The server diagnostic programs are stored in upgradable read-only memory (ROM)  
on the system board. These programs are the primary method of testing the major  
components of the server: The system board, Ethernet controller, video controller,  
RAM, keyboard, mouse (pointing device), diskette drive, serial ports, hard drives,  
and parallel port. You can also use them to test some external devices. See  
Also, if you cannot determine whether a problem is caused by the hardware or by the  
software, you can run the diagnostic programs to confirm that the hardware is  
working properly.  
When you run the diagnostic programs, a single problem might cause several error  
messages. When this occurs, work to correct the cause of the first error message.  
After the cause of the first error message is corrected, the other error messages might  
not occur the next time you run the test.  
A failed system might be part of a shared DASD cluster (two or more systems sharing  
the same external storage device(s)). Prior to running diagnostics, verify that the  
failing system is not part of a shared DASD cluster.  
A system might be part of a cluster if:  
The customer identifies the system as part of a cluster.  
One or more external storage units are attached to the system and at least one of  
the attached storage units is additionally attached to another system or  
unidentifiable source.  
One or more systems are located near the failing system.  
If the failing system is suspected to be part of a shared DASD cluster, all diagnostic  
tests can be run except diagnostic tests which test the storage unit (DASD residing in  
the storage unit) or the storage adapter attached to the storage unit.  
Notes:  
1. For systems that are part of a shared DASD cluster, run one test at a time in  
looped mode. Do not run all tests in looped mode, as this could enable the DASD  
diagnostic tests.  
2. If multiple error codes are displayed, diagnose the first error code displayed.  
3. If the computer hangs with a POST error, go to the “Symptom-to-FRU index” on  
4. If the computer hangs and no error is displayed, go to “Undetermined problems”  
6. Safety information, see “Safety information” on page 133.

System-management capabilities  
System-management software is included with the server to manage the  
functions of the server locally and remotely. Refer to the documentation that  
comes with the system-management software for more information.  
Integrated network environment support  
The server comes with an Ethernet controller on the system board. This Ethernet  
controller has an interface for connecting to 10-Mbps or 100-Mbps networks. The  
server automatically selects between 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX environments.  
The controller provides full-duplex (FDX) capability, which allows simultaneous  
transmission and reception of data on the Ethernet local area network (LAN).  
IBM ServerGuide™ CDs  
The ServerGuide CDs that are included with the server provide programs to help  
you set up the server and install the network operating system (NOS). The  
ServerGuide program detects the hardware options that are installed, and  
provides the correct configuration programs and device drivers. In addition, the  
ServerGuide CDs include a variety of application programs for the server.  
Reliability, availability, and serviceability  
Three of the most important considerations in server design are reliability, availability,  
and serviceability (RAS). The RAS factors help to ensure the integrity of the data that  
is stored on the server, the availability of the server when it is needed; and the ease  
with which problems can be diagnosed and repaired.  
The following is an abbreviated list of the RAS features that e server supports:  
Automatic restart after a power failure  
Cyclic redundancy check (CRC) checking on the small computer system interface  
(SCSI) buses  
Diagnostic light-emitting diodes (LEDs)  
Error checking and correcting (ECC) memory

outlet, the server can start in any of the following ways:  
You can press the power-control button on the front of the server to start the  
server.  
Notes:  
1. You can install a circular disk over the power-control button to prevent  
accidental manual power-off. This disk, known as the power-control button  
shield, comes with your server.  
2. After you plug the power cord of your server into an electrical outlet, wait  
approximately 20 seconds before pressing the power-control button. During  
this time, the system is initializing; therefore, the power-control button does  
not respond.  
If the server is turned on and a power failure occurs, the server will start  
automatically when power is restored.  
The Wake on LAN feature will turn on the server at the set time (when a Magic  
Packet is received), provided that all of the following conditions are met:  
— AC power is present.  
— The server is either off or shut down from an Advanced Configuration and  
Power Interface (ACPI) operating system.

This section provides basic troubleshooting information to help you resolve some  
common problems that might occur with the server.  
If you cannot locate and correct the problem using the information in this section,  
refer to “Symptom-to-FRU index” on page 111 for more information.  
Diagnostic tools overview  
The following tools are available to help you identify and resolve hardware-related  
problems:  
POST beep codes, error messages, and error logs  
The power-on self-test (POST) generates beep codes and messages to indicate  
successful test completion or the detection of a problem. See “POST” for more  
information.  
Diagnostic programs and error messages  
The server diagnostic programs are stored in upgradable read-only memory  
(ROM) on the system board. These programs are the primary method of testing  
the major components of the server. See “Diagnostic programs and error  
messages” on page 13 for more information.  
Error symptoms  
These charts list problem symptoms, along with suggested steps to correct the  
problems. See “Diagnosing errors” on page 21 for more information.  
Diagnostic LEDs  
The server has light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to help you identify problems with  
server components. These LEDs are part of the diagnostics that are built into the  
server. See “Diagnostic LEDs” on page 18 for more information.  
POST  
When you turn on the server, it performs a series of tests to check the operation of  
server components and some of the options installed in the server. This series of tests  
is called the power-on self-test or POST.  
If POST finishes without detecting any problems, a single beep sounds and the first  
screen of the operating system or application program appears.

If POST detects a problem, more than one beep sounds and an error message appears  
information.  
Notes:  
1. If you have a power-on password set, you must type the password and press  
Enter, when prompted, before POST will continue.  
2. A single problem might cause several error messages. When this occurs, work to  
correct the cause of the first error message. After you correct the cause of the first  
error message, the other error messages usually will not occur the next time you  
run the test.  
POST beep codes  
POST generates beep codes to indicate successful completion or the detection of a  
problem.  
One beep indicates the successful completion of POST.  
More than one beep indicates that POST detected a problem. For more  
POST error messages  
POST error messages occur during startup when POST finds a problem with the  
hardware or detects a change in the hardware configuration. For a list of POST  
POST error log  
The POST error log contains the three most recent error codes and messages that the  
system generated during POST.  
To view the contents of the error logs, start the Configuration/ Setup Utility program  
Error Logs from the main menu.  
Small computer system interface messages  
The following table lists actions to take if you receive a SCSI error message.  
Note: If your server does not have a hard disk drive, ignore any message that  
indicates that the BIOS is not installed.  
You will get these messages only when running the SCSISelect Utility.

SCSI Messages  
Description  
All  
One or more of the following might be causing the problem.  
A failing SCSI device (adapter, drive, controller)  
An improper SCSI configuration  
Duplicate SCSI IDs in the same SCSI chain  
An improperly installed SCSI terminator  
A defective SCSI terminator  
An improperly installed cable  
A defective cable  
Action:  
Verify that:  
The external SCSI devices are turned on. External SCSI devices must  
be turned on before the server.  
The cables for all external SCSI devices are connected correctly.  
The last device in each SCSI chain is terminated properly.  
The SCSI devices are configured correctly.  
If the above items are correct, run the diagnostic programs to obtain  
additional information about the failing device. If the error remains or  
recurs, call for service.  
Table 1. SCSI messages.  
Diagnostic programs and error messages  
The server diagnostic programs are stored in upgradable read-only memory (ROM)  
on the system board. These programs are the primary method of testing the major  
components of the server.  
Diagnostic error messages indicate that a problem exists; they are not necessarily  
intended to be used to identify a failing part. Troubleshooting and servicing of  
complex problems that are indicated by error messages should be performed by  
trained service personnel.  
Sometimes the first error to occur causes additional errors. In this case, the server  
displays more than one error message. Always follow the suggested action  
instructions for the first error message that appears.  
The following sections contain the error codes that might appear in the detailed test  
log and summary log when running the diagnostic programs.  
The error code format is as follows:  
fff-ttt-iii-date-cc-text message  
where:  
fff  
is the three-digit function code that indicates the function being  
tested when the error occurred. For example, function code 089 is for  
the microprocessor.  
ttt  
is the three-digit failure code that indicates the exact test failure that  
was encountered.  
Diagnostics 13

iii  
is the three-digit device ID.  
date  
is the date that the diagnostic test was run and the error recorded.  
is the check digit that is used to verify the validity of the information.  
is the diagnostic message that indicates the reason for the problem.

Power checkout  
Power problems can be difficult to troubleshoot. For instance, a short circuit can exist  
anywhere on any of the power distribution busses. Usually a short circuit will cause  
the power subsystem to shut down because of an overcurrent condition.  
A general procedure for troubleshooting power problems is as follows:  
1. Power off the system and disconnect the AC cord(s).  
2. Check for loose cables in the power subsystem. Also check for short circuits, for  
instance if there is a loose screw causing a short circuit on a circuit board.  
3. Remove adapters and disconnect the cables and power connectors to all internal  
and external devices until system is at minimum configuration required for  
power on (see "Minimum operating requirements" on page 125).  
4. Reconnect the AC cord and power on the system. If the system powers up  
successfully, replace adapters and devices one at a time until the problem is  
isolated. If system does not power up from minimal configuration, replace FRUs  
of minimal configuration one at a time until the problem is isolated.  
To use this method it is important to know the minimum configuration required for a  
system to power up (see page 125).  
Recovering BIOS  
If the BIOS has become damaged, such as from a power failure during a flash update,  
you can recover the BIOS using the flash ROM page-swap jumper (J38) and a BIOS  
flash diskette.  
Note: You can obtain a BIOS flash diskette from one of the following sources:  
Use the ServerGuide program to make a BIOS flash diskette.  
Download a BIOS flash diskette from the World Wide Web. Go to  
http:/ / www.ibm.com/ pc/ support/ , select IBM Server Support, and  
make the selections for your server.  
The flash memory of your server consists of a primary page and a backup page. The  
J38 jumper controls which page is used to start the server. If the BIOS in the primary  
page is damaged, you can use the backup page to start the server; then, start the BIOS  
flash diskette to restore the BIOS to the primary page.  
To recover the BIOS, do the following:  
1. Turn off the server and peripheral devices and disconnect all external cables and  
power cords; then, remove the cover.  
2. Locate jumper J38 on the system board.

3. Move J38 to the lo setting (pins 1 and 2) to enable BIOS recovery mode.  
4. Reconnect all external cables and power cords and turn on the peripheral devices.  
5. Insert the BIOS flash diskette in the diskette drive.  
6. Restart the server. The system begins the power-on self-test (POST).  
7. Select 1 - Update POST/BIOS from the menu that contains various flash (update)  
options.  
8. When prompted as to whether you want to save the current code to a diskette,  
press N.  
9. When prompted to choose a language, select a language (from 0 to 7) and press  
Enter to accept your choice.  
10. Do not restart your system at this time.  
11. Remove the BIOS flash diskette from the diskette drive.  
12. Turn off the server.  
13. Move jumper J38 to the hi setting (pins 2 and 3) to return to normal startup mode.  
14. Restart the server.  
Identifying problems using status LEDs  
The server has diagnostic LEDs to help you identify problems with some server  
components. Use the diagnostic LEDs to identify the failing or incorrectly installed  
components.  
Diagnostics 17  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
 
Front panel and system board LEDs  
The server does not contain a diagnostic or information panel. The system error LED  
is on the front panel inside the server. All of the remaining error LEDs are on the  
system board, adjacent to the failing components. See “Diagnostic LEDs” for  
information on identifying problems using these LEDs.  
The meanings of these LEDs are as follows:  
CPU1  
Microprocessor number 1 (connector U12) fault  
Microprocessor number 2 (connector U11) fault  
Fan number 1 (connector J10) failure (see note 1)

1. The fan and VRM LEDs will illuminate only if the optional system management  
adapter is installed in the server.  
2. The server does not support user-replaceable power supplies or fans.  
Diagnostic LEDs  
You can use the diagnostic LEDs built into the server to quickly identify the type of  
system error that occurred. The server is designed so that LEDs remain illuminated  
when the server shuts down, as long as the power supply is operating properly. This  
feature helps you to isolate the problem if an error causes the server to shut down. To

Troubleshooting the Ethernet controller  
This section provides troubleshooting information for problems that might occur with  
the 10/ 100 Mbps Ethernet controller.  
Network connection problems  
If the Ethernet controller cannot connect to the network, check the following:  
Make sure that the cable is installed correctly.  
The network cable must be securely attached at all connections. If the cable is  
attached but the problem persists, try a different cable.  
If you set the Ethernet controller to operate at 100 Mbps, you must use Category 5  
cabling.  
If you directly connect two workstations (without a hub), or if you are not using a  
hub with X ports, use a crossover cable.  
Note: To determine whether a hub has an X port, check the port label. If the label  
contains an X, the hub has an X port.  
Determine if the hub supports auto-negotiation. If not, try configuring the  
integrated Ethernet controller manually to match the speed and duplex mode of  
the hub.  
Check the LAN activity light on the front of the server. The LAN activity light  
illuminates when the Ethernet controller sends or receives data over the Ethernet  
network. If the LAN activity light is off, make sure that the hub and network are  
operating and that the correct device drivers are loaded.  
Make sure that you are using the correct device drivers, supplied with your  
server.  
Check for operating system-specific causes for the problem.  
Make sure that the device drivers on the client and server are using the same  
protocol.  
Test the Ethernet controller.  
How you test the Ethernet controller depends on which operating system you are  
using (see the Ethernet controller device driver README file).

device drivers.  
The PCI BIOS interrupt settings are incorrect.  
Check the following:  
Determine if the interrupt (IRQ) setting assigned to the Ethernet  
controller is also assigned to another device in the  
Configuration/ Setup Utility program.  
Although interrupt sharing is allowed for PCI devices, some  
devices do not function well when they share an interrupt with  
a dissimilar PCI device. Try changing the IRQ assigned to the  
Ethernet controller or the other device. For example, for  
NetWare Versions 3 and 4 it is recommended that disk  
controllers not share interrupts with LAN controllers.

Adapter considerations  
Before you install adapters, review the following:  
Locate the documentation that comes with the adapter and follow those  
instructions in addition to the instructions given in this chapter. If you need to  
change switch or jumper settings on your adapter, follow the instructions that  
come with the adapter.  
You can install full-length adapters in all PCI slots.  
You can install a 32-bit adapter in any of the PCI slots, but you might want to  
install it in a 32-bit slot and use the 64-bit slots for 64-bit adapters.  
The server supports 5.0V and universal PCI adapters; it does not support 3.3V  
adapters.  
The server uses a rotational interrupt technique to configure PCI adapters.  
Because of this technique, you can install a variety of PCI adapters that currently  
do not support sharing of PCI interrupts.  
The server has two PCI buses. PCI slots 1 and 2 are on PCI bus A and PCI slots 3,  
4, and 5 are on PCI bus B.  
Note: PCI bus A is sometimes referred to as bus 0; PCI bus B is sometimes  
referred to as bus 1.  
The system scans PCI slots 1 through 5 to assign system resources; then the  
system starts (boots) the PCI devices in the following order: PCI slots 1 and 2,  
system board SCSI devices, and then PCI slots 3 through 5.  
If you plan to use the Wake on LAN (WOL) function in the server, you must  
install a Wake on LAN-enabled NIC adapter in PCI slot 1, and install the Wake on  
LAN cable that comes with the Wake on LAN adapter to connect this adapter to  
the system board. You must use a Wake on LAN-enabled adapter as identified in  
the xSeries 220 ServerProven list at http:/ / www.ibm.com/ pc/ compat/ . Only  
PCI slot 1 supports a Wake on LAN-enabled adapter. For additional information  
on the Wake on LAN function, adapters, and cables, refer to the documentation  
that comes with the Wake on LAN adapters.  
If you plan to use the optional system management adapter in the server, you  
must install the optional system management adapter in PCI slot 2. Only PCI slot

3. Carefully remove the support bracket assembly from the server (see “Removing  
the support bracket assembly” on page 61). Store the cover and the support  
bracket assembly in a safe place.  
4. Determine which PCI slot you will use for the adapter.  
Note: Check the instructions that come with the adapter for any requirements or  
restrictions.  
5. Remove the rear adapter retaining bracket from the server. If you are installing a  
full-length adapter, rotate the front adapter support bracket to the open  
(unlocked) position.  
6. Remove the expansion-slot cover. Store it in a safe place for future use.  
Installing options 65  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
   
Attention: Expansion-slot covers must be installed on all vacant slots. This  
maintains the electronic emission characteristics of the system and ensures proper  
cooling of system components.  
7. Refer to the documentation that comes with your adapter for any cabling  
instructions. It might be easier for you to route cables before you install the  
adapter.  
8. Remove the adapter from the static-protective package.  
Attention: Avoid touching the components and gold-edge connectors on the  
adapter.  
9. Place the adapter, component-side up, on a flat, static-protective surface.  
10. Set any jumpers or switches as described by the adapter manufacturer.  
11. Install the adapter:  
a. Carefully grasp the adapter by its top edge or upper corners, and align it with  
the expansion slot on the system board.  
b. Press the adapter firmly into the expansion slot.  
Attention: When you install an adapter in the server, be sure that it is  
completely and correctly seated in the system-board connector before you  
apply power. Incomplete insertion might cause damage to the system board  
or the adapter.  
c. When the adapter is fully seated, release the front adapter support bracket by  
pushing inward on the latch. Make sure that the front adapter support  
bracket holds the adapter securely in place.  
d. If you opened the front adapter support bracket, rotate it to the closed  
(locked) position; then, reinstall the rear adapter retaining bracket in the  
server.  
12. Connect any needed cables to the adapter.  
Attention: Route cables so that they do not block the flow of air from the fans.

Installing internal drives  
Different types of drives allow the system to read multiple types of media and store  
more data. Several types of drives are available, such as:  
Diskette (preinstalled)  
Hard disk (preinstalled on some models)  
CD-ROM (preinstalled)  
Tape  
Internal drive bays  
Internal drives are installed in bays. The bays of the xSeries 220 are in the front of the  
server, as shown in the following illustration.

To remove or install a drive, you must turn off the server first, unless you are  
removing or installing a hot-swap hard disk drive. Diskette drives, tape drives, and  
CD-ROM drives are removable-media drives. You can install removable-media drives  
in bays 1, 2, 3, and 4. You can install SCSI hard disk drives in bays 4, 5, 6, and 7.  
The server comes with a 3.5-inch, 1.44 MB diskette drive in bay 3, an integrated  
drive electronics (IDE) CD-ROM drive in bay 1, and a hard disk drive in bay 7 (in  
some models).  
The xSeries 220 server supports five 3.5-inch drives; however, the server supports  
only one diskette drive.  
The diskette drive uses 1 MB and 2 MB diskettes. For optimum use, format 1 MB  
diskettes to 720 KB and format 2 MB diskettes to 1.44 MB.  
The xSeries 220 server supports two 5.25-inch drives and four SCSI hard disk  
drives. The server does not support IDE hard disk drives. Some models support  
hot-swap hard disk drives. Other models support only non-hot-swap hard disk  
drives. Refer to the documentation that comes with the server for additional  
information.  
The server supports four 1-inch (26 mm) slim, 3.5-inch SCSI hard disk drives in  
the hard disk drive bays (4, 5, 6, and 7). You can install four non-hot-swap hard  
disk drives in the models that have the standard non-hot-swap drive cage. You  
can install three hot-swap hard disk drives and one non-hot-swap hard disk drive  
in the models that come with the hot-swap drive cage. Both the non-hot-swap and  
hot-swap drive cages hold a maximum of three hard disk drives. The drive cages  
comprise bays 5, 6, and 7.  
Bay 2 comes without a device installed. This bay is for a 5.25-inch, half-high,  
removable-media drive, such as a tape backup drive.  
Bay 4 is for a 3.5-inch, slim, removable-media drive or SCSI hard disk drive.

you reinstall the support bracket assembly. (See System board options  
connectors” on page 55 for connector location.)  
Installing a hot-swap hard disk drive in bay 5, 6, or 7  
If the server is a hot-swap model, it contains hardware that you can use to replace a  
failed hard disk drive without turning off the server. Therefore, you have the  
advantage of continuing to operate the system while a hard disk drive is removed or  
installed. These drives are known as hot-swap drives. If these drives are connected to  
an optional controller, such as a ServeRAID controller, that supports this function, and  
if one of these drives becomes defective, the ServeRAID controller can rebuild the  
data from that drive onto another hot-swap drive. Refer to the information that comes  
with the ServeRAID controller for details.  
Each hot-swap drive has two indicator lights: the hard disk drive activity light and  
the hard disk drive status light. When the green hard disk drive activity light is  
flashing, the controller is accessing the hard disk drive. When this occurs, the SCSI  
activity light on the front of the server also illuminates. The SCSI activity light is  
illustrated and described in Server controls and indicators” on page 6. If the amber  
hard disk drive status light for a drive is lit continuously, that individual drive is  
faulty and requires replacement. When the hard disk drive status light indicates a  
drive fault, you can replace a hot-swap drive without turning off the server.  
Note: The hard disk drive activity light is also known as the SCSI hard disk drive  
activity light.  
Each hot-swap drive that you plan to install must be mounted in a hot-swap-drive  
tray. The drive must have a single connector attachment (SCA) connector. Hot-swap-  
drive trays come with hot-swap drives.  
The hot-swap bays connect to a SCSI backplane. This backplane is the printed circuit  
board behind the bay. The backplane controls the SCSI IDs for the hot-swap drives.  
The following illustration shows the hot-swap-drive backplane component locations,  
as viewed from the front of the server.  
Note: The illustrations in this document might differ slightly from your hardware.

To maintain proper system cooling, do not operate the server for more than 10  
minutes without either a drive or a filler panel installed in each bay.  
To install a hot-swap hard disk drive in bay 5, 6, or 7, do the following:  
Note: You do not have to turn off the server to install hot-swap hard disk drives  
in these bays.  
3. Remove the filler panel from one of the empty hot-swap bays by inserting your  
finger into the depression at the left side of the filler panel and pulling it away  
from the server.  
4. Install the hard disk drive in the hot-swap bay:  
a. Ensure that the tray handle is open (that is, perpendicular to the drive).  
b. Align the drive tray assembly with the guide rails in the bay.  
c. Gently push the drive tray assembly into the bay until the drive stops.  
d. Push the tray handle to the closed (locked) position.  
e. Check the hard disk drive status light to verify that the hard disk drive is  
operating properly.  
If the amber hard disk drive status light for a drive is lit continuously, that  
individual drive is faulty and needs to be replaced. If the green hard disk  
drive activity light is flashing, the drive is being accessed.  
Note: If the server has a ServeRAID controller, you might need to reconfigure the  
disk arrays after installing hard disk drives. Refer to the information that  
comes with the ServeRAID controller.

Installing memory modules  
Adding memory to the server is an easy way to make programs run faster. You can  
increase the amount of memory in the server by installing options called memory-  
module kits. Each kit contains one industry-standard, dual in-line memory module  
(DIMM). The server uses a noninterleaved memory configuration.  
The server comes with a dual in-line memory module (DIMM) that is installed on the  
system board in DIMM slot 1 (connector J19).  
Notes:  
1. When installing additional memory modules, install the second memory module  
in the connector labeled DIMM3 (J23), the third in DIMM2 (J21), and the fourth in  
DIMM4 (J26). (See the following illustration for memory-connector locations.)  
2. The xSeries 220 server supports 128 MB, 256 MB, 512 MB, and 1 GB DIMMs.  
These DIMMs can be installed in any memory slot. The server supports a  
minimum of 128 MB and a maximum of 4GB of system memory. See the  
ServerProven list at http:/ / www.ibm.com/ pc/ compat/ for a list of memory  
modules for use with the server.  
3. Installing or removing DIMMs changes the configuration information in the  
server. Therefore, after installing or removing a DIMM, you must save the new  
configuration information by using the Configuration/ Setup Utility program.  
When you restart the server, the system displays a message indicating that the  
memory configuration has changed. Start the Configuration/ Setup Utility  
program and select Save Settings. See “Configuring the server” on page 29 for  
more information.

2. Review the information in Before you begin” on page 58 and the documentation  
that comes with the option.  
3. Turn off the server and peripheral devices, and disconnect all external cables and  
power cords; then, remove the cover (see “Removing the side cover” on page 59  
for details).  
4. Select the connector in which to install the DIMM.  
5. Touch the static-protective package containing the DIMM to any unpainted metal  
surface on the server. Then, remove the DIMM from the package.  
Attention: To avoid breaking the retaining clips or damaging the DIMM  
connectors, handle the clips gently.  
6. Install the DIMM:  
a. Open the retaining clips on the connector.  
b. Turn the DIMM so that the pins align correctly with the connector.  
c. Insert the DIMM into the connector by pressing on one edge of the DIMM  
and then on the other edge of the DIMM. Ensure that you press straight into  
the connector.  
d. Make sure that the retaining clips are in the closed position. If a gap exists  
between the DIMM and the retaining clips, the DIMM has not been properly  
installed. In this case, open the retaining clips and remove the DIMM; then,  
reinsert the DIMM.  
7. If you have other options to install or remove, do so now; otherwise, go to  
Attention: When you restart the server, the system displays a message indicating that  
the memory configuration has changed.  
If you installed additional memory, start the Configuration / Setup Utility  
program and select Save Settings.  
If you just replaced a failed DIMM, you must start the Configuration / Setup  
Utility program, select Advanced Setup, select Memory Settings, highlight the  
connector or bank of connectors that you want to enable, then select Enable.  
In some memory configurations, the 3-3-3 beep code might sound during POST  
followed by a blank screen. If this occurs, you must restart the server three times  
to force the system BIOS to reset the memory connector or bank of connectors  
from Disabled to Enabled.  
Installing and removing a microprocessor  
The server comes with one microprocessor, which is installed on the system board. If  
you install an additional microprocessor kit, the server can operate as a symmetric  
multiprocessing (SMP) server. With SMP, certain operating systems and application  
programs can distribute the processing load between the microprocessors. This  
enhances performance for database and point-of-sale applications, integrated  
manufacturing solutions, and other applications.  
Notes:  
1. Before you install a new microprocessor, review the documentation that comes  
with the microprocessor, so that you can determine whether you need to update  
the server basic input/ output system (BIOS). The latest level of BIOS for the  
server is available through the World Wide Web.  
Installing options 77  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
   
2. Obtain an SMP-capable operating system (optional). For a list of supported  
operating systems, see http:/ / www.ibm.com/ pc/ compat/ on the World Wide  
Web.  
3. The server comes with one microprocessor, which is installed in microprocessor  
connector U12 (the microprocessor connector that is closer to the power supply).  
This is the startup (boot) microprocessor. If you install a microprocessor in  
microprocessor connector U11, that one becomes the startup microprocessor, and  
the microprocessor that is installed in microprocessor connector U12 is the  
application microprocessor. You must also install a VRM when you install a  
microprocessor.  
4. If you are installing a microprocessor that has a speed of 933 MHz or higher, you  
must also install a fan sink and connect the fan-sink power cable to the system  
board.  
5. The illustrations in this document might differ slightly from your server.  
6. If necessary, see “System board options connectors” on page 55 for connector  
locations.  
Attention:  
To avoid damage and ensure proper server operation when you install a new or  
additional microprocessor, use microprocessors that have the same cache size and  
type and the same clock speed. Microprocessor internal clock frequencies and  
external clock frequencies must be identical. See the ServerProven list at  
http:/ / www.ibm.com/ pc/ compat for a list of microprocessors for use with the  
server.  
When you handle electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive devices, take precautions  
to avoid damage from static electricity. For details on handling these devices, see

SCSI port  
The server has an integrated small computer system interface (SCSI) controller with  
an internal connector (J41) on the system board. This controller supports an Ultra160  
SCSI internal channel. This channel supports up to 15 SCSI devices. In addition, this  
controller uses:  
Double-transition clocking to achieve high transfer rates  
Domain name validation to negotiate compatible data transfer speeds with each  
device  
Cyclic-redundancy checking (CRC), instead of the usual parity checking, to  
significantly improve data reliability  
An active terminator on the system board for SCSI bus termination  
If you install a SCSI adapter in the server, you can use its SCSI connector to connect  
different types of small computer system interface (SCSI) devices.  
Note: If you install a PCI redundant array of independent disks (RAID) adapter, you  
can move the SCSI cable from the system-board SCSI connector to an internal  
channel connector on the RAID adapter if you want to control the internal  
drives from the adapter.  
SCSI cabling requirements  
A SCSI cable comes with the server so that you can connect internal SCSI devices to  
the SCSI controller on the system board. A 2-drop SCSI cable comes with the models  
that have the hot-swap drive cage option. A 5-drop SCSI cable comes with the models  
that have the standard non-hot-swap drive cage. If you plan to use the SCSI cable to  
connect internal SCSI devices to another SCSI or ServeRAID controller (for example,  
an optional PCI adapter), you must purchase and install an optional SCSI cable to  
connect other SCSI devices (for example, a tape drive) to the SCSI connector on the  
system board. If you plan to attach external SCSI devices, you must install an optional  
SCSI adapter and order additional SCSI cables.  
For information about the maximum length of SCSI cable between the terminated  
ends of the cable, refer to the ANSI SCSI standards. Adhering to these standards will  
help ensure that the server operates properly.  
Setting SCSI IDs  
Each SCSI device that is connected to a SCSI controller or adapter must have a unique  
SCSI ID. This ID enables the SCSI controller or adapter to identify the device and  
ensure that different devices on the same SCSI channel do not attempt to transfer data  
simultaneously. SCSI devices that are connected to different SCSI channels can have  
duplicate SCSI IDs.  
To install external SCSI devices, you must first install an optional SCSI PCI adapter.  
Refer to the information that is provided with the device for instructions to set its SCSI  
ID.

Ethernet port  
The server comes with an integrated Ethernet controller. This controller provides an  
interface for connecting to 10-Mbps or 100-Mbps networks and provides full-duplex  
(FDX) capability, which enables simultaneous transmission and reception of data on  
the Ethernet local area network (LAN).  
To access the Ethernet port, connect a Category 3, 4, or 5 unshielded twisted-pair  
(UTP) cable to the RJ-45 connector on the rear of the server.  
Note: The 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet standard requires that the cabling in the  
network be Category 5 or higher.  
Configuring the Ethernet controller  
When you connect the server to the network, the Ethernet controller automatically  
detects the data-transfer rate (10 Mbps or 100 Mbps) on the network and then sets the  
controller to operate at the appropriate rate. In addition, if the Ethernet port that the  
server is connected to supports auto-negotiation, the Ethernet controller will set the  
appropriate duplex state. That is, the Ethernet controller will adjust to the network  
data rate, whether the data rate is standard Ethernet (10BASE-T), Fast Ethernet  
(100BASE-TX), half duplex (HDX), or full duplex (FDX). The controller supports half-  
duplex (HDX) and full-duplex (FDX) modes at both speeds.  
The Ethernet controller is a PCI Plug and Play device. You do not need to set any  
jumpers or configure the controller for the operating system before you use the  
Ethernet controller. However, you must install a device driver to enable the operating  
system to address the Ethernet controller. The device drivers are provided on the  
ServerGuide CDs.  
Failover for redundant Ethernet  
The IBM 10/ 100 Ethernet Adapter or the IBM 10/ 100 Etherjet™ PCI family of  
adapters are optional redundant network interface cards (NIC adapters) that you can  
install in the server. If you install this NIC adapter and connect it to the same logical  
segment as the primary Ethernet controller, you can configure the server to support a  
failover function. You can configure either the integrated Ethernet controller or the  
NIC adapter as the primary Ethernet controller. In failover mode, if the primary  
Ethernet controller detects a link failure, all Ethernet traffic that is associated with it is  
switched to the redundant (secondary) controller. This switching occurs without any  
user intervention. When the primary link is restored to an operational state, the  
Ethernet traffic switches back to the primary Ethernet controller.  
High-performance Ethernet modes  
The Ethernet controller supports optional modes, such as teaming, priority packets,  
and virtual LANs, which provide higher performance and throughput for the server.  
Teaming Mode: The Ethernet controller provides options, called teaming options.  
These options increase throughput and fault tolerance when running with Windows  
NT 4.0 or NetWare 4.1x or later.  
Adapter fault tolerance (AFT) provides automatic redundancy for the adapter. If  
the primary adapter fails, the secondary adapter takes over. Adapter fault  
tolerance supports from two to four adapters per team.  
Adaptive load balancing (ALB) enables you to balance the transmission data  
flow among two to four adapters. ALB also includes the AFT option. You can use  
ALB with any 100BASE-TX switch.  
Installing options 93  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
   
Cisco Fast EtherChannel (FEC) creates a team of two to four adapters to increase  
transmission and reception thoughput. FEC also includes the AFT option. You can  
use FEC only with a switch that has FEC capability.  
Teaming requires you to install at least one additional Ethernet adapter. For additional  
information about the teaming modes, refer to the documentation that comes with  
these additional adapters.  
Priority Packet Mode: Priority Packet is a traffic-prioritization utility that you can  
use to set up filters to process high-priority traffic before normal traffic. You can send  
information from critical nodes or applications with an indicated priority. Because  
you set this priority at the host or entry point of the network, the network devices can  
base forwarding decisions on priority information that is defined in the packet.  
Priority Packet information is available on the IBM Networking Web site at  
http:/ / www.ibm.com/ networking/ support  
Priority Packet prioritizes traffic based on priority filters. These are parameters that  
you assign to outgoing (transmit) packets. Using the Priority Filter Wizard, you can  
set up predefined or custom priority filters based on a node (MAC) address, Ethernet  
type, or by various properties of the protocol and port. Priority Packet provides two  
different methods for prioritizing traffic: IEEE 802.1p tagging and High Priority  
Queue.  
IEEE 802.1p is a new IEEE standard for tagging, or adding additional bytes of  
information to packets with different priority levels. Packets are tagged with 4  
additional bytes, which increase the packet size and indicate a priority level. When  
you send these packets out on the network, the higher priority packets are transferred  
first. Priority packet tagging (also known as Traffic Class Expediting) enables the  
adapter to work with other elements of the network (such as switches and routers) to  
deliver priority packets first. You can assign specific priority levels from 0 (low) to 7  
(high).  
You can assign values to packets based on their priority when you use the IEEE 802.1p  
standard for packet tagging. This method requires a network infrastructure that  
supports packet tagging. The routing devices that receive and transfer these packets  
on your network must support 802.1p for tagging to be effective.  
After you set up the priority filter in Priority Packet, you must start IBMSet and select  
802.1p/802.1Q Tagging on the Advanced tab.  
Note: IEEE 802.1p tagging increases the size of the packets that it tags. Some hubs  
and switches will not recognize the larger packets and will drop them. Check  
your hub or switch documentation to see if they support 802.1p. (You can  
configure the switch to strip the tags from the packets and send it on to the  
next destination as normal traffic.) If these devices do not support 802.1p or if  
you are not sure, use High Priority Queue (HPQ) to prioritize network traffic.  
The requirements for effectively using IEEE 802.1p tagging are:  
The other devices receiving and routing 802.1p tagged packets must support  
802.1p.  
The adapters on these devices must support 802.1p. The Ethernet controller in the  
xSeries 220 and all IBM 10/ 100 Ethernet Security Adapters support 802.1p.  
The adapter cannot be assigned to an adapter team.  
If you are setting up VLANs and packet tagging on the same adapter,  
802.1p/ 802.1Q tagging must be enabled on the IBMSet Advanced tab.  
If your network infrastructure devices do not support IEEE 802.1p or you are not sure,  
you can still define filters and send packets as high priority. While High Priority  
94 Hardware Maintenance Manual: xSeries 220  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Queue (HPQ) does not provide the precise priority levels of 802.1p tagging, it does  
assign traffic as either high or low priority and sends high-priority packets first.  
Therefore, if there are multiple applications on a system that is sending packets, the  
packets from the application with a filter are sent out first. HPQ does not change  
network routing, nor does it add any information to the packets.  
To assign HPQ, you can specify it using Priority Packet when you create or assign a  
filter.  
To effectively use HPQ tagging, the adapter cannot be assigned to an adapter team.  
Virtual LAN Mode: A virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical grouping of network devices  
that are put together as a LAN, regardless of their physical grouping or collision  
domains. Using VLANs increases network performance and improves network  
security.  
VLANs offer you the ability to group users and devices together into logical  
workgroups. This can simplify network administration when you are connecting  
clients to servers that are geographically dispersed across a building, campus, or  
enterprise network.  
Normally, VLANs are configured at the switch, and any computer can be a member of  
one VLAN per installed network adapter. The Ethernet controller supersedes this by  
communicating directly with the switch, enabling multiple VLANs on a single  
network adapter (up to 64 VLANs).  
To set up VLAN membership, the Ethernet controller must be attached to a switch  
that has VLAN capability. You also need to use Windows NT 4.0 or later, or Novell  
NetWare 4.1x or later.  
Notes:  
1. Windows NT versions prior to 4.0 do not support VLANs.  
2. VLANs require NT 4.0 with Service Pack 3.0 and the NDIS driver hotfix from  
Microsoft.  
3. In Windows NT, VLANs cannot be implemented on controllers that have been  
configured for teaming options. NetWare can support teaming options and  
VLANs on the same adapters.  
To join a VLAN from Windows NT 4.0:  
1. Create a VLAN on the switch. Use the parameters that you assign there to join the  
VLAN from the server. Refer to your switch documentation for more information.  
2. In the Control Panel window, double-click the Network icon.  
3. On the Adapters tab, select the adapter that you want to be on the VLAN, and  
click Properties.  
4. In IBMSet, click Join VLAN. Note that VLANs cannot be assigned to adapters  
that are already defined to have an adapter teaming option.  
5. Type the VLAN ID and VLAN name. The VLAN ID must match the VLAN ID of  
the switch. The ID range is from 1 to 1000. The VLAN name is for information  
only and does not need to match the name on the switch.  
6. Click Join VLAN.Repeat steps 3. through 5. for each VLAN that you want the  
server to join. The VLANs that you add are listed on the Adapters tab.  
7. Click Close and restart the computer.

Notes:  
1. Check the configuration before you replace a FRU. Configuration problems can  
cause false errors and symptoms.  
2. The default configuration can be loaded by starting the system and then pressing  
the reset button four times, waiting 15 seconds between each press. Once the  
configuration has reset to the default, it must be saved in Setup to be stored in  
CMOS.  
3. For IBM devices not supported by index, refer to the manual for that device.  
The Symptom-to-FRU lists symptoms, errors, and the possible causes. The most  
likely cause is listed first. Use this Symptom-to-FRU index to help you decide which  
FRUs to have available when servicing the computer. The POST BIOS displays POST  
error codes and messages on the screen.  
Beep symptoms  
Beep symptoms are short tones or a series of short tones separated by pauses  
(intervals without sound). See the following examples.  
Note: One beep after successfully completing POST indicates the system is  
functioning properly.

Undetermined problems  
You are here because the diagnostic tests did not identify the failure, the Devices List  
is incorrect, or the system is inoperative.  
Note: A corrupt CMOS can cause undetermined problems.  
If power problems are suspected:  
1. Power-off the computer.  
2. Be sure the system is cabled correctly.

3. Remove or disconnect the following (one at a time) until you find the failure  
(power-on the computer and reconfigure each time).  
Any external devices  
Surge suppressor device (on the computer)  
Modem, printer, mouse, or non-IBM devices  
Each adapter  
Drives  
Memory Modules (Minimum requirement = one 128 MB DIMM)  
Note: Minimum operating requirements are:  
a. 1 Power Supply  
b. System Board  
c. 1 Microprocessor  
d. 1 Terminator Card in Slot 2  
e. 1 Memory Module (minimum of 1 DIMM in slot labeled DIMM 1)  
4. Power-on the computer. If the problem remains, suspect the following FRUs in  
the order listed:  
Power Supply  
System Board  
Notes:  
1. If the problem goes away when you remove an adapter from the system, and  
replacing that adapter does not correct the problem, suspect the system board,  
then the power supply.  
2. If you suspect a networking problem and all the system tests pass, suspect a  
network cabling problem external to the system.

Related service information  
Note: The service procedures are designed to help you isolate problems. They are  
written with the assumption that you have model-specific training on all  
computers, or that are familiar with the computers, functions, terminology,  
and service information provided in this manual.  
Safety information  
The following section contains the safety information that you need to be familiar  
with before servicing an IBM computer.  
General safety  
Follow these rules to ensure general safety:  
Observe good housekeeping in the area of the machines during and after  
maintenance.  
When lifting any heavy object:  
1. Ensure you can stand safely without slipping.  
2. Distribute the weight of the object equally between your feet.  
3. Use a slow lifting force. Never move suddenly or twist when you attempt to  
lift.  
4. Lift by standing or by pushing up with your leg muscles; this action removes  
the strain from the muscles in your back. Do not attempt to lift any objects that  
weigh more than 16 kg (35 lb) or objects that you think are too heavy for you.  
Do not perform any action that causes hazards to the customer, or that makes the  
equipment unsafe.  
Before you start the machine, ensure that other service representatives and the  
customer's personnel are not in a hazardous position.  
Place removed covers and other parts in a safe place, away from all personnel,  
while you are servicing the machine.  
Keep your tool case away from walk areas so that other people will not trip over  
it.  
Do not wear loose clothing that can be trapped in the moving parts of a machine.  
Ensure that your sleeves are fastened or rolled up above your elbows. If your hair  
is long, fasten it.  
Insert the ends of your necktie or scarf inside clothing or fasten it with a  
nonconductive clip, approximately 8 centimeters (3 inches) from the end.  
Do not wear jewelry, chains, metal-frame eyeglasses, or metal fasteners for your  
clothing.  
Remember: Metal objects are good electrical conductors.  
Wear safety glasses when you are: hammering, drilling soldering, cutting wire,  
attaching springs, using solvents, or working in any other conditions that might  
be hazardous to your eyes.  
After service, reinstall all safety shields, guards, labels, and ground wires.  
Replace any safety device that is worn or defective.

Reinstall all covers correctly before returning the machine to the customer.  
Electrical safety  
CAUTION:  
Electrical current from power, telephone, and communication cables can be  
hazardous. To avoid personal injury or equipment damage, disconnect the attached  
power cords, telecommunication systems, networks, and modems before you open  
the server covers, unless instructed otherwise in the installation and configuration  
procedures.  
Observe the following rules when working on electrical equipment.  
Important: Use only approved tools and test equipment. Some hand tools have  
handles covered with a soft material that does not insulate you when  
working with live electrical currents.  
Many customers have, near their equipment, rubber floor mats that  
contain small conductive fibers to decrease electrostatic discharges. Do  
not use this type of mat to protect yourself from electrical shock.  
Find the room emergency power-off (EPO) switch, disconnecting switch, or  
electrical outlet. If an electrical accident occurs, you can then operate the switch  
or unplug the power cord quickly.  
Do not work alone under hazardous conditions or near equipment that has  
hazardous voltages.  
Disconnect all power before:  
— Performing a mechanical inspection  
— Working near power supplies  
— Removing or installing main units  
Before you start to work on the machine, unplug the power cord. If you cannot  
unplug it, ask the customer to power-off the wall box that supplies power to the  
machine and to lock the wall box in the off position.  
If you need to work on a machine that has exposed electrical circuits, observe the  
following precautions:  
— Ensure that another person, familiar with the power-off controls, is near you.  
Remember: Another person must be there to switch off the power, if  
necessary.  
— Use only one hand when working with powered-on electrical equipment;  
keep the other hand in your pocket or behind your back.  
Remember: There must be a complete circuit to cause electrical shock. By  
observing the above rule, you may prevent a current from passing through  
your body.  
— When using testers, set the controls correctly and use the approved probe  
leads and accessories for that tester.  
— Stand on suitable rubber mats (obtained locally, if necessary) to insulate you  
from grounds such as metal floor strips and machine frames.

Observe the special safety precautions when you work with very high voltages;  
these instructions are in the safety sections of maintenance information. Use  
extreme care when measuring high voltages.  
Regularly inspect and maintain your electrical hand tools for safe operational  
condition.  
Do not use worn or broken tools and testers.  
Never assume that power has been disconnected from a circuit. First, check that it  
has been powered-off.  
Always look carefully for possible hazards in your work area. Examples of these  
hazards are moist floors, nongrounded power extension cables, power surges,  
and missing safety grounds.  
Do not touch live electrical circuits with the reflective surface of a plastic dental  
mirror. The surface is conductive; such touching can cause personal injury and  
machine damage.  
Do not service the following parts with the power on when they are removed  
from their normal operating places in a machine:  
— Power supply units  
— Pumps  
— Blowers and fans  
— Motor generators  
and similar units. (This practice ensures correct grounding of the units.)  
If an electrical accident occurs:  
— Use caution; do not become a victim yourself.  
— Switch off power.  
— Send another person to get medical aid.  
Safety inspection guide  
The intent of this inspection guide is to assist you in identifying potentially unsafe  
conditions on these products. Each machine, as it was designed and built, had  
required safety items installed to protect users and service personnel from injury. This  
guide addresses only those items. However, good judgment should be used to  
identify potential safety hazards due to attachment of non-IBM features or options not  
covered by this inspection guide.  
If any unsafe conditions are present, you must determine how serious the apparent  
hazard could be and whether you can continue without first correcting the problem.  
Consider these conditions and the safety hazards they present:  
Electrical hazards, especially primary power (primary voltage on the frame can  
cause serious or fatal electrical shock).  
Explosive hazards, such as a damaged CRT face or bulging capacitor  
Mechanical hazards, such as loose or missing hardware  
The guide consists of a series of steps presented in a checklist. Begin the checks with  
the power off, and the power cord disconnected.  
Checklist:  
1. Check exterior covers for damage (loose, broken, or sharp edges).  
Related service information 135  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
 
2. Power-off the computer. Disconnect the power cord.  
3. Check the power cord for:  
a. A third-wire ground connector in good condition. Use a meter to measure  
third-wire ground continuity for 0.1 ohm or less between the external ground  
pin and frame ground.  
b. The power cord should be the appropriate type as specified in the parts  
listings.  
c. Insulation must not be frayed or worn.  
4. Remove the cover.  
5. Check for any obvious non-IBM alterations. Use good judgment as to the safety  
of any non-IBM alterations.  
6. Check inside the unit for any obvious unsafe conditions, such as metal filings,  
contamination, water or other liquids, or signs of fire or smoke damage.  
7. Check for worn, frayed, or pinched cables.  
8. Check that the power-supply cover fasteners (screws or rivets) have not been  
removed or tampered with.  
Handling electrostatic discharge-sensitive devices  
Any computer part containing transistors or integrated circuits (ICs) should be  
considered sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). ESD damage can occur when  
there is a difference in charge between objects. Protect against ESD damage by  
equalizing the charge so that the machine, the part, the work mat, and the person  
handling the part are all at the same charge.  
Notes:  
1. Use product-specific ESD procedures when they exceed the requirements noted  
here.  
2. Make sure that the ESD protective devices you use have been certified (ISO 9000)  
as fully effective.  
When handling ESD-sensitive parts:  
Keep the parts in protective packages until they are inserted into the product.  
Avoid contact with other people.  
Wear a grounded wrist strap against your skin to eliminate static on your body.  
Prevent the part from touching your clothing. Most clothing is insulative and  
retains a charge even when you are wearing a wrist strap.  
Use the black side of a grounded work mat to provide a static-free work surface.  
The mat is especially useful when handling ESD-sensitive devices.  
Select a grounding system, such as those listed below, to provide protection that  
meets the specific service requirement.  
Note: The use of a grounding system is desirable but not required to protect  
against ESD damage.  
— Attach the ESD ground clip to any frame ground, ground braid, or green-wire  
ground.  
— Use an ESD common ground or reference point when working on a double-  
insulated or battery-operated system. You can use coax or connector-outside  
shells on these systems.  
— Use the round ground-prong of the ac plug on ac-operated computers.

Grounding requirements  
Electrical grounding of the computer is required for operator safety and correct  
system function. Proper grounding of the electrical outlet can be verified by a  
certified electrician.

Problem determination tips  
Due to the variety of hardware and software combinations that can be encountered,  
use the following information to assist you in problem determination. If possible,  
have this information available when requesting assistance from Service Support and  
Engineering functions.  
Machine type and model  
Processor or hard disk upgrades  
Failure symptom  
— Do diagnostics fail?  
— What, when, where, single, or multiple systems?  
— Is the failure repeatable?  
Has this configuration ever worked?  
— If it has been working, what changes were made prior to it failing?  
— Is this the original reported failure?  
Reference/ Diagnostics version  
— Type and version level  
Hardware configuration  
— Print (print screen) configuration currently in use  
— BIOS level  
Operating system software  
— Type and version level  
Note: To eliminate confusion, identical systems are considered identical only if they:  
1. Are the exact machine type and models  
2. Have the same BIOS level  
3. Have the same adapters/ attachments in the same locations  
4. Have the same address jumpers/ terminators/ cabling  
5. Have the same software versions and levels  
6. Have the same Reference/ Diagnostics Diskette (version)  
7. Have the same configuration options set in the system  
8. Have the same setup for the operation system control files  
Comparing the configuration and software set-up between "working and non-  
working" systems will often lead to problem resolution.
