1 Introduction  
The PRIMERGY B120 server is an Intel-based server for small and medium-sized networks and can  
be used as a tower (floorstand) or rack servers. Conversion to the respective other version is  
possible with an optional conversion kit.  
The PRIMERGY B120 Server offers a high level of failure protection and availability through highly  
developed hardware and software components. Hardware components include hot-replace carriers,  
the ServerView server management , PDA (Prefailure Detection and Analyzing) and ASR&R  
(Automatic Server Reconfiguration and Restart).  
Security functions in the BIOS Setup and on the system board protect the data on the server against  
manipulation. As a floorstand server, the lockable drive cover, and as rack server the lockable rack  
offers additional security.  
This Operating Manual tells you how to put your server into operation, how to operate it in daily use  
and how to expand or upgrade your server.  
Work steps which are identical for the tower and rack version are only described for the  
tower version.

1.1 Features  
System board  
For a description of the features of the system board intergrated in your PRIMERGY B120 server,  
please see the Technical Manual of the system board for the hardware and the description of the  
BIOS-Setup for the firmware.  
Hard disk subsystem  
The hard disk subsystem is available in an SCSI hot-replace version, consisting of the SCSI  
backplane and up to four SCSI hard disk slide-in modules with an SCA (Single Connector  
Attachment) interface. With a disk array controller the PRIMERGY B120 server can be expanded to  
a high-availability system.  
The SCSI hard disk subsystem features Ultra160 SCSI. Standard controllers and disk array  
controller can be used as SCSI controllers. With a disk array controller and a corresponding RAID  
configuration (Redundant Arrays of Independent Disks), a defective hard disk drive can be replaced  
during operation (hot-replace).

Introduction  
Features  
Power supply  
The PRIMERGY B120 server is equipped with a permanently installed power supply.  
High level of availability and failure protection  
When memory data are accessed, 1-bit errors in the main memory are recognized and automatically  
corrected with the ECC (Error Correcting Code) method.  
ASR&R (Automatic Server Reconfiguration and Restart) restarts the system in the case of an error  
and automatically "hides" the defective system components.  
PDA (Prefailure Detection and Analyzing) technology from Fujitsu Siemens Computers analyzes and  
monitors all components important for system reliability.  
Server management is realized with the software ServerView and PDA technology. It reports the  
threat of a system error or overloading so that preventative measures can be taken.  
ServerView enables the management of all PRIMERGY servers in a network via a central console. In  
the process, ServerView supports the following functions depending on the system board of the  
server:  
Remote power-on (Wakeup On LAN)  
Intrusion Detection  
Temperature monitoring of the CPU and the surrounding area.  
Power monitoring  
End-of-Life monitoring of the fans with timely indication before failure  
Watchdog timer for operating system and applications with Automatic Server Reconfiguration  
and Restart (ASR&R)  
Further information on ServerView is provided in the associated documentation.  
ServerStart  
You can configure the PRIMERGY server quickly and purposefully with the ServerStart software  
provided. User-guided menus are available for installing the server operating systems.  
Service and Support  
PRIMERGY devices are service-friendly and modular, thus enabling quick and simple maintenance.  
The flash EPROM program supplied with the Fujitsu Siemens utilities supports fast BIOS update.  
With the optional Remote Test and Diagnosis System RemoteView (chipDISK), long-distance  
maintenance and service (remote) can also be performed on the servers of the PRIMERGY series.

3.5.3 Connecting the rack server to the line voltage  
The server is equipped with a permanently installed standard power supply. Two standard designs  
are available for the power supply. The only difference between them is that the connection panel is  
rotated 180°. Since the connection panels are otherwise identical, the diagrams below show only  
one of the standard power supplies.  
The power supply of the server can be set to the following line voltage range:  
100 V to 125 V or 200 V to 240 V.  
Before connecting the server to the line voltage, you must always check that the line  
voltage range set on the server corresponds to the local line voltage. The marker arrow on  
the plug-in unit points to the voltage range set.

for the tower version.  
Memory and processor upgrading as well as replacement of the lithium battery are described in the  
Technical Manual for the system board.  
You will find an overview and a brief description of the installed system boards on the side  
cover of the server. A detailed description of the system board is provided in the

i
Please take note of the safety information in the chapter "Important notes".  
!
8.1 The SCSI hard disk subsystem  
The hard disk subsystem is available in an SCSI hot-replace version, consisting of the SCSI  
backplane and up to four SCSI hard disk slide-in modules with an SCA (Single Connector  
Attachment) interface. With a disk array controller the PRIMERGY B120 server can be expanded to  
a high-availability system.  
The SCSI hard disk subsystem features Ultra160 SCSI. Standard controllers and disk array  
controller can be used as SCSI controllers. With a disk array controller and a corresponding RAID  
configuration (Redundant Arrays of Independent Disks), a defective hard disk drive can be replaced  
during operation (hot-replace).  
When an SCSI hard disk drive is operated in a hot-replace-capable SCSI subsystem on a disk array  
controller and is part of a disk array which operates in RAID Level 1 or 5, then it can be replaced in  
the case of a defect during operation (hot-replace). To swap a hard disk, you need an SCSI hard  
disk drive with the same or higher capacity. You will identify a defective SCSI hard disk drive by a  
glowing orange indicator on the hard disk carrier (see "Operation controls"). The reconstruction of  
the data (rebuild) on the new hard disk takes place automatically after the swap provided that the  
disk array controller has been properly configured. Observe the instructions in the manual of the  
disk array controller.  
Only if the orange indicator on the hard disk carrier remains bright may the hard disk be  
replaced while the system is in operation.  
!
So that the storage capacity of the hard disk can be recognized at a glance when the hard disk is  
replaced, several prefabricated stickers with the storage capacities are provided with the server.  
Each hard disk (slide-in module) should bear a sticker indicating its capacity on the front. Should no  
suitable sticker be available, blank stickers for labeling are also provided. The stickers are color  
coded for easier identification.  
The SCSI IDs of the hard disk slide-in modules are permanently set and are assigned from the  
bottom upward in the order 0, 1, 2 (with three slide-in modules) or 0, 1, 2, 3 (with four slide-in  
modules).

System components and expansions  
The SCSI hard disk subsystem  
The following applies if SCSI hard disk drives are operated on a disk array controller:  
RAID level 0 and 7  
Rebuild is not possible. If a hard disk fails, its data is lost.  
RAID level 1 and 5 without standby hard disk  
Rebuild on the new disk is carried out automatically when the old disk is swapped.  
RAID level 1 and 5 with standby hard disk  
A standby hard disk is automatically enabled as a replacement for the defective hard disk and  
the data of the defective disk is rebuilt on the standby disk.  
Ê
Read the documentation for the new hard disk drive.  
8.1.1 SCSI hard disk drives  
The SCSI hard disks which can be ordered for the server are supplied already mounted in the hard  
disk carriers. The slide-in modules are equipped with a status and an error indicator. Unequipped  
installation bays are covered with a blank insert.  
A hard disk in the hard disk carrier may only be replaced by a service technician.

Function of the indicators  
Green indicator  
The green LED lights up when the hard disk is accessed. You may not replace the hard disk at this  
time!  
Orange indicator  
The orange indicator flashes when, in conjunction with a Disk Array Controller, the configuration is  
determined or a rebuild is done. You may not replace the hard disk at this time!  
The orange indicator stays bright if the hard disk is deactivated and/or defective and can be replaced.  
8.1.2 Replacement of SCSI hard disk drive during operation  
Never pull out a hard disk during operation if you are not sure that the hard disk is  
operated on a disk array controller and is part of a disk array that operated in the mode  
RAID Level 1 or 5.  
!
Only if the orange indicator on the hard disk carrier remains bright may the hard disk be  
replaced while the system is in operation.  
!
If you replace an hard disk during operation, proceed as follows:  
Ê
Ê
Pull out the hard disk indicated as defective a few centimeters.  
Wait at least 60 seconds so that the Disk Array Controller can recognize that a hard disk has  
been removed and also so that the hard disk can come to rest.  
Ê
Ê
Pull the hard disk completely out.  
Insert the new hard disk.

8.1.3 Installing/removing a SCSI hard disk drive  
If a hard disk drive is to be installed in a bay in which no hard disk drive is previously installed, then  
the blind insert must be removed from this bay beforehand.

Ê
Swivel the slide-in module handle of the hard disk slide-in module completely upward to  
release the locking mechanism (1) and pull the blank insert out of the installation by (2) by the  
handle.  
The blank insert is installed in the reverse order.  
Keep the blank insert for future use. If the hard disk drive is removed again and not  
replaced with a new drive, then the blank insert must be reinstalled due to cooling, the  
applicable EMC regulations (regulations on electromagnetic compatibility) and fire  
protection.  
!

Ê
Push the hard disk carrier into the bay (1) as far as possible and then swing down the carrier  
handle completely to enable the locking mechanism to engage (2).  
The removal of the hard disk carrier is performed in the reverse order.

Each hard disk carrier is assigned to two drive indicators. The upper indicator (green) shows the  
drive activity. The lower indicator (orange) shows a hard disk error. However, a hard disk error can  
only be indicated when the drive is operated on a disk array controller.  
The SCSI bus is terminated and the hot-replace control realized on the platter.

Accessible drives  
8.2 Accessible drives  
The server accommodates three accessible drives (two 5 ¼-inch drives and one 3 ½-inch drive). As  
shipped, two drives are fitted: a 3 ½-inch floppy disk drive and a CD-ROM drive.  
When installing or removing drives, the following points must be observed for the configuration  
depending on the drive type (IDE or SCSI):  
IDE drive  
The drive must be entered in the BIOS Setup (see description of BIOS Setup).  
The proper master-slave setting must be set on the drive:  
If the drive is connected to an IDE channel alone, then the drive must be set as the  
master.  
If the drive is connected to an IDE channel together with a second drive, then one drive  
must be set as the master and the other as the slave.  
Only drives with the same speed should be connected to an IDE channel.  
SCSI drive  
The drive must be assigned a unique SCSI-ID. With narrow SCSI drives, an SCSI-ID from  
0 to 6, and with wide SCSI drives also from 8 to 15 can be assigned.  
The drive terminating resistor must be switched on or off in accordance with the following  
considerations:  
If the drive is connected in the middle of the SCSI cable, then the drive terminating  
resistor must be switched off.  
If the drive is connected at the end of the SCSI cable, then the drive terminating resistor  
must be switched on (also see the next point).  
If the drive is connected at the end of the SCSI cable, however the SCSI cable is  
equipped with its own terminating resistor, then the drive terminating resistor must be  
switched off.  
Ê
Always read the related documentation before installing or removing a drive.
