Information Update 1-3

This document provides updated information on the following topics for your system:

• Power rating

• NIC issues

• SCSI issues and features

• RAID controllers

•Novell

NetWare

6.0

•RedHat

Linux

• Compatibility considerations

Power Rating

100–240 VAC, 50–60 Hz, 11.4 A

200–240 VAC, 50–60 Hz, 5.0 A

NIC Issues

Intel®PRO/100 and PRO/1000 NIC Identification

The Intel PROSet utility includes a feature that causes Intel embedded NIC LEDs to blink for

identification purposes. The identification feature works for any Intel add-in NICs installed in this

system. However, because the system does not contain the hardware required to support the

identification feature for embedded NICs, the feature is unavailable for the system’s Intel PRO/100

and PRO/1000 embedded NICs.

SCSI Issues and Features

Mixed-Mode SCSI Configuration Limitation

Mixed-mode configurations (channel A set to ROMB and channel B set to SCSI) use the RAID

firmware rather than the SCSI firmware. In RAID mode, you cannot change the settings for SCSI

tape drives; these settings are automatically negotiated with the SCSI devices.

SCSI Setup Features

The SCSI option ROM allows you to set up to four channels to be included in the boot order.

Select the four channels from within the SCSI Configuration Utility, which you can enter by

pressing <Ctrl><A> when prompted during the POST of the LSI SCSI controllers.

You can include channels from the embedded LSI Ultra 320 SCSI controller. Ensure that the hard

drive containing the operating system is set as one of these first four channels in the boot sequence.

The first device from each of the four channels is included as a boot option in the System Setup

program. See your system’s

User’s Guide

for information about using the System Setup program.

RAID Controllers

Installing RAID Controllers

Install Dell™ PowerEdge™ Expandable RAID Controller (PERC) 3/DC and PERC 3/QC controller

cards in PCI-X expansion slots 2 through 5. Do not install PERC 3/DC and PERC 3/QC controller

cards in slots 6 and 7. Expansion cards with older PCI technology might overload the newer

133-MHz PCI-X slots (slots 6 and 7), which have a lighter signal load due to a shorter bus and only

one slot on the bus.

NOTE: "Overload" in this context refers to the signal load, not the power load. All the PCI slots receive

equal power from the same source.

See your

Installation and Troubleshooting Guide

for information about installing expansion cards.

Configuring RAID Controllers

NOTICE: Changing the configuration of the ROMB controller on the boot drive by mistake can result in

clearing the operating system configuration.

If ROMB is enabled and one or more PERC 3/DC or PERC 3/QC RAID controllers are installed in

the system, do not change the configuration of the ROMB controller on the boot drive by mistake.

When you access the RAID controller setup functions by pressing <Ctrl><m> during startup,

the ROMB boot drive is listed as the default controller. Be careful to select the correct RAID

controller before making any logical drive configuration changes.

Novell NetWare 6.0

USB Driver Issue

Systems running NetWare 6.0

with Support Pack 1 that have an attached USB keyboard can lock

up when the

reset server

command is run. Use the updated

UHC1DRV.NLM

file (version 1.01,

dated December 12, 2001, or a later version) on the

Dell OpenManage Server Assistant

to resolve this issue.

Information Update 1-5

ERA/O Card Issue

NetWare 6.0 with Support Pack 1 might not recognize an Embedded Remote Access Option

(ERA/O) card that is installed in your system. When you add a new expansion card, systems with

an installed ERA/O card can lock up when the

NWDETECT.NLM

file attempts to configure the

new card. You can avoid this issue by applying one of the following solutions:

• Install Support Pack 2 for NetWare 6.0 before adding any expansion cards. See the Novell

website at

www.novell.com

for the latest information.

•Replacethe

NWCONFIG.NLM

file (v.3.40d, September 20, 2001) with the updated

NWCONFIG.NLM

file (v.3.40d, May 3, 2002) from Support Pack 2 for NetWare 6.0.

See the Novell website at

www.novell.com

for the latest information. To update the

NWCONFIG.NLM

file

perform the following steps:

After the NetWare 6.0 installation is complete, rename the directory

C:\NWSERVER\ NWCONFIG.NLM

C:\NWSERVER\NWCONFIG.OLD

Copy the

NWCONFIG.NLM

file from the

\Startup

directory in Support Pack 2

C:\NWSERVER

Restart your system.

Hyper-Threading

Hyper-Threading is not currently supported on systems running NetWare 6.0.

Red Hat Linux

Using ARCserve®IT on Systems Running Red Hat Linux 7.3

For systems running Red Hat Linux 7.3, you cannot use ARCserve

to back up your data when

your tape drive is connected to integrated SCSI channel B. This configuration creates a conflict

between system IDs. To use ARCserve

to back up your data on a system running Red Hat

Linux 7.3, you have two options: change the tape drive ID to avoid the system ID conflict or attach

your tape drive to a supported SCSI controller card.

Perform the following steps to change the ID number of the tape drive to resolve the system ID

conflict:

At the command prompt, type

insmod sg

Ty p e

more /proc/scsi/sg/device_hdr

to display a header.

Ty p e

more /proc/scsi/sg/devices

to display multiple lines of numbers matching

the above headers.

The first column lists the adapter number, and the third column lists the ID number.

Change the tape drive ID number to one that is currently not used.

NOTE: "Tape drives have either jumpers or some other way of physically changing the ID number of the

device. See the documentation that came with your tape drive for information about setting ID numbers.

Compatibility Considerations

Processors

A system board that uses up to two Intel Xeon™ 533-MHz front-side bus microprocessors is now

available. The 533-MHz front-side bus processors have 604 pins, support internal operating speeds

of at least 2.0 GHz, and include an internal cache of at least 512 KB. The Xeon 400-MHz front-side

bus processors have 603 pins.

The Xeon 400-MHz and 533-MHz front-side bus processors cannot be used together in the same

system. If both processor speeds are installed, the system will not boot and no error message is

displayed. Power is not applied to the processors so that they will not be damaged.

Memory

PC 1600 (DDR200) memory modules are not compatible with the Xeon 533-MHz front-side bus

processor. If installed, these memory modules prevent a system with this processor from performing

a POST and result in a memory-configuration error beep code of 1-3-2.

System BIOS Version

If your system uses the Xeon 533-MHz front-side bus processor, your system BIOS must be

version A04 or higher. BIOS versions below A04 are not compatible with this processor.
