RX200 S3 Operating Manual 5

1Introduction

The PRIMERGY RX200 S3 server is an Intel-based server for mid-size

networks and large companies. The server is suitable for use as a file server

and also as an application, information or Internet server.

Thanks to its highly developed hardware and software components, the

PRIMERGY RX200 S3 server offers a high level of data security and availability.

These components include hot-plug hard disk drive modules, redundant system

fans and power supply units, the Server Management ServerView Suite,

Prefailure Detection and Analysing (PDA) and Automatic Server Reconfigu-

ration and Restart (ASR&R).

Security functions in the BIOS Setup and on the system board protect the data

on the server against manipulation. Additional security is provided by the

intrusion detection and the lockable rack door.

The server occupies one height unit in the rack.

1.1 Documentation Overview

IPRIMERGY manuals are available in PDF format on the ServerBooks CD.

The ServerBooks CD is part of the ServerStart Suite supplied with every

RX200 S3 Operating Manual 7

Introduction Features

1.2 Features

System board

The features of the system board (D2300) are described in the technical manual

for the system board in relation to the hardware and in the BIOS setup manual

(see “Literature” on page 89).

Hard disk drives

The server can accommodate two 3.5 inch or four 2.5 inch SAS/SATA hard disk

drive modules. Each hard disk drive module (HDD module) can accommodate

a SAS/SATA hard disk drive with a maximum height of 1 or 0.5 inch. The module

is connected to the SAS/SATA backplane without cables. This allows hard disk

drive modules to be simply plugged in or pulled out (for further details see

section “Hot-pluggable hard disk drives” on page 69).

The internal hard disk drives are controlled exclusively by the onboard SAS

controller.

If the server has a RAID configuration, the HDD modules can be exchanged

during operation (hot plugging).

Onboard SAS controller with IME functionality

The SAS controller is equipped with "Integrated Mirroring Enhanced" function-

ality for operating internal hard disks. "Integrated Mirroring Enhanced" also

provides RAID 0.1 functionality for configuring the internal hard disks

(IME Level 1).

ITo configure "Integrated Mirroring Enhanced", the controller has its own

RAIDSelect Utility. For further information, refer to the “Integrated

Mirroring User’s Guide” on the ServerBooks CD (select “Controllers” from

the menu).

Zero Channel RAID (ZCR) controller (option)

Optionally a ZCR controller (PCI card) can be installed. In addition to RAID

levels 0 and 1, this RAID controller also offers the option of configuring RAID 5.

The ZCR controller uses the Onboard SAS controller using logic that is specially

integrated on the system board.

8 Operating Manual RX200 S3

Features Introduction

Accessible drive

A mounting location is provided for a slimline CD/DVD ROM drive (optional) The

accessible drive installed here cannot be replaced during operation.

USB port

The two USB ports on the front of the device support activities carried out by the

service technician. The maximum length of the external cable are three meters.

Power supply

In its basic configuration, the server has a hot-pluggable power supply unit that

adjusts automatically to any power voltage in the range from 100 V to 240 V. As

an option, the power supply can be expanded with an extra power supply unit to

create a redundant power supply. If a power supply unit fails, the redundant

configuration assures continued operation. The defective power supply unit can

be replaced during operation (for further details see section “Hot-plug power

supply units” on page 67).

Cooling

Each processor has a heat sink. Further cooling for the installed processors is

provided by five fan units (redundant). If one fan in a redundant unit fails, the

system is able to continue operating without limitations. If a fan fails, it can be

replaced while the system is running (for further details see section “Replacing

a Hot-plug Fan” on page 78).

High level of availability and data security

When memory data is accessed, 1-bit errors in the main memory are identified

and automatically corrected with the ECC (Error Correcting Code) method. The

patented memory scrubbing function regularly starts up the EDC mechanism

and thus ensures continuous data integrity.

The memory modules used support SDDC technology (Chipkill™), which also

increases the effectiveness of the monitoring and correction of memory errors.

Memory Mirroring is also supported (requires four or eight memory modules).

Memory Mirroring is roughly comparable to RAID level 1 for hard disk arrays.

Memory modules are protected against failure by mirroring. The basic configu-

ration requires four identical memory modules in two different banks.

ASR&R (Automatic Server Reconfiguration and Restart) restarts the system in

case of an error and automatically "hides" the defective system components.

RX200 S3 Operating Manual 9

Introduction Features

The PDA (Prefailure Detection and Analyzing) technology from Fujitsu Siemens

Computers analyzes and monitors all components that are critical for system

reliability.

Optional RAID controllers support RAID Levels 0, 1 and 5 and increase system

availability.

Server management

Server management is implemented using the ServerView software supplied

combined with PDA (Prefailure Detection and Analyzing) technology from

Fujitsu Siemens. PDA reports the threat of a system error or overload at an early

stage, allowing preventive measures to be taken.

ServerView enables the management of all PRIMERGY servers in the network

via a central console. The following key features are supported among others

by ServerView in this context.

●Remote power on (Wake On LAN)

●Temperature monitoring of the CPU and the surrounding area

●Monitoring of the utilization of the PCI buses

●Detailed status and error reports for bus systems, processors and main

memory

●Watchdog timer for Automatic Server Reconfiguration and Restart (ASR&R)

in the event of failure of memory modules or processors

●Power monitoring

●Early detection of a defective fan

●Watchdog timer for operating system monitoring and application monitoring

with ASR&R

Further information about ServerView server management is provided in the

associated documentation (see “Literature” on page 89).

ServerStart

The ServerStart software supplied allows you to configure your PRIMERGY

server quickly and purposefully. User-guided menus are available for installing

the server operating system (for further details see section “Configuring the

Server” on page 55).

10 Operating Manual RX200 S3

Features Introduction

Service and support

PRIMERGY servers are service-friendly and modular, thus enabling quick and

simple maintenance.

The handles and locks (touch point) of the different hot-plug components are

colored green to ensure simple and immediate recognition.

In order to avoid damage to components by incorrect handling when they are

being installed and removed, green highlighting also identifies the areas of all

components that can be touched without causing damage to the respective

component.

PRIMERGY diagnostic LEDs fitted on the system board show which component

on the board (memory module, CPU) is not functioning properly.

The Flash EPROM program supplied with the Fujitsu Siemens Computers

utilities supports a fast BIOS update.

With the iRMC (integrated Remote Management Controller) on the system

board and the optional remote testing and diagnostic system RemoteView, the

PRIMERGY RX200 S3 server can also be maintained and serviced remotely.

This enables remote diagnosis for system analysis, remote configuration and

remote restart should the operating system or hardware fail.

RemoteView

RemoteView is the remote management solution from Fujitsu Siemens

Computers for Intel-based PRIMERGY systems. RemoteView and the relevant

hardware components integrated on the system board allow remote monitoring

and maintenance as well as fast restoration of operability in the event of errors.

Remote monitoring and maintenance avoids time-consuming and costly on-site

repairs and reduces service costs. This leads to a reduction in the total cost of

ownership and an excellent return on investment for the remote management

solution.
