Further information about drivers is provided in the readme files on the hard disk, on the supplied “ServerStart“ or “Update“ CDs.
2 Important notes In this chapter you will find essential information regarding safety when working with your server. V CAUTION! With the system board installed you must open the system to access the system board. How to access the system board of your system is described in the appropriate service supplement. When handling the system board, refer to the specific notes on safety in the operating manual and/or service supplement for the respective server. 2.
Notes on safety V Important notes ● Components can become very hot during operation. Ensure you do not touch components when making extensions to the system board. There is a danger of burns!. ● Transmission lines to peripheral devices must be adequately shielded. ● To the LAN wiring the requirements apply in accordance with the standards EN 50173 and EN 50174-1/2.
Important notes Notes on safety Modules with electrostatic-sensitive components Systems and components that might be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD) are marked with the following label: Figure 1: ESD label When you handle components fitted with ESDs, you must observe the following points under all circumstances: ● You must always discharge yourself of static charges (e.g. by touching a grounded object) before working. ● The equipment and tools you use must be free of static charges.
CE Certificate Important notes Notes about boards ● During installation/deinstallation of the system board, observe the specific instructions described in the service manual for the server. ● Remove the plug from the mains outlet so that system and system board are totally disconnected from the mains voltage. ● To prevent damage to the system board, the components and conductors on it, please take great care when you insert or remove boards.
Important notes 2.3 Environmental Protection Environmental Protection Environmentally friendly product design and development This product has been designed in accordance with standards for ”environmentally friendly product design and development“. This means that the designers have taken into account important criteria such as durability, selection of materials and coding, emissions, packaging, the ease with which the product can be dismantled and the extent to which it can be recycled.
Environmental Protection Important notes Returning, recycling and disposal The device may not be disposed of with household rubbish.

Overview Features The TPM is activated via the BIOS system (for more information, refer to the Fujitsu Siemens Computers BIOS manual). V CAUTION! – When using the TPM, note the program descriptions provided by the third party manufacturers. – You must also create a backup of the TPM content. To do this, follow the third party manufacturer's instructions. Without this backup, if the TPM or the system board is faulty you will not be able to access your data.
Features 3.2 Main memory Main memory The system board supports up to 64 Gbyte main memory. Two slots for riser cards with 8 FBD slots each are available . Each memory bank can be populated with two 512 Mbyte, 1 Gbyte, 2 Gbyte or 4 Gbyte FBD PC2-4200F or FDB PC2-5300F fully buffered DIMM memory modules. ECC with memory scrubbing and with the Single Device Data Correction (SDDC) function is supported. I You will find the descriptions how to install memory modules in the Options Guide of your server.

Features Main memory Non-mirrored mode Using one riser card the module population is as follows: 1A + 1B (minimum configuration) - 2A + 2B - 3A + 3B - 4A + 4B Using two riser cards the population can be alternating (higher performance) or consecutive.
PCI(e) slots Features Sparing mode Only one riser card is required for the sparing mode. The last populated bank will be in hotspare mode. 1A + 1B, 2A +2B minimum configuration, bank 2 in hotspare mode 1A + 1B, 2A +2B, 3A +3B upgrade 1, bank 3 in hotspare mode 1A + 1B, 2A +2B, 3A +3B, 4A + 4B upgrade 2, bank 4 in hotspare mode 3.
