Power supply units (PSUs)
The power supply configuration depends on the base unit:
–
–
–
a standard PSU (800 W)
one hot-plug PSU (450 W or 800 W)
two hot-plug PSUs for redundancy
The PSUs adjust automatically to any mains voltage in the range of 100 V -
240 V.
A mix of 450 W and 800 W hot-plug PSUs is not allowed. If one of two hot-plug
PSU is defective, the other guarantees unimpaired operation. The defective
power supply module can be replaced during operation (see the "PRIMERGY
TX150 S8 / TX200 S7 Server Upgrade and Maintenance Manual").
I
Redundancy is only guaranteed, if the total maximum power of all low
power versions gets not exceeded. Power sharing under mix mode
operation is not guaranteed.
TX200 S7
Operating Manual

Functional overview
High level of availability and data security
When memory data is accessed, 1-bit errors are identified in the main memory
and automatically corrected with the error correcting code (ECC) method. The
patented memory scrubbing function regularly starts up the EDC mechanism,
ensuring continuous data integrity.
The memory modules used support SDDC technology (Chipkill™), which
further increases the effectiveness of memory error monitoring and correction.
Support is likewise provided for hot-spare memory technology, in which a
memory bank is used like a replacement bank. If a memory module fails, the
bank with the defective memory is automatically deactivated and the
replacement bank is activated (provided it has been configured for appropriately
in the BIOS). The deactivated memory bank is no longer used and the faulty
memory module can be replaced at the next opportunity. In order to be able to
use the hot-spare memory function, all occupied memory banks should be
equipped with identical memory modules.
Memory modules can be protected against failure by mirroring (Memory
Mirroring). Memory Mirroring is roughly comparable to RAID level 1 for hard
disk arrays. The basic configuration requires two identical memory modules in
two different banks.
ASR&R (Automatic Server Reconfiguration and Restart) restarts the system in
the event of an error and automatically "hides" the defective system
components.
The PDA (Prefailure Detection and Analysis) technology from Fujitsu analyzes
and monitors all components that are critical for system reliability.
The SAS/SATA RAID controller supports different RAID levels and increase the
availability and data security of the system.

Connecting the server to the mains
In its basic configuration level the server has a hot-plug power supply unit.
A second hot-plug power supply unit can be added to ensure a redundant power
supply. If one power supply unit is defective, the other then guarantees
unimpaired operation. Each hot-plug power supply unit can be replaced during
operation (see the "PRIMERGY TX150 S8 / TX200 S7 Server Upgrade and
Maintenance Manual").
V
CAUTION!
The server is automatically set to a mains voltage in the range 100 V -
240 V. You may only operate the server if its rated voltage range
corresponds to the local mains voltage.
Ê
Ê
Connect the power cord to the server power supply unit.
Connect the power cord to a grounded mains outlet in the in-house power
supply network or a power outlet of the socket strip in the rack (see Technical
Manual for rack).
I
A phase redundancy in the power supply of the server can be set up if
two hot-plug power supply units are installed.
In this case, each of the power supply units is either connected to two
different phases or to two separate circuits of the internal power supply
network.

Troubleshooting and tips
8.12 Temperature warning
A temperature warning is output to the hardware event log and OS event log, or
ServerView issues a notification of a temperature warning such as by a popup
message
The above log is output or the above notification is issued by ServerView when
the ambient temperature is within 30 to 35°C, which is near the upper limit of the
temperature boundaries (10 to 35°C). This is to notify the administrator before
the ambient temperature actually exceeds the range of the temperature
boundaries.
Ê
Although continued use within the temperature boundaries poses no
problems within itself, reconsider the surrounding environment conditions if
this log is output or if ServerView issues this notification.
8.13 No effect of keyboard or mouse
Typing the keyboard does not display any characters, or the mouse cursor does
not move.
Ê
Check to see whether the keyboard and mouse are connected properly. If
they are not connected or you replaced them yourself, then connect the
cables to the server.

Check to see whether the CD/DVD/BD is inserted properly. If it is not
inserted, correctly insert the disk so that the label is facing up.
Check to see whether the CD/DVD/BD is not dirty. If it is dirty, wipe it with a
soft, dry cloth.
Check to see whether the CD/DVD/BD is not scratched or bent. If scratched
or damaged, replace the CD/DVD/BD.
