Before reading this manual
For your safety
This manual contains important information for safely and correctly using this
product.
Carefully read the manual before using this product. Pay particular attention to
the accompanying manual "Safety Notes and Regulations" and ensure these
safety notes are understood before using the product. Keep this manual and the
manual "Safety Notes and Regulations" in a safe place for easy reference while

Radio interference
This product is a "Class A" ITE (Information Technology Equipment). In a
domestic environment this product may cause radio interference, in which case
the user may be required to take appropriate measures. VCCI-A
Aluminum electrolytic capacitors
The aluminum electrolytic capacitors used in the product's printed circuit board
assemblies and in the mouse and keyboard are limited-life components. Use of
these components beyond their operating life may result in electrolyte leakage
or depletion, potentially causing emission of foul odor or smoke.
As a guideline, in a normal office environment (25°C) operating life is not
expected to be reached within the maintenance support period (5 years).
However, operating life may be reached more quickly if, for example, the product
is used in a hot environment. The customer shall bear the cost of replacing
replaceable components which have exceeded their operating life. Note that
these are only guidelines, and do not constitute a guarantee of trouble-free
operation during the maintenance support period.
High safety use
This product has been designed and manufactured for general uses such as
general office use, personal use, domestic use and normal industrial use. It has
not been designed or manufactured for uses which demand an extremely high
level of safety and carry a direct and serious risk to life or body if such safety
cannot be ensured.

These uses include control of nuclear reactions in nuclear power plants,
automatic airplane flight control, air traffic control, traffic control in mass
transport systems, medical devices for life support, and missile guidance control
in weapons systems (hereafter, "high safety use"). Customers should not use
this product for high safety use unless measures are in place for ensuring the
level of safety demanded of such use. Please consult the sales staff of Fujitsu if
intending to use this product for high safety use.
Measures against momentary voltage drop
This product may be affected by a momentary voltage drop in the power supply
caused by lightning. To prevent a momentary voltage drop, use of an AC
uninterruptible power supply is recommended.
(This notice follows the guidelines of Voltage Dip Immunity of Personal
Computer issued by JEITA, the Japan Electronics and Information Technology
Industries Association.)

1 Introduction
The PRIMERGY BX620 S6 dual-socket server blade constitutes the sixth
generation of extremely compact and powerful BX620 server blades. It provides
a wide range of current technologies such as the latest generation of multi-core
processors, DDR3 memory modules with powerful 3-channel architecture per
CPU, modular hard disk controller configuration, and 2.5-inch SAS/SATA
HDD/SSD modules.
The three available storage module variants allow SAS or SATA HDD/SSD
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 a 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.

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
(capacities: 1 GB and 2 GB) and 192 GB with RDIMMs (capacities: 2 GB, 4 GB,
8 GB, and 16 GB).
IA combination of both memory 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)
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 system board 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.

3 Safety instructions
IThe following safety instructions are also provided in the manual "Safety
Notes and Regulations".
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 shall be performed by technical
specialists. A technical specialist is a person who is trained to install
the server blade including hardware and software.
●Repairs to the device that do not relate to CSS failures shall be
performed by service personnel. Please note that unauthorized
interference with the system will void the warranty and exempt the
manufacturer from all liability.
●Any failure to observe the guidelines in this manual, and any improper
repairs could expose the user to risks (electric shock, energy
hazards, fire hazards) or damage the equipment.
●Before installing/removing internal options to/from the server blade,
turn off the server blade, all peripheral devices, and any other
connected devices. Also unplug all power cords from the power
outlet. Failure to do so can cause electric shock.
Before starting up
VCAUTION!
●During installation and before operating the device, observe the
instructions on environmental conditions for your device.
●If the device is brought in from a cold environment, condensation may
form both inside and on the outside of the device.
Wait until the device has acclimatized to room temperature and is
absolutely dry before starting it up. Material damage may be caused
to the device if this requirement is not observed.

●Transport the device only in the original packaging or in packaging
that protects it from knocks and jolts.
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
immediately, 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).
