1 Introduction The HP Integrity rx7620 Server is a member of the HP business-critical computing platform family: a mid-range, mid-volume server, positioned as an upgrade to the HP 9000 rp7410 product in the IA-64 product line. The HP Integrity rx7620 Server shares the same hardware as the HP 9000 rp7410 with changes to the cell board, CPU modules, core I/O and the PCI-X backplane. The HP Integrity rx7620 Server provides increased performance over its predecessor.
Figure 1-2 HP Integrity rx7620 Server (without front bezel) System Backplane The system backplane comprises the system clock generation logic, the system reset generation logic, DC-to-DC converters, power monitor logic, and two Local Bus Adapter (LBA) link-to-PCI converter ASICs. It also includes connectors for attaching the cell boards, the PCI-X backplane, MP/SCSI core I/O boards, SCSI cables, bulk power, chassis fans, the front panel display, intrusion switches, and the system scan card.
Figure 1-3 System Backplane Block Diagram System Backplane to PCI-X Backplane Connectivity The PCI-X backplane uses two connectors for the SBA link bus and two connectors for the high-speed data signals and the manageability signals. SBA link bus signals are routed through the system backplane to the cell controller on each corresponding cell board. The high-speed data signals are routed from the SBA chips on the PCI-X backplane to the two LBA PCI bus controllers on the system backplane.
Figure 1-4 PCI-X Board to Cell Board Block Diagram NOTE: PCI-X slots 1-7 are dual rope slots while slot 8 is a single rope slot. A rope is defined as a high-speed point-to-point data bus. The PCI-X backplane is the primary I/O interface for the HP Integrity rx7620 Server systems. It provides sixteen 64-bit, hot-plug PCI/PCI-X slots. Fourteen of the slots have dual ropes connected to the LBA chips. The remaining two slots have a single rope connected to each LBA chip.
Table 1-1 PCI-X Slot Types (continued) I/O Partition Slot Device1 0 3 PCI (33 or 66 MHz) / PCI-X (66 or 133 MHz) 64-bit, 3.3V connector, Hot-Plug Slot. 0 2 PCI (33 or 66 MHz) / PCI-X (66 or 133 MHz) 64-bit, 3.3V connector, Hot-Plug Slot. 0 1 PCI (33 or 66 MHz) / PCI-X (66 or 133 MHz) 64-bit, 3.3V connector, Hot-Plug Slot. 1 8 PCI (33 or 66 MHz) / PCI-X (66 or 133 MHz) 64-bit, 3.3V connector, Hot-Plug Slot. 1 7 PCI (33 or 66 MHz) / PCI-X (66 or 133 MHz) 64-bit, 3.3V connector, Hot-Plug Slot.
Cell Board The cell board contains several hardware blocks connected by several data buses. The major hardware blocks are the Central Processor Units (CPUs), the Cache Coherency Controller (CC), the memory controllers, and the memory. Minor hardware blocks include Clock Distribution, Power Distribution, Reset Circuit, and PDH Riser Board Interface. The buses include two Front Side Buses (FBS0 and FBS1), a Memory (MID) bus, a Crossbar (XB) bus, and an I/O bus. All these blocks come together at the CC chip.
Figure 1-7 Memory Subsystem PDH Riser Board The Platform Dependant Hardware Riser board is a daughter card for the cell board. It contains a micro-processor memory interface microcircuit, processor-dependent hardware including the processor-dependent code (PDC), flash memory, and a manageability microcontroller, called the Platform Dependant Hardware Controller (PDHC) with associated circuitry. The PDH obtains cell board configuration information from cell board signals and from the cell's LPM.
Figure 1-8 CPU Locations on the Cell Board DIMMs The memory DIMMs used by the HP Integrity rx7620 Server are custom-designed by HP and are identical to those used in the Superdome server. Each DIMM contains SDRAM memory components and is qualified to run at 125MHz. The CPU chip set does not support traditional DRAMs. The HP Integrity rx7620 Server supports DIMMs with densities of 64, 128, 256, and 512 Mb for the SDRAM devices.
DIMMs must be loaded in sets of two at specified locations on the cell board. Two DIMMs are called an “echelon”, so two echelons would be equivalent to four DIMMs, three echelons would be equivalent to six DIMMs and so on. The DIMMs must be the same size in an echelon. The DIMMs across all cells in a partition should have identical memory loaded. Figure 1-9 shows the DIMM slot layout on the cell board. For DIMM load order, see Table 1-4. A quad seen in Figure 1-9 is a grouping of four DIMMs.
Cells and nPartitions NOTE: In the following discussion, the term “cell” refers to a cell board. A cell board that has an I/O link to a bootable device and a console (usually supplied by an MP/SCSI core I/O card) is a potential boot cell. The cell that contains the boot console I/O path is the called the root cell. Both cells are potential root cells. The primary or default root cell in a single nPartition system is the bottom cell (cell 1).
MP/SCSI Core I/O Board The HP Integrity rx7620 Server accommodates two sets of MP/SCSI core I/O functionality. Each MP/SCSI core I/O board set consists of a MP/SCSI board and a Procurium LAN/SCSI board. At least one MP/SCSI board is required (independent of partitions). An additional MP/SCSI board can be added as well (and is required in a dual partition system). Both MP/SCSI core I/O boards are oriented vertically and plug into the system backplane.
Figure 1-11 Right-Front View of HP Integrity rx7620 Server The PCI-X card section, located toward the rear, is accessed by removing the top cover. The PCI OLR fan modules are located in front of the PCI-X cards. These six 9.2-cm fans are housed in plastic carriers. They are configured in two rows of three fans. The MP/SCSI core I/O boards are positioned vertically at the rear of the chassis. The PCI-X card bulkhead connectors are located in the top rear portion of the chassis.

2 Unpacking the Server HP shipping containers are designed to protect their contents under normal shipping conditions. After the equipment arrives, carefully inspect each carton for signs of shipping damage. A tilt indicator is installed on each carton shipped. The beads in the indicator will roll to the upper position if the container has been tilted to an angle that could cause equipment damage. The tilt indicator itself has two windows; and each window, under normal conditions, shows four beads present.
3. 4. Remove the corrugated wrap from the pallet. Remove the packing materials. CAUTION: The plastic wrapping material should be cut off rather than pulled off. Pulling the plastic covering off represents an ESD hazard. Figure 2-1 Removing the Polystraps and Cardboard 5. 32 Remove the four bolts that hold the ramps to the pallet, and remove the ramps. See Figure 2-2.
Figure 2-2 Removing the Shipping Bolts and Plastic Cover 6. Remove the six bolts from the base that attaches the rack to the pallet. See Figure 2-3.
WARNING! Be sure that the leveling feet on the rack are raised before you roll the rack down the ramp and any time you roll the rack on the casters. Use caution when rolling the cabinet off the ramp. A single server in the cabinet weighs approximately 665 pounds. HP strongly recommends that two people roll the cabinet off the pallet. Securing the Cabinet When in position, secure and stabilize the cabinet, using the leveling feet at the corners of the base.
Unpacking a Non-Racked Server NOTE: If this server was delivered with a wheel kit, proceed to Chapter 3 (page 41). NOTE: HP recommends the use of a lifter, such as a RONI Company model 17000 SP 400 lifting device, when moving a non-racked system, shown in Figure 2-5. If no lifter is available, install the lift handle panels provided with the system. Unloading With a Lifter To unload the server from the pallet using a lifter, follow these steps: WARNING! Use caution when using a lifter.
Figure 2-6 Server With Shipping Box Removed 1. 2. Remove all cartons from the pallet, leaving only the server. Remove the two foam cushions for lift access as shown in Figure 2-7. Figure 2-7 Remove Cushions for Lift Access 3. 4. 5. 36 Insert the lifter forks under the server. Carefully roll the lift forward until it is fully positioned against the side of the server. Slowly raise the server off the pallet until it clears the pallet cushions.
Figure 2-8 Raising a Server Off the Pallet 6. Roll the lifter and server away from the pallet. Do not raise the server any higher than necessary when moving it over to the rack. NOTE: Guide. When installing the server in a rack, see the HP J1530B Rack Integration Kit Installation Unloading With Lift Handle Panels WARNING! Use this procedure only if an HP-approved lift is not available. This procedure should only be attempted by two authorized HP service technicians.

If OLAR reports that a slot is present and powered off, but no OLAR operations to turn power on to that slot have succeeded even after the MRL is closed, the MRL may have been left open during boot. To clear this condition, close the MRL for the PCI slot then power off the PCI slot using the rad -o command. This enables future OLAR operations to succeed on this PCI slot. IMPORTANT: The installation process varies depending on what method for installing the PCI card is selected.
Figure 3-8 PCI I/O Slot Details 7. 8. Wait for the green power LED to stop blinking. Check for errors in the hotplug daemon log file (default: /var/adm/hotplugd.log). The critical resource analysis (CRA) performed while doing an attention button initiated add action is very restrictive and the action will not complete–it will fail–to protect critical resources from being impacted. For finer control over CRA actions, use pdweb or the olrad command.
Figure 3-9 Removable Media Bay Location 3. Verify that the SCSI and power cables have the appropriate service length required. IMPORTANT: For the DVD+RW installation, the SCSI cable length must equal 1.5 inches, +/- 0.25 in. The power cable length must equal 3.5 inches, +/- 0.25 in.
Figure 3-11 Power Cable Length 4. 5. 6. 52 Disconnect the three SCSI cables from the Mass Storage Backplane (MSBP). Drape the disconnected cables over to the side of the chassis. If the removable media bay power cable and the corresponding SCSI cable are taped together, separate the cables. Disconnect the four-pin power connector from the MSBP. Loosen the screw on the hold-down plate to adjust the length of the cable.
Figure 3-12 Hold-Down Plate and Screw 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. Slide the hold-down plate toward the rear of the chassis until the tabs disengage. Do not move the plate further than necessary to disengage the tabs. Adjust the length of the SCSI and power cables to the appropriate service length described in Step 3. Pull any excess cable length into the main chassis, and store it between the MSBP and the SCSI Ferrite.

by protecting, for example, against power source failures or accidentally tripped circuit breakers. The HP Integrity rx7620 Server can receive AC input from two different AC power sources. System AC Power Specifications Power Cords Table B-3 lists the various power cables available for use with a HP Integrity rx7620 Server. Each power cord is 15 feet (4.5 meters) in length with a IEC 60320-1 C19 female connector attached to one end.
3. power rating of the bulk power supplies. This number can safely be used to size AC circuits and breakers for the system. Typical maximum power is the input power measured at the AC input expressed in Watts and Volt-Amps, and the measured maximum worst case power consumption. This number represents the largest power consumption for the server under laboratory conditions, using aggressive software applications designed specifically to work the system at maximum loads and power consumption.
PCI/Mass Storage Section Cooling Six 92 mm fans located between the mass storage devices and the PCI card cage provide airflow through these devices. The PCI fans are powered with housekeeping power and run at full speed at all times. The air is pulled through the mass storage devices and pushed through the PCI Card Cage.
Figure B-1 Airflow Diagram System Requirements Summary This appendix summarizes the requirements that must be considered in preparing the site for the HP Integrity rx7620 Server. Power Consumption and Air Conditioning To determine the power consumed and the air conditioning required, follow the guidelines in Table B-5. NOTE: When determining power requirements, consider any peripheral equipment that will be installed during initial installation or as a later update.

C General Site Preparation Guidelines Electrical Factors NOTE: Electrical practices and suggestions in this guide are based on North American practices. For regions and areas outside North America, local electrical codes will take precedence over North American electrical codes. An example would be the recommendation that the PE (Protective Earthing) conductor be green with yellow stripes.
For example, it is difficult to see cable connection points on the hardware if lighting is inadequate. Adequate lighting reduces the chances of connector damage when cables are installed or removed. The minimum recommended illumination level is 70 foot-candles (756 lumens per square meter) when the light level is measured at 30 inches (76.2 cm) above the floor. Working Space for Server Access The recommended working space for performing maintenance on the server is three feet.
Every precaution has been taken during power distribution system design to provide immunity to power outages of less than one cycle. However, testing cannot conclusively rule out loss of service. Therefore, adherence to the following guidelines provides the best possible performance of power distribution systems for server equipment: • A dedicated power source isolates the server power distribution system from other circuits in the facility.
Main Building Electrical Ground The main electrical service entrance equipment should have an earth ground connection, as required by applicable codes. Connections, such as a grounding rod, building steel, or a conductive type cold water service pipe, provide an earth ground. Electrical Conduit Ground All electrical conduits should be made of rigid metallic conduit that is securely connected together or bonded to panels and electrical boxes to provide a continuous grounding system.
NOTE: Regardless of the grounding connection method used, the raised floor should be grounded as an absolute safety minimum. HP recommends the following approaches: Excellent Add a signal reference grid to the subfloor. The grid should be made of aluminum strips mounted to the subfloor. The strips should be 0.032 in. (0.08 cm) thick and a minimum of 3.0 in. (8.0 cm) wide. Connect each pedestal to four strips using 0.25 in. (6.0 mm) bolts tightened to the manufacturer’s torque recommendation.
3. 4. Check that the braid contact on each end of the ground straps consists of a terminal and connection hardware (a 0.25 in. (6.0 mm) bolt, nuts, and washers). Check that the braid contact connection points are free of paint or other insulating material and are treated with a contact enhancement compound (similar to Burndy Penetrox). System Installation Guidelines This section contains information about installation practices. Some common problems are highlighted.
• • • • • Use a vapor barrier installed around the entire computer room envelope to restrain moisture migration. Caulk and vapor seal all pipes and cables that penetrate the envelope. Use at least a 12-inch raised floor system for the most favorable room air distribution system (underfloor distribution). Ensure a minimum ceiling height of 12 inches between the top of the server and the ceiling and that all ceiling clips are in place.
• • Central station air handling units with remote refrigeration equipment. These systems are usually located outside the computer room. Scalable overhead distribution system. These systems distribute water overhead to air heat exchangers, which cool the air locally over the servers. A system called DataCoolTM is primarily used in high density environments of 100 to 500 watts per square foot. Basic Air Distribution Systems A basic air distribution system includes supply air and return air.
Air Conditioning System Installation All air conditioning equipment, materials, and installation must comply with any applicable construction codes. Installation of the various components of the air conditioning system must also conform to the air conditioning equipment manufacturer’s recommendations. Air Conditioning Ducts Use separate computer room air conditioning duct work. If it is not separate from the rest of the building, it might be difficult to control cooling and air pressure levels.
• Establish a no eating or drinking policy. Spilled liquids can cause short circuits in equipment such as keyboards. • Use a dust-absorbent cloth mop rather than a dry mop to clean tile floors. Special precautions are necessary if the computer room is near a source of air pollution. Some air pollutants, especially hydrogen sulfide, are not only unpleasant but corrosive as well. Hydrogen sulfide damages wiring and delicate sound equipment.
• • • Use a grounded wrist strap (or other grounding method) when handling circuit boards. Store spare electronic modules in antistatic containers. Maintain recommended humidity level and airflow rates in the computer room. Acoustics Computer equipment and air conditioning blowers cause computer rooms to be noisy. Ambient noise level in a computer room can be reduced as follows: • Cover the ceiling with a commercial grade of fire-resistant, acoustic rated, fiberglass ceiling tile.
Table C-3 Floor Loading Term Definitions (continued) Term Definition Concentrated load The load that a floor panel can support on a one square inch (6.45 cm2) area at the panel’s weakest point (typically the center of the panel), without the surface of the panel deflecting more than a predetermined amount. Ultimate load The maximum load (per floor panel) that the floor system can support without failure. Failure expressed by floor panel(s) breaking or bending.
Space Requirements This section contains information about space requirements for an HP Integrity rx7620 Server. This data should be used as the basic guideline for space plan developments. Other factors, such as airflow, lighting, and equipment space requirements must also be considered. Delivery Space Requirements There should be enough clearance to move equipment safely from the receiving area to the computer room. Permanent obstructions, such as pillars or narrow doorways, can cause equipment damage.
Figure C-3 Footprint Space planning should also include the possible addition of equipment or other changes in space requirements.
Figure C-4 Planning Grid Power Plug Configuration There are several different power cables designed for use with HP servers. The region the server ships to will determine which power cable ships with the server. The following provides the site preparation specialist with the knowledge of what to expect to receive based on the regional shipping destination.
Figure C-5 C20 Male Receptacle (at power supply) Figure C-6 C19 Female Plug (on one end of the power cord) Male End of Power Cable The male plug on the other end of the power cable will vary depending on the region the HP server is shipped to.
