For more information please contact your local Intel Representative. See “Regulatory and Integration Information” for product safety compliance and EMC regulatory compliance information. This is an FCC Class A device. Integration of it into a Class B chassis does not result in a Class B device. Intended Uses This product was evaluated as Information Technology Equipment (ITE), which may be installed in offices, schools, computer rooms, and similar commercial type locations. The suitability of this product for other product categories and environments (such as: medical, industrial, telecommunications, NEBS, residential, alarm systems, test equipment, etc.), other than an ITE application, may require further evaluation EMC Testing Before computer integration, make sure that the chassis, power supply, and other modules have passed EMC testing using a server board with a microprocessor from the same family (or higher) and operating at the same (or higher) speed as the microprocessor used on this server board. Warnings Heed safety information: Before working with your server product, whether you are using this guide or any other resource as a reference, pay close attention to the safety instructions. You must adhere to the assembly instructions in this guide to ensure and maintain compliance with existing product certifications and approvals. Use only the described, regulated components specified in this guide. Use of other products / components will void the UL listing and other regulatory approvals of the product and will most likely result in noncompliance with product regulations in the region(s) in which the product is sold. v Preface System power on/off: The power button DOES NOT turn off the system AC power. To remove power from system, you must unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet. Make sure the AC power cord is unplugged before you open the chassis, add, or remove any components. Hazardous conditions, devices and cables: Hazardous electrical conditions may be present on power, telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the server and disconnect the power cord, telecommunications systems, networks, and modems attached to the server before opening it. Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage can result. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and ESD protection: ESD can damage disk drives, boards, and other parts. We recommend that you perform all procedures in this chapter only at an ESD workstation. If one is not available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis ground any unpainted metal surface on your server when handling parts. ESD and handling boards: Always handle boards carefully. They can be extremely sensitive to ESD. Hold boards only by their edges. After removing a board from its protective wrapper or from the server, place the board component side up on a grounded, static free surface. Use a conductive foam pad if available but not the board wrapper. Do not slide board over any surface. Installing or removing jumpers: A jumper is a small plastic encased conductor that slips over two jumper pins. Some jumpers have a small tab on top that you can grip with your fingertips or with a pair of fine needle nosed pliers. If your jumpers do not have such a tab, take care when using needle nosed pliers to remove or install a jumper; grip the narrow sides of the jumper with the pliers, never the wide sides. Gripping the wide sides can damage the contacts inside the jumper, causing intermittent problems with the function controlled by that jumper. Take care to grip with, but not squeeze, the pliers or other tool you use to remove a jumper, or you may bend or break the stake pins on the board.

The minimum allowed memory is 256 MB, using a single 256 MB DIMM in DIMM slot 1B. The system operates in single channel when only a single DIMM is installed. The maximum allowed usable memory is 24 GB of DDR 266 and 16 MB of DDR333, using 4 GB DIMMs. DIMMs must meet the following requirements: ƒ Use only 184-pin, DDR-266/333 ECC, registered DDR DIMM modules ƒ Have a DIMM organization x72 ECC i ƒ Support the following sizes: 256 MB, 512 MB, 1 GB, 2 GB, 4GB ® ƒ DDR-333 memory is only supported with BGA package memory on the Intel Server Board SE7520BD2 (product codes SE7520BD2, SE7520BD2SCSO, SE7520BD2V). TSOP SDRAM packages will not be supported on DDR-333 DIMMs on these product codes. ƒ A minimum of one 256MB DIMM is required in DIMM socket 1B. This uses single-channel interleave. However, for dual-channel interleave, providing optimum performance, a minimum of two DIMMs should be installed in DIMM sockets 1A and 1B. Except for the option of installing a single DIMM in socket 1B, DIMMs must be installed in pairs and populated as follows: DIMM1A and DIMM 1B: Populate these two sockets together first DIMM 2A and DIMM 2B: Populate these sockets in addition to DIMM 1A and DIMM 2A if four DIMMs are to be used. DIMM 3A and DIMM 3B: Populate these sockets after DIMM 1A, DIMM 1B, DIMM 2A, and DIMM 2B have been populated. 25 Server Board Features ® Intel Server Boards SE7520BD2SCSID2, SE7520BD2SATAD2, and SE7520BD2VD2 Product codes SE7520BD2SCSID2, SE7520BD2SATAD2, and SE7520BD2VD2 include four banks of DIMMs across two channels. Channel A consists of DIMMs 1A, 2A, 3A, and 4A. Channel B consists of DIMMs 1B, 2B, 3B, and 4B. Bank 1 (DIMMs 1B and 1A) is closest to the edge of the server board.

Memory Mirroring and Memory On-line Sparing ® The Intel E7520 chipset includes hardware that supports memory mirroring and memory on-line sparing. Both memory mirroring and memory on-line sparing provide a way to prevent data loss in case a DIMM fails. With memory mirroring the system maintains two copies of all data in the memory subsystem. If a DIMM fails, the data is not lost because the second copy of the data is available from the mirrored DIMM. The system will not fail due to memory error unless both the primary and the mirrored copy of the data become corrupt at the same time. In a mirrored system, the maximum usable memory is one-half of the installed memory, with a minimum of four DIMMs installed. Since the data is duplicated across DIMMs, it means that up to four DIMMs are actively in use at any one time. If six 2 GB DIMMs are installed, the maximum usable memory is 6 GB (three of the installed DIMMs). The remaining three 2 GB DIMMs are used for mirroring. 26 Server Board Features For memory on-line sparing, one DIMM per channel is used as the memory spare. If a DIMM begins to fail, the content of the failing DIMM is copied to the spare DIMM in that channel. When all of the data is copied to the spare DIMM, the primary DIMM is removed from service and the spare DIMM takes its place. When memory on-line sparing is used, the spare DIMMs must be equal to or larger than the largest in-service DIMM in that channel. For additional information, see the Intel® Server Board SE7520BD2 Technical Product Specification. Power Supply The minimum power supply required depends on the server chassis into which the server board is installed. Your supply must provide a minimum of 1.2 A of 5 V standby current or the board will not boot. ƒ For the Intel Entry Server Chassis SC5295-E DP, a minimum 450W power supply is required. ƒ For the Intel Entry Server Chassis SC5295-E BRP, a minimum 500W power supply is required. ƒ For the Intel Entry Server Chassis SC5300, a minimum 600W power supply is required. ƒ For the Intel Entry Server Chassis SC5275-E, a minimum 600W power supply is required.

You can run BIOS Setup with or without an operating system present. See the Intel® Server Board SE7520BD2 Technical Product Specification for additional details about specific BIOS setup screens. Starting Setup You can enter and start BIOS Setup under several conditions: ƒ When you turn on the server, after POST completes the memory test ƒ When you have moved the CMOS jumper on the server board to the “Clear CMOS” position (enabled) In the two conditions listed above, after rebooting, you will see this prompt: Press to enter SETUP In a third condition, when CMOS/NVRAM has been corrupted, you will see other prompts but not the prompt: Warning: CMOS checksum invalid Warning: CMOS time and date not set In this condition, the BIOS will load default values for CMOS and attempt to boot. If You Cannot Access Setup If you are not able to access BIOS Setup, you might need to clear the CMOS memory. For instructions on clearing the CMOS, see “Clearing the CMOS”. Setup Menus Each BIOS Setup menu page contains a number of features. Except for those features that are provided only to display automatically configured information, each feature is associated with a value field that contains user-selectable parameters. These parameters can be changed if the user has adequate security rights. If a value cannot be changed for any reason, the feature’s value field is inaccessible. Intel® Server Board SE7520BD2 User Guide 37 Server Utilities Table 6 describes the keyboard commands you can use in the BIOS Setup menus. Table 6. Keyboard Commands Press Description Help - Pressing F1 on any menu invokes the general Help window. The left and right arrow keys are used to move between the major menu pages. The keys have no affect if a submenu or pick list is displayed. Select Item up - The up arrow is used to select the previous value in a menu item’s option list, or a value field pick list. Pressing the Enter key activates the selected item. Select Item down - The down arrow is used to select the next value in a menu item’s option list, or a value field pick list. Pressing the Enter key activates the selected item. F5/- Change Value - The minus key or the F5 function key is used to change the value of the current item to the previous value. This key scrolls through the values in the associated pick list without displaying the full list. F6/+ Change Value - The plus key or the F6 function key is used to change the value of the current menu item to the next value. This key scrolls through the values in the associated pick list without displaying the full list. On 106-key Japanese keyboards, the plus key has a different scan code than the plus key on the other keyboard, but it has the same effect. Execute Command - The Enter key is used to activate submenus when the selected feature is a submenu, or to display a pick list if a selected feature has a value field, or to select a sub-field for multi-valued features like time and date. If a pick list is displayed, the Enter key will undo the pick list, and allow another selection in the parent menu. Exit - The ESC key provides a mechanism for backing out of any field. This key will undo the pressing of the Enter key. When the ESC key is pressed while editing any field or selecting features of a menu, the parent menu is re-entered. When the ESC key is pressed in any submenu, the parent menu is re-entered. When the ESC key is pressed in any major menu, the exit confirmation window is displayed and the user is asked whether changes can be discarded. Setup Defaults - Pressing F9 causes the following to appear: Setup Confirmation Load default configuration now? [Yes] [No] If “Yes” is selected and the Enter key is pressed, all Setup fields are set to their default values. If “No” is selected and the Enter key is pressed, or if the ESC key is pressed, the user is returned to where they were before F9 was pressed without affecting any existing field values. Save and Exit - Pressing F10 causes the following message to appear: Setup Confirmation Save Configuration changes and exit now? [Yes] [NO] If “Yes” is selected and the Enter key is pressed, all changes are saved and Setup is exited. If “No” is selected and the Enter key is pressed, or the ESC key is pressed, the user is returned to where they were before F10 was pressed without affecting any existing values. 38 Server Utilities Upgrading the BIOS NOTE ✏ These instructions describe the process of updating the BIOS only. It is recommented that you check the Intel website Download Finder for the System Update Package (SUP). The SUP contains the BIOS, FRU/SDR and HSC firmware all in one easy to install package. The BIOS upgrade utility allows you to upgrade the BIOS in flash memory. The code and data in the upgrade file include the following: ƒ On-board BIOS, ATA-100 RAID BIOS, and PXE option ROMs for the devices that are embedded on the system board ƒ The Setup Utility ƒ The System BIOS Preparing for the Upgrade The steps below explain how to prepare to upgrade the BIOS, including how to: ƒ Record the current BIOS settings ƒ Obtain the upgrade utility ƒ Prepare a bootable diskette for the utilty Recording the Current BIOS Settings 1. Boot the computer and press when you see the message: Press Key if you want to run SETUP 2. Write down the current settings in the BIOS Setup program. NOTE ✏ Do not skip step 2. You will need these settings to configure your computer at the end of the procedure. Obtaining the Upgrade Download the latest BIOS image file to a temporary folder on your hard drive. See Download Finder for a link to the BIOS update software. NOTE ✏ Review the instructions distributed with the upgrade utility before attempting a BIOS upgrade. Review any release notes in the release notes file that accompanies the new version of the BIOS. The release notes may contain 39 Server Utilities critical information regarding jumper settings, specific fixes, or other information to complete the upgrade. Preparing Media and Performing the BIOS Upgrade Floppy Update 1. Extract floppy.zip to a temporary folder off the root of the drive. 2. Insert blank floppy diskette in drive A: CAUTION All data on the floppy diskette will be destroyed! 3. From the root directory run MAKEFLPY.bat to create the two required BIOS update floppies. 4. Boot the system with the first BIOS update floppy. When prompted, insert the second BIOS update floppy to continue the BIOS update. 5. When BIOS flash update is complete, it will display a message that all writing and verification of flash is done. 6. Power cycle the system. 7. Press to enter BIOS Setup, and re-enter the custom values recorded earlier. Press to save the values and exit Setup. 8. In the unlikely event that a BIOS error occurs during the BIOS update process, see “Recovering the BIOS” for instructions on performing a BIOS recovery. Other Bootable Storage Update 1. Copy the afudos.exe, f.bat, fbb.bat, and the .ROM files to a bootable storage such as a USB DISK-ON-KEY. 2. Place the bootable storage such as USB DISK-ON-KEY containing the new BIOS into USB port of the system, and boot to pure DOS mode (non hi-mem or memory management environment). 3. Run fbb.bat (depending if the bootblock needs to be updated). fbb.bat updates both the system ROM and bootblock. NOTE ✏ If running fbb.bat / f.bat, jumper J1B1 (BIOS partition selection) should be set to pins 1-2 to select the correct BIOS partition. 4. When BIOS flash update is complete, it will display a message that all writing and verification of flash is done. Power-cycle the system. 5. As the system restarts, press to enter BIOS Setup, and re-enter the custom values you wrote down in step 3. 6. Press to save the values and exit Setup. 40 Server Utilities NOTE ✏ The CMOS should always be cleared after a BIOS update. You may encounter a CMOS Checksum error or other problem after reboot. If so, try shutting down the system and restarting. CMOS checksum errors require that you enter Setup, check your settings, save your settings, and exit Setup. Crisis Recovery Diskette It is unlikely that anything will damage the BIOS. However, a recovery disk should be created to ensure a quick recovery in case it happens. The following steps explain how to create the crisis recovery diskette. If an incident occurs that corrupts the BIOS, such as the interruption of the BIOS update process, see “Recovering the BIOS” for instructions on performing a BIOS recovery. You can obtain the Recovery.zip file which is packaged together with the BIOS Update Package from the Intel Support Web site at Download Finder. There are two options in creating a recovery disk: ƒ Creating a Recovery Disk Using Floppy Disks 1. Prepare two blank formatted floppy disks. 2. Copy the AMIBOOT.000 to Disk 1. 3.

Under the Main Menu options select then enter 3. Select either English, French, German, Spanish or Italian 41 Server Utilities Recovering the BIOS In the rare event that the BIOS becomes damaged, a recovery process needs to be followed to return the system to service. Two methods are available to recover the BIOS: automatically with the crisis recovery diskette, and manually by moving a jumper on the system board. These methods are described below. NOTE ✏ BIOS recovery is the mode of last resort, used only when the main system BIOS will not come up. Recovering the BIOS with the Crisis Recovery Diskette Automatically Recovering the BIOS If a ROM checksum error occurs during POST, the system will automatically enter BIOS recovery mode. This is indicated by system beeping with one long beep followed by two short beeps. When you hear this beep pattern, use the following steps to initiate an automatic recovery: 1. Insert the Crisis Recovery Diskette into the A: diskette drive. 2. A blue screen will be displayed and the recovery process will automatically run. The system will continue to beep throughout the recovery process. 3. A series of three beeps and no disk access signals the need to insert disk two. 4. When the beeping stops and disk access stops on disk two the recovery process is complete. 5. Remove disk two. 6. Power down and unplug the system from the AC power source. 7. Plug the system into the AC power source and power it up to confirm that the recovery was successful. 42 Server Utilities Manually Recovering the BIOS A BIOS recovery can be manually initiated. This option would be used only when the BIOS is corrupt, but the ROM checksum error does not occur during POST. To manually initiate a BIOS recovery, use the following steps: 1. Power down and uplug the system from the AC power source. 2. Install the recovery jumper at J4H1. See the figure below. RECOVERY BOOT J4H1 FRB HALT 3 J4H3 J4H2 PASSWORD CLEAR TP00902 Figure 12. Recovery Boot Jumper 3. Insert the Crisis Recovery Diskette into the A: diskette drive. 4. .Plug the system into the AC power source and power it on. 5. A blue screen will be displayed and the recovery process will automatically run. The system will continue to beep throughout the recovery process. 6. A series of three beeps and no disk access signals the need to insert disk two. 7. When the beeping stops and disk access stops on disk two the recovery process is complete. 8. Remove disk two. 9. Power down and unplug the system from the AC power source. 10. Remove the BIOS recovery jumper at J4H1. 11. Plug the system into the AC power source and power it up to confirm that the recovery was successful. 43 Server Utilities Clearing the Password If the user or administrator password(s) is lost or forgotten, install a jumper on jumper block J4H3 to remove both passwords. The Password Clear jumper must be removed before a new password(s) can be set. 1. Power down the system and disconnect the AC power. 2. Open the server chassis. 3. Install the jumper on jumper block J4H3, as shown in the following diagram. RECOVERY BOOT J4H1 FRB HALT 3 J4H3 J4H2 PASSWORD CLEAR TP00902 Figure 13. Password Clear Jumper 4.

Close the server chassis, reconnect the AC power and power up the system. 45 4 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 hot-swap controller (HSC). See “Additional Information and Software” for a link to the software updates. 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 SCSI drivers. Intel provides a package called the “Platform Confidence Test” that may help with your diagnostics. See “Additional Information and Software” for a link to this software. If you are unable to resolve your server problems on your own, see “Getting Help” for assistance. Resetting the System Before going through in-depth troubleshooting, first attempt to perform a reset of your system using one of the following methods. To do this: Press: Soft boot reset to clear the system memory and reload the operating system. Clear system memory, restart POST, and reload the operating system. Reset button Cold boot reset. Turn the system power off and then on. This clears system memory, Power off/on restarts POST, reloads the operating system, and halts power to all peripherals. 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. ‰ Are all cables correctly connected and secured? ‰ Are the processors fully seated in their sockets on the server board? ‰ Are all standoffs in the proper location and not touching any components, causing a potential short? ‰ Are all add-in PCI boards fully seated in their slots on the server board? ‰ Are all jumper settings on the server board correct? ‰ Are all jumpers and switch settings on add-in boards and peripheral devices correct? To check these settings, see the manufacturer’s documentation that comes with them. If applicable, ensure that there are no conflicts—for example, two add-in boards sharing the same interrupt.

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. Disconnect each device from the system, except for the keyboard and the video monitor. 2. Make sure the system power cord is plugged into a properly grounded AC outlet. 3. Make sure your video display monitor and keyboard are correctly connected to the system. Turn on the video monitor. Set its brightness and contrast controls to at least two thirds of their maximum ranges (see the documentation supplied with your video display monitor). 4. If the operating system normally loads from the hard disk drive, make sure there is no diskette in drive A and no CD-ROM disk in the CD-ROM drive. 5. If the power LED does light, attempt to boot from a floppy diskette or from a CD-ROM disk. 6. Turn on the system. If the power LED does not light, see “Power Light Does Not Light”. 47 Troubleshooting Verifying Proper Operation of Key System Lights As POST determines the system configuration, it tests for the presence of each mass storage device installed in the system. As each device is checked, its activity light should turn on briefly. Check for the following: ‰ Does the diskette drive activity light turn on briefly? If not, see “Diskette Drive Activity Light Does Not Light”. ‰ If system LEDs are illuminated, see “LED Information” for a description of the light and steps to take to correct the problem. Confirming Loading of the Operating System Once the system boots up, the operating system prompt appears on the screen. The prompt varies according to the operating system. If the operating system prompt does not appear, see “No Characters Appear on Screen”. Specific Problems and Corrective Actions This section provides possible solutions for these specific problems: ƒ Power light does not light. ƒ No characters appear on screen. ƒ Characters on the screen appear distorted or incorrect. ƒ System cooling fans do not rotate. ƒ Diskette drive activity light does not light. ƒ Hard disk drive activity light does not light. ƒ CD-ROM drive activity light does not light. ƒ There are problems with application software. ƒ The bootable CD-ROM is not detected. Try the following solutions in the order given. If you cannot correct the problem, contact your service representative or authorized dealer for help. Power Light Does Not Light Check the following: ‰ Did you press the power-on button? ‰ Is the system operating normally? If so, the power LED might be defective or the cable from the front panel to the server board might be loose. ‰ Have you securely plugged the server AC power cord into the power supply? ‰ Is the power supply correctly set to 110V or 235V, depending on your power output? ‰ Will other items plugged into the same power outlet function correctly? ‰ Some ATX power supplies have a power switch on the back of the power supply, next to the fan. If your system has one, is it turned on? 48 Troubleshooting ‰ Remove all add-in cards and see if the system boots. If successful, add the cards back in one at a time with a reboot between each addition. ‰ Make sure the memory DIMMs comply with the system requirements. ‰ Make sure the memory DIMMs have been populated according to the system requirements. ‰ Remove the memory DIMMs and re-seat them. ‰ Make sure the processor(s) comply with the system requirements. ‰ 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. No Characters Appear on Screen Check the following: ‰ Is the keyboard functioning? Test it by turning the “Num Lock” function on and off to make sure the Num Lock light is functioning. ‰ Is the video monitor plugged in and turned on? If you are using a switch box, is it switched to the correct system? ‰ Are the brightness and contrast controls on the video monitor properly adjusted? ‰ Is the video monitor signal cable properly installed? ‰ Does this video monitor work correctly if plugged into a different system? ‰ Is the on-board video controller enabled in the BIOS? ‰ Remove all add-in cards and see if the video returns. If successful, add the cards back in one at a time with a reboot between each addition. ‰ Make sure the memory DIMMs comply with the system requirements. ‰ Make sure the memory DIMMs have been populated according to the system requirements. ‰ Carefully remove the memory DIMMs and re-seat them. ‰ Make sure the processor(s) comply with the system requirements. ‰ Make sure the processor(s) have been populated according to the system requirements. ‰ Carefully remove the processor(s) and re-seat them. If you are using an add-in video controller board, do the following: 1. Verify that the video works using the on-board video controller. 2. Verify that the video controller board is fully seated in the server board connector. 3. Reboot the system for changes to take effect. 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. 49 Troubleshooting Characters Are Distorted or Incorrect Check the following: ‰ Are the brightness and contrast controls properly adjusted on the video monitor? See the manufacturer’s documentation. ‰ Are the video monitor’s signal and power cables properly installed? ‰ Does this video monitor work correctly if plugged into a different system? System Cooling Fans Do Not Rotate Properly If the system cooling fans are not operating properly, it is an indication of possible system component failure. Check the following: ‰ Is the power-on light lit? ‰ If your system has LED lights for the fans, is one or more of these LEDs lit? ‰ Are any other front panel LEDs lit? ‰ Have any of the fan motors stopped? Use the server management subsystem to check the fan status. ‰ Have your fans speeded up in response to an overheating situation? ‰ Have your fans speeded up in response to a fan that has failed? ‰ Are the fan power connectors properly connected to the server board? ‰ Is the cable from the front panel board connected to both the front panel board and the server board? ‰ Are the power supply cables properly connected to the server board? ‰ Are there any shorted wires caused by pinched-cables or have power connector plugs been forced into power connector sockets the wrong way? Diskette Drive Activity Light Does Not Light Check the following: ‰ Are the diskette drive’s power and signal cables properly installed? ‰ Are all relevant switches and jumpers on the diskette drive set correctly? ‰ Is the diskette drive properly configured? ‰ Is the diskette drive activity light always on? If so, the signal cable may be plugged in incorrectly. If you are using the on-board diskette controller, use BIOS Setup to make sure that “On-board Floppy” is set to “Enabled.” If you are using an add-in diskette controller, make sure that “On- board Floppy” is set to “Disabled.” 50 Troubleshooting CD-ROM Drive or DVD-ROM Drive Activity Light Does Not Light Check the following: ‰ Are the CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive’s power and signal cables properly installed? ‰ Are all relevant switches and jumpers on the drive set correctly? ‰ Is the drive properly configured? Cannot Connect to a Server ‰ Make sure the network cable is securely attached to the correct connector at the system back panel. ‰ Try a different network cable. ‰ Make sure you are using correct and current network drivers. See “Additional Information and Software” for a link to the current drivers. ‰ Make sure the driver is loaded and the protocols are bound. ‰ Make sure the hub port is configured for the same duplex mode as the network controller. ‰ Make sure the correct networking software is installed. ‰ If you are directly connecting two servers (without a hub), you will need a crossover cable. ‰ Check the network controller LEDs next to the NIC connectors. 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. The controller stopped working when an add-in adapter was installed. ‰ Make sure the cable is connected to the port from the on-board network controller. ‰ Make sure your BIOS is current. See “Additional Information and Software” for a link to the current version. ‰ Make sure the other adapter supports shared interrupts. Make sure your operating system supports shared interrupts. ‰ Try reseating the add-in adapter. The add-in adapter stopped working without apparent cause ‰ Try reseating the adapter first; then try a different slot if necessary. ‰ The network driver files may be corrupt or deleted. Delete and then reinstall the drivers. ‰ Run diagnostics. 51 Troubleshooting System Boots when Installing PCI Card System Server Management features require full-time “standby” power. This means some parts of the system have power going to them whenever the power cord is plugged in, even if you have turned the system power off with the power button on the front panel. If you install a PCI card with the AC power cord plugged in, a signal may be sent to reboot the system. Before installing a PCI card, you should always: ‰ Turn off the server power by using the power button on the front of the system. ‰ Unplug the AC power cord(s) from the server. 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. ‰ Use only an authorized copy. Unauthorized copies often do not work. ‰ If you are running the software from a diskette, CD-ROM or DVD-ROM, try a different diskette. ‰ Make sure the correct device drivers are installed. If the problems persist, contact the software vendor’s customer service representative. Problems with Application Software that Ran Correctly Earlier Problems that occur after the system hardware and software have been running correctly sometimes indicate equipment failure. However, they can also be caused by file corruption or changes to the software configuration. Check the following: ‰ If you are running the software from a diskette, CD-ROM or DVD-ROM, try a different diskette. ‰ Uninstall and reinstall the software. Make sure all necessary files are installed. ‰ If the problems are intermittent, there may be a loose cable, dirt in the keyboard (if keyboard input is incorrect), a marginal power supply, or other random component failures. ‰ If you suspect that a transient voltage spike, power outage, or brownout might have occurred, reload the software and try running it again. Symptoms of voltage spikes include a flickering video display, unexpected system reboots, and the system not responding to user commands. NOTE ✏ Random errors in data files: If you are getting random errors in your data files, they may be getting corrupted by voltage spikes on your power line. If 52 Troubleshooting you are experiencing any of the above symptoms that might indicate voltage spikes on the power line, you may want to install a surge suppressor between the power outlet and the system power cord.

Frequently asked questions

What makes Elite.Parts unique?

chervon down
At GID Industrial (Elite.Parts' parent company), we specialize in procuring industrial parts. We know where to find the rare and obsolete equipment that our customers need in order to get back to business. There are other companies who claim to do what we do, but we're confident that our commitment to quality and value is unparalleled in our field.

What kind of warranty will the SE7520BD2V have?

chervon down
Warranties differ by part and by which suppliers we use to procure it for you. Sometimes, a part will be sold as-is and without a warranty. Our specialty, single board computers, tend to receive a one-year warranty.

Which carriers does Elite.Parts work with?

chervon down
Elite.Parts can ship via FedEx, UPS, DHL, and USPS. We have accounts with each of them and generally ship using one of those, but we can also ship using your account if you would prefer. However, we can use other carriers if it will be more convenient for you.

Will Elite.Parts sell to me even though I live outside the USA?

chervon down
Absolutely! We are happy to serve customers regardless of location. We work with international clients all the time, and we are familiar with shipping to destinations all across the globe.

I have a preferred payment method. Will Elite.Parts accept it?

All major credit cards are accepted: Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express. We will also accept payment made with wire transfer or PayPal. Checks will only be accepted from customers in the USA. Terms may available for larger orders, upon approval.

Our company provides services to aid in the manufacture of technological products, such as semiconductors and flat panel displays, and often searching for distributors of obsolete product we require can waste time and money. Finding GID Industrial proved to be a great asset to our company, with cost effective solutions and superior knowledge on all of their materials, it’d be hard to find a better provider of obsolete or hard to find products.

Over the years, the equipment used in our company becomes discontinued, but they’re still of great use to us and our customers. Once these products are no longer available through the manufacturer, finding a reliable, quick supplier is a necessity, and luckily for us, GID Industrial has provided the most trustworthy, quality solutions to our obsolete component needs.

This company has been a terrific help to us (I work for Trican Well Service) in sourcing the Micron Ram Memory we needed for our Siemens computers. Great service! And great pricing! I know when the product is shipping and when it will arrive, all the way through the ordering process.

When I can't find an obsolete part, I first call GID and they'll come up with my parts every time. Great customer service and follow up as well. Scott emails me from time to time to touch base and see if we're having trouble finding something.....which is often with our 25 yr old equipment.
