1Introduction

The PRIMERGY RX600 S3 server is an Intel-based server for mid-size and

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

application, information or Internet server. It is available as a rack model.

The PRIMERGY RX600 S3 server offers a high level of reliability and availability

through highly developed hardware and software components. These include

hot-plug hard disk drive modules, hot-plug system fans and power supply units,

hot-plug PCI slots and memory boards, the ServerView server management

software, “Prefailure Detection and Analysing” (PDA) and “Automatic Server

Reconfiguration 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

lockable rack door.

This server occupies 4 height units (HU) in the rack.

1.1 Overview of the Documentation

IPRIMERGY manuals are available in PDF format on the ServerBooks CD

which is part of the PRIMERGY ServerView Suite delivered with each

Features Introduction

1.2 Features

System Board

The features of the system board (D2352) are described in the technical manual

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

the firmware (see “Related publications” on page 107).

Hot-Plug PCI Slots

In addition to two standard PCI slots, the server also comprises five hot-plug

PCI slots (for one PCI-X board and four PCI Express boards) that allow boards

to be installed and removed online, assuming the operating system supports

this functionality (for further information see section “Hot-plug PCI Boards” on

page 88).

Hard Disk Drives

The server has a drive bay that can each accommodate up to five ULTRA 320-

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

accommodate a SCSI hard disk drive with an SCA (Single Connector

Attachment) interface and a maximum height of 1 inch. The module is

connected to the SCSI backplane without cables via the SCA interface. This

allows hard disk drive modules to be simply plugged in or pulled out (for further

details see section “Hot-plug Hard Disk Drives” on page 78).

The hard disk drive system is designed for Ultra3 SCSI and is operated using

two channels with three (channel A) and two (channel B) hard disk drives each.

The hard disk drives can either be operated in "pure" SCSI mode by the

onboard controller (see “SCSI Controller” on page 9) or by an additional RAID

controller (see “MegaRAID RoMB Controller” on page 9).

With a RAID controller and the corresponding RAID configuration, defective

HDD modules may be replaced while the system is running (hot-plug).

An external SCSI interface is also offered optionally to allow external storage

subsystems to be connected.

U41662-J-Z156-1-76 9

Introduction Features

SCSI Controller

For operating internal hard disk drives or an internal magnetic tape drive, an

onboard 2-channel Ultra320 LSI SCSI controller is available. Alternatively, an

external storage subsystem (e.g. magnetic tape drive) may be connected to the

second channel at the rear of the server. If both channels are already being

used internally, an additional SCSI controller must be built into a PCI slot.

MegaRAID RoMB Controller

RAID functionality is assured by a MegaRAID controller which is configured as

"RAID on Mother Board" (RoMB) by default. If the server was ordered with the

RAID option, activation of the RoMB controller is performed "ex factory" by

means of an activation key on the system board. RAID levels 0, 1, 10, 5, 50 are

supported. The MegaRAID RoMB controller uses the onboard Ultra320 SCSI

controller by means of a logic specially integrated on the system board.

Optionally, a BBU is available for the RoMB controller to secure memory

contents in case of a power failure.

Accessible Drives/Components

Various mounting locations are available:

– one location with a LocalView module (standard)

– one location for a slimline CD or DVD drive (standard)

– one location for a SCSI 5,25-inch magnetic tape drive (option)

The accessible drives/components integrated in these locations cannot be

replaced while the system is up and running.

Power Supply

The server has two hot-plug power supply units that adjust automatically to any

power voltage in the range from 200 V - 240 V. Thus, redundancy of the power

supply is ensured. If one power supply unit fails, the second unit will maintain

uninterrupted operation. The defective power supply unit can be replaced online

(for further details see section “Replacing a Hot-plug Power Supply Unit” on

page 75).

Features Introduction

Ventilation

The server is cooled by means of four hot-plug system fans (redundant config-

uration). Two fans each are contained in one fan unit. Fan control is performed

via temperature sensors. If a sensor fails or is removed, the relevant system

fans run at maximum speed to ensure optimum hardware protection. If the

server cover is removed, all system fans are operated at maximum speed.

In case of a defective fan, uninterrupted operation is ensured. A defective fan

unit can be replaced online (for further details see section “Replacing a Hot-plug

System Fan Unit” on page 77).

High Level of Availability and Reliability

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

nized and automatically corrected with the ECC (Error Correcting Code)

method. The patented memory scrubbing function regularly starts up the EDC

(Error Detection Code) mechanism and thus ensures continuous data integrity.

The memory modules used support Chipkill technology.

Support is likewise provided for hot-spare memory technology, in which a

memory bank is used like a replacement bank. If a memory module fails, the

bank with the defective memory is automatically deactivated and the

replacement bank is activated in its place (assuming it has been configured

appropriately in the BIOS). The deactivated memory bank is no longer used and

the faulty memory module can be replaced at the next opportunity. In order to

be able to use the hot-spare memory function, all occupied memory banks must

have an identical memory configuration.

Memory boards can be secured against failure either by memory mirroring (two

or four boards required) or by memory RAID (four boards required). Both

methods cannot be used simultaneously.

With the hot-plug function, memory boards may be replaced or added while the

system is up and running (see “Hot-plug Memory Boards” on page 84).

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

the case of an error and automatically "hides" the defective system compo-

nents.

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

Computers analyzes and monitors all components important for system

reliability.
