BX620 S5 Options Guide 5
1 Introduction
The PRIMERGYBX620 S5 dual-socket server blade represents the fifth
generation of highly compact and powerful BX620 server blades. It offers
extension options for latest-generation dual-core and quad-core processors,
DDR3 memory modules with a powerful 3-channel architecture per CPU,
I/O daughter cards, as well as modular hard disk controllers and 2.5-inch SAS,
SATA or SSD hard disks.
The three available storage module variants allow SAS and SATA hard disk
configurations for different usage scenarios. The configuration options range
from the low-cost platform with SATA hard disks up to the high-end platform with
SAS hard disks and an SAS storage module with RAID5 and Cache/iTBBU.
As an option, the communications interfaces can be extended by two Fibre
Channel channels or two additional Ethernet channels.
1.1 Concept and target groups of this manual
This options guide shows you how to expand and upgrade your server.
VCAUTION!
The actions described in this manual should only be carried out by

Introduction Extensions and upgrades
1.3 Extensions and upgrades
Second processor
If only one processor is installed in your server blade, you can upgrade it to
include a second one. You may only use processors of the same type in the
server blade. The second processor must have the same clock frequency as the
first.
Upgrading the memory
The server blade offers 6 DDR3 DIMM slots per CPU (organized in 2 banks and
3 channels). All 12 main memory slots support RDIMMs (registered DIMMs)
and UDIMMs (unbuffered DIMMs). Only memory modules of the same capacity
can be installed on the same memory bank.
This allows a maximum memory configuration of 24 GB with UDIMMs (capac-
ities: 1 GB and 2 GB) and 96 GB with RDIMMs (capacities: 2 GB, 4 GB and
8GB).
IA combination of both module types is not allowed.
Optional I/O module
The server blade has one slot for an extension board (daughter card) which can
be used to provide two Fibre Channel connections or two additional Ethernet
connections. The following I/O modules are available:
– 4-Gbit Fibre Channel daughter card (PCIe)
– 1-Gbit Ethernet daughter card (PCIe)
– 10-Gbit Ethernet daughter card (PCIe)
To be able to use the additional I/O functionality, at least one FC I/O blade or an
Ethernet I/O blade must be installed in slots NET3 and/or NET4 of the BX600
S3 basic unit. For more information, see the operating manual for your basic
unit.
Storage modules
The hard disks are controlled by a storage module (controller) which can be
plugged into the motherboard and which may also have additional functions.
The following variants can be used: SAS, SAS/RAID and SAS/PCIe. The PCIe
variant allows the installation of low-profile modules.

Storage modules can be installed/replaced via the front of the server blade
without having to remove the housing cover. However, they cannot be replaced
while the system is running (non-hot-plug) - the server blade must be switched
off.

This device complies with the relevant safety regulations for data processing
equipment, including electronic office machines for use in an office
environment.
If you have any questions as to whether you can set up the device in your
particular environment, please contact your sales outlet or our customer service
centre.
VCAUTION!
●The actions described in this manual should only be performed by
technical specialists.
●Repairs to the device that do not relate to CSS failures must only be
carried out by service personnel. Please note that unauthorized inter-
ference with the system will void the warranty and exempt the

Installation and operation
VCAUTION!
●Read the notes on installation and operation in the operating manual
of the BX600 S3 basic unit.
●When installing the server blade in the basic unit, beware of the
energy hazard at the midplane contacts. A short-circuit on these
contacts may damage the system.
●Data cables must be adequately shielded to avoid interference.
●For the LAN wiring, the requirements according to standards EN
50173 and EN 50174-1/2 apply. The minimum requirement is the use
of a protected LAN line of category 5 for 10/100 Mbit/s Ethernet,
and/or of category 5e for Gigabit Ethernet. The requirements of the
specification ISO/IEC 11801 must also be taken into account.
●Route the cables in such a way that they do not form a potential
hazard (tripping) and cannot be damaged. When connecting the
device, refer to the relevant notes in the operating manual.
●Do not connect or disconnect any data transmission cables during a
thunderstorm (lightning hazard).
●Make sure that no objects (such as bracelets or paper clips) or liquids
get inside the device (risk of electric shock or short circuit).
●In emergencies (e.g. damaged casing, control elements or cables,
penetration of liquids or foreign bodies), switch off the device immedi-
ately, unplug it from the grounded power outlets, and contact your
customer service center.
●Proper operation of the device (in accordance with IEC60950/EN
60950) is only ensured if the casing is completely assembled and the
rear covers for the installation openings are in place (electric shock,
cooling, fire protection, interference suppression).

BX620 S5 Options Guide 17
Notes on safety
VCAUTION!
●Install only system extensions that satisfy the requirements and rules
governing safety, electromagnetic compatibility, and telecommunica-
tions terminal equipment.
If you install other extensions, you may damage the system or violate
these safety regulations.
Information on which system extensions are suitable can be obtained
from the customer service center or your sales outlet.
●The components marked with a warning label (e.g. lightning symbol)
may only be opened, removed or exchanged by authorized, qualified
personnel, with the exception of the hot-plug/hot-swap components.
●If you cause a defect on the device by installing or exchanging system
extensions, the warranty will be invalidated.
●You may only set the resolutions and refresh rates specified in the
operating manual for your monitor.
Otherwise, you may damage the monitor. If you are in any doubt,
contact your sales outlet or customer service center.
Batteries
VCAUTION!
●Incorrect replacement of batteries may lead to a risk of explosion. The
batteries may only be replaced with identical batteries or with a type
recommended by the manufacturer.
●Do not throw batteries into the trash can. They must be disposed of
in accordance with local regulations concerning special waste.
●The battery must be disposed of in accordance with local regulations
concerning special waste.
●Replace the lithium battery on the system board in accordance with
the instructions in the service supplement for the server blade.
●All batteries containing pollutants are marked with a symbol (a
crossed-out garbage can). In addition, the marking is provided with
the chemical symbol of the heavy metal decisive for the classification
as a pollutant:

sticker:
Figure 2: ESD label
When you handle components fitted with ESDs, you must always observe the
following points:
●Switch off the system and remove the power plugs from the power outlets
before installing or removing components with ESDs.
●You must always discharge static build-up (e.g. by touching a grounded
object) before working with such components.
●Any devices or tools that are used must be free of electrostatic charge.
●Wear a suitable grounding cable that connects you to the external chassis of
the system unit.
●Always hold components with ESDs at the edges or at the points marked
green (touch points).
●Do not touch any connectors or conduction paths on an ESD.
●Place all the components on a pad which is free of electrostatic charge.
IFor a detailed description of how to handle ESD components, see the
relevant European or international standards (EN 61340-5-1,
