the user may be required to take appropriate measures. VCCI-A

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors

The aluminum electrolytic capacitors used in the product's printed circuit board
assemblies and in the mouse and keyboard are limited-life components. Use of
these components beyond their operating life may result in electrolyte leakage
or depletion, potentially causing emission of foul odor or smoke.
As a guideline, in a normal office environment (25°C) operating life is not
expected to be reached within the maintenance support period (5 years).
However, operating life may be reached more quickly if, for example, the
product is used in a hot environment. The customer shall bear the cost of
replacing replaceable components which have exceeded their operating life.
Note that these are only guidelines, and do not constitute a guarantee of
trouble-free operation during the maintenance support period.

This product has been designed and manufactured to be used in commercial
and/or industrial areas as a server.
When used as visual display workplace, it must not be placed in the direct field
of view to avoid incommoding reflections (applies only to TX server systems).
The device has not been designed or manufactured for uses which demand an
extremely high level of safety and carry a direct and serious risk of life or body
if such safety cannot be assured.

Before installing and starting up a server, please observe the safety
instructions listed in the following section. This will help you to avoid
making serious errors that could impair your health, damage the server
and endanger the data base.

3.1 Safety instructions

I The following safety instructions are also provided in the manual "Safety
Notes and Regulations" or " 安全上のご注意 ".
This server meets the relevant safety regulations for IT equipment. If you have
any questions about whether you can install the server in the intended
environment, please contact your sales outlet or our customer service team.
● The actions described in this manual shall be performed by technical
specialists. A technical specialist is a person who is trained to install the
server including hardware and software.
● Repairs to the server that do not relate to CSS failures shall be performed
by service personnel. Please note that unauthorized interference with the
server will void the warranty and exempt the manufacturer from all liability.
● Any failure to observe the guidelines in this manual, and any improper
repairs could expose the user to risks (electric shock, energy hazards, fire
hazards) or damage the equipment.
● Only valid for non hot-plug components
Before installing/removing internal components to/from the server, turn off
the server, all peripheral devices, and any other connected devices. Also

electric shock or damage.

TX1310 M3 Upgrade and Maintenance Manual 29

Important information

Before starting up
● During installation and before operating the server, observe the instructions
on environmental conditions for your server.
● If the server is brought in from a cold environment, condensation may form
both inside and on the outside of the server.
Wait until the server has acclimatized to room temperature and is absolutely
dry before starting it up. Material damage may be caused to the server if this
requirement is not observed.
● Only transport the server in its original packaging or in packaging that
protects it from impacts and jolts.
In Japan and APAC, transporting the server in its original packaging does
not apply.

Installation and operation

● This server should not be operated in ambient temperatures above 35 °C.
For servers with Advanced Thermal Design the ambient temperature can
increase to 40 °C or 45 °C.
● If the server is integrated into an installation that draws power from an
industrial power supply network with an IEC309 connector, the power
supply's fuse protection must comply with the requirements for non-
industrial power supply networks for type A connectors.
● The server automatically adjusts itself to a mains voltage, see the type label
of your server. Ensure that the local mains voltage lies within these limits.
● This server must only be connected to properly grounded power outlets or
connected to the grounded rack internal power distribution server with
tested and approved power cords.
● Ensure that the server is connected to a properly grounded power outlet
close to the server.
● Ensure that the power sockets on the server and the properly grounded
power outlets are easily accessible.
● The On/Off button or the main power switch (if present) does not isolate the
server from the mains power supply. In case of repair or servicing disconnect
the server completely from the mains power supply, unplug all power plugs
from the properly grounded power outlets.

30 Upgrade and Maintenance Manual TX1310 M3

 Important information

● Always connect the server and the attached peripheral devices to the same
power circuit. Otherwise you run the risk of losing data if, for example, the
server is still running but a peripheral device (e.g. memory subsystem) fails
during a power outage.
● The adequately shielded data cables must be used.
All data and signal cables must have sufficient shielding. The use of cable
type S/FTP Cat5 or higher is recommended.
Use of unshielded or badly shielded cables may lead to increased emission
of interference and/or reduced fault-tolerance of the device.
● Ethernet cabling has to comply with EN 50173 and EN 50174-1/2 standards
or ISO/IEC 11801 standard respectively. The minimum requirement is a
Category 5 shielded cable for 10/100 Ethernet, or a Category 5e cable for
Gigabit Ethernet.
● Route the cables in such a way that they do not create a potential hazard
(make sure no-one can trip over them) and that they cannot be damaged.
When connecting the server, refer to the relevant instructions in this manual.
● Never connect or disconnect data transmission lines during a storm (risk of
lightning hazard).
● Make sure that no objects (e.g. jewelry, paperclips etc.) or liquids can get
inside the server (risk of electric shock, short circuit).
● In emergencies (e.g. damaged casing, controls or cables, penetration of
liquids or foreign bodies), contact the server administrator or your customer
service team. Only disconnect the server from the mains power supply if
there is no risk of harming yourself.
● Proper operation of the server (in accordance with IEC 60950-1 resp.
EN 60950-1) is only ensured if the server is completely assembled and the
rear covers for the installation slots have been fitted (electric shock, cooling,
fire protection, interference suppression).
● Only install server expansions that satisfy the requirements and rules
governing safety and electromagnetic compatibility and those relating to
telecommunication terminals. If you install other expansions, they may
damage the server or violate the safety regulations. Information on which
server expansions are approved for installation can be obtained from our
customer service center or your sales outlet.
● The components marked with a warning notice (e.g. lightning symbol) may
only be opened, removed or exchanged by authorized, qualified personnel.
Exception: CSS components can be replaced.

TX1310 M3 Upgrade and Maintenance Manual 31

5 Basic software procedures

5.1 Starting the maintenance task

5.1.1 Suspending BitLocker functionality

BitLocker Drive Encryption provides protection for operating system and data
drives by encrypting the contents and requiring users to authenticate their
credentials to access the information. In the scenario described here, BitLocker
uses the compatible Trusted Platform Module (TPM) to detect if the computer's
startup process has been modified from its original state.
I For more information on how to use BitLocker on a computer without a
compatible TPM, see the "BitLocker Drive Encryption" documentation
page at http://technet.microsoft.com/library/cc731549.aspx.
Suspending BitLocker Drive Encryption is a temporary method for removing
BitLocker protection without decrypting the drive Windows is installed on.
Suspend BitLocker before modifying the server’s hardware configuration or
startup files. Resume BitLocker again after the maintenance procedure is
complete.
V CAUTION!
– With BitLocker features enabled, modifying the system configuration
(hardware or firmware settings) may render the system inaccessible.
The system may enter Recovery Mode and require a 48-digits
recovery password to return to normal operation.
Ensure that you suspend BitLocker drive encryption before
maintaining the server.
– When suspended, BitLocker uses a plain text key instead of the
Trusted Platform Module (TPM) to read encrypted files. Keep in mind
that information on this drive is not secure until BitLocker has been
re-enabled.
Ê Ask the system administrator to suspend BitLocker-protection on the system
volume, using the BitLocker Drive Encryption control panel item.
I This will temporarily disable BitLocker for maintenance purposes.
The volume will not be decrypted and no keys will be discarded.

5.2.5 Verifying the system time settings

I This task only applies to Linux and VMware environments.

After the system board has been replaced, the system time is set automatically.
By default, the RTC (Real Time Clock) time standard is set as the local time.
If a Linux/VMware OS is used and the hardware clock has been configured as
UTC (Universal Time, Coordinated) in the operating system, the BMC local time
may not be mapped correctly.
Ê After replacing the system board, ask the system administrator whether the
RTC or UTC time standard is to be used as system time.
I If the system time (RTC) is set to UTC, the SEL (System Event Log)
time stamps may differ from the local time.
Ê Enter the BIOS.
Ê Select the Main menu.
Ê Under System Time and System Date specify the correct time and date.
I By default, the system time set in the BIOS is RTC (Real Time Clock)
local time. If your IT infrastructure relies on universally accepted time
standards, set the System Time to UTC (Universal Time, Coordinated)
instead. Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) can be considered equivalent
to UTC.
Ê Save your changes and exit the BIOS.

5.2.7 Updating the NIC configuration file in a Linux and

VMware environment

In order to prevent errors caused by changing network device names (eth<x>),

it is recommended to store the MAC address (hardware address) of a network
interface card in the related NIC configuration file of the Linux/VMware OS.
When replacing a network controller or the system board with onboard LAN
controllers in a server running Linux/VMware OS, the MAC address will change
but not automatically be updated in the definition file.
In order to prevent communication problems, it is necessary to update the
changed MAC address stored in the related ifcfg-eth<x> definition file.
To update the MAC address, proceed as follows:
I Procedures may differ depending on your Linux/VMware OS or the
definition file on the client system. Use the following information as
reference. Ask the system administrator to change the definition file.
Ê After replacing a network controller or the system board, switch on and boot
the server as described in section "Switching on the server" on page 57.
kudzu, the hardware configuration tool for Red Hat Linux, will launch at boot
and detect the new and/or changed hardware on your system.
I kudzu may not launch at boot depending on the client’s environment.
Ê Select Keep Configuration and Ignore to complete the boot process.
Ê Use the vi text editor to specify the MAC address in the HWADDR section of
the ifcfg-eth<x> file:
I The MAC address can be found on the type label attached to the
system board or network controller.

Example:
In order to modify the definition file for network controller 1, enter the
following command:
# vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1
In vi, specify the new MAC address as follows:
HWADDR=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
Ê Save and close the definition file.

TX1310 M3 Upgrade and Maintenance Manual 69

Basic software procedures

Ê For the changes to take effect, you need to reboot the network by entering
the following command:
# service network restart
I If the system board or network controller offers multiple LAN ports, it is
necessary to update the remaining ifcfg-eth<x> definition files
accordingly.
Ê Update the NIC configuration file to reflect the new card sequence and MAC
address.

5.2.8 Resuming BitLocker functionality

If BitLocker Drive Encryption has been suspended for maintenance purposes

(see section "Suspending BitLocker functionality" on page 61), it has to be re-
enabled to complete the service task.
I If BitLocker Drive Encryption has been suspended prior to replacing
components you won't be asked for a recovery key when rebooting the
server after the maintenance task. However, if BitLocker functionality has
not been suspended, Windows will enter recovery mode and ask you to
input recovery key for further booting.
Ê In this case, ask the system administrator to enter the recovery key in
order to boot the operating system.
Ê Ask the system administrator to enable the previously suspended BitLocker-
protection on the system volume, using the BitLocker Drive Encryption control
panel item:

For Windows Server 2008:

Ê Click Start - Control Panel - Security, - BitLocker Drive Encryption to open
the BitLocker Drive Encryption.
Ê Select the system volume, and click Turn On BitLocker.

For Windows Server 2008 R2 and above:

Ê Click Start - Control Panel - System and Security - BitLocker Drive Encryption
to open the BitLocker Drive Encryption.
Ê Select the system volume, and click Resume Protection.

 Main memory

10.1.1 Memory sequence

– Populate memory slot 1 / channel A (CHA1) first.

– Within both channels, memory slot 1 must be populated prior to slot 2.
– If memory modules with different capacities are used:
– Install modules with higher capacities first.
– Within a channel, install modules in descending order of capacity.
– If memory modules with different speeds are used, the lowest clock rate
applies for all DIMMs.

Table 5: Mounting order

10.1.2 Modes of operation

– The maximum performance can be achieved in a symmetric dual-channel

configuration. Therefore both channels have to be populated with the same
amount of memory. The DRAM device technology (1 Gbit / 2 Gbit / 4 Gbit)
may vary from one channel to the other.
– If the amount of memory differs between the two channels, the system board
will run in dual-channel asymmetric mode.
– Regardless of the mode, all DIMMs will run at the highest common
frequency that is allowed by the SPD Data of the DIMMs and the maximum
speed of the selected configuration.
– Single-channel mode is used if one memory module is populated in CHA1.
