1 Overview  
The HP 9000 rp4410 and the HP 9000 rp4440 servers are designed to be easy to install, service, and  
maintain. They deliver performance, reliability, and availability in a compact, rack-dense design to meet the  
most demanding enterprise-level computing requirements.  
A rack-dense 4U form-factor maximizes the number of servers for each rack, up to 10 systems for each HP  
10000 G2 series rack (42U). They fit easily into the HP 10000 G2 series rack and into many third-party racks  
using side-mounted slides and a cable management arm that you can install quickly without tools.  
You can equip the servers with up to eight 800 MHz or 1.0 GHz PA-8900 processors with 1.5 MB of on-chip L1  
cache for each processor and 64 MB of shared L2 cache for each processor module, up to 128 GB RAM, and six  
PCI-X I/O expansion slots.  
The blue server identification LED can be activated locally or remotely for easy physical identification of  
problem hardware, and the QuickFind diagnostic LED panel speeds problem diagnosis by identifying  
defective or mismatched hardware components.  
HP 9000 rp4410 Server  
The HP 9000 rp4410 server is a PA-8900-based server in a 4U form factor. It is based on the same hardware  
as the HP 9000 rp4440 server, but in the rp4410 server, two of the four processor sockets are disabled using  
firmware, limiting it to a 2P/2C. Like the HP 9000 rp4440 server, the HP 9000 rp4410 server has full access to  
all 16 or 32 memory slots (for a total of up to 128 GB of memory) and full access to all six PCI-X I/O slots.  
Because it has a maximum of four processors, the HP 9000 rp4410 server qualifies for Oracle Standard  
Edition licensing. The HP 9000 rp4410 server is available in 1P/1C, 1P/2C, and 2P/2C configurations and can  
be easily upgraded to an HP 9000 rp4440 server using a firmware upgrade kit.

Overview  
Dimensions and Values  
The firmware incorporates the BCH which provides an interface between the operating system and the  
platform firmware. BCH uses data tables that contain platform-related information, and boot and run-time  
service calls available to the operating system and its loader to provide a standard environment for booting.  
The firmware supports the HP-UX 11i version 1 (or higher) operating system through the HP 9000 processor  
family standards and extensions, and has no operating system-specific functionality included. The operating  
system is presented with the same interface to system firmware, and all features are available to the  
operating system.  
Event IDs for Errors and Events  
The server firmware generates event IDs similar to chassis codes for errors, events, and forward progress to  
the Integrity Integrated Light-Out Management Processor (iLO MP) through common shared memory. The  
Integrity iLO MP interprets and stores event IDs. Reviewing these events helps you diagnose and  
troubleshoot problems with the server.

Typical  
a. Maximum power is the sum of the worst case power consumption values of every subsystem in the  
HP 9000 rp4410 or rp4440 server. Use these values to calculate the worst case power consumption  
for your facility installation.  
b. Typical power consumption values were measured while running power intensive applications.  
These values are generally lower than maximum power numbers because all the subsystems in the  
server rarely draw maximum power simultaneously and for long durations.  
Power and Cooling  
Table 2-6 lists power and cooling values associated with servers which contain the listed components. These  
power and cooling values are considered typical and not maximum for the configurations shown.

Environmental Specifications  
This section provides the temperature and humidity requirements, noise emission, and air flow specifications  
for the server.  
Operating Environment  
The system is designed to run continuously and meet reliability goals in an ambient temperature of 5°C to  
35°C (+40°F to +95°F) at sea level. The maximum allowable temperature is de-rated 1°C per 1,000 feet of  
elevation above 5,000 feet above sea level up to 30°C at 10,000 feet. For optimum reliability and performance,  
the recommended operating range is 20°C to 25°C and 40% – 55% relative humidity.  
Ambient intake air temperature is often different from ambient room temperature; you should measure the  
operating temperature and humidity directly in front of the cabinet cooling air intakes rather than just  
checking ambient room conditions.  
Environmental Temperature Sensor  
The server includes internal sensors that monitor input air temperature and server operating temperatures.  
The ambient air temperature is measured using a sensor placed on the system I/O board. Data from the  
sensor is used to control the fan speed and to initiate system overtemperature shutdown.  
Nonoperating Environment  
The system is designed to withstand ambient temperatures between –40°C to 70°C under nonoperating  
conditions.

System Specifications  
Environmental Specifications  
Cooling  
This section provides information on the cooling systems in the server.  
CPU and Memory Cooling  
The server incorporates front to back airflow across the processor and memory extender boards and through  
the HDD backplane. Two 127 mm dual fan assemblies, mounted vertically in the center of the chassis, pull air  
through the processor and memory section and push air through the PCI section.  
Each processor and memory dedicated dual fan assembly is controlled by smart fan control circuits embedded  
in the system I/O board. The smart fan control circuit receives fan control input from the system fan  
controller in the I/O board, and returns fan status information to the system fan controller. The smart fan  
circuit controls the power and the pulse-width-modulated control signal to the fan and monitors the speed  
indicator back from each of the fans. The fan status LED is driven by the smart fan circuit. The fan status  
LED is located on the diagnostic board inside the system.  
Bulk Power Supply Cooling  
Cooling for the bulk power supplies is provided by one 120 mm dual fan assembly and one externally mounted  
60 mm power supply fan. Air is pushed into both power supply bays by the 120 mm fan assembly and  
exhausted out the rear by the 60 mm fan (one per power supply).  
Air flows out of the rear of the chassis with minimal leakage into the cell airflow plenum.  
NOTE  
A power supply filler is required in the unused power supply slot to maintain proper airflow  
throughout the system.  
PCI and Mass Storage Section Cooling  
Two dual fan assemblies located at the center of the chassis provide airflow for all the PCI slots. Airflow is  
over the processor and memory extender boards and into the PCI section. The fans are controlled by the  
system temperature and run at the speed necessary to maintain proper internal temperature throughout the  
chassis.  
The air is pulled through openings in the front cover and the mass storage devices and pushed through the  
PCI card cage.  
Perforation is provided between and above the PCI card cage to enable proper exhaust ventilation to maintain  
the required temperature rating of the PCI cards.  
CAUTION  
For maximum cooling effects, ensure that the chassis ventilation holes are not blocked or  
covered after installation.

Installing the System  
Safety Information  
The firmware incorporates the Boot Console Handler (BCH), which provides an interface between the  
operating system and the platform firmware. BCH uses data tables that contain platform-related  
information, and boot and run-time service calls available to the operating system and its loader to provide a  
standard environment for booting.  
The firmware supports the HP-UX 11i version 1 (and higher HP-UX versions that support PA-RISC systems)  
operating system through the HP 9000 processor family standards and extensions, and has no operating  
system-specific functionality included. The operating system is presented with the same interface to system  
firmware, and all features are available to the operating system.  
Event IDs for Errors and Events  
The server firmware generates event IDs similar to chassis codes for errors, events, and forward progress to  
the Integrity Integrated Light-Out Management Processor (iLO MP) through common shared memory. The  
Integrity iLO MP interprets and stores event IDs. Reviewing these events helps you diagnose and  
troubleshoot problems with the server.

Installation Sequence and Checklist  
WARNING  
Ensure that the system is powered off and all power sources are disconnected from  
the server before removing or installing server hardware unless you are removing or  
installing a hot-swappable or hot-pluggable component.  
Voltages are present at various locations within the server whenever a dc power  
source is connected. This voltage is present even when the main power switch is  
turned off.  
Failure to observe this warning can result in personal injury or damage to  
equipment.  
Do not wear loose clothing that can snag or catch on the server or on other items.  
Do not wear clothing subject to static charge build up, such as wool or synthetic materials.  
If installing an internal assembly, wear an antistatic wrist strap and use a grounding mat, such as those  
included in the Electrically Conductive Field Service Grounding Kit (HP 9300-1609).  
Handle accessory boards and components by the edges only. Do not touch any metal-edge connectors or  
any electrical components on accessory boards.

Installing the System  
Unpacking and Inspecting the Server  
Unpacking and Inspecting the Server  
This section describes procedures you perform before installation. Ensure that you have adequately prepared  
your environment for the new server, received the components that you ordered, and verified that the server  
and its containers are in good condition after shipment.  
Verifying Site Preparation  
Verifying site preparation is essential for a successful server installation and includes the following tasks.  
Step 1. Gather LAN information and determine the two separate IP addresses for the Integrity iLO MP  
LAN and the system LAN.  
Step 2. Establish a method to connect to the server console.  
Step 3. Verify electrical requirements and ensure that grounding specifications and power requirements  
are met.  
Step 4. Validate server physical space requirements.  
Step 5. Confirm environmental requirements.  
Inspecting the Shipping Containers for Damage  
HP shipping containers protect their contents under normal shipping conditions. After the equipment arrives,  
carefully inspect each carton for signs of shipping damage. Shipping damage constitutes moderate to severe  
damage, such as punctures in the corrugated carton, crushed boxes, or large dents. Normal wear or slight  
damage to the carton is not considered shipping damage. If you find shipping damage to the carton, contact  
your HP customer service representative immediately.  
Unpacking the Server  
To unpack a nonracked server, follow these steps.  
NOTE  
HP recommends the use of a lifter, such as a RonI Company model 17000 SP 400 lifting device,  
when moving a nonracked system.  
Step 1. Use the instructions printed on the outside top flap of the carton; remove the banding and the outer  
carton from the server pallet.  
Step 2. Remove all inner accessory cartons and the top foam cushions, leaving only the server.  
IMPORTANT Inspect each carton for shipping damage as you unpack the server.  
Checking the Inventory  
The sales order packing slip lists all of the equipment shipped from HP. Use this packing slip to verify that all  
of the equipment has arrived.

representative initiates appropriate action through the transport carrier or the factory and assists you in  
returning the equipment.  
Unloading the Server with a Lifter  
WARNING  
Use caution when using a lifter. Because of the weight of the server, you must center  
the server on the lifter forks before lifting it off the pallet to avoid injury.  
To unload the server from the pallet using a lifter, follow these steps:  
Step 1. Unpack the server. See “Unpacking the Server” on page 62.  
Step 2. Unroll the bottom corrugated tray corresponding to the side on which the lifter will be placed, and  
slide the server as close to that edge of the pallet as possible.  
Step 3. Break off any foam packaging that can prevent the lifter from being fully inserted under the server.  
IMPORTANT Do not remove the foam packaging from the corners of the server. This foam is  
required to elevate the server and enable the forks of the lifter to be placed under the  
server.  
Step 4. Insert the lifter forks under the server.  
Step 5. Carefully roll the lifter forward until it is fully positioned against the side of the server.  
Step 6. Slowly raise the server off the pallet until it clears the pallet cushions.  
Step 7. Carefully roll the lifter and server away from the pallet. Do not raise the server any higher than  
necessary when moving it over to the rack.

Ensure that the system is powered off and all power sources have been disconnected  
from the server before attempting the following procedures.  
Failure to observe this warning can result in personal injury or damage to  
equipment.  
CAUTION  
CAUTION  
Ensure that processor speed and cache size are identical for all processors. Failure to observe  
this caution results in performance degradation or system failure.  
The easiest way to ensure compatibility is by using dual processor modules with identical part  
numbers.  
The processor extender board can be used in PA-RISC or Itanium processor based systems. A  
dipswitch is provided to configure processor extender board circuits. Ensure that the  
PA-RISC/Itanium dipswitch is set to PA-RISC for the HP 9000 rp4410 and rp4440 servers. If  
this switch is incorrectly set, the system does not enter into self test.  
Required Tools  
To install processors in the server, use the CPU Install Kit (HP part number 5069-5441). This kit consists of  
the following:  
Disposable ESD Kit (HP part number A3024-80004)  
CPU Install Tool (HP part number A7231-04046)  
Dual Processor Modules  
HP 9000 rp4410 and rp4440 servers use dual processor modules. Each module contains two processors. When  
only one processor is activated (a 1P/1C configuration of the HP 9000 rp4410 server), the second processor is  
installed but not enabled and is available for future use.  
The HP 9000 rp4410 server can contain one or two dual processor modules to provide 1P/1C, 1P/2C, or  
2P/2C configurations.  
The HP 9000 rp4440 server can contain one, two, three, or four dual processor modules to provide 1P/2C,  
2P/2C, 3P/2C, or 4P/2C configurations.  
If you are installing fewer than the maximum number of dual processor modules, the modules must be  
installed in the appropriate connectors. See Table 3-7.  
Processor Load Order  
You can install up to four dual processor modules on the processor extender board, which is located under the  
front cover in the top service bay, directly under the memory extender board. If you are installing fewer than  
the maximum number of dual processor modules (one in the rp4410 server or fewer than four in the rp4440  
server), they must be installed in the designated locations on the processor extender board.  
The connectors (slots or sockets) on the processor extender board are labeled CPU0 through CPU3. CPU0 and  
CPU1 connectors are located on the top of the processor extender board, and CPU2 and CPU3 connectors are  
located on the bottom.

Installing a Processor on the Extender Board  
CAUTION  
NOTE  
Observe all ESD safety precautions before attempting this procedure. Failure to follow ESD  
safety precautions can result in damage to the server.  
Before installing a processor into the server, read the following instructions carefully for a  
complete understanding of this process.  
To install a processor on the extender board, follow these steps:  
Step 1. Locate the socket (CPU1, CPU2, or CPU3) where you will install the dual processor module. (See  
Step 2. Ensure that the cam on the processor socket lock is in the unlocked, counterclockwise position.  
Step 3. Remove any protective packaging from the processor module.  
NOTE  
Protective covers can be installed to protect connector pins. These covers can be  
saved for future use.  
Step 4. Inspect the pins of the processor to be installed. Verify that the processor pins are not bent.

Step 5. Carefully lower the processor, without the sequencer frame, onto the processor socket. Align the  
pins on the bottom of the heatsink to the slots in the retention frame on the extender board.  
CAUTION  
TIP  
Do not press the processor modules into the socket. When properly assigned, the  
processor pins seat into the socket by themselves. You can damage the pins if you  
apply pressure.  
Test the alignment of the assembly to the socket by gently moving the assembly back  
and forth with the palm of your hand—you should feel little or no side play. However,  
because the assembly is not yet tightened, it can tilt slightly toward the center of the  
extender board; this is acceptable.  
CAUTION  
Before locking the processor assembly into its socket, ensure that the power cable is  
not pinched between the heatsink and sheet metal frame of the extender board. Also,  
ensure that the two power cable ends attached to the dual processor module do not  
come unplugged from their sockets when you move the cable into place under the

Step 6. Lock the assembly to the socket by rotating the cam on the socket 180 degrees clockwise using the  
CPU Install Tool or 2.5-mm Allen wrench.  
TIP  
When rotating the locking cam, hold the palm of your hand on top of the assembly  
and exert light pressure. This ensures that the assembly stays flush and level to the  
socket while it is being tightened.  
Step 7. Plug the processor cable into its socket on the extender board.  
Step 8. Place the sequencer frame over the processor.  
Step 9. Hand tighten the two knurled thumbscrews on the sequencer frame.  
NOTE  
Do not tighten the other four shoulder screws until you have first hand-tightened the  
two knurled thumbscrews.  
Step 10. Using a CPU Install Tool (Torx T15 driver), tighten the four remaining T15 shoulder screws until  
they bottom out. Follow the tightening sequence shown in Figure 3-27.  
IMPORTANT Do not overtighten the four shoulder screws. They can shear off if overtightened.  
Stop tightening the shoulder screws when you feel them bottom out.  
Step 11. Using the CPU Install Tool (Torx T15 driver), finish tightening the two thumbscrews.  
IMPORTANT Do not overtighten the two thumbscrews. They can shear off if overtightened.  
Tightening the thumbscrews by 1/4 turn tightens them sufficiently.

Use MAKODIAGprovided by the offline diagnostic environment to exercise the processor.  
Installing Memory  
The standard configuration of HP 9000 rp4410 and rp4440 servers include a 16-DIMM memory extender  
board. This extender board must contain a minimum of 1 GB of memory (four 256 MB DIMMs loaded in quad  
0 [connectors 0A, 0B, 0C, and 0D]). (Figure 3-28)  
An optional 32-DIMM memory extender board is available to replace the 16-DIMM memory extender board.  
This extender board must contain a minimum of 1 GB of memory (four 256 MB DIMMs loaded in quad 0  
[connectors 0A, 0B, 0C, and 0D]). (Figure 3-29)  
You can insert additional DIMMs into both 16- and 32-DIMM boards. When adding DIMMs, you must use a  
minimum of four like-sized DIMMs in the next available quad.  
Supported DIMM Sizes  
Up to 128 GB of memory can be installed in the server. Supported DIMM sizes are as follows:  
256 MB, 512 MB, 1 GB, 2 GB, 4 GB.  
Dissimilar DIMM sizes can be used across the extender board, but all four DIMMs in each quad must match.  
For cooling purposes, you must install DIMM fillers into unused connectors.  
DIMM Slot Fillers  
Both the 16- and 32-DIMM extender boards must have DIMM slot filler boards placed over all unfilled DIMM  
connectors. As you fill DIMM quads with additional memory, you must remove the DIMM slot fillers covering  
the connectors. All remaining DIMM fillers in unused connectors must remain in place to maximize internal  
cooling.  
NOTE  
94  
One DIMM filler board covers two adjacent DIMM connectors. Remove DIMM slot fillers as you  
add memory and you will always retain the correct configuration.

Hot-Pluggable PCI/PCI-X  
The HP 9000 rp4410 and rp4440 servers support PCI/PCI-X hot-pluggable technology and includes six  
hot-pluggable PCI/PCI-X slots.  
Hot-Pluggable PCI/PCI-X Operations  
PCI/PCI-X hot-pluggable technology enables the following operations. For procedures with step-by-step  
instructions describing how to add, replace, delete, and locate PCI/PCI-X cards, see “Hot-Plug Procedures” on  
Online Addition (OLA)  
You can install new PCI/PCI-X expansion cards in empty slots without powering off the server.  
Online Replacement (OLR)  
You can replace a previously occupied slot with a new PCI/PCI-X expansion card by suspending the driver.  
This operation combines removing an active card and replacing it with an equivalent card. The existing  
driver for the old card must be compatible with the new card.  
CAUTION  
A special OLR requirement for HP-UX 11i v1 (and higher) is that the card to be replaced  
must be exactly the same as the removed card. This is also called like-for-like replacement.  
PCI/PCI-X Slot Locate (Locate)  
To easily locate the PCI/PCI-X slot at which to perform a hot-pluggable operation, you can command the  
attention LEDs on the OLX divider and the I/O baseboard to blink and act as visual cues to the active slot  
location. This operation is always initiated through a software or web interface, and is optional to the  
operating system on the server.

The following describes configuration requirements for slots 1 through 8:  
PCI slots 1 and 2 are dedicated for use by the core I/O cards: SCSI HBA card in slot 1 and Gigabit  
Ethernet LAN card in slot 2. Slots 1 and 2 are not hot-pluggable. Additional PCI/PCI-X expansion  
cards must not be placed in slots 1 or 2.  
Slots 3 and 4 share a PCI bus, and slots 5 and 6 share a PCI bus. The maximum capability of each of the  
shared slots is PCI/PCI-X 66 MHz. If a PCI/PCI-X 133 MHz card is placed in a shared slot, the PCI/PCI-X  
133 MHz card runs at a maximum of 66 MHz. If different modes (PCI versus PCI-X) or slower speeds (33  
MHz) are used, the slot automatically downgrades to accept the change.

Installing the System  
Installing Additional Components  
Shared slots have card compatibility restrictions. If one of the shared slots is occupied, the card being  
added to the second slot is limited by the configuration of the occupied slot. If the new card has a slower  
capability than the current bus configuration, it cannot work. If the new card has a faster capability than  
the current bus configuration, it only runs at the bus mode and frequency of the current bus  
configuration.  
Slots 7 and 8 are single slots. The maximum capability of each slot is PCI/PCI-X 133 MHz. Only slots 7  
and 8 allow 133 MHz, PCI/PCI-X cards to run at full speed. These two slots are not limited by bus-mode,  
frequency-related incompatibilities.

Hot-Plug Procedures  
IMPORTANT Before adding or replacing a PCI/PCI-X card, determine whether that card is critical to the  
server, you can cause undesired system downtime.  
OLA  
Before installing a PCI/PCI-X card, ensure that the proper drivers for that PCI/PCI-X card are installed.  
NOTE  
If you are installing the Graphics Kit A6150B, use slots 3-8. However, DO NOT install the  
included USB card. The server currently supports USB and the ports are already located on the  
rear of the server.  
If you are installing the RAID card A7143A, you must install it into slot 8. If you install this  
card in any other slot, it interferes with the manual retention latch (MRL) on the OLX divider  
in the next slot. Because of this interference, you can install only two RAID cards in the server  
in slot 1 and slot 8.  
To add a PCI/PCI-X card into an empty slot, follow these steps:  
Step 1. If rack-mounted, slide the server out from the rack until it stops. (See “Extend the Server from the  
Step 2. Remove the top cover from the chassis. (See “Removing the Top Cover” on page 73.)  
Step 3. Choose an empty slot and pull up on the MRL located on the OLX divider approximately 75  
degrees. (Figure 3-33)  
CAUTION  
Do not pull up on the MRL of a powered on, occupied slot or the server will crash.

Troubleshooting PCI/PCI-X Hot-Pluggable Operations  
Sometimes a PCI/PCI-X card does not come online during a hot-pluggable operation due to a frequency  
mismatch between the PCI/PCI-X card and the slot bus or due to other hardware errors. To determine the  
type of error you are experiencing, observe the LED activity described as follows.  
1. PCI/PCI-X Bus Mode or Frequency Mismatch  
After you insert a PCI/PCI-X card into the slot and push the attention button, the power LED goes from  
blinking to steady off and stays at steady off. The system firmware has rejected the PCI/PCI-X card and  
indicates either bus-frequency or bus-mode mismatch.  
After pushing the attention button, wait for the full five second operation cancellation window before  
taking further action.  
2. Hardware Operation Fault  
If the PCI/PCI-X card cannot be powered on during a hot-pluggable addition operation, the attention LED  
turns steady on and the power LED goes steady off.  
3. Power draw is excessive  
If the power draw for a newly installed PCI/PCI-X card is excessive (when combined with that of the  
existing PCI/PCI-X expansion cards), the server powers off. If this occurs, check the power ratings of all  
installed PCI/PCI-X cards. A known cause of power loss is the use of more than three PCI/PCI-X RAID  
cards in the server.  
If the PCI/PCI-X card cannot be powered off during a hot-pluggable removal operation, the attention  
button turns steady on and the power LED remains steady on. A possible cause of this condition is that a  
user application or process is using the card you are trying to remove. Determine whether the card is in  
use by checking the operating system logs.  
4. Slot does not power off  
If the slot does not power off during a hot-plug removal operation, do not open the MRL on the OLX  
divider. This action causes system failure or operating system crashes.  
Converting SCSI From Simplex to Duplex  
This section explains how to convert the HP 9000 rp4410 or rp4440 server from simplex to duplex operation.  
The process involves removing a jumper, installing a duplex PCA card, and plugging in the stowed channel B  
cable to the appropriate sockets.  
A SCSI jumper cable bridges the two SCSI connectors on the SCSI backplane when the server is configured  
for simplex operation. This jumper must be removed in order to install the duplex board and to connect the  
SCSI B cable.  
Safety Information  
To ensure safe handling of components and to prevent harm to both you and the server, follow these steps:  
Use an antistatic wrist strap and a grounding mat, such as those included in the Electrically Conductive  
Field Service Grounding Kit (HP 9300-1155).  
Handle accessory boards and components by the edges only. Do not touch any metal-edge connectors or  
any electrical components on accessory boards.  
Do not wear clothing subject to static charge build-up, such as wool or synthetic materials.

Installing the Server Into a Rack, Non-HP rack, or Pedestal  
The following information describes how to install the server into an HP rack. Information is also provided on  
approved non-HP rack and pedestal mount alternatives.  
HP Rack  
HP 9000 entry class servers that are installed into racks are shipped with equipment mounting slides. The  
Mid-Weight Slide Kit, (HP part number 5065-7291) is provided with each set of slides. Follow the steps in the  
kit installation guide to determine where and how to place the server into the rack.  
The following are additional instructions for installing the server into the rack:  
Step 1. The cable management arm (CMA) is factory-configured to mount on the left side of the server (as  
viewed from the rear of the chassis). You must switch the CMA from a left- to a right-mount  
configuration. Mount the CMA on the right side of the server to ensure easy removal of the power  
supplies.  
Step 2. You must remove two T120 screws from the server bezel; one screw from the same location on each  
side of the server. The screws are located behind the pull handles.  
Non-HP Rack  
Use the Mounting in non-HP racks guide for evaluating the installation of HP equipment in non-HP racks.  
The guide provides information to help you determine if you need to qualify whether you can install,  
maintain, and service any HP equipment in a non-HP rack. The guide is located on the web at:  
http://www.hp.com/racksolutions  
Once there, select Mounting information from the menu and select the guide titled Mounting in non-HP  
racks.  
Pedestal Mount  
If you ordered the server as rackless, it has a pedestal pre-installed at the factory.  
If the server is a rack mount and you want to change it to a pedestal mount (rackless), you need an HP 9000  
rp4440 Server Rackless Mount Kit. This kit comes with an installation guide titled Converting Your Rack  
Server to a Rackless Mount (HP part number A6979-96001).  
To convert a rack-mount server to a pedestal-mount server, see Converting Your Rack Server to a Pedestal  
Server on the web at:

Preparation  
You must perform the following tasks before you can configure the iLO MP LAN.  
Determine the physical access method to select and connect cables.  
Determine the iLO MP LAN configuration method and assign an IP address if necessary.  
Determining the Physical iLO MP Access Method  
Before you can access the iLO MP, you must first determine the correct physical connection method. The iLO  
MP has a separate LAN port from the system LAN port. It requires a separate LAN drop, IP address, and  
networking information from that of the port used by the operating system.  
Table 3-14 lists the appropriate connection method, required connection components, and connectors to the  
host console. Use Table 3-14 to determine your physical connection method.

2. Console device (for example, a laptop or ASCII terminal)  
Determining the iLO MP LAN Configuration Method  
To access the iLO MP through the iLO MP LAN, the iLO MP must acquire an IP address. The way the iLO  
MP acquires an IP address depends on whether DHCP is enabled or disabled on the server, and if DHCP and  
DNS services are available to the server. (See Table 3-15 for possible scenarios.)  
Once you have determined the iLO MP access, you must determine how you will configure the iLO MP LAN  
to acquire an IP address using the following methods:  
DHCP/DNS through the management LAN: use the DNS name on the toe-tag on the server  
Setting up a static IP number using a laptop with DHCP services and the management LAN  
ARP Ping to set a static IP using a laptop and the management LAN  
Local RS-232 serial port and a serial console  
Remote/modem port  
Table 3-15 provides all the possible scenarios. Use this table to help you select the appropriate LAN  
configuration method to obtain an IP address.

Once you have determined how you will configure the iLO MP LAN in order to acquire an IP address, you  
must configure the iLO MP LAN using the selected method.  
Configuring the iLO MP LAN Using DHCP and DNS  
DHCP automatically configures all DHCP-enabled servers with IP addresses, subnet masks, and gateway  
addresses. All HP 9000 entry class servers with iLO MP are shipped from the factory with DHCP enabled.  
TIP  
HP recommends using the DHCP and DNS method to simplify access to the iLO MP.  
When you use DHCP and DNS, you can connect to the iLO MP by typing the DNS name in the browser rather  
than an IP address only if the following conditions apply:  
DHCP must be enabled (DHCP is enabled by default).  
You are using a DHCP server that provides the domain name and the primary DNS server IP address.  
The primary DNS server accepts dynamic DNS (DDNS) updates.  
The primary DNS server IP address has been configured through the DHCP server.  
To configure the iLO MP using DHCP and DNS, follow these steps:  
Step 1. Obtain the factory-set DNS name from the toe-tag on the server. The DNS name is 14 characters  
long, consisting of the letters mp followed by the 12 characters of the MAC address, for example:  
mp0014c29c064f. This address is assigned to the iLO MP hardware. The iLO MP has a unique  
MAC address that identifies the hardware on the network.  
Step 2. Connect the LAN cable from the server to an active network port.  
Step 3. Apply ac power to the server (if not already done).  
Step 4. Open a browser, telnet, or SSH client and enter the DNS name. The Integrity iLO MP Log In window  
opens.  
Configuring the iLO MP LAN Using ARP Ping  
The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) and Packet Internet Grouper (Ping) utility uses ARP packets to ping,  
or discover, a device on the local network segment. The IP address you assign to the server must use the same  
network segment, or subnet, as the computer assigning the address. ARP does not work across routed or  
switched networks.

Installing the System  
Console Setup  
ARP Ping operational issues include the following:  
You can use ARP Ping regardless of the status of DHCP, unless an IP address has ever been acquired  
using DHCP.  
When ARP Ping is successful, DHCP status is disabled.  
Some DHCP server options can cause the apparent issuance of ARP Ping to the iLO MP which will negate  
the DHCP/DDNS method.  
The PC and the server must be on the same physical subnet.  
When a new server is first booted, DHCP is automatically available (factory-set default); but ARP Ping  
does not start until three minutes after the iLO MP is booted. This applies to every subsequent boot of the  
iLO MP until an IP address is obtained by DHCP or has been assigned using the LCcommand, or ARP  
Ping succeeds.  
There are two ways to use the ARP Ping utility:  
Connect a PC to the network that is on the same physical subnet as the server and run the ARP Ping  
commands from the PC.  
Locate an existing server on the network, log into it, and run the ARP Ping commands from the server.  
Table 3-16 lists the ARP Ping commands.  
Table 3-16 ARP Ping Commands  
Command  
Description  
arp -s  
ping  
This command assigns an IP address to the iLO MP MAC address. This ARP table  
entry maps the MAC address of the iLO MP LAN interface to the static IP address  
designated for that interface.  
This command tests network connections. It verifies that the iLO MP LAN port is  
configured with the appropriate IP address.  
The following procedure explains how to use the ARP Ping utility using a PC that is connected to the network  
that is on the same physical subnet as the server.  
To configure a static IP address using the ARP Ping utility, follow these steps:  
Step 1. Obtain the iLO MP MAC address. To set the IP address using ARP, you must know the MAC  
address of the iLO MP LAN. You can find the MAC address of the iLO MP LAN on a label on the  
server.  
IMPORTANT Make sure you obtain the MAC address to the iLO MP LAN and not the MAC  
address to the server core LAN.  
Step 2. Verify that an active LAN cable on the local subnet is connected to the iLO MP LAN port on the  
server.  
Step 3. Access a PC on the same physical subnet as the server.  
Step 4. Open a DOS window on the PC.  
Step 5. At the DOS prompt, enter arp -s to assign the IP address to the DNS name.  
arp -s <IP address you assign to the iLO MAC address> <iLO MAC address>

Installing the System  
Console Setup  
For example:  
arp -s 192.0.2.1 00-00-0c-07-ac-00  
Step 6. At the DOS prompt, enter ping followed by the IP address to verify that the iLO MP LAN port is  
configured with the appropriate IP address. The destination address is the IP address that is  
mapped to the iLO MAC address. Perform this task from the PC that has the ARP table entry.  
ping<IP address you assigned to the iLO MAC address>  
For example:  
ping 192.0.2.1  
Step 7. Connect to the iLO MP LAN using this IP address.  
Step 8. Use web or telnet access to connect to the iLO MP from a host on the local subnet and finish setting  
up the LAN parameters (gateway and subnet).  
Configuring the iLO MP LAN Using the RS-232 Serial Port  
The following procedure shows how to configure the iLO MP LAN using the RS-232 serial port.  
IMPORTANT Do not configure duplicate IP addresses on different servers within the same network.  
Duplicate server IP addresses conflict and the servers cannot connect to the network.  
The LC command enables you to configure an IP address, DNS name, subnet mask, and gateway address.  
IMPORTANT Ensure you have a console connection through the RS-232 serial port or a network connection  
through the LAN to access the iLO MP and use the LCcommand.  
To assign a static IP address using the LCcommand, follow these steps:  
Step 1. Ensure the emulation software device is properly configured. The terminal emulation device runs  
software that interfaces with the server. The software emulates console output as it would appear  
on an ASCII terminal screen and displays it on a console device screen.  
Step 2. To ensure the emulation software is correctly configured, verify the following:  
a. Verify that the communication settings are configured as follows:  
8/none (parity)  
9600 baud  
None (receive)  
None (transmit)  
b. Verify that the terminal type is configured appropriately. Supported terminal types are as  
follows:  
hpterm  
vt100  
vt100+  
vt-utf8

IMPORTANT Do not use hpterm and vt100 terminal types at the same time.  
There are many different emulation software applications. Consult the help section of your  
emulation software application for instructions on how to configure the software options.  
Step 3. Use Table 3-14 to determine the required connection components and the ports used to connect the  
server to the console device.  
Step 4. Connect the cables.  
a. Connect the DB-9 end of the RS-232 serial port female-to-female cable to the console RS-232  
serial port.  
b. Connect the other end of the DB-9 female-to-female cable to the console device.  
Step 5. Start the emulation software on the console device.  
Step 6. Log in to the iLO MP. See “Logging In to the iLO MP” on page 125.  
Step 7. At the MP Main Menu, enter CM and press Enter to select command mode.  
Step 8. At the command mode prompt, enter LS and press Enter. The screen displays the default LAN  
configuration values. Write down the default values or log the information to a file for future  
troubleshooting.  
Step 9. Use the LCcommand to disable DHCP.  
a. From the LCcommand menu, type D and press Enter.  
b. Follow the instructions on the screen to change the DHCP status from Enabled to Disabled.  
c. Enter XD -R to reset the iLO MP.  
Step 10. Use the LCcommand to enter information for the IP address, host, subnet mask, gateway  
parameters, and so on.  
Step 11. Enter XD -R to reset the iLO MP.  
Step 12. After the iLO MP resets, log in to the iLO MP again and enter CM at the MP> prompt.  
Step 13. Enter LS to confirm that DHCP is disabled and display a list of updated LAN configuration  
settings.  
Logging In to the iLO MP  
To log in to the iLO MP, follow these steps:  
Step 1. Access the iLO MP using the LAN, RS-232 serial port, telnet, SSH, or web method. The iLO MP  
login prompt displays.  
Step 2. Log in using the default the iLO MP user name and password (Admin/Admin). The MP Main Menu

Setting Up Security  
For greater security and reliability, HP recommends that iLO MP management traffic be on a separate  
dedicated management network and that only administrators be granted access to that network. This not  
only improves performance by reducing traffic load across the main network, it also acts as the first line of  
defense against security attacks. A separate network enables administrators to physically control which  
workstations are connected to the network.  
HP strongly recommends that you modify the default settings during the initial login session and determine  
the security access required and what user accounts and privileges are needed. Create local accounts or use  
directory services to control user access. See “Modifying User Accounts and Default Password” on page 126.  
Security Access Settings  
CAUTION  
When DHCP is enabled, the system is vulnerable to security risks because anyone can access  
the iLO MP until you change the default user name and password.  
HP strongly recommends you assign user groups and rights before proceeding.  
Determine the security access required and user accounts and privileges needed. The iLO MP provides  
options to control user access. Select one of the following options to prevent unauthorized access to the iLO  
MP:  
Change the default user name and password. See “Modifying User Accounts and Default Password” on  
Create local accounts. You can store up to 19 user names and passwords to manage iLO MP access. This is  
ideal for small environments such as labs and small-to-medium sized businesses.  
Use directory services. Use the corporate directory to manage iLO MP user access. This is ideal for  
environments with a large number of frequently changing users. If you plan to use directory services, HP  
recommends leaving at least one local account enabled as an alternate method of access.  
Accessing the Host Console  
This section describes the different ways to access the host console of the server.  
Accessing the Host Console With the TUI - CO Command  
This section describes the steps to access the host console using the text user interface (TUI).  
To access the host console through the iLO MP, follow these steps:  
Step 1. Log in using your user account name and password at the login page.  
Step 2. At the iLO MP login prompt (MP>), enter the COcommand to switch the console terminal from the  
MP Main Menu to mirrored/redirected console mode. All mirrored data is displayed.  
Step 3. To return to the iLO MP command interface, type Ctrl-B or Esc and + and press Enter.  
Interacting with the iLO MP Using the Web GUI

Troubleshooting  
This section provides basic server troubleshooting information. It is designed to help you diagnose common  
issues that can occur during server installation.  
Troubleshooting Methodology  
The server was tested prior to shipping. Failures encountered during installation can be due to damage that  
occurred in transit. Reseating connectors can clear problems that result from rough handling. If you are  
installing components or assemblies, compatibility problems or incorrect installations can be the cause of the  
problems. If you are installing components or assemblies, check that items are correctly installed and that all  
connectors are fully engaged. If the unit does not power on, check the power source before proceeding.  
If a problem is encountered during initial operation, remove any add-in or optional components and retest the  
server before continuing. Verify basic server operation before installing additional cards and configuring  
software and hardware for the server requirements.  
Troubleshooting is based on observation of server status indications and error messages, and by checking  
system event logs. You can observe the LED indicators on the front and rear of the server. Error messages are  
displayed on local and remote consoles. System history (console, event, and history logs) is available through  
the iLO MP, and is accessed through the console.  
Offline troubleshooting programs are available on the resource CD that is shipped with the server. To  
troubleshoot the server, you must be familiar with the Offline Diagnostics Environment (ODE) which runs in  
the Boot Console Handler (BCH). Descriptions and user information about offline troubleshooting tools are  
available on the web at:  
http://www.docs.hp.com.  
The offline tools are available for downloading at:  
http://www.software.hp.com.  
Troubleshooting Using the Server Power Button  
The server power button on the front panel operates differently depending on how long the button is held in,  
and on what the system is doing when the button is pressed. You must be aware of its uses to properly  
troubleshoot the system.

Before you contact HP support, you should:  
Step 1. Check information on troubleshooting and attempt to solve the problem.  
Note failure symptoms and error indications (LEDs and messages) by checking the system  
event log.  
Try to determine precisely what did or did not happen.  
Step 2. Collect the following information:  
The model number of your server (for example, HP 9000 rp4440)  
The product number of your server. This is found on the identification label, which is found at  
the front of the unit (typically A9956A, A9951A, and so on).  
The serial number of your server. This is found on the identification label.  
Step 3. Become familiar with your system configuration:  
Are you using the LAN, RS232, or web interface to monitor the server?  
How many processors, DIMMs, and PCI cards have been installed?  
What versions of processor, memory, and PCI cards are used and where are they installed?  
What accessories are installed?  
Step 4. Determine the following:  
Which firmware versions are in use?  
When did the problem start?  
Have recent changes been made to the system?  
Which operating system and version is in use?

Booting and Shutting Down HP-UX  
Booting and Shutting Down HP-UX  
This section describes booting and shutting down HP-UX on the HP 9000 rp4410 and rp4440 servers.  
To boot HP-UX, follow one of these procedures:  
boot HP-UX. Typically this results in booting HP-UX in multi-user mode.  
“Booting HP-UX in Single-User Mode” on page 147 describes how to boot HP-UX in single-user mode.  
“Booting HP-UX in LVM Maintenance Mode” on page 147 describes how to boot HP-UX in Logical  
Volume Management (LVM) maintenance mode.  
To shut down the HP-UX operating system, see “Shutting Down HP-UX” on page 147.  
Standard HP-UX Booting Using Boot Console Handler  
To the autoboot function is enabled, the server boots to the installed operating system. If autoboot is not  
enabled, the server enters the boot console handler (BCH). The BCH enables you to control the server’s  
booting environment.  
To set the boot path if HP-UX is at a path other than the primary path, follow these steps:  
To boot HP-UX, follow these steps:  
Step 1. At the BCH Main Menu, enter Menu> co.  
Step 2. From the COnfiguration Menu > prompt, enter pa pri xx/xx/xx.  
Step 3. From the COnfiguration Menu> prompt, enter ma.  
To boot HP-UX once you have set the primary path, follow these steps:  
Step 1. At the BCH Main Menu, enter Menu> bo pri. The following prompt displays:  
Do you wish to stop at the ISL prompt prior to booting (y/n)?  
Step 2. Enter n.  
NOTE  
If the server fails to boot, you may be required to boot from a DVD that contains the operating  
system and other necessary software.

Shutting Down HP-UX  
To shut down HP-UX running on a system, use the shutdowncommand. You have the following options when  
shutting down HP-UX:  
To shut down and reboot an HP-UX system, use the shutdown -r command.  
To shut down and halt (power off) an HP-UX system, use the shutdown -h command.  
For details, see the shutdown (1M) manpage and follow these steps:  
Step 1. From the HP-UX command line, issue the shutdown command to shut down the HP-UX operating  
system.  
Step 2. Log in to HP-UX running on the system that you want to shut down.  
You should log in to the iLO MP for the server and use the Console menu to access the system  
console. Accessing the console through the iLO MP enables you to maintain console access to the  
server after HP-UX has shut down.  
Step 3. Issue the shutdown command with the appropriate command-line options.  
The command-line options you specify dictate the way in which HP-UX shuts down, and whether  
the server is rebooted.  
Use the following list to choose an HP-UX shutdown option for the server:  
To shut down HP-UX and halt (power off) the server, issue the shutdown -h command.  
To reboot a halted server you must power on the server using the PCcommand at the iLO MP  
Command menu.  
To shut down HP-UX and reboot the server, issue the shutdown -r command.

5 Troubleshooting  
This chapter provides a preferred methodology (strategies and procedures) and tools for troubleshooting  
server error and fault conditions.  
This chapter addresses the following topics:  
Troubleshooting Methodology  
WARNING  
Ensure that the system is powered off and all power sources have been disconnected  
from the server before working within the server.  
Voltages are present at various locations within the server whenever an ac power  
source is connected. This voltage is present even when the main power switch is in  
the off position.  
Failure to observe this warning can result in personal injury or damage to  
equipment.  
CAUTION  
Do not operate the server for more than 10 minutes with any cover (including power supplies  
and disk drives) removed. If you are hot-swapping a fan, reinstall the cover within 10 minutes  
to prevent overheating. Otherwise, damage to system components can result due to improper  
airflow cooling.  
To troubleshoot the server with online diagnostic tools, you must be familiar with the HP-UX operating  
system. You should also be familiar with the Offline Diagnostics Environment (ODE). Install both online and  
offline troubleshooting programs on your system before trouble is suspected. Descriptions and user  
information about offline troubleshooting tools are available on the web at:  
Use the online diagnostic tools if you can boot your system. Online troubleshooting programs area available  
on the HP-UX operating system CD.  
If you cannot boot your system, run the offline troubleshooting tool from the ODE CD that ships with your  
server. ODE CDs are platform-specific for PA-RISC servers.

Troubleshooting  
Troubleshooting System Power  
The cause of this problem is not apparent from the iLO MP’s SEL or the FPL logs. If both these conditions  
Consider the following assumptions before troubleshooting system power:  
The problem is a solid failure event (it happens every time you attempt to power on the system or initiate  
POST).  
There is a functioning console terminal (or a PC with appropriate terminal emulation) available and  
attached to the iLO MP console port.  
To perform the power-on troubleshooting procedure, follow these steps:  
Step 1. If this is the first time the system has been powered on, check the incoming ac line voltage. Ensure  
that you have 200 to 240 VAC power applied to the power supplies. The rp4410 and rp4440 servers  
require 200 VAC nominal (for example, they will not operate on 100/120 VAC). Typical iLO MP SEL  
entries when attempting to run on 100/120 VAC are as follows:  
Alert Level 7: Fatal  
Event Log Viewer Menu:  
Keyword: Type-02 096f02 618242  
A/C Failed, disconnected, or out of range

Sensor: Power Unit -AC Presence  
Data1: 240VA Power Down  
0x20430F39B1020040 FFFF026FCF090300  
Step 2. Check the front panel power LED visible through the hole in the flap covering the power button.  
If it is flashing amber, housekeeping voltages are available. Go to step 3.  
If it is not illuminated or flashing, housekeeping voltages are not available. Check the LEDs on  
the power supplies. The power supplies have three LED indicators: a Predict Fail amber LED to  
the left, a Failed amber LED in the center (a triangle with an exclamation point), and a green  
Power LED to the right. If the Failed LED is illuminated, you must replace the power supply. If  
the green Power LED is illuminated or flashing, the supply is OK and has ac voltage applied.  
Step 3. Verify whether the iLO MP is functional.  
The iLO MP is typically accessed through a terminal attached to the iLO MP LAN port on the rear  
bulkhead using a Ctrl-B CRkey sequence. If the iLO MP is functional, check the status of the dc  
power system using the CM> PCcommand or the CM> PScommand. If the PCor PScommand output  
shows the current system power state to be off, try to turn the dc power ON using the PCcommand.  
If the system does not turn the dc power on, or if it does not remain on, check the SEL for errors as  
described below. Alternatively, you can press the power button (located behind the front bezel flap)  
to attempt to enable the dc voltages.  
Step 4. If a terminal attached to the iLO MP LAN port does not respond to a Ctrl-B CR key sequence (and  
the terminal is running at 9600 baud, 8 data bits, No Parity, 1 Stop Bit, Xon/Xoff, and is online), the  
iLO MP might be hung or nonfunctional. Check the following LEDs located inside the system:  
The iLO MP heartbeat LED.  
This green LED is located between the 3.3 and 5 volt VRMs on the I/O baseboard assembly and

Troubleshooting System Power  
is visible from rear of the system by looking through the holes in the sheet metal directly above  
the iLO MP LAN connector. The iLO MP heartbeat LED is on the left, closest to the power  
supplies. This LED flashes at 1 Hz whenever housekeeping voltages are available and the iLO  
MP circuitry is functional. If it is not flashing (or is solid green), the iLO MP circuitry might be  
nonfunctional or is not receiving housekeeping voltages.  
The BMC heartbeat LED.  
This LED is located immediately to the right (from rear view) of the iLO MP heartbeat LED. It  
flashes green at 1 Hz whenever ac power is applied to the system, minimum housekeeping  
voltages are available, and the BMC circuitry is functional. If it is not flashing, the BMC  
circuitry might be nonfunctional or the internal housekeeping voltages are missing.  
If the iLO MP heartbeat LED is not flashing but the BMC heartbeat is flashing, replace the I/O  
baseboard:  
If the BMC heartbeat LED is not flashing but the iLO MP heartbeat is flashing:  
— Replace the I/O baseboard.  
— Replace the midplane board.  
If neither heartbeat LED is flashing, internal dc housekeeping voltages might be missing.  
Housekeeping voltages (12_STBY) are generated by the power supplies and passed through the  
dc power distribution board, attached ribbon cable, and midplane board to the I/O baseboard.  
— Replace the dc power distribution board.  
— Replace the midplane board.  
— Replace the flat gray cable between the dc power distribution and midplane.  
— Replace the I/O baseboard.  
If the iLO MP LAN terminal port responds to a Ctrl-B prompt, first examine the iLO MP System Logs (SL)  
and look at the SEL for any recent alerts that have an alert level of 3 or greater before replacing any  
hardware.  
To look at the SEL, follow these steps:  
Step 1. Select TEXTmode and set the alert level to 3.  
Step 2. If there are many entries in the SEL logs and you are not sure which ones are associated with the  
current problem, clear the iLO MP logs.  
TIP  
Store the entries somewhere else first and recreate the failure.  
Step 3. Look at the SEL logs again.  
Step 4. If the SEL logs do not assist in determining the root cause of the problem, go on to “System  
System Build-Up Troubleshooting  
To perform the system build-up troubleshooting procedure, follow these steps:  
Step 1. Remove all the ac power cords from the power supplies.

If you do not see all of the CRU IDs, concentrate on the missing CRU IDs.  
NOTE  
A defective midplane board can cause power on or dc voltage problems. If you do not  
get the above alert level 5 event, but get another high level alert, replace the  
midplane board.  
If you do show the above CRU ID entries and get the alert level 5 Missing CRU device - Mem  
Extender event, add the memory extender board with at least one quad of DIMMs.  
Step 3. Observe the amber power LED flashing and the red fault system LED flashing.  
The output of the DFcommand for a system with two quads of DIMMS installed is as follows:

If all of the CRU IDs do not appear, note the missing CRU ID. If CRU ID entries and the Alert Level  
5 Missing CRU device - CPU 0 PIROM appear, go to the next step.  
Step 4. Insert the processor extender board.  
NOTE  
For this example, the processors were not removed from the processor extender board  
first. Also, this example shows the expected results for an rp4440 system with two  
processor modules installed. HP recommends having at least one processor module  
installed (Module 0), or slightly different Alert Messages can appear.  
The system fans come on and stay on when you add the processor extender board and processors.

0000-Motherboard  
0152-DIMM0D  
0176-DIMM1C  
Step 5. If all the installed hardware is functional, the system initiates POST. Go immediately into the SEL  
Live Logs or the VFP to ensure that POST is initiated and proceeds without error to BCH. For the  
rp4440 server, you do not normally see any POST forward progress messages on the console unless  
you are in SL live mode.  
Step 6. If POST does not start after five to ten seconds, suspect a problem with the processor extender  
board or the processors mounted on it. Typical symptoms of this problem are an FRB2 hang alert  
appearing in the SEL. Perform the following steps:  
a. Reduce the processors to one module in position 0 and retest.  
b. Replace the CPU module or swap the CPU module with one previously removed and try  
replacing the processor extender board.  
NOTE  
A switch on the processor extender board determines whether it runs Itanium or  
PA-RISC code. Be sure to check this switch position if you get an FRB2 hang and  
have previously replaced the processor extender board as part of the  
troubleshooting procedure.  
For the rp4440 server, this switch (switch block S5103 lowest-most switch block  
when viewed with extractor handles toward you) must be set to the right  
(PA-RISC).  
This switch position setting is normally physically stamped on the sheet metal  
cover for convenience.

Troubleshooting Using Offline Support Tools  
Use the ODE CD to troubleshoot your HP 9000 rp4410 or rp4440 server by accessing the offline diagnostic  
environment (ODE).  
ODE  
Use the ODE to evaluate specific hardware components using a command line interface. To access ODE from  
your ODE CD, follow these steps:  
Step 1. Power on the server and insert the ODE CD.  
Step 2. Boot the system to the PDC prompt (BOOTADMIN, BCH, and so on). PDC prompts can differ on  
some computer models. For example:  
Main Menu: Enter command or menu>  
Step 3. List the bootable devices by entering search: search  
Step 4. Select the CD device that contains the ODE CD. For example:  
p3  
Step 5. Boot from that device by entering boot p3:  
boot p3  
Step 6. You are asked to interact with the Initial System Loader (ISL) prompt. Enter yes:  
y
Step 7. From the ISL prompt, start the Offline Diagnostics Environment by entering ODE:

Troubleshooting PCI/PCI-X Hot-Pluggable Operations  
Sometimes a PCI/PCI-X card does not come online during hot-plugging due to a frequency mismatch between  
the PCI/PCI-X card and the slot bus, or due to other hardware errors. To determine the type of error you are  
experiencing, interpret the LED display described as follows.  
Figure 5-1 shows the PCI/PCI-X LEDs.

PCI/PCI-X Bus Mode or Frequency Mismatch  
After you insert a PCI/PCI-X card into the slot and push the attention button, the power LED goes from  
blinking to steady off and stays at steady off. This means that the system firmware has rejected the  
PCI/PCI-X card and indicates either bus-frequency or bus-mode mismatch.

Troubleshooting  
Troubleshooting Using LED Indicators  
NOTE  
After pushing the attention button, ensure that you wait the full five second operation  
cancellation window before taking further action.  
Hardware Operation Fault  
A hardware operation fault is usually caused by an incorrectly seated or defective PCI/PCI-X card. If this  
occurs, the attention LED turns steady on and the power LED turns steady off.  
CAUTION  
If the power draw for the newly installed PCI/PCI-X card is excessive when combined with that  
of the existing PCI/PCI-X expansion cards, the server powers off. If this occurs, check the power  
ratings of all installed PCI/PCI-X cards. A known cause of power loss is the use of more than  
three PCI/PCI-X RAID cards in the system.  
If the PCI/PCI-X card cannot be powered off during a hot-pluggable removal operation, the attention button  
turns steady on and the power LED remains steady-on. A possible cause of this condition is that a user  
application or process is using the card you are trying to remove. You can determine if the card is in use by  
checking the operating system logs.  
CAUTION  
If your slot does not power off during a hot-pluggable removal operation, do not open the  
manual retention latch (MRL) on the OLX divider. This action causes system failure or  
operating system crashes.  
Troubleshooting Using LED Indicators  
The HP 9000 rp4410 and rp4440 servers have LED indicators located on the front control panel and an  
internal QuickFind diagnostic panel that you can use to determine what repair action is required.  
Front Control Panel LEDs  
The front control panel LEDs display the system status at a glance. If warning or attention LEDs are  
flashing, query the QuickFind diagnostic panel or iLO MP for further information.

Core I/O Connections  
Core I/O Connections  
The HP 9000 rp4410 and rp4440 servers include the following core I/O connections:  
Two USB ports  
One iLO MP  
— One 10/100 LAN-RJ45  
— Three serial ports  
SCSI HBA  
— The SCSI HBA board is used to attach SCSI external mass storage to the system.  
— Connections to the SCSI board include the external SCSI channels for external mass storage devices.  
CAUTION  
Some restrictions apply to external mass storage devices that you can connect to Channel B  
of the core I/O SCSI HBA. External connections to Channel B of the SCSI HBA controller  
are only supported in simplex configuration, when the internal cable between the SCSI  
backplane and the SCSI HBA card is disconnected. If the server is converted to the duplex  
configuration, you cannot connect external SCSI devices to Channel B of the SCSI HBA.  
LAN Connection  
— The LAN board provides the basic external I/O connectivity for the system.  
— Connections to the LAN card include one or two 10/100/1000 Base-T LAN RJ45 connectors.  
— New cards might be available for use in the server. See the available cards on the web at:

Replacing Dual Processor Modules  
Replacing Dual Processor Modules  
Dual processor modules are located on the top and bottom surfaces of the processor extender board.  
WARNING  
Ensure that the system is powered off and all power sources have been disconnected  
from the server before removing or replacing a processor.  
Voltages are present at various locations within the server whenever an ac power  
source is connected. This voltage is present even when the main power switch is in  
the off position.  
Failure to observe this warning can result in personal injury or damage to  
equipment.  
CAUTION  
Ensure that processor speed and cache size are identical for all processors. Failure to observe  
this caution results in performance degradation or system failure.  
The easiest way to ensure compatibility is to use dual processor modules with identical part  
numbers.  
Dual Processor Modules  
HP 9000 rp4410 and rp4440 servers use dual processor modules. That is, each module contains two  
processors. When only one processor is activated (a 1P/1C configuration of the HP 9000 rp4410 server), the  
second processor is installed but not enabled and is available for future use.  
The HP 9000 rp4410 server may contain one or two dual processor modules to provide 1/1C, 1P/2C, or  
2P/2C configurations.  
The HP 9000 rp4440 server can contain one, two, three, or four dual processor modules to provide 1P/2C,  
2P/2C, 3P/2C, or 4P/2C configurations.  
If fewer than the maximum number of dual processor modules are to be installed, the modules must be  
installed in the appropriate connectors (see Table 6-3).  
Processor Load Order  
You can install up to four dual processor modules on the processor extender board, which is located under the

Step 6. Carefully lower the processor, without the sequencer frame, onto the processor socket. Align the  
pins on the bottom of the heatsink to the slots in the retention frame on the extender board.  
CAUTION  
TIP  
Do not press the processor modules into the socket. When properly assigned, the  
processor pins seat into the socket by themselves. You can damage the pins if you  
apply pressure.  
Test the alignment of the assembly to the socket by gently moving the assembly back  
and forth with the palm of your hand—feel little or no side play. However, because  
the assembly is not yet tightened, it can tilt slightly toward the center of the  
extender board—this is acceptable.  
CAUTION  
Before locking the processor assembly into its socket, ensure that the power cable is  
not pinched between the heatsink and sheet metal frame of the extender board. Also,  
ensure that the two power cable ends attached to the dual processor module do not  
come unplugged from their sockets when you move the cable into place under the  
heatsink (Figure 6-16 and Figure 6-17).  
Figure 6-16 shows the processor cable placed correctly under the heatsink.

PCI-X slots 1 and 2 are dedicated for use by the core I/O cards: SCSI HBA card in slot 1 and Gigabit  
Ethernet LAN card in slot 2. Slots 1 and 2 are not hot-pluggable. Additional PCI/PCI-X expansion  
cards cannot be placed in slots 1 or 2.  
Slots 3 and 4 share a PCI-X bus, and slots 5 and 6 share a PCI-X bus. The maximum capability of each of  
the shared slots is PCI/PCI-X 66 MHz. If a PCI/PCI-X 133 MHz card is placed in a shared slot, the  
PCI/PCI-X 133 MHz card will runs at a maximum of 66 MHz. If different modes (PCI versus PCI-X) or  
slower speeds (33 MHz) are used, then the slot automatically downgrades to accept the change.

Removing and Replacing PCI/PCI-X Cards  
Shared slots have card compatibility restrictions. If one of the shared slots is occupied then the card being  
added to the second slot is limited by the configuration of the occupied slot. If the new card has a slower  
capability than the current bus configuration, it cannot work. If the new card has a faster capability than  
the current bus configuration, it will only run at the bus mode and frequency of the current bus  
configuration.  
Slots 7 and 8 are single slots. The maximum capability of each slot is PCI-X 133 MHz. Only slots 7 and 8  
enable 133 MHz, PCI-X cards to run at full speed. These two slots are not limited by bus-mode or  
frequency-related incompatibilities.  
Table 6-4 lists the PCI/PCI-X cards vs. slot frequency/bus mode compatibility for shared slots.

Before installing a PCI/PCI-X card, ensure that the proper drivers for that PCI/PCI-X card are installed.  
NOTE  
If you are installing the Graphics Kit A6150B, use slots 3-8. However, do not install the  
included USB card. The server currently supports USB and the ports are already located on the  
rear of the server.  
If you are installing the RAID card A7143A, you must install it into slot 8. If you install this  
card in any other slot, it interferes with the manual retention latch (MRL) on the OLX divider  
in the next slot. Because of this interference, you can install only two RAID cards in the system  
in slot 1 and slot 8.  
To add a PCI/PCI-X card into an empty slot, follow these steps:  
Step 1. If rack-mounted, slide the server out from the rack until it stops. (See “Accessing a Rack-Mounted  
Step 2. Remove the top cover from the chassis. (See “Removing the Top Cover” on page 182.)  
Step 3. Select an empty slot and pull up on the MRL located on the OLX divider approximately 75 degrees.

OLX Dividers  
OLX Dividers  
OLX dividers are located on the I/O baseboard assembly between the PCI cards. Six OLX dividers provide  
short circuit protection to the hot-pluggable PCI accessory boards by preventing inadvertent contact between  
boards during the replacement or addition of a board.  
Additionally, each OLX divider has two light pipes that transfer illumination from one green power LED and  
one amber attention LED mounted on the I/O baseboard, to the top of the divider. The light pipes enables you  
to view the LED status when the top cover is removed.  
WARNING  
Ensure that the system is powered off and all power sources have been disconnected  
from the server before removing or replacing a PCI card divider.  
Voltages are present at various locations within the server whenever an ac power  
source is connected. This voltage is present even when the main power switch is in  
the off position.  
Failure to observe this warning can result in personal injury or damage to  
equipment.  
CAUTION  
Observe all ESD safety precautions before attempting this procedure. Failure to follow ESD  
safety precautions can result in damage to the server.  
Removing an OLX Divider  
NOTE  
An alternative method of removing OLX dividers is to remove all OLX dividers at once by  
removing the rack they are mounted in from the I/O baseboard assembly, then removing or  
replacing the individual OLX divider, and then replacing the rack back on the I/O baseboard.  
The OLX divider rack is attached to the I/O baseboard with four Torx T15 fasteners.  
To remove an OLX divider, follow these steps:  
Step 1. If rack-mounted, slide the server out from the rack until it stops. (See “Accessing a Rack-Mounted  
Step 2. Remove the top cover. (See “Removing the Top Cover” on page 182.)

U320 SCSI Enablement and Conversion Procedures  
This section explains how to upgrade the SCSI cards to enable U320 operation and how to optionally change  
the SCSI configuration (duplex to simplex) in the server. The U320 enablement process involves replacing the  
duplex PCA card (duplex configuration only) and the SCSI backplane (simplex and duplex configurations).  
You can configure the embedded backplane for internal SCSI hard disks drives in the HP 9000 rp4410 and  
rp4440 servers in either simplex or duplex mode.  
In simplex mode, both embedded internal hard disks are on SCSI channel A. SCSI channel B can be used for  
external devices. Remove the cover from channel B before connecting external devices. Do not connect  
external devices to SCSI channel A.  
In duplex mode, each hard disk is on a separate SCSI bus. Do not connect external devices to either SCSI  
channel A or B.  
Time Required  
Upgrading the server can require several hours, depending on preparatory time. Plan for an hour of system  
downtime. Preparatory time includes checking the upgrade kit, preparing an ESD-safe work station, and  
backing up your data.

This appendix addresses the following topics:  
Customer Self Repair  
HP products are designed with many Customer Self Repair (CSR) parts to minimize repair time and allow for  
greater flexibility in performing defective parts replacement. If during the diagnosis period HP (or HP service  
providers or service partners) identifies that the repair can be accomplished by the use of a CSR part, HP will  
ship that part directly to you for replacement. There are three categories of CSR parts:  
Yes: Parts for which customer self repair is mandatory.  
If you request HP to replace these parts, you will be charged for the travel and labor costs of this service.  
Optional: Parts for which customer self repair is optional.  
These parts are also designed for customer self repair. If, however, you require that HP replace them for  
you, there may or may not be additional charges, depending on the type of warranty service designated  
for your product.  
No: Some HP parts are not designed for customer self repair.  
To satisfy the customer warranty, HP requires that an authorized service provider replace the part.  
Based on availability and where geography permits, CSR parts are shipped for next business day delivery.  
Same-day or four-hour delivery may be offered at an additional charge where geography permits. If assistance  
is required, you can call the HP Technical Support Center and a technician will help you over the telephone.  
HP specifies in the materials shipped with a replacement CSR part whether a defective part must be  
returned to HP. In cases where it is required to return the defective part to HP, you must ship the defective  
part back to HP within a defined period of time, normally five (5) business days. The defective part must be  
returned with the associated documentation in the provided shipping material. Failure to return the defective  
part may result in HP billing you for the replacement. With a CSR, HP pays for all the shipping and part  
return costs and determines the courier to be used.  
For more information about HP's Customer Self Repair program, contact your local service provider. For the  
North American program, see the HP website at:

B Utilities  
This appendix describes the utilities that are part of the server. These include the Boot Console Handler  
(BCH) and the iLO MP.  
This appendix addresses the following topics:  
Boot Console Handler  
The BCH user interface provides the interface between you and the firmware through the menus and simple  
commands.  
The BCH is separate code in processor-dependent code (PDC). The BCH code has two purposes:  
Enables the bootstrap code to know which path to boot from.  
Enables you to interact with PDC to view and modify a set of specific system parameters.  
Booting is standard for PA RISC, but can be transparent depending on the state of the autoflags (boot,  
search, and start). If the autoflags are clear and you override autobooting, a boot sequence ends in the  
interactive portion of BCH where modification and viewing of some system parameters is possible.  
NOTE  
When the autostartflag is off, autoboots are interrupted if a configuration change occurs,  
which causes reduced performance. Therefore, you must intervene before booting to the  
internal system loader (ISL).  
The auto boot halts at the BCH prompt. Continue booting by entering boot.  
BCH Commands  
The PDC user interface provides the following types of commands:  
User Commands  
Relate to common system management or administration tasks such as  
configuration or boot.  
Service Commands  
Available to qualified service personnel. The service commands are  
generally used to access information about faults that occur while the  
system is running.  
Table B-1 shows the BCH Main Menu, submenus and commands. Examples are provided in “BCH Main Menu

BCH Main Menu Commands and Submenus  
The following sections provide information and examples of the submenus and commands in the BCH  
firmware user interface.  
The BCH Main Menu is the first menu displayed when you enter the firmware user interface. The other menus  
available are listed in this menu. Enter DI(display) to view the commands available from this menu.  
Access other menus by entering the name of the menu at the command prompt. From a given menu, you can  
run a command from any other menu by entering the menu name that is associated with the command,  
followed by the command. For example, to run the TI(time) command (in the COnfiguration menu) from the  
Main Menu, enter co ti. To see all available commands listed under their respective menus, enter HE(help) MA  
(main).

* You cannot modify the keyboard path.  
Boot Command  
Use the BO(boot) command to initiate the boot sequence from any menu in the interface. You can enter either  
a default or specified path to the boot device. This path must be the definition of a device, for example,  
FWSCSI.6.0 or PRI. The default is PRI.  
Path Command  
The PA(path) command displays or sets the current paths. Invoked with only one argument, PAdisplays the  
current path of the entity passed as argument. For example, path altdisplays the current alternative boot  
path, and path pri fwscsi.6.0sets up the primary boot path as the device attached to SCSI controller with  
ID 6 and LUN 0. You can also set and display the paths of console (graphics/serial) and keyboard. For  
example:  
Main Menu: Enter command or menu > pa  
Primary boot path:  
intscsia.1  
0/1/1/0.1

Main Menu: Enter command or manu >  
Search Command  
The SEA(search) command automatically checks all possible boot and install devices connected to the system  
and displays these bootable paths. In several firmware versions, it links these paths to a shortcut (such as  
P0). It can also search the LAN, if the system can boot it. Some firmware revisions enable you to restrain the  
search path, for example SEAlan or SEAdisk. The SEAcommand is available in the Main and COnfiguration  
menus.  
Main Menu: Enter command or menu > sea

SCSI Command  
The SCSIcommand displays and sets the SCSI controller parameters, such as initiator ID and speed. The OS  
device drivers use these parameters to program the controller.  
NOTE  
These values are only suggested by the device driver; the actual values programmed into the  
controller can be different.  
ProductNum Command  
The ProductNumcommand configures the original or current product number. The software ID (SWID) does  
not get updated automatically when the original product number changes, but you can manually update the  
SWID by resetting the system with the resetcommand.  
iLO MP  
The Integrated Lights-Out Management Processor (iLO MP) for entry-level PA-RISC is an autonomous  
management subsystem embedded directly on the server. It is the foundation of server High Availability  
(HA), embedded server, and fault management. It also provides system administrators secure remote  
management capabilities regardless of server status or location. The iLO MP is available whenever the  
system is connected to a power source, even if the server main power button is in the off position.  
Remote access is the key to maximizing efficiency of administration and troubleshooting for enterprise  
servers. Integrity servers have been designed so all administrative functions that can be performed locally on  
the machine can also be performed remotely. iLO enables remote access to the operating system console,  
control over the server power and hardware reset functionality, and works with the server to enable remote  
network booting through a variety of methods.  
HP has used several different names to describe the management functionality embedded in their servers,  
including the “management processor.” In addition, HP uses the term “management processor” to refer to any  
embedded microprocessor that manages a system. Management processor is a descriptive term (such as  
“server”), and iLO is a brand name, or label (such as “Integrity”).  
For complete information on the iLO MP, see the HP Integrity and HP 9000 Integrated Lights-Out  
Management Processor Operations Guide.
