The replaceable components in your Oracle Database Appliance Version 1 are designated as either field-replaceable units (FRUs) or customer-replaceable units (CRUs). Some can be replaced with the power on, some require the powering off of a server node, and some require the powering off of the entire system chassis.
A part designated as a FRU must be replaced by Oracle-qualified service technician.
A part designated as a CRU can be replaced by a person who is not an Oracle-qualified service technician.
The following table lists replaceable components, their service designation (CRU or FRU), and the system power policy related to servicing the component.

Note:
Information in this appendix does NOT apply to Oracle Database Appliance X7 series, Oracle Database Appliance X6 series, or Oracle Database Appliance X3-2/X4-2/X5-2. Refer to the preceding chapters in this document for information on servicing those systems.
You can shut down either Oracle Database Appliance Version 1 server node using the front panel power button, or Oracle ILOM. Each method provides a graceful shutdown and an emergency shutdown option.
Caution:
Data loss. To avoid data loss and file system corruption, always use a graceful shutdown unless it is an emergency.
Note:
To use Oracle ILOM to shut down a server node, ensure that you have performed its initial configuration as described in "Connecting and Configuring Oracle ILOM" in the Oracle Database Appliance Getting Started Guide.
After you have shut down the server nodes, you can power off the system.
See the following topics in this section to shut down a server node and power off the system chassis:
How to shut down an Oracle Database Appliance Version 1 server node.
You must shut down the server node before you remove it from the system chassis.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive devices, such as the motherboards, PCIe cards, storage drives, and memory cards, require special handling.
Caution:
Equipment damage. Follow antistatic precautions and do not touch the components along their connector edges.
When handling components such as storage drive assemblies, circuit boards, or PCIe cards:
Attach an antistatic strap to your wrist and then to a metal area on the chassis. Following this practice equalizes the electrical potential between you and the system.
Note:
An antistatic wrist strap is not included in the system Accessory Kit. However, antistatic wrist straps are included with some options and components.
Place ESD-sensitive components on an antistatic mat. The following items can be used as an antistatic mat:

Each Oracle Database Appliance Version 1 server node contains two fan modules. Each fan module contains a single, dual-motor, 80 mm, counter-rotating fan assembly that contains two fans. Each fan module is hot-pluggable. For specific information about fan status LEDs, see Server Node Fan Status Indicators.
When a server node is removed from the system, the fans provide sufficient cooling for all 24 front disks and the server node. A door automatically closes off the vacant server node slot to ensure proper cooling. When the server node is replaced, its two fans also cool the 24 front disks and provide cooling to the second server node.
Caution:
Equipment damage. If a fan module fails, replace it as soon as possible.

Note:
Information in this appendix does NOT apply to Oracle Database Appliance X7 series, Oracle Database Appliance X6 series, or Oracle Database Appliance X3-2/X4-2/X5-2. Refer to the preceding chapters in this document for information on servicing those systems.
Each processor in Oracle Database Appliance Version 1 has six DIMM slots numbered D0 through D5. D0 is the closest to the processor and D5 is the farthest.
Each slot should contain a 1333 MHz or 1600 MHz DDR3, 8GB dual rank DIMM. No other configurations are supported.
The server node supports a maximum memory speed of 1333 MHz, even if it is configured with 1600 MHz DIMMs.
If the system contains a mixture of 1333 MHz and 1600 MHz DIMMs, then P0 and P1 should be configured the same, so that both sides are symmetrical. For example, if you install only two 1600 MHz DIMMs, they should go into P0, D0 and P1, D0.
The following figure shows the physical layout of the DIMMs and CPUs. When viewing the server node from the front, CPU0 (P0) is on the right.
Each processor socket supports three independent memory channels labeled channel A, B, and C, where channel A is closest to the processor socket. Each channel supports two DIMM slots, is controlled by an independent memory controller, and operates independent of the other channels.

The Oracle Database Appliance Version 1 server node's processor provides parity protection on its internal cache memories, and error-correcting code (ECC) protection of the data. The server node detects and posts the following errors to the Oracle ILOM event log:
Correctable and uncorrectable memory ECC errors
Uncorrectable CPU internal errors
Advanced ECC corrects up to 4 bits in error on nibble boundaries, as long as they are all in the same DRAM. If a DRAM fails, the DIMM continues to function.
To clear a fault once the faulty DIMM has been replaced, type the following in the Oracle ILOM CLI:
->
set clear_fault_action=true

Learn about POST memory tests for an Oracle Database Appliance Version 1.
Note:
Information in this appendix does NOT apply to Oracle Database Appliance X7 series, Oracle Database Appliance X6 series, or Oracle Database Appliance X3-2/X4-2/X5-2. Refer to the preceding chapters in this document for information on servicing those systems.
The Oracle Database Appliance Version 1 BIOS POST memory testing is performed as follows:
The first megabyte of DRAM is tested by the BIOS before the BIOS code is copied from ROM to DRAM.
After existing out of DRAM, the BIOS performs a simple memory test (where a write/read of every location with the pattern 55aa55aa is performed).
Note:
The simple memory test is performed only if Quick Boot is not enabled from the Boot Settings Configuration screen. Enabling Quick Boot causes the BIOS to skip the memory test.
The BIOS polls the memory controllers for both correctable and non-correctable memory errors and logs those errors into the SP.

Learn about clearing CMOS for an Oracle Database Appliance Version 1 server node.
Note:
Information in this appendix does NOT apply to Oracle Database Appliance X7 series, Oracle Database Appliance X6 series, or Oracle Database Appliance X3-2/X4-2/X5-2. Refer to the preceding chapters in this document for information on servicing those systems.
You can clear the CMOS NVRAM by pressing the CLR CMOS button on the Oracle Database Appliance Version 1 server node motherboard. This action sets the BIOS to defaults values, which clears the BIOS user and supervisor passwords.
You can also set or reset the BIOS password from the BIOS Setup Utility. See BIOS Security Menu Screen for more information.
Caution:
Data loss. You should not perform this procedure unless instructed to do so by Oracle Service.

Learn about Ethernet port naming and boot order for an Oracle Database Appliance Version 1.
Note:
Information in this appendix does NOT apply to Oracle Database Appliance X7 series, Oracle Database Appliance X6 series, or Oracle Database Appliance X3-2/X4-2/X5-2. Refer to the preceding chapters in this document for information on servicing those systems.
Each Oracle Database Appliance Version 1 server node supports two 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet ports on the rear of the chassis. For port locations, see the Oracle Database Appliance Owner's Guide.
The device naming for the Ethernet interfaces is reported differently by different interfaces and operating systems. See the following table for the physical (BIOS) and logical (operating system) naming conventions used for each interface.
Interface | NET0 | NET1 |
---|---|---|
BIOS |
NET0 |
NET1 |
Oracle Linux |
eth0 |
eth1 |
The order in which the BIOS detects the Ethernet ports during boot time, and the corresponding drivers that control those ports, are listed below:
NET 0 (INTEL NIC 0)
NET 1 (INTEL NIC 1)
