Customer self repair

HP products are designed with many Customer Self Repair (CSR) parts to minimize repair time and allow for greater flexibility in performing defective parts replacement. If during the diagnosis period HP (or HP service providers or service partners) identifies that the repair can be accomplished by the use of a CSR part, HP will ship that part directly to you for replacement. There are two categories of CSR parts:

• Mandatory—Parts for which customer self repair is mandatory. If you request HP to replace these parts, you will be charged for the travel and labor costs of this service.
• Optional—Parts for which customer self repair is optional. These parts are also designed for customer self repair. If, however, you require that HP replace them for you, there may or may not be additional charges, depending on the type of warranty service designated for your product.

NOTE: Some HP parts are not designed for customer self repair. In order to satisfy the customer warranty, HP requires that an authorized service provider replace the part. These parts are identified as "No" in the Illustrated Parts Catalog.

Based on availability and where geography permits, CSR parts will be shipped for next business day delivery. Same day or four-hour delivery may be offered at an additional charge where geography permits. If assistance is required, you can call the HP Technical Support Center and a technician will help you over the telephone. HP specifies in the materials shipped with a replacement CSR part whether a defective part must be returned to HP. In cases where it is required to return the defective part to HP, you must ship the defective part back to HP within a defined period of time, normally five (5) business days. The defective part must be returned with the associated documentation in the provided shipping material. Failure to return the defective part may result in HP billing you for the replacement. With a customer self repair, HP will pay all shipping and part return costs and determine the courier/carrier to be used.

For more information about HP's Customer Self Repair program, contact your local service provider. For the North American program, refer to the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/selfrepair).

Parts only warranty service

Your HP Limited Warranty may include a parts only warranty service. Under the terms of parts only warranty service, HP will provide replacement parts free of charge.

For parts only warranty service, CSR part replacement is mandatory. If you request HP to replace these parts, you will be charged for the travel and labor costs of this service.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from electric shock, remove all power cords to completely disconnect power from the system.

Electrostatic discharge information

An electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage static-sensitive devices or microcircuitry. Proper packaging and grounding techniques are necessary precautions to prevent damage. To prevent electrostatic damage, observe the following precautions:

• Transport products in static-safe containers such as conductive tubes, bags, or boxes.
• Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free stations.
• Cover workstations with approved static-dissipating material. Use a wrist strap connected to the work surface, and properly grounded (earthed) tools and equipment.
• Keep work area free of nonconductive materials, such as ordinary plastic assembly aids and foam packing.
• Make sure that you are always properly grounded (earthed) when touching a static-sensitive component or assembly.
• Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
  • Always place drives with the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) assembly-side down.
• Use conductive field service tools.

Pre-installation procedure

Perform the steps below before you open the server or before you remove or replace any component.

1. Perform data backup.
2. Turn off the server and all the peripherals connected to it.
3. Unplug all cables from the power outlets to avoid exposure to high energy levels that may cause burns when parts are short circuited by metal objects such as tools or jewelry. If necessary, label each cable to expedite reassembly.
4. Disconnect all telecommunication cables to avoid exposure to shock hazard from ringing voltages.
5. Open the server according to the instructions described in the "System covers" section later in this chapter.
6. Follow the ESD precautions listed previously in this chapter when handling any hardware component.

IMPORTANT: To streamline the configuration process, read through the entire installation/removal procedure first and make sure you understand it before you begin.

Post-installation procedure

Perform the steps below after installing or removing a server component.

1. Be sure all components are installed according to the described step-by-step instructions.
2. Check to make sure you have not left loose tools or parts inside the server.
3. Reinstall any expansion board, peripheral, and system cables that have previously been removed.

△ CAUTION: Do not operate the server for more than ten minutes with the access panel and disk drives removed. Otherwise, improper cooling airflow may damage the system components.

1. Reinstall the system covers.
2. Connect all external cables and the AC power cord to the system.
3. Press the power button ⏻ on the front panel to turn on the server.

Powering down the server

The server does not completely power down when the power button ⏻ is pressed. The button toggles between On and Standby. The standby position removes power from most electronics and the drives, but some internal circuitry remains active. To completely remove all power from the system, disconnect all power cords from the server.

WARNING: Hazardous voltages are present inside the server. Always disconnect AC power from the server and other associated assemblies while working inside the unit. Serious injury may result if this warning is not observed.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:
- Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important safety feature.
- Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is easily accessible at all times.
- Unplug the power cord from the power supply to disconnect power to the equipment.
- Do not route the power cord where it can be walked on or pinched by items placed against it. Pay particular attention to the plug, electrical outlet, and the point where the cord extends from the server.

CAUTION: Protect the server from power fluctuations and temporary interruptions with a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS). This device protects the hardware from damage caused by power surges and voltage spikes, and keeps the system in operation during a power failure.

1. Shut down the server as directed by the operating system documentation.
2. Press the power button ⏻ to toggle to Standby.
   This places the server in standby mode changing the power LED indicator to amber. In this mode, the main power supply output is disabled. Standby does not completely disable or remove power from the system.
3. Disconnect the AC power cord from the AC outlet and then from the server.
4. Check that the power LED indicator is turned off and that the fan noise has stopped.
5. Disconnect all external peripheral devices from the server.

Cable management

Always follow good cable management practices when working inside the computer.

• Keep cables away from major heat sources like the heat sink.
• Do not jam cables on top of expansion cards or memory modules. Printed circuit cards are not designed to withstand excessive pressure.
• Keep cables clear of sliding or moveable parts to prevent cutting or crimping.
• When folding a flat ribbon cable, never fold to a sharp crease. Sharp creases may damage the wires.
  • Some flat ribbon cables come prefolded. Never change the folds on these cables.
• Do not sharply bend any cable. A sharp bend can break the internal wires.
• Never bend a SATA data cable tighter than a 30 mm (1.18 in.) radius.
• Never crease a SATA data cable.
• Do not rely on components like the drive cage, power supply, or system cover to push cables down into the chassis.

To disconnect a power supply cable from the system board:

△

CAUTION: Always pull the connector. NEVER pull on the cable. Pulling on the cable can damage the cable and result in a failed power supply.

1. Squeeze on the top of the retaining latch attached to the cable end of the connector.
2. Grasp the cable end of the connector and pull it straight up.

Processor installation guidelines

When configuring the processor, observe the following important guidelines:

• Handle the processor and heat sink with care. Damage to either may prevent the system from functioning properly.
• Never touch the bottom surface of the processor or the contact pins on the processor socket; contaminant on these areas can damage the processor.
• Be sure that the server has the most recent ROM version. Failure to flash the ROM before installing processors can cause system failure.

Processor installation

⚠ WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the heat sink and the processor to cool before touching them.

CAUTION: To prevent the heat sink from tilting to one side during installation/removal procedures, observe a diagonally opposite pattern (an "X" pattern) when loosening and tightening the four spring loaded screws.

The procedure for replacing the current processor consists of five major steps which are as follows:

1. Remove the heat sink.
2. Remove the current processor.
3. Apply the thermal compound.
4. Install the new processor.
5. Install the heat sink.

To remove the heat sink:

1. Prior to removing the heat sink, power on the system for a few minutes to soften the thermal compound, so that the heat sink can easily be removed.
2. Perform the pre-installation procedure.
3. Remove the air baffle.

1. Lay the heat sink down in an upright position.

To remove the old processor:

1. Rotate the load lever to the open position.
2. Open the retention plate to expose the socket body.
3. Gently lift the processor out of its socket.

Diagram of a computer processor internal structure with numbered components and directional arrows indicating assembly or movement.

1. Place the old processor on a static-dissipating work surface or inside an anti-static bag.

To apply thermal compound:

Perform the procedure below only if you will be using the same heat sink as before. If you are using a new one, there is no need to apply thermal compound as there is already a preapplied thermal compound in the new heat sink.

CAUTION: Applying too little thermal compound will cause a gap between the contact surfaces. This means that the heat sink is not even in direct contact with the processor, and therefore its capacity to draw out heat is greatly reduced. Furthermore, applying too much compound can make it squish out from the sides and go all over the processor pins or to the system board when the heat sink is installed. The compound may cause electrical shorts that can damage the system.

1. Use the alcohol pad (included in the new processor spare kit) to clean the contact surfaces on the heat sink and the new processor. Wipe the contact surfaces several times to make sure that no particles or dust contaminants are evident. Allow the alcohol to evaporate before continuing.
   △ CAUTION: Do not touch the contact surfaces as this may leave dead skin cells or oils from your finger that can result in poor thermal compound performance.
2. Apply 0.5 gram (0.25 ml) of the thermal compound evenly onto the top of the processor. The figure below shows the correct pattern of applying the thermal compound.

Two identical rectangular panels: one with a dice and four dots, the other with a stylized 'S' inside (no text or symbols)

To install the new processor:

1. With the load lever and the retention plate still disengaged, align the processor with the socket and install the processor.

Make sure that the two notches and the orientation arrow on the processor are properly aligned with the tabs and beveled corner of the socket.

1. Close down the retention plate.

2. Rotate the load lever to the lock position.

To install the heat sink:

CAUTION: To prevent overheating or a possible system crash, use only a heat sink specified for your ProLiant server.

1. If you are using a new heat sink, remove the cover protecting the preapplied thermal compound. Be careful not to touch or scratch the thermal compound.

2. Install the heat sink.

a. Insert the heat sink's spring-loaded screws into the system board holes (1).

b. Use the system screwdriver to tighten the spring-loaded screws (2).

The DIMM slots' holding clips are color-coded to indicate the correct population sequence in a single- or two-DIMM configuration.

- Black DIMM slots – DIMM CH1 C and DIMM CH2 D

• Blue DIMM slots – DIMM CH1 A and DIMM CH2 B

Memory installation guidelines

Observe the following important guidelines when installing memory modules:

• Use only HP supported 800 MHz unbuffered ECC DDR II DIMM in 512 MB, 1 GB, or 2 GB capacities.
• All DIMMs installed must be of the same speed.
  • Supported DIMM configurations include:

o Single DIMM (non-interleaving) – It must be installed in the DIMM CH1 A slot.
- Two DIMMs (interleaving) – Populate the blue DIMM slots (DIMM_CH1_A and DIMM_CH2_B).
- Four DIMMs – For optimum performance, the amount of memory in the black DIMM slots should be equal to the amount in the blue DIMM slots.

- DIMMs can be damaged by improper handling. Always use an anti-static wrist strap and grounding mat, and discharge static electricity before touching DIMMs.

To install a memory module:

1. Perform the pre-installation procedure.
2. If necessary, remove any accessory boards or cables that prevent access to the DIMM slots.
3. Locate an empty DIMM slot on the system board.
4. If necessary, open the holding clips of the selected DIMM slot.
5. Remove the memory module from its protective packaging, handling it by the edges.
6. Install the memory module.

a. Use both hands to hold the module by the edges, and then insert it perpendicularly into the slot (1). The DIMM slots are structured to ensure proper installation. If you insert a memory module but it does not fit easily into the slot, you may have inserted it incorrectly. Reverse the orientation of the module and insert it again.

b. Press the module at both ends to seat it fully into the slot (2).

The holding clips will automatically lock into place once the module has been seated properly.

Phoenix BIOS software

Your ProLiant server uses BIOS to boot up the system. Phoenix BIOS software is a ROM BIOS-based firmware that allows reliability, manageability, and connectivity for server platforms. This software contains a set of programs permanently stored in an EEPROM chipset located on the system board. These programs assist in managing, initializing, and testing the hardware devices installed on the computer.

The Phoenix BIOS software serves three functions:

• Configure the system from the Phoenix BIOS Setup Utility Using the Setup program, you can install, configure, and optimize the hardware devices on your system (clock, memory, disk drives, etc.). In addition, you can enable various features such as serial console redirection, PXE boot, and much more.
• Initialize hardware at boot using POST routines During power-on or warm reset, the software performs Power-On Self-Test (POST) routines to test components, to allocate resource for various hardware devices, and to prepare the system to boot to various operating systems.
• Perform run-time routines Using the software, perform basic hardware routines that can be called from DOS and Windows applications.

Configuring the system BIOS

NOTE: For ease of reading, Phoenix BIOS Setup Utility will be simply referred to as "Setup" or "Setup Utility" in this guide. Also, the screenshots used in this guide display various Setup menu screens with the default values identified. These values may not be the same as those in your server.

Phoenix BIOS Setup Utility is a hardware configuration program built into your system's Basic Input/Output System (BIOS). Since most systems are already properly configured and optimized, there is normally no need to run this utility.

You will need to run this utility under the following conditions:

• When changing the system configuration including:
• Setting the system time and date
  ○ Configuring the hard drives
  o Specifying the boot device sequence
  ○ Installing PCI expansion boards
• Upgrading the system BIOS
  ○ Configuring the power management modes
• Setting up system passwords or making other changes to the security setup

- When a configuration error is detected by the system and you are prompted (Run Setup message) to make changes to the BIOS settings.

NOTE: If you repeatedly receive Run Setup messages, the system battery may be defective. In this case, the system cannot retain configuration values in CMOS. Replace the system battery with a new one.

The Setup Utility loads the configuration values in a battery-backed nonvolatile memory called CMOS RAM. This memory area is not part of the system RAM, which allows configuration data to be retained when power is turned off. The values take effect when the system is booted. POST uses these values to configure the hardware. If the values and the actual hardware do not agree, POST generates an error message. You must run this utility to change the BIOS settings from the default or current configuration.

The Setup Utility has five primary menu selections, including:

- Main

- Boot

- Advanced

- Exit

- Security

To run the Setup Utility:

1. Turn on the monitor and the server.

If the server is already turned on, save your data and exit all open applications, and then restart the server.

1. During POST, press F10.

If you fail to press F10 before POST is completed, you will need to restart the server.

Updating/recovering the system BIOS

An interruption during the BIOS upgrade/recovery process (e.g. a power outage) can corrupt the BIOS code, which will cause the system to go into an unbootable state. Enabling the boot block program lets users restart the system and recover the regular BIOS code.

Use the JP5 jumper to enable the boot block.

• 1 - 2: Normal operation (default)

• 2 - 3: Configure BIOS

- Removed: Access the boot block code

Diagram showing a computer motherboard with labeled components and an inset view of the internal structure.

IMPORTANT: A power interruption during the BIOS update/recovery process can corrupt the system BIOS code. Make sure the server is connected to a UPS unit during the update process.

To perform a BIOS update/recovery:

1. Go to http://www.hp.com/go/support and download the System ROMPaq Firmware Upgrade Utility for your ProLiant server.

2. Use the ROMPaq Diskette Creator to create a bootable ROMPaq diskette which should contain the following files:

o CONFIG.sys
- CPQO2202.xxx
- CPQSRVR2.cpu
- ROMPAQ.exe

1. Insert the bootable ROMPaq diskette you created in a USB floppy drive.
2. Perform the pre-installation procedure.
3. Remove the PCI riser board assembly.
4. Locate the boot block jumper on the system board.
5. Remove the jumper block.
6. Connect the USB floppy drive with the bootable ROMPaq diskette to your ProLiant server.
7. Perform the post-installation procedure.

Once you power on the server, it will boot from the USB floppy drive and automatically execute BIOS update/recovery. The process will take approximately 20 to 30 minutes. When the USB floppy drive activity LED stops blinking, the process is complete.

1. Disconnect the USB floppy drive from the server.
2. Repeat steps 4 through 6.
3. Return the jumper block to its default 1-2 position.
4. Perform the post-installation procedure.

Recording custom Setup values

Keep a record of the custom Setup values you have set up for your system BIOS. If the custom values ever need restoring (after a CMOS clear, for example), you must run the Setup Utility and enter these custom settings again. Make sure to update this record whenever you make any change to these Setup settings or install new hardware.

To manually record the custom Setup values:

1. Access the Setup utility.
2. Go through each menu and submenus page, and press Print Screen to make a hard copy.
3. For multiple page menus, move to each page and print each screen.
   If a printer is not available, write down the values on a piece of paper. Make sure to write them down legibly and accurately.
4. Label and date the Setup values hard copy, and then store it in a safe and accessible place, preferably with other user documentation for your ProLiant server.

Loading system defaults

If your system fails after you make changes in the Setup menus, reboot the server, enter Setup and load the system default settings to correct the error. These default settings have been selected to optimize your server's performance.

To load the system defaults:

1. Reboot the server in a normal manner.
2. During POST, press F10 to access the Setup Utility.
3. Press F9 to load the default values.
4. Press F10 to save the changes you made and close the Setup Utility.

Clearing CMOS

You may need to clear the Setup configuration values (CMOS) if the configuration has been corrupted, or if incorrect settings made in the Setup Utility caused error messages to be unreadable. Clearing the CMOS data removes the supervisor password.

Use the JP7 jumper to clear the CMOS data.

• 1 - 2 position: Normal operation (default)
• 2 - 3 position: Clear CMOS data

Diagram showing a computer motherboard with labeled components and an inset view of the internal structure.

To clear CMOS:

1. Perform the pre-installation procedure.
2. Remove the PCI riser board assembly.
3. Locate the clear CMOS jumper on the system board.
4. Remove the jumper block and set it over the 2-3 pins for 20 to 30 seconds.
5. Return the jumper block to its default 1-2 position.
6. Perform the post-installation procedure.
7. During POST, press F10 to access the Setup Utility.
8. Press F9 to load the system default values.
9. Press F10 to save the changes you made and close the Setup Utility.

Power-On-Self-Test

Before you can use a server, all devices must be tested and initialized, and the operating system must be bootstrapped to the memory. This is referred to as Power-On-Self-Test or POST. POST is a series of diagnostic tests that checks firmware and hardware components to ensure that the server is properly functioning. This diagnostic function automatically runs each time the server is powered on.

These diagnostics, which reside in the BIOS ROM, isolate server-related logic failures and indicate the board or component that needs to be replaced, as indicated by the error messages. Most server hardware failures will be accurately isolated during POST. The number of tests displayed depends on the configuration of the server.

During POST you can press:

• Esc to skip the HP logo and go to POST boot progress display system summary screen.
  • F10 to access the Setup Utility.
  • F12 to request a network boot (PXE).

POST error messages

Whenever a non-critical error occurs during POST, an error message describing the problem appears onscreen. These text messages are displayed in normal video (white text on black background). It shows the details of the error. The following is an example of a POST error message:

ERROR

0251: System CMOS checksum bad - Default configuration used

In some cases an error message may include recommendations for troubleshooting or require that you press the Enter key to display recommendations. Follow the instructions on the screen.

The next table lists the most common POST error messages with their corresponding troubleshooting recommendation. It is recommended that you correct the error before proceeding, even if the server appears to boot successfully.

If your system displays one of the messages marked below with an asterisk (*), write down the code and message and contact your HP Customer Support provider.
