Getting Started

This chapter describes ho w to set up the server and to hav e it ready
for use.

Checking the items included with the server

Check the items in the package according to the accompanying
Read Me First Addendum.
If any of the items is missing or damaged, please contact your
T oshi ba dealer as soon as possible.

Getting Started

Checking the items included with the server

NOTE: The Read Me First Addendum provides a listing of all
standard accessories and their respective quantities.
If you purchased the server together with an optional internal
device, the optional device will also be incorporated with the
standard accessories listed. However, in such a case it is
possible that the quantities of some accessories, e.g., brack­ets, do not agree with those specified on the list, this is
because they have already been used to fix the optional inter­nal device.
If in contrast an expansion slot panel etc. has been removed
from the server in order to install an optional device instead,
the expansion slot panel removed comes with the server as
an accessory.

NOTE: When a STS indicator is lit amber, the corresponding
hard disk drive may be faulty. If it is found to be defective,
replace it. If your system is configured in redundancy
(RAID1), you can replace the faulty drive without interrupting
the system operation.
Shock and vibration might damage hard disk drives, causing
the loss or corruption of the data and programs recorded on
them. So always handle them carefully.

Installing and replacing a hard disk drive requires special
techniques and knowledge. So instead of installing or replac­ing it yourself, ask an authorized MAGNIA service provider
for assistance.

An error performed during installation or replacement, espe­cially when the system is running, might result in a system
failure and/or the corruption or loss of important data and pro­grams.

21

Keep hard disk drives free from shock and vibration, espe­cially when they are on. Even if the STS indicator is off, its
magnetic head remains in the data area and, if a shock is
given, it might destruct the data area.

When the server is switched off, the magnetic head of each
hard disk drive automatically retracts. Note that it takes about
30 seconds for a hard disk drive to stop completely.

Setup of disk array (RAID)

Setup of disk array (RAID)

When an IDE RAID or RAID controller is additionally installed
in the system after purchase, or if it is built in the ser ver before
delivery, it is required to set the disk array (RAID).
When “Simple setup” is selected from the “Selection of RAID
configuration” during e xecution of the “Setup” of the Toshiba
Server Setup Tool, the RAID controller utilities have no need of
operation because the RAID is configured by minimum setting in
this case. When “Detailed setup” or “No setup” is selected, or the
RAID is to be configured without use of the T oshiba Server Setup
T ool, it is required to set up the RAID.
See “MegaRAID Software Guide.” or “MegaRAID IDE Setup”

If the operating system (OS) is installed in the serv er in which a
RAID controller or IDE RAID is built in, be sure to install a Po wer
Console Plus and Service for RAID controller or MegaRAID con­figuration Console for IDE RAID, that is a RAID monitor and
control utility after installation of the OS (for Windows NT or
Windo ws 2000).

NOTE: When installing Windows NT or Windows 2000 using
the Toshiba Server Setup Tool, the Power Console Plus and

Switching off the server

Switching off the server

The method for switching off the serv er va ries depending on the
operating system used. Check the operating system and switch the
server off using the normal method or use the automatic shutdo wn
function.
Every time the server is to be switched of f, use only one of the
methods mentioned above. Using both methods simultaneously,
will cause the server to fail during its norm al shutdo wn operation.

Normal shutdown

If no automatic shutdown function is install ed in the operating sys­tem, switch the server of f by using the normal shutdo wn procedure
as follows:

1 Prepare the server system for switching it of f b y the normal

method.
Method to shut down the operating system

See “User’ s Manual for the Operating System.”

2 Press the power/sleep b utton.

Using the automatic shutdown function

The automatic shutdown function is only a v ailable when the
server runs under the W indo ws NT or W indo ws 2000 operating
system. If the power/sleep b utton is pressed and held for more than
4 seconds on another operating system, the server is immediately
switched off without the preliminary process necessary for shut­down. In this case the exclusi v e automatic shutdo wn softw are is
not installed in the Wi ndows NT or Windows 2000 operating sys­tem, no automatic shutdown operation is ex ecuted and the serv er
is switched off wi thout the preli minary process as t he po wer/sleep
button is pressed.

When the automatic shutdown function is not used, be sure to exe­cute the preliminary process required for quitting the operating
system before pressing the power/sleep b utton.

Getting Started

Switching off the server

Switch the server off using the automati c shutdown funct ion
according to the following procedure:

1 Execute the specified shut down process for the application

software running on the operating system.Be sure to sav e the
data used on the application software before quitting.

NOTE: As the server is switched off by the automatic shut­down function or ACPI function, the application software cur­rently in use is closed and unsaved data is deleted. The pro­gram that is not quit normally will show as a log error or Dr.
Watson error.
If the automatic shutdown application is installed on a Win­dows 2000-based computer, pressing the power/sleep button
always shuts down the computer, regardless of the setting of
the ”Power Options” in ”Control Panel.”

2 Press the power/sleep b utton to turn of f the serv er.

43

Hold the power/sleep button 4 seconds or more. If the po wer/
sleep button is released within 4 seconds, the shutdo wn opera­tion is disturbed in the middle of the process and the server
fails in shutdown.

When the operating system is Windo ws 2000, the system
becomes ACPI sleep mode.

3 Make sure that the power indicator ( ) is amber and the

server operation is stopped normally. If the server fails in the
normal stop operation, execute the forced stopping operat ion.

See “ Abnormal syste m shutdo wn” on page 46.

Notes on using of the automatic shutdown function

Hints on operation of the power/sleep button

If the power/sleep b utton is used during the operation of the oper­ating system, during the shutdown operation or if the po wer/sleep
button is operated in a wrong way, it may cause malfunction of the
server .
Follow the instruct ions stated belo w to ensure steady opera tion of
the system:

When starting up Windo ws NT , do not operate the power/sleep

c

button until the log-on dialog “Welcome” appears on the
screen following the “Selection of opera ting system” menu.

After the shutdown operation starts, do not operat e the power/

c

sleep button until the “It is now safe to turn of f your computer”
dialog appears on the screen.

After the “Restart” command is selected, do not operate the

c

power/sleep b utton.
Do not press the power/sleep b utton again without allo wing

c

some time to pass.

Getting Started

Switching off the server

45

Logon by a user without shutdown rights

If an unauthorized user logs on, the automatic shutdown function
with the power/sleep b utton is disabled.

If the server enters into this mode, log on to the serv er as the sys­tem administrator and then carry out the normal manual shutdown
operation and switch of f the po wer. The automatic shutdown func­tion recovers as the system is res tarted.

You can avoid this diff iculty by:

Operating the power/sleep b utton after log-of f operat ion.

c

Prohibit “Guest” log-ons or let all users including “Guests”

c

have the right to shut do wn the serv er.

The application in operation

An application in operation is forcedly closed by the shutdo wn
operation with the power/sleep b utton. When shutting do wn the
server in this way, the data in use will not be saved after shutdo wn.

Load to the system

If the server is shut do wn by the po wer/sleep b utton operation
when the system is heavily loaded, the shutdo wn operation does
not start immediately after the po wer/sleep b utton is released. The
waiting time depends on the degree of system load. In normal cir­cumstances this takes about 30 seconds to 1 minute to start the
shutdown operation. In this case, wait a while .

Getting Started

46

Switching off the server

Abnormal system shutdown

If the server is not shutdo wn using the nor mal method, the system
can be forcibly stopped. Howe ver, this operation deletes unsaved
data.
T o shut down the system forcibly , press the reset but ton.

NOTE: If the server was forcibly shutdown, unplug the power
cable from the AC outlet once and plug it in again.

Installing and Removing Hardware

This chapter explains the dif ferent methods used to install and
remove optional de vices.

Before starting operation

Install optional devices before sett ing up the server.

48

Before starting operation

WARNING: When installing an optional device, be sure to
use genuine Toshiba parts or those recommended by
To s h i b a .
If any other device is used, it may result in a fire hazard.
For more information about optional devices, consult an
authorized MAGNIA service provider.

Do not touch any part irrelevant to the installation work.
The server contains many high-tension parts, which if
touched may cause an electric shock.

While carrying out installation work on the peripheral unit,
take extra care not to drop any removed screws in to the
equipment. During installation always follow the instructions.
carefully. Tightly fasten every screw. If a screw drops inside
the equipment, it may result in a fire hazard.

Installing and Removing Hardware

Before starting oper ation

49

CAUTION: When installing/removing optional devices, it is
recommended to wear gloves, due to the sharp-edges
located inside of the server.

NOTE: When installing an optional device, carefully follow the
instructions according to the optional device.

Before installing or removing an optional device, always dis­connect the power cable from the server.

Before installing or removing optional devices carefully read
the instructions that came with the device.

When installing/removing components, always work in an
environment which has low humidity, minimal dust, and no
direct sunshine.

50

Installing and Removing Hardware

Before starting oper ation

The installation or removal of an optional device should be
carried out at ambient temperatures of 50 to 95°F (10 to
35°C) for Micro Tower Types, or 50 to 89° F (10 to 32° C) for
Rack Types, and at ambient humidity of 30 to 80%. Avoid a
place where the temperature may change sharply because it
may cause condensation inside the equipment.

Don't install/remove an optional device in a static environ­ment (e.g. on a carpet). Electronic parts easily become defec­tive if they are exposed to electrostatic discharge.

Proceed with the installing/removing process in the correct
order.

Different types of screws are used or need to be used.

Always restore screws to their original position.

When the system falls into malfunction or failure, consult our
authorized MAGNIA service provider.

After installing/removing components, always replace the
server panels before switching the server back on.

When tightening a screw, always use the correct fitting screw­driver. An incorrect fitting screwdriver may damage the screw
head.

Scre w head and scr ewdriver

You may have to remove cable (s), when installing optional
devices. In this case, check the relative position between the
unit and cables before disconnecting the cables for reference.

Installing and Removing Hardware

Before starting oper ation

When connecting a cable to the server, pay careful attention
to the shape of the connector. If a incorrect connector is forc­ibly connected, it may bend or damage the connector pins. If
the cable connector has thumb screws for fastening, tighten
them to secure the connection.

Carefully handle options whose boards are not covered such
as expansion cards because they are easily affected by static
electricity. When holding an option whose board is exposed,
hold it on the edges carefully.

After taking a device out of the antistatic package, put it hori­zontally with the components side up on a grounded plane
free from static electricity. After taking out a device, keep the
antistatic packing case for future use. Don't slide the server
for relocation.

The user is not permitted to remove the server from the rack.
If it is hard to install/remove an optional device as the server
is mounted on the rack, ask an authorized MAGNIA service
provider to do the work.

51

Special knowledge and technique are required for installing
an optional device to the server of the Rack Type. If you have
no experience in installing an optional device in the Rack
Type or you consider the task difficult, consult an authorized
MAGNIA service provider about installation.

Sliding the server out of or into the rack

When installing an optional device to a Rack Type server, follo w
the instructions mentioned.

WARNING: Don't slide more than two Rack Mount Trays out
of the rack at the same time. If two or more units are pulled
out of the rack, the rack may become unstable and topple
down.

Don't put any weight on the server that is pulled out of the
rack and don't apply an excessive load to it continuously
because a load may cause the rail to be damaged or the rack
to be unstable. If the rack topples over, persons in close prox­imity may be injured.

When working on the higher section of the rack, don't put a
ladder directly on the rack or the server to prevent the rail,
rack and server from getting damaged or unstable. If the rack
topples over, persons in close proximity may be injured.

When working on the higher section of the rack, do not use a
chair with casters, because it is unstable.

When turning the claw screws of the Rack Mount Tray,
remove the front panel because you may catch your fingers.

NOTE: Before sliding the server out of the rack, carefully
ensure that no cables are caught in the rail preventing the
server from being removed.
