1 Introduction

The PRIMERGY TX300 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. It is available as a floorstand or

rack model. The floorstand model can be converted to a rack model using an

optional conversion kit.

The PRIMERGY TX300 server offers a high level of reliability and availability

through highly developed hardware and software components. These include

hot-swap hard disk drive modules, redundant system fans and power supply

units, and hot-plug PCI slots, the ServerView server management software,

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

ration and Restart“ (ASR&R).

The term hot-swap refers to the online replacement of a component (e.g. a

failed hard disk drive, which is configured as a member of a disk array (RAID)).

The term hot-plug refers to the replacement of components while the power is

switched on. In the special case of hot-plug PCI boards it is ensured that the

corresponding PCI slot is powered off before removing the board.

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 drive cover on the floorstand model and/or

the lockable rack door.

The rack model 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. The ServerBooks CD is part of the ServerStart Bundle

delivered with each server system.

expand your server.

This operating manual is intended for those responsible for installing the

hardware and operating the system. The manual contains all the information

required for mounting and operating your PRIMERGY TX300.

To understand the different expansion options, you need a knowledge of

hardware and data transmission, as well as basic knowledge of the operating

system used.

Introduction Features

1.2 Features

System board

The features of the system board (D1409) 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 standard PCI slots, the server also comprises two hot-plug PCI

slots that allow boards to be installed and removed online assuming the

operating system supports this functionality (for further information see section

“Replacing hot-plug PCI Boards” on page 94).

Hard disk drives

The server has a drive cage that can accommodate up to six ULTRA 320-SCSI

hard disk drive modules. Each hard disk drive module (HDD module) can accom-

modate 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-

swap Hard Disk Drives” on page 81).

The hard disk drive system is designed for Ultra3 SCSI and can be configured

as a dual-channel system with three hard disk drives each or as a single-

channel system with six hard disk drives. The hard disk drives can be controlled

by the onboard controller or by a RAID controller.

A HDD extension box can be installed optionally (with a maximum of three HDD

modules). The hard disk drives in the extension box can likewise be controlled

by the onboard controller or by a RAID controller.

If the server has a RAID controller and a corresponding RAID configuration,

defective HDD modules can also be exchanged online (hot-swap).

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

subsystems to be connected. You find further information in the configurator

(see “Related Publications” on page 107).

Features Introduction

SCSI controller with HostRAID functionality

For operating internal hard disk drives the 2-channel Ultra320 SCSI controller with

HostRAID functionality is available. In addition to the SCSI functions HostRAID

offers RAID functionality for the internal disk configuration (HostRAID: level 0, 1, 10).

ITo configure HostRAID the controller has its own RAID-Select Utility. For

further information see “Adaptec HostRAID User’s Guide“ on the Server-

Books CD (choose 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, 1, 10 ZCR controller offers the possibility to configure also RAID-5 or

RAID-50. ZCR controller utilizes both channels of the onboard

Ultra320 SCSI

controller using a special integrated logic.

Accessible drives

Various mounting locations are available:

– Three 5.25 inch half-height (1.6 inch) locations for accessible drives (CD-

ROM, DVD-ROM, CD burner or magnetic tape drive) or a LocalView module.

Alternatively, two of these locations can be used to install a 3.2 inch high

accessible drive (magnetic tape drive) or HDD extension box.

– A flexy bay (slot) for a 3.5 inch slimline floppy disk drive (1.44 MB) and a

slimline DVD-ROM drive.

The accessible drives integrated in the 5.25 inch mounting locations cannot be

replaced online.

A hot-swap tape drive can be installed optionally in the drive cage or in the HDD

extension box (see also the configurator under “Related Publications” on

page 107). Two mounting locations are occupied as a result in the drive cage or

in the HDD extension box, which are then no longer available for HDD modules.

This magnetic tape drive can be replaced online.

Power supply

In its basic configuration, the server has a hot-swap wide-range power supply

unit that adjusts automatically to any power voltage in the range from 100 V to

240 V. An additional power supply unit can be installed optionally in order to

ensure redundancy of the power supply. If one power supply unit fails, the
