RMC 7189
1U Rackmount System
1-2 Serverboard Features
At the heart of theAcnodes RMC7189 lies the embedded system, a dual processor serverboard
based on the Intel® IOH-36D + ICH10R chipset. Below are the main features of the embedded system
(See Figure 1-1 for a block diagram of the chipset).
Processor
The RMC7189 supports single or dual two Intel® 5500 Series processors in LGA1366 sockets.
Please refer to our web site for a complete listing of supported processors
Memory
The RMC7189 has 240-pin DIMM sockets that can support up to 96 GB of regis- tered ECC DDR3-
1333/1066/800 SDRAM. Please refer to Chapter 5 for installing memory.
UIO
The RMC7189 is a specially-designed serverboard that featuresAcnodes's UIO (Universal I/O) tech-
nology. UIO serverboards have a PCI Express x8 slot that can support any one of several types of UIO
card types to add SAS ports, additional LAN ports, etc. to the serverboard. This allows the user to
tailor the serverboard to their own needs.
Note: the server does not come with a UIO card installed.
Onboard SATA
An on-chip (ICH10R) SATAcontroller is integrated into the RMC7189 to provide a six-port, 3 Gb/sec
SATAsubsystem, which is RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 supported. The SATAdrives are hot-swappable units.
Note: You must have RAID set up to enable the hot-swap capability of the SATAdrives. Documentation
on RAID setup guidelines can be found on our web site.
Onboard Controllers/Ports
An onboard IDE controller supports one floppy drive. Onboard I/O backpanel ports include one COM
port, a VGA port, two USB ports, PS/2 mouse and keyboard ports and two Gigabit LAN (NIC) ports.
Graphics Controller
The RMC7189 features an integrated Matrox G200eW graphics chip, which includes 8 MB of DDR2
memory.

Other Features
Other onboard features that promote system health include voltage monitors, a chassis intrusion
header, auto-switching voltage regulators, chassis and CPU overheat sensors, virus protection
and BIOS rescue.
1-3 Server Chassis Features
The RMC7189 features eight 2.5" hard drive bays and high-efficiency power supplies. The
RMC7189 is built upon the embedded system chassis while the RMC7189 is built upon the embed-
ded system chassis. Details on the chassis and on servicing procedures can be found in Chapter
6.The following is a general outline of the main features of both chassis.
System Power
The RMC7189 features a redundant 650W power supply consisting of two power modules. The
system does not need to be shut down when replacing or removing a single power supply module.
The RMC7189 features a single 560W power supply module. The system must be shut down when
replacing or removing this power supply module.
PCI Expansion Slots
Ariser card on the right side of the chassis can sup- portAOC-PG-i2+ add-on card to provide two
Gb LAN ports. The left side supports a UIO card and one PCI-E x16 card. These two systems can
support four SAS/ SATAdrives with an optional UIO SAS card.
See page 5-10 for details. (Right and left refer to the side when viewed from the front of the system.
Control Panel
The SC113 control panel provides important system monitoring and control informa- tion. LEDs
indicate power on, network activity, hard disk drive activity and a UID (Universal Information) LED.
Also present are a main power button, a system reset button and a UID button.
I/O Backplane
The RMC7189 is a 1U rackmount chassis. Its I/O backplane provides three standard size PCI slots,
one COM port, one VGA port, two USB ports, PS/2 mouse and keyboard ports, two Ethernet (LAN)
ports, one dedicated IPMI LAN port and a UID LED.

Cooling System
The RMC7189 chassis' revolutionary cooling design has been optimized to provide sufficient cooling
for dual CPU configurations. The chassis includes an air shroud and four 4-cm counter-rotating fans
located in the middle of the chassis. There is a "Fan Speed Control Mode" in BIOS that allows chas-
sis fan speed to be determined by system temperature.

CHAPTER 2 INSTALLATION
2-1 Overview
This chapter provides a quick setup checklist to get yourAcnodes RMC7189 and running. Following
the steps in the order given should enable you to have the system operational within a minimal amount
of time. This quick setup assumes that your RMC7189 system has come to you with the processor and
memory preinstalled. If your system is not already fully integrated with a motherboard, processor,
system memory etc., please turn to the chapter or section noted in each step for details on installing
specific components.
2-2 Unpacking the System
You should inspect the box theAcnodes RMC7189 was shipped in and note if it was damaged in any
way. If the server itself shows damage, you should file a damage claim with the carrier who delivered it.
Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold theAcnodes RMC7189. It should be situ-
ated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated.Avoid areas where heat, electrical noise and
electromagnetic fields are generated. You will also need it placed near a grounded power outlet. Read
the Rack and Server Precautions in the next section.
2-3 Preparing for Setup
The box the RMC7189 was shipped in should include two sets of rail assemblies, two rail mounting
brackets and the mounting screws you will need to install the system into the rack. Follow the steps in
the order given to complete the installation process in a minimum amount of time. Please read this
section in its entirety before you begin the installation procedure outlined in the sections that follow.
Choosing a Setup Location
o Leave enough clearance in front of the rack to enable you to open the front door completely (~25
inches)and approximately 30 inches of clearance in the back of the rack to allow for sufficient airflow
and ease in servicing. This product is for installation only in a RestrictedAccess Location (dedicated
equipment rooms, service closets, etc.).
o This product is not suitable for use with visual display work place devices accord- ing to §2 of the the
German Ordinance for Work with Visual Display Units.

Rack Precautions
o Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully extended to the floor with the full
weight of the rack resting on them.
o In a single rack installation, stabilizers should be attached to the rack.
o In multiple rack installations, the racks should be coupled together.
oAlways make sure the rack is stable before extending a component from the rack.
o You should extend only one component at a time - extending two or more si- multaneously may
cause the rack to become unstable.
Server Precautions
o Review the electrical and general safety precautions in Chapter 4.
o Determine the placement of each component in the rack before you install the rails.
o Install the heaviest server components on the bottom of the rack first, and then work up.
o Use a regulating uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect the server from power surges,
voltage spikes and to keep your system operating in case of a power failure.
oAllow the power supply units and hot plug SerialATAdrives to cool before touching them.
oAlways keep the rack's front door and all panels and components on the servers closed when not
servicing to maintain proper cooling.
