TP02202 Figure 20. Installing the Processor Air Duct Installing and Removing Memory The silkscreen on the board for the DIMMs displays DIMM A1, DIMM A2, DIMM B1, DIMM B2, DIMM C1, DIMM C2, DIMM D1 and DIMM D2 starting from the center of the board. Contact your SGI representative for qualified memory components. Configuration Rules If you are changing the memory configuration, ensure that you follow the rules specified in this section.
Memory Layout The memory controller hub (MCH) supports fully buffered DIMM (FBDIMM) in dualchannel mode. There are a maximum of eight DIMMs in each node board and DIMMs must be populated in groups of two (a DIMM pair). There are four DIMM pairs as follows: • • • • DIMM pair 1: A1 and B1 DIMM pair 2: C1 and D1 DIMM pair 3: A2 and B2 DIMM pair 4: C2 and D2 A minimum of one DIMM pair must be installed. Figure 21 illustrates the minimum population for such a configuration.
Performance Optimization The primary rule for installing DIMMs to obtain maximum performance is the following: Balance the DIMM memory capacity across both memory branches. As illustrated in Figure 21, the MCH has memory Branch 0 and Branch 1. DIMMs A1, A2, B1, and B2 are on Branch 0 and DIMMs C1, C2, D1, and D2 are on Branch 1. If the total memory capacity of the DIMMs on each branch is not balanced, the memory performance will be degraded by approximately 25% and , in some cases, 40%.
Memory Sparing Mode To select memory sparing mode, you must select sparing in the BIOS setup: Advanced --> Memory --> Configure Memory RAS and Performance Figure 22 illustrates the standard DIMM population for sparing mode. Branch 0 Channel A Branch 1 Channel B Channel C Channel D Mirroring Sparing Possible Possible DIMM A1 DIMM A2 DIMM B1 DIMM B2 DIMM C1 DIMM C2 DIMM D1 DIMM D2 yes yes yes yes Figure 22.
Installing DIMMs To install DIMMs, follow these steps: 1. Observe the safety and ESD precautions in “Safety Information”. 2. Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the server. Turn off the server. 3. Disconnect the AC power cord(s) from the server. 4. Remove the server's cover. See “Removing and Installing the System Cover” for instructions on removing the server's cover. 5. Locate the DIMM sockets (see Figure 23).
6. Make sure the clips at either end of the DIMM socket(s) are pushed outward to the open position (see letter “A” in the figure above). 7. Holding the DIMM by the edges, remove it from its anti-static package. 8. Position the DIMM above the socket. Align the notch on the bottom edge of the DIMM with the key in the DIMM socket. The arrow in the inset in Figure 23 is pointing to the key in the socket (see letter “B” in the figure above). 9. Insert the bottom edge of the DIMM into the socket. 10.
Caution: Protective socket cover needs to be removed for proper cooling of the processor; failure to remove the cover could result in damage to the system. Installing the Processor To install a processor, follow these instructions: 1. Observe the safety and ESD precautions in “Safety Information”. 2. Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the server. Turn off the server. 3. Disconnect the AC power cord(s) from the server. 4. Remove the server's cover.
A B TP02075 Figure 25. Installing the Processor Note: Do not touch the socket pins; they are very sensitive and easily damaged. 7. Align the corresponding marks on the processor and the socket and insert the processor into the socket. Note: Make sure the alignment triangle mark and the alignment triangle cutout align correctly. 8. Remove the protective socket cover (see Figure 26). Note: Retain the protective socket cover for use when removing a processor that will not be replaced.
Replacing Thermal Interface Material The Intel Xeon processors used in your server require a thermal interface material (TIM) between the processors and heat sinks to properly dissipate the heat that is generated by the processors. If you replace a processor and/or heat sink, you will need to remove the existing TIM from the processor and heat sink. Then, you will need to apply new TIM to the processor before you install the heat sink. The TIM application instructions accompany the new TIM.
Removing TIM from a Processor You should always remove the TIM from a processor before you remove it from the node board. Warning: Always wear gloves when performing this procedure to avoid direct skin contact with the TIM, which is a potentially toxic material.
2. Gently push any loose TIM pieces to the center of the processor. 3. Use a dry lint-free cloth to lift the loose TIM pieces off of the processor.
4. Use a dry, lint-free cloth to wipe any remaining TIM pieces off of the processor. 5. Use a different lint-free cloth moistened with isopropyl alcohol (IPA) to remove any remaining TIM from the processor. Note: Be sure to remove TIM from the gaps between the processor and the load plate.
Removing TIM from a Heat Sink If you plan re-use the heat sink with a replacement processor, you need to remove the TIM from the heat sink. Warning: Always wear gloves when performing this procedure to avoid direct skin contact with the TIM, which is a potentially toxic material. Tools/Parts Required: • Dry, lint-free cloth • Lint-free cloth moistened with isopropyl alcohol • Gloves Perform the following steps to remove the TIM from a heat sink: 1.
3. Use a different lint-free cloth moistened with isopropyl alcohol (IPA) to remove any remaining TIM from the heat sink.
Installing the Heat Sink(s) To install a heat sink, use the following instructions: 1. Ensure that you have replaced the heat sink’s TIM. See the preceding section “Replacing Thermal Interface Material”. 2. Set the heat sink over the processor, lining up the four captive screws with the four posts surrounding the processor. 3. Loosely screw in the captive screws on the heat sink corners in a diagonal manner. Do not fully tighten one screw before tightening another. 4.

Appendix B: Troubleshooting This chapter helps you identify and solve problems that might occur while you are using the system. For any issue, first ensure you are using the latest firmware and files. Firmware upgrades include updates for BIOS, the Baseboard Management Controller (BMC), and the hotswap controller (HSC). In addition to the server firmware and files, also update any drivers used for components you have installed in your system, such as video drivers, network drivers, and SATA drivers.
Problems Following Initial System Installation Problems that occur at initial system startup are usually caused by an incorrect installation or configuration. Hardware failure is a less frequent cause. If the problem you are experiencing is with a specific software application, see “Problems with Newly Installed Application Software”. First Steps Checklist • Is AC power available at the wall outlet? • Are the power supplies plugged in? Check the AC cable(s) on the back of the chassis and at the AC source.
Hardware Diagnostic Testing This section provides a more detailed approach to identifying a hardware problem and locating its source. Caution: Turn off devices before disconnecting cables: Before disconnecting any peripheral cables from the system, turn off the system and any external peripheral devices. Failure to do so can cause permanent damage to the system and/or the peripheral devices. 1. Turn off the system and all external peripheral devices.
Specific Problems and Corrective Actions This section provides possible solutions for these specific problems: • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Power light does not light. Status light is amber, red, or blinking. No characters appear on screen. Characters appear distorted or incorrect. Cannot connect to a server. You have other network problems. System cooling fans do not rotate properly. Drive Activity light does not light. DVD-ROM drive activity light does not light.
• Make sure the processor(s) have been populated according to the system requirements. • Remove the processor(s) and re-seat them. • Make sure the chassis standoffs are installed only below mounting holes. Misplaced standoffs can contact the pins on the bottom of the server board and cause a short. Status Light Amber, Red, or Blinking To see if any light-guided diagnostic LEDs are lit, leave the power on and open the system cover.
4. If there are still no characters on the screen after you reboot the system and POST emits a beep code, write down the beep code you hear. This information is useful for your service representative. 5. If you do not receive a beep code and characters do not appear, the video display monitor or video controller may have failed. Contact your service representative or authorized dealer for help.
Drive Activity Light Does Not Light Check the following: • • • • Are the drive's power and signal cables properly installed? Are all relevant switches and jumpers on the drive set correctly? Is the drive properly configured? Is the drive activity light always on? If so, the signal cable may be plugged in incorrectly.
Problems with Network The server hangs when the drivers are loaded • Certain drivers may require interrupts that are not shared with other PCI drivers. For these drivers, it may be necessary to alter settings so that interrupts are not shared. See the documentation that came with your PCI card(s) for information on changing interrupts. Diagnostics pass but the connection fails • Make sure the network cable is securely attached. • Make sure you specify the correct frame type in your NET.CFG file.
Problems with Newly Installed Application Software Problems that occur when you run new application software are usually related to the software, not the server hardware. Faulty equipment is unlikely, especially if other software runs correctly. Check the following: • Make sure the system meets the minimum hardware requirements for the software. See the software documentation. • Make sure the software is properly installed and configured for the system. See the software documentation.
