially installing the server to a rack, test that the rail locking tabs
engage to prevent the server from being overextended. Have a rack lift in place as
a precaution in case the test fails.

Warning: In any instance of pulling the system from the rack, always use a rack
lift and follow all associated safety precautions.

Ambient Operating Temperature

If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the ambient operating
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than the ambient temperature
of the room. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment
in an environment compatible with the manufacturer’s maximum rated ambient
temperature (Tmra).

Reduced Airfl ow

Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that the amount of airfl ow required
for safe operation is not compromised.

Mechanical Loading

Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that a hazardous condition does not
arise due to uneven mechanical loading.

Circuit Overloading

Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the power
supply circuitry and the effect that any possible overloading of circuits might have
on overcurrent protection and power supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of
equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.

2-6

SUPERSERVER 7046GT-TRF Series User's Manual

Reliable Ground

A reliable ground must be maintained at all times. To ensure this, the rack
itself should be grounded. Particular attention should be given to power supply
connections other than the direct connections to the branch circuit (i.e. the use of
power strips, etc.).

2-5 Installing the Chassis onto a Rack

This section provides information on installing the SC747 chassis into a rack unit

Chapter 5

Advanced Serverboard Setup

This chapter covers the steps required to install the X8DTG-QF serverboard into the
chassis, connect the data and power cables and install add-on cards. All serverboard
jumpers and connections are also described. A layout and quick reference chart
are included in this chapter for your reference. Remember to completely close the
chassis when you have fi nished working with the serverboard to better cool and
protect the system.

5-1 Handling the Serverboard

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic com ponents. To prevent
damage to any printed circuit boards (PCBs), it is important to handle them very
carefully (see previous chapter). To prevent the serverboard from bending, keep
one hand under the center of the board to support it when handling. The following
measures are generally suffi cient to protect your equipment from electric static
discharge.

Precautions

• Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent Electrostatic Discharge (ESD).

• T ouch a grounded metal object before removing any board from its antistatic bag.

• Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral chips,

memory modules or gold contacts.

• When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.

• Put the serverboard, add-on cards and peripherals back into their antistatic

bags when not in use.

• For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides excellent

conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting fasteners and
the serverboard.

Unpacking

The serverboard is shipped in antistatic packaging to avoid electrical static
discharge. When unpacking the board, make sure the person handling it is static
protected.

5-2

SUPERSERVER 7046GT-TRF Series User's Manual

5-2 Connecting Cables

Now that the serverboard is installed, the next step is to connect the cables to the
board. These include the data (ribbon) cables for the peripherals and control panel
and the power cables.

Connecting Data Cables

The ribbon cables used to transfer data from the peripheral devices have been
carefully routed to prevent them from blocking the fl ow of cooling air that moves
through the system from front to back. If you need to disconnect any of these cables,
you should take care to keep them routed as they were originally after reconnecting
them (make sure the red wires connect to the pin 1 locations). The following data
cables (with their locations noted) should be connected. (See the layout on page
5-9 for connector locations.)

• SATA drive data cables (SATA0 ~ SATA5 )

• SGPIO cable (T-SGP101, TSGPIO2)

• Control Panel cable (JF1)

Important! Make sure the the cables do not come into contact with the fans.

Connecting Power Cables

The X8DTG-QF has a 24-pin proprietary power supply connector (JPW1) for
connection to the ATX power supply. In addition, there are two 8-pin secondary
power connectors (JPW2, JPW3) that also must be connected to your power supply .
See Section 5-7 for power connector pin defi nitions.

Connecting the Control Panel

JF1 contains header pins for various front control panel connectors. See Figure 5-1
for the pin locations of the various front control panel buttons and LED indicators.

All JF1 wires have been bundled into a single ribbon cable to simplify this
connection. Make sure the red wire plugs into pin 1 as marked on the board. The
other end connects to the Control Panel PCB board, located just behind the system
status LEDs on the chassis. See below for details and pin descriptions.

5-4 Installing the Processor and Heatsink

Warning: Avoid placing direct pressure to the top of the processor package. Always

remove the power cord fi rst before adding, removing or changing any hardware
components.

Notes:

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

removing or changing any hardware components. Make sure that you install 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-certifi ed multi-

directional heatsink only.

• Make sure to install the serverboard into the chassis before you install the CPU

heatsinks.

• When receiving a serverboard without a processor pre-installed, make sure that

the plastic CPU socket cap is in place and none of the socket pins are bent;
otherwise, contact your retailer immediately.

• Refer to the Sup ermi cro web s ite for upd ates on CPU su ppor t.

1. Press the socket clip to release
the load plate, which covers
the CPU socket, from its locked

Installing the Heatsink

1. Do not apply any thermal grease
to the heatsink or the CPU die; the
required amount has already been
applied.

2. Place the heatsink on top of the
CPU so that the four mounting
holes are aligned with those on the
retention mechanism.

3. Screw in two diagonal screws (i.e.
the #1 and the #2 screws) until
just snug (do not over-tighten the
screws, which may damage the
CPU.)

4. Finish the installation by fully
tightening all four screws.

Installation and Removal of the Heatsink

Uninstalling the Heatsink

Warning: We do not recommend removing the CPU or the heatsink. However, if you
do need to uninstall the heatsink, please follow these instructions to avoid damaging
the CPU or the CPU socket.

5-5 Installing Memory

CAUTION! Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM modules to

prevent any possible damage.

Memory Support

The X8DTG-QF supports up to 192 GB of registered ECC or up to 48 GB of
unbuffered ECC/non-ECC DDR3 1333/1066/800 MHz speed SDRAM in twelve (12)
DIMM slots. See the following table for memory installation.

Notes: The X8DTG-QF supports 1 GB, 2 GB, 4 GB, 8 GB and 16 GB of registered
ECC DIMMs. However, with unbuffered ECC/non-ECC memory only 4 GB is the
maximum DIMM size that can be supported per slot.

Memory speed support is dependent on the type of CPU used on the board.

Installing Memory Modules

1. Insert the desired number of DIMMs into the memory slots, starting with
P1-DIMM 1A. For best memory performance, please install memory modules
of the same type and same speed on the memory slots as indicated on the
tables below.

2. Insert each DIMM module vertically into its slot. Pay attention to the notch
along the bottom of the module to avoid installing incorrectly (see Figure 5-6).

3. Gently press down on the DIMM module until it snaps into place in the slot.
Repeat for all modules.

Note: For the latest CPU/memory updates, please refer to our website at

http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard.

To Install: Insert module
vertically and press down
until it snaps into place.
Pay attention to the align­ment notch at the bottom.

To Remove:

Use your thumbs to gently
push the release tabs near
both ends of the module.
This should release it from
the slot.

5-8 Jumper Settings

Explanation of Jumpers

To modify the operation of the
motherboard, 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 identifi ed with a
square solder pad on the printed circuit
board. See the diagram at right for
an example of jumping pins 1 and 2.
Refer to the motherboard layout page
for jumper locations.

Note: On two-pin jumpers, "Closed"
means the jumper is on and "Open"
means the jumper is off the pins.

CMOS Clear

JBT1 is used to clear CMOS, which will also clear any passwords. Instead of pins,
this jumper consists of contact pads to prevent accidentally clearing the contents
of CMOS.

To Clear CMOS

1. First power down the system and unplug the power cord(s). It is also
recommended that you remove the onboard battery from the serverboard.

2. With the power disconnected, short the CMOS pads with a metal object such
as a small screwdriver.

3. Remove the screwdriver (or shorting device).

4. Reconnect the power cord(s) and power on the system.

Note 1. For an ATX power supply, you must completely shut down the system,
remove the AC power cord, and then short JBT1 to clear CMOS.

Note 2. Be sure to remove the onboard CMOS Battery before you short JBT1 to
clear CMOS.

Note 3. Clearing CMOS will also clear all passwords.
Note 4: Do not use the PW_ON connector to clear CMOS.

6-1 Static-Sensitive Devices

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic com ponents. To prevent
damage to any printed circuit boards (PCBs), it is important to handle them very
carefully.

The following measures are generally suffi cient to protect your equipment from
ESD damage:

Precautions

• Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.

• T ouch a grounded metal object before removing any board from its antistatic bag.

• Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral chips,

memory modules or gold contacts.

• When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.

• Put the serverboard, add-on cards and peripherals back into their antistatic

bags when not in use.

• For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides excellent

conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting fasteners and
the serverboard.

6-2 Control Panel

The control panel (located on the front of the chassis) must be connected to the
JF1 connector on the serverboard to provide you with system status indications. A
ribbon cable has bundled these wires together to simplify the connection. Connect
the cable from JF1 on the serverboard to the appropriate header on the Control
Panel PCB (printed circuit board). Make sure the red wire plugs into pin 1 on both
connectors. Pull all excess cabling out of the airfl ow path.

The control panel LEDs inform you of system status. See "Chapter 3: System
Interface" for details on the LEDs and the control panel buttons. Details on JF1 can
be found in "Chapter 5: Advanced Serverboard Installation."

6-3 System Cooling

Six heavy-duty fans provide cooling for the chassis. Four fans are located in the
mid-section of the chassis with two fans in the rear. These fans circulate air through
the chassis as a means of lowering the chassis internal temperature.

The fans come pre-installed to the chassis. Each fan is hot-swappable and can be
replaced without removing any connections.

Chapter 6: Advanced Chassis Setup

6-3

System Fan Failure

Fan speed is controlled by system temperature via a BIOS setting. If a fan fails, the
remaining fans will ramp up to full speed. Replace any failed fan at your earliest
convenience with the same type and model (the system can continue to run with
a failed fan).

Replacing System Fans

The SC747 chassis contains two types of system fans: mid-system fans and rear
system fans.

Replacing Mid-System Fans

1. Determine which fan has failed. Because the fans are hot-swappable, the
chassis does not need to be powered-down.

2. Press the fan release tab and lift the failed fan from the chassis. Mid fans
must be pulled straight out of the chassis (see Figure 6-3).

3. Place the new fan into the vacant space in the housing while making sure
the arrows on the top of the fan (indicating air direction) point in the same
direction as the arrows on the other fans. As soon as the fan is connected, it
will begin working.
