CAUTION: Do not apply excessive force when closing the extraction handles and seating the memory carrier assembly into the socket on the processor board. Manipulate the extraction handles with care.
Memory Installation Conventions Before installing memory, read and understand the following memory installation conventions: • • • Supported DIMM sizes and memory configurations DIMM load order DIMM slot IDs Supported DIMM Sizes and Memory Configurations The standard server configuration includes an 8-DIMM memory carrier which contains two 4-DIMM memory boards. An optional, high-capacity memory configuration is also available: a 24-DIMM memory carrier containing two 12-DIMM memory boards.
Table 3-5 8-DIMM Memory Carrier Load Order Pair Number Memory Carrier Side Slot ID 1 Side 0 0A; 0B 2 Side 1 0A; 0B 3 Side 0 1A; 1B 4 Side 1 1A; 1B The DIMM slot IDS are the same for both 8-DIMM memory carrier boards. Unique slots are identified within the carrier by the side in which they reside. For example, slot 0A is identified as slot 0A, side 0; or slot 0A, side 1. Figure 3-9 shows the DIMM slot IDs for the 8-DIMM memory carrier board.
Figure 3-10 24-DIMM Memory Carrier Board Slot IDs Memory Loading Rules and Guidelines Use the following rules and guidelines when installing memory: • • • • • Install DIMMs in pairs for the 8-DIMM memory carrier and quads in the 24 DIMM memory carrier. Ensure that all DIMMs within a pair or quad are identical. Install pairs or quads in order of capacity from largest to smallest. For example, install all 2 GB quads before 1 GB or smaller quads, and install all 1 GB quads before 512 MB quads.
NOTE: The number in parenthesis indicates the order in which the quads are loaded.
NOTE: To avoid damage to the handles, HP recommends rotating the handles inward and snapping them into place when servicing the system DIMMs or any time the carrier is out of the chassis. Before replacing the memory carrier, press the button to release the extraction handles. Use the handles to replace the memory carrier into the chassis. 3. Complete the following memory installation prerequisite tasks before installing the memory: a.
7. Replace the memory carrier assembly side cover. a. Insert the side cover tabs into the retaining slots at the base of the assembly (Figure 3-8). b. Insert the tabs (Figure 3-8) into the slots on both sides of the extraction handle release button until the side cover snaps into place. NOTE: To install DIMMs into slots on the other side of the memory carrier, turn the carrier over to the opposite side (side 0 or side 1) and repeat the installation procedure. 8.

Some LCD monitors are not capable of rendering a screen with refresh rates lower than 60Hz. Use one of the following methods to resolve this issue: • Use a monitor capable of 55Hz refresh rates. Virtually all analog monitors and the majority of LCD monitors are capable of this.
Figure 3-17 Console Setup Flowchart Preparation There are several tasks to perform before you can configure the iLO 2 MP LAN. • Determine the physical access method to select and connect cables. • Determine the iLO 2 MP LAN configuration method and assign an IP address if necessary. Determining the Physical iLO 2 MP Access Method Before you can access the iLO 2 MP, you must first determine the correct physical connection method. The iLO 2 MP has a separate LAN port from the system LAN port.
LAN drop, IP address, and networking information from that of the port used by the operating system. Figure 3-18 shows the server rear ports.

Emulation terminal device (for example, a PC, laptop, or ASCII terminal) LAN port 10/100 LAN cable Determining the iLO 2 MP LAN Configuration Method To access the iLO 2 MP through the iLO 2 MP LAN, the iLO 2 MP must acquire an IP address.
• • • • DHCP must be enabled (DHCP is enabled by default). You are using a DHCP server that provides the domain name. The primary DNS server accepts dynamic DNS (DDNS) updates. The primary DNS server IP address has been configured through the DHCP server. IMPORTANT: You must know the DNS domain name, which is served out by the DHCP server, unless it’s domain is local or the same domain. To configure the iLO 2 MP using DHCP and DNS, follow these steps: 1.
NOTE: ARP Ping operational issues: • The PC and the server must be on the same physical subnet. • When a new server is first booted, DHCP is automatically available (factory-set default); but ARP Ping does not start for three minutes after the iLO 2 MP is booted. This applies to every subsequent boot of the iLO 2 MP until an IP address is obtained by DHCP or has been assigned by using the LC command. • Upon successfully assigning an IP address using ARP Ping, DHCP is automatically disabled.
ping 192.0.2.1 7. 8. Use the IP address to connect to the iLO 2 MP LAN. Use Web or telnet access to connect to the iLO 2 MP from a host on the local subnet and complete the rest of the LAN parameter (gateway, subnet). Configuring the iLO 2 MP LAN Using the RS-232 Serial Port To configure the iLO 2 MP LAN using the RS-232 serial port, follow these steps: IMPORTANT: Do not configure duplicate IP addresses on different servers within the same network.
8. Use the LC command to disable DHCP. a. From the LC command menu, type D and press Enter. b. Follow the instructions on the screen to change the DHCP status from Enabled to Disabled. c. Enter XD -R to reset the iLO 2 MP. 9. Use the LC command to enter information for the IP address, host, subnet mask, gateway parameters, and so on. 10. Enter XD -R to reset the iLO 2 MP. 11. After the iLO 2 MP resets, log in to the iLO 2 MP again and enter CM at the MP:> prompt. 12.

5 Troubleshooting This chapter provides preferred strategies, procedures, and tools for troubleshooting rx3600 server error and fault conditions.
NOTE: The Front Panel Health LEDs will be flashing amber with a warning indication, or flashing red with a fault indication. — — System Alert on console? Analyze the alert by using the system event log (SEL), to identify the last error logged by the server. Use the iLO 2 MP commands to view the SEL, using either the iLO 2 MP’s serial text interface, telnet, SSH, or web GUI on the iLO 2 MP LAN. At this point, you will have a good idea about which area of the system requires further analysis.

Figure 5-4 rx3600 with PCI/PCI-X/PCIe I/O System Block Diagram There are two types of CRUs in the rx3600 server: externally accessible CRUs (eCRUs) and internally accessible CRUs (iCRUs): The following are the eCRUs in the rx3600 server: • • • • • Bulk power supply 1 and 21 Console device Power cords Modems/UPS DVD and 2.
• • • • • • FP and Diagnostic LED board HBAs (optional) I/O VRM Cooling Fans 1-31 Midplane board Interconnect board System Build-Up Troubleshooting Procedure If the system powers on and remains powered on, but does not enter into or pass POST or does not boot to the EFI menu, follow these steps: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. Remove the ac power cord from each bulk power supply. Extend the server from the chassis, if the chassis is racked.
Each physical CPU core contains logic to support two physical threads. This results in up to eight physical threads, or the equivalent of 8 logical CPUs, when two processor modules are installed and enabled in rx3600 servers. The operating system kernel attaches one or more software processes to each available thread. In multiple processor servers, having more threads means all software processes are launched and executed faster.

NOTE: To copy a particular array configuration to several other servers on the same network, use the Array Configuration Replicator (ACR) or the scripting capability of ACU. ACR is provided in the SmartStart Scripting Toolkit, available on the HP Web site at: http://www.hp.com/servers/sstoolkit. Whichever utility you use, the following limitations apply: • For the most efficient use of drive space, do not mix drives of different capacities within the same array.
ORCA Utility To use ORCA, follow these steps: 1. Power on the server. POST runs, and any array controllers that are in the server are initialized one at a time. During each controller initialization process, POST halts for several seconds while an ORCA prompt message displays. 2. At the ORCA prompt: • If you are connected using a headless console, press the Esc+8 combination. • Otherwise, press F8. The ORCA Main Menu displays, enabling you to create, view, or delete a logical drive.
5. Press Enter to continue. You can now create another logical drive by repeating the previous steps. NOTE: Newly created logical drives are invisible to the operating system. To make the new logical drives available for data storage, format them using the instructions given in the operating system documentation.

point to the file to be loaded. These variables contain application-specific data that is passed directly to the EFI application. EFI variables provides system firmware with a boot menu that points to all the operating systems, even multiple versions of the same operating system. The EFI Boot Manager enables you to control the server boot environment. Depending on boot option configuration after the server is powered up, the Boot Manager presents you with different ways to bring up the system.
