Servicing Motherboard Components |
This chapter describes how to replace the motherboard and its components in the Sun Fire X4150 Server.
| Note - Before performing any of the procedures in this chapter, perform the procedures described in Chapter 2, Preparing to Service the System. |
The following topics are covered in this chapter:
| Note - Never attempt to run the server with the covers removed. Hazardous voltage present. |
|
Caution - Equipment damage possible. The covers must be in place for proper air flow. |
This section describes how to diagnose and replace faulty FB-DIMMs (fully buffered DIMMs). The following topics are covered:
| Note - This is a customer-replaceable unit. |
|
Caution - This procedure requires that you handle components that are sensitive to static discharge. This sensitivity can cause the component to fail. To avoid damage, ensure that you follow antistatic practices as described in Section 2.7, Performing Electrostatic Discharge and Antistatic Prevention Measures. |
|
The Sun Fire X4150 Server Service Required LED is lit if the system detects a FB-DIMM fault.
To use the rear panel Locator button to identify faulty FB-DIMMs:
1. Unplug all power cords from the rear panel.
2. Press the remind button (FIGURE 4-1).
3. Note the location of faulty FB-DIMMs.
Faulty FB-DIMMs are identified with a corresponding amber LED on the motherboard.
4. Ensure that all FB-DIMMs are seated correctly in their slots. If re-seating the FB-DIMM does not fix the problem, remove and replace the faulty FB-DIMM.
Use the FB-DIMM guidelines, FIGURE 4-2, FIGURE 4-3, and TABLE 4-1 to help you plan the memory configuration of your server.
Any even number of DIMM's is allowed. The DIMMs must be populated in matched pairs. The pairs must be identical in organization, size and speed. See TABLE 4-1 for detailed configuration information.
| Note - FB-DIMM names in ILOM messages are displayed with the full name, such as /SYS/Memory/DIMM_D0. |
FIGURE 4-3 Memory Organization
|
|
|
Caution - Ensure that all power is removed from the server before removing or installing FB-DIMMs. You must disconnect the power cables before performing this procedure. |
1. Review Section 4.1.1, FB-DIMM Guidelines for memory configuration information.
2. Prepare the server for service.
See Section 2.4, Powering Off the Server.
b. Disconnect the power cord (or cords) from the power supply (or supplies).
See Section 2.4, Powering Off the Server.
c. Extend the server into the maintenance position.
See Section 2.5, Extending the Server to the Maintenance Position.
d. Attach an antistatic wrist strap.
See Section 2.7, Performing Electrostatic Discharge and Antistatic Prevention Measures.
See Section 2.8, Removing the Top Cover.
3. If you are replacing a faulty FB-DIMM, press the “Remind” button to activate the FB-DIMM status LEDs after power is removed.
All faulty FB-DIMMs are indicated with an amber LED on the motherboard, so that you can install the replacement FB-DIMM in the same location.
| Tip - Make a note of the faulty FB-DIMM location. |
4. Push down on the ejector tabs on each side of the FB-DIMM until the FB-DIMM is released (FIGURE 4-4).
5. Grasp the top corners of the faulty FB-DIMM and remove it from the server.
6. Place the FB-DIMM on an antistatic mat.
7. Repeat Step 4 through Step 6 to remove any additional FB-DIMMs.
|
| Tip - See Section 4.1.1, FB-DIMM Guidelines for information about configuring the FB-DIMMs. |
1. Unpackage the replacement FB-DIMMs and place them on an antistatic mat.
2. Ensure that the ejector tabs are in the open position.
3. Line up the replacement FB-DIMM with the connector (FIGURE 4-5).
Align the FB-DIMM notch with the key in the connector. This ensures that the FB-DIMM is oriented correctly.
4. Push the FB-DIMM into the connector until the ejector tabs lock the FB-DIMM in place.
If the FB-DIMM does not easily seat into the connector, verify that the orientation of the FB-DIMM is as shown in FIGURE 4-5. If the orientation is reversed, damage to the FB-DIMM might occur.
5. Repeat Step 2 through Step 4 until all replacement FB-DIMMs are installed.
See Section 6.1, Installing the Top Cover.
7. Slide the server into the rack.
See Section 6.3, Returning the Server to the Normal Rack Position.
8. Reconnect the power cord (or cords) to the power supply (or supplies).
Verify that the AC Present LED is lit.
See Section 6.4, Powering On the Server.
