Chapter 1: Introduction

1-3 Server Chassis Features

The SC512-200 is a mini 1U rackmount server platform confi guration. The following
is a general outline of the main features of the SC512-200 chassis.

System Power

When confi gured as a SuperServer 5016I-MR/5016I-MRF, the SC512-200 chassis
includes a single 200W power supply.

Serial ATA Subsystem

The SC512-200 chassis was designed to support one internal 3.5" Serial ATA hard
drive. This Serial ATA drive is not hot-swappable; power must be removed from the
system before installing or replacing.

Control Panel

The control panel on the SC512-200 provides important system monitoring and
control information. LEDs indicate power on, network activity , hard disk drive activity ,
overheat warning and fan failure. A main power button and a system reset button are
also included. Below the control panel are two USB ports for front side access.

Chapter 2

Server Installation

2-1 Overview

This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get your SuperServer 5016I­MR/5016I-MRF up and running. Following the steps in the order given should
enable you to have the system operational within a minimal amount of time. This
quick setup assumes that your server 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 specifi c components.

2-2 Unpacking the System

You should inspect the box the SuperServer 5016I-MR/5016I-MRF was shipped
in and note if it was damaged in any way. If the server itself shows damage, you
should fi le a damage claim with the carrier who delivered it.

Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold the 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. Read the Rack and Server Precautions
in the next section.

2-3 Preparing for Setup

The SuperServer 5016I-MR/5016I-MRF does not ship with a rack rail hardware
package as the system can be rack mounted without the use of rails. An optional
rack rail package is available if you wish to order from Supermicro. Follow the steps
in the order given to complete the installation process in a minimal amount of time.
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) and 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

2-1

SUPERSERVER 5016I-MR/5016I-MRF User's Manual

installation only in a Restricted Access Location (dedicated equipment rooms,
service closets and the like).

• This product is not suitable for use with visual display work place devices

acccording to §2 of the the German Ordinance for Work with Visual Display
Units.

2-4 Warnings and Precautions

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 si-

multaneously 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 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 SATA drives and power supply modules to cool before touch-

ing them.

2-2

Chapter 2: Server Installation

• Always keep the rack's front door and all panels and components on the servers

closed when not servicing to maintain proper cooling.

Rack Mounting Considerations

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.

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.).

2-3

SUPERSERVER 5016I-MR/5016I-MRF User's Manual

2-5 Installing the System into a Rack

(Rack hardware optional)

This section provides information on installing the SuperServer 5016I-MR/5016I­MRF into a rack unit. If the system has already been mounted into a rack, you can
skip ahead to Sections 2-5 and 2-6.

Basic Installation Procedure

The 5016I-MR/5016I-MRF server comes with two rack mounting brackets, which
are located on each side at the front of the chassis. To mount the system into a
rack, simply screw these brackets directly to the front of the rack (two screws for
each bracket).

Installing with Rackmount Kit

This section is only for customers that have the optional rack mount kit (CSE-PT8).
Each of these assemblies consist of two sections: an inner rail that secures to the
chassis and an outer rail that secures directly to the rack itself (see Figure 2-1).

This is a guideline for installing the unit into a rack with the optional rack kit. You
should also refer to the installation instructions that came with the rack unit you
are using. Be aware that there are a variety of rack units on the market, which may
mean the assembly procedure will differ slightly.

Figure 2-1. Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails

Warning! 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.

2-4

Chapter 2: Server Installation

Installing the Chassis Rails

The two rail sections must be detached from each other prior to installation: depress
the locking tab on the inner rail to release it from its locked position then pull the two
rails completely apart. Do this for both the left and right side rack rail assemblies.

Position the fi xed chassis rail sections you just removed along the side of the
chassis making sure the three screw holes line up.
left/right specifi c. 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: Both chassis rails have a locking tab, which serves two functions.
The fi rst 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.

Note that these two rails are

Figure 2-2. Installing Chassis Rails

Installing the Rack Rails

Determine where you want to place the server in the rack (see Rack and Server
Precautions in Section 2-3). Position the fi xed 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.

Warning: do not pick up the server with the front handles. They are de­signed to pull the system from a rack only.

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 rack. 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".

Figure 2-3. Installing the Server into a Rack: Basic

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.

Figure 2-4. Installing the Server into a Rack: w/ Rackmount Kit

Installing the Server into a Telco Rack

To install the server into a Telco type rack, use two L-shaped brackets on either side
of the chassis (four total). First, determine how far the server will extend out the front
of the rack. Larger chassis should be positioned to balance the weight between front
and back. If a bezel is included on your server, remove it. Then attach the two front
brackets to each side of the chassis, then the two rear brackets positioned with just
enough space to accommodate the width of the rack. Finish by sliding the chassis
into the rack and tightening the brackets to the rack. See Figure 2-5.

2-6 Checking the Motherboard Setup

After you install the 5016I-MR/5016I-MRF 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.

Accessing the Inside of the System (Figure 2-7)

1. Grasp the two handles on either side and pull the unit straight out until it
locks (you will hear a "click").

2. Remove the screws from the lips on either side of the chassis top cover,
located at the front of the chassis.

2-8

Chapter 2: Server Installation

Figure 2-6. Installing the Server into a Telco Rack: w/ Rackmount Kit

3. Next, depress the two buttons on the top of the chassis to release the top
cover while pushing 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.

Checking the Components

1. You may have one processor already installed into the system board. The
processor should have its own heatsink attached. See Chapter 5 for instruc­tions on processor installation.

2. 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.

3. If desired, you can install an add-on card to the system. See Chapter 5 for
details on installing a PCI add-on card.

4. Make sure all power and data cables are properly connected and not block­ing the airfl ow. See Chapter 5 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.

2-7 Checking the Drive Bay Setup

Next, you should check to make sure the peripheral drives and the Serial ATA drive
have been properly installed and all essential connections have been made.

Checking the Drives

1. For servicing the Serial ATA and DVD-ROM drives, you will need to remove
the top chassis cover. The Serial ATA disk drive is located at the front left side
of the chassis.

2. Refer to Chapter 6 if you need to reinstall a DVD-ROM drive to the system.

3. Depending upon your system's confi guration, your system may have a Serial
ATA hard drive already installed. If you need to install a Serial ATA hard drive,
please refer to the appropriate section in Chapter 6.

2-10

Chapter 2: Server Installation

Checking the Airfl ow

1. Airfl ow is provided by one 10-cm input fan. The system component layout
was carefully designed to promote suffi cient airfl ow through the small 1U
rackmount space.

2. 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.

Providing Power

1. 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.

2. It is recommended that you use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).

Chapter 5

Advanced Motherboard Setup

This chapter covers the steps required to install the X8SIL/X8SIL-F motherboard
into the chassis, connect the data and power cables and install add-on cards. All
jumpers and connections are described and a layout and quick reference chart are
included for your reference. Remember to completely close the chassis when you
have fi nished working with the motherboard to better cool and protect the system.

5-1 Handling the Motherboard

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 motherboard 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.

• Touch 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 motherboard, 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 motherboard.

Unpacking

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

SUPERSERVER 5016I-MR/5016I-MRF User's Manual

5-2 Motherboard Installation

This section explains the fi rst step of physically mounting the X8SIL/X8SIL-F into the
SC512-200B chassis. Following the steps in the order given will eliminate the most
common problems encountered in such an installation. To remove the serverboard,
follow the procedure in reverse order.

Installing to the Chassis

1. Access the inside of the system by removing the screws from the back lip of
the top cover of the chassis, then pull the cover off.

2. Make sure that the I/O ports on the serverboard align properly with their
respective holes in the I/O shield at the back of the chassis.

3. Carefully mount the serverboard to the serverboard tray by aligning the board
holes with the raised metal standoffs that are visible in the chassis.

4. Insert screws into all the mounting holes on your serverboard that line up
with the standoffs and tighten until snug (if you screw them in too tight, you
might strip the threads). Metal screws provide an electrical contact to the
serverboard ground to provide a continuous ground for the system.

5. Finish by replacing the top cover of the chassis.

Warning: To avoid damaging the motherboard and its components, do not apply
any force greater than 8 lbs. per square inch when installing a screw into a mount­ing hole.

5-3 Connecting Cables

Now that the motherboard 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 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

5-2

Chapter 5: Advanced Motherboard Setup

cables (with their locations noted) should be connected. (See the layout on page
5-9 for connector locations.)

• SATA drive data cable (I-SATA0 ~ I-SATA3)

• Control Panel cable (JF1)

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

Connecting Power Cables

The X8SIL/X8SIL-F has a 24-pin primary power supply connector (JPW1) for con­nection to the ATX power supply. In addition, an 8-pin processor power connector
(JPW2) must also be connected to your power supply. See Section 5-9 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 Chapter 5 for details and pin descriptions.

5-5 Processor and Heatsink Installation

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

label area of the fan.

Notes:

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

moving 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 motherboard 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.

Chapter 5: Advanced Motherboard Setup

Installing the LGA1156 Processor

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

2. Gently li ft t he load l ever to open t he load p late. Remove th e plate cap.

3. Use your thumb and your index fi nger to hold the CPU at the top center edge
and the bottom center edge of the CPU.

5-5

SUPERSERVER 5016I-MR/5016I-MRF User's Manual

4. Align the CPU key that is the semi-circle cutouts against the socket keys.
Once aligned, carefully lower the CPU straight down to the socket. (Do not
drop the CPU on the socket. Do not move the CPU horizontally or vertically.

Do not rub the CPU against the surface or against any pins of the socket to
avoid damage to the CPU or the socket.)

With the CPU inside the socket, inspect the four corners of the CPU to make
sure that the CPU is properly installed.

5. Use your thumb to gently push the load lever down to the lever lock.

Save the plastic PnP cap. The motherboard must be shipped with the PnP
cap properly installed to protect the CPU socket pins. Shipment without the
PnP cap properly installed will cause damage to the socket pins.

Warning: The CPU will only seat inside the socket in one direction. Make sure it is
properly inserted before closing the load plate. If it doesn't close properly, do not force
it as it may damage your CPU. Instead, open the load plate again and double-check
that the CPU is aligned properly.

Chapter 5: Advanced Motherboard Setup

Installing a Passive CPU 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 motherboard and the heatsink bracket underneath.

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

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

5-7 Installing PCI Add-On Cards

The SC512-200 chassis uses a riser card to accommodate one add-on card (CSE­RR1U-E16 for a PCI-E x16 card.

Installing a PCI Expansion Card

1. After powering down the system, remove the PCI slot shield.

2. Fully seat the riser card into the slot, pushing down with your thumbs evenly
on both sides of the card.

3. Install the expansion card into the riser card.

4. Finish by using a screw to secure the top of the card shield to the chassis.

5. The PCI slot shield protects the serverboard and its components from EMI
and aid in proper ventilation, so make sure it is always in place.

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 motherboard layout pages for
jumper locations.

Note: On a two-pin jumper, "Closed"
means the jumper is on both pins and
"Open" means the jumper is either on
only one pin or completely removed.

Super Doctor III

The Super Doctor III program is a Web-based management tool that supports re­mote management capability . It includes Remote and Local Management tools. The
local management is called SD III Client. The Super Doctor III program included
on the CD-ROM that came with your motherboard allows you to monitor the envi­ronment and operations of your system. Supero Doctor III displays crucial system
information such as CPU temperature, system voltages and fan status. See the
Figure below for a display of the Supero Doctor III interface.

Note: The default User Name and Password for SuperDoctor III is ADMIN / AD­MIN.

Note: When SuperDoctor III is fi rst installed, it adopts the temperature threshold
settings that have been set in BIOS. Any subsequent changes to these thresholds
must be made within Super Doctor, as the Super Doctor settings override the BIOS
settings. To set the BIOS temperature threshold settings again, you would fi rst need
to uninstall SuperDoctor III.

Advanced Chassis Setup

This chapter covers the steps required to install components and perform mainte­nance on the SC512C-260 chassis. For component installation, follow the steps in
the order given to eliminate the most common problems encountered. If some steps
are unnecessary, skip ahead to the step that follows.

Tools Required: The only tool you will need to install components and perform
maintainance is a Philips screwdriver.

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 discharge.

Precautions

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

• Touch 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 motherboard, 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 motherboard.

Unpacking

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

*Note: the dedicated IPMI LAN port is included on the 5016I-MRF only.

6-2 Control Panel

The control panel (located on the front of the chassis) must be connected to the
JF1 connector on the motherboard to provide you with system control buttons and
status indicators. These wires have been bundled together in a ribbon cable to
simplify the connection.

Connect the cable from JF1 on the motherboard to the control panel PCB (printed
circuit board). Make sure the red wire plugs into pin 1 on both headers. Pull all
excess cabling out of the airfl ow path. The LEDs inform you of system status. See
Chapter 3 for details on the LEDs and the control panel buttons. Details on JF1
can be found in Chapter 5.

Chapter 6: Advanced Chassis Setup

6-3 System Fans

One 10-cm blower fan provides the cooling for the SuperServer 5016I-MR/5016I­MRF. The chassis includes air seals under the blower fans and at the chassis cross
section, which separates the drive bay area from the motherboard area of the
chassis to promote better airfl ow. It is highly important that the air seal is properly
installed and making a good seal in order for the cooling air to circulate properly
through the chassis.

The fan can adjust its speed according to the heat level sensed in the system,
which results in more effi cient and quiter fan operation. Fan speed is controlled by
a setting BIOS (see Chapter 7).

System Fan Failure

If the fan fails, you will need to have it replaced with the same type. Contact your
vendor or Supermicro for information on replacement fans. The fan sits on two
mounting posts secured with screws. See Figure 6-3.

For installing or removing a DVD-ROM or Serial ATA drive, you will need to gain
access to the inside of the 5016I-MR/5016I-MRF by removing the top cover of the
chassis. The DVD-ROM drive is an optional component in the 5016I-MR/5016I­MRF.

Note: Only a "slim" DVD-ROM drive will fi t in the 5016I-MR/5016I-MRF.

SATA Drive Installation

The SATA drive is not hot-swappable, meaning system power must be turned off
before installing or removing.

1. First power down the system and unplug the AC power cord.

2. Remove the top cover of the chassis.

3. Unscrew the retention screw at the corner of the DVD-ROM module and the
four retention screws through the bottom of the chassis. Remove the DVD­ROM module/drive.

4. Remove the drive tray from the chassis.

5. To add a new SATA drive, install a drive into the tray with the printed circuit
board side facing down and so that the mounting holes align with those in the
tray. Secure the drive to the tray with the four screws.

6. Replace the DVD-ROM drive and the top cover when fi nished. See Figure
6-4.

DVD-ROM Drive Installation

The optional DVD-ROM drive must have a "slim" profi le to fi t into the 5016I-
MR/5016I-MRF. The drive is installed into a module that fi ts into place in the
chassis.

1. First power down the system and unplug the AC power cord.

2. Remove the top cover of the chassis.

3. Remove the retention screw at the rear right corner of the DVD-ROM module.

4. Remove the DVD-ROM module from the chassis.

6-5 Power Supply

The SuperServer 5016I-MR/5016I-MRF has a single 200 watt power supply. This
power supply has the capability of operating at 100 - 240 input volts. Power down
the system and then unplug the AC power cord to completely remove power from
the system before removing the power supply.

Power Supply Failure

If the power supply unit fails, the system will shut down and you will need to replace
the power supply unit. Replacement units can be ordered directly from Supermicro
(PWS-201-1H - see contact infomation in Chapter 1).

Replacing the Power Supply

1. Power down the system (if on) and unplug the power cord.

2. Grasp the two handles on either side and pull the unit straight out until it
locks (you will hear a "click").

3. Depress the two buttons on the top of the chassis to release the top cover
and push it away from you. You can then lift the top cover from the chassis to
gain full access to the inside of the server.

4. To remove the failed power unit, remove the two screws on the back of the
power supply and a third from the front of the power supply, which secures
it to the bottom of the chassis. You can then lift the unit straight out of the
chassis.

5. Replace the failed unit with another unit of the same wattage. It is highly
recommended to replace it with the exact same power supply.

6. Carefully insert the new unit into position in the chassis and secure it with the
two screws at the rear of the unit and the third at the front.

7. Reconnect the power cord, replace the chassis top cover and push the unit
back into the rack.

8. Finish by depressing the power button on the front of the system.

BIOS

7-1 Introduction

This chapter describes the AMI BIOS Setup Utility for the X8SIL/X8SIL-F. The AMI
ROM BIOS is stored in a Flash EEPROM and can be easily updated. This chapter
describes the basic navigation of the AMI BIOS Setup Utility setup screens.

Note: For instructions on BIOS recovery, please refer to the instruction
guide posted at http://www.supermicro.com/support/manuals/.

Starting BIOS Setup Utility

To enter the AMI BIOS Setup Utility screens, press the <Delete> key while the
system is booting up.

Note: In most cases, the <Delete> key is used to invoke the AMI BIOS
setup screen. There are a few cases when other keys are used, such as
<F1>, <F2>, etc.

Each main BIOS menu option is described in this manual. The Main BIOS setup
menu screen has two main frames. The left frame displays all the options that can
be confi gured. Grayed-out options cannot be confi gured. Options in blue can be
confi gured by the user. The right frame displays the key legend. Above the key
legend is an area reserved for a text message. When an option is selected in the
left frame, it is highlighted in white. Often a text message will accompany it. (Note:
the AMI BIOS has default text messages built in. Supermicro retains the option to
include, omit, or change any of these text messages.)

The AMI BIOS Setup Utility uses a key-based navigation system called "hot keys".
Most of the AMI BIOS setup utility "hot keys" can be used at any time during the
setup navigation process. These keys include <F1>, <F10>, <Enter>, <ESC>, ar­row keys, etc.

Note: Options printed in Bold are default settings.

How To Change the Confi guration Data

The confi guration data that determines the system parameters may be changed by
entering the AMI BIOS Setup utility. This Setup utility can be accessed by pressing
<Del> at the appropriate time during system boot.

7-1

Warning: Any temperature that exceeds the CPU threshold temperature predefi ned
by the CPU manufacturer may result in CPU overheat or system instability. When the
CPU temperature reaches this predefi ned threshold, the CPU and system cooling fans
will run at full speed.

The options are:

• The Early Alarm: Select this setting if you want the CPU overheat alarm (includ-

ing the LED and the buzzer) to be triggered as soon as the CPU temperature
reaches the CPU overheat threshold as predefi ned by the CPU manufacturer.

• The Default Alarm: Select this setting if you want the CPU overheat alarm

(including the LED and the buzzer) to be triggered when the CPU temperature

CPU Temperature

The CPU Temperature feature will display the CPU temperature status as detected
by the BIOS:

o

C).

Medium – The processor is running warmer. This is a ‘precautionary’ level and
generally means that there may be factors contributing to this condition, but the CPU
is still within its normal operating state and below the CPU ‘Temperature Tolerance’.
The motherboard fans and CPU will run normally as confi gured in the BIOS. The
fans may adjust to a faster speed depending on the Fan Speed Control settings.

7-14

Chapter 7: BIOS

User intervention: No action is required. However, consider checking the CPU
fans and the chassis ventilation for blockage.

High – The processor is running hot. This is a ‘caution’ level since the CPU’s ‘Tem­perature Tolerance’ has been reached (or has been exceeded) and may activate
an overheat alarm:

The Default Alarm – the Overheat LED and system buzzer will activate if the High
condition continues for some time after it is reached. The CPU fan will run at full
speed to bring the CPU temperature down. If the CPU temperature still increases
even with the CPU fan running at full speed, the system buzzer will activate and
the Overheat LED will turn on.

The Early Alarm – the Overheat LED and system buzzer will be activated exactly
when the High level is reached. The CPU fan will run at full speed to bring the
CPU temperature down.

Note: In both the alarms above, please take immediate action as shown below.
See CPU Overheat Alarm to modify the above alarm settings.

User intervention: If the system buzzer and Overheat LED has activated, take
action immediately by checking the system fans, chassis ventilation and room
temperature to correct any problems. Note: the system may shut down if it con­tinues for a long period to prevent damage to the CPU.

Notes: The CPU thermal technology that reports absolute temperatures
(Celsius/Fahrenheit) has been upgraded to a more advanced feature by Intel
in its newer processors. The basic concept is that each CPU is embedded
by a unique temperature information that the motherboard can read. This
‘Temperature Threshold’ or ‘Temperature Tolerance’ has been assigned at
the factory and is the baseline by which the motherboard takes action during
different CPU temperature conditions (i.e., by increasing CPU Fan speed,
triggering the Overheat Alarm, etc). Since CPUs can have different ‘Tem­perature Tolerances’, the installed CPU can now send its ‘T emperature Toler­ance’ to the motherboard resulting in better CPU thermal management.

Supermicro has leveraged this feature by assigning a temperature status to
certain thermal conditions in the processor (Low, Medium and High). This
makes it easier for the user to understand the CPU’s temperature status,
rather than by just simply seeing a temperature reading (i.e., 25

o

C).

The information provided above is for your reference only. For more information on
thermal management, please refer to Intel’s Web site at www.Intel.com.

Fan Speed Control Modes

This feature allows the user to decide how the system controls the speeds of the
