Preface Extensions and conversions
1.3 Extensions and conversions
Second processor
If only one processor is installed in your server blade, you can add a second
processor to it. You may only use processors of the same type. The second
processor must have the same clock frequency as the first.
Main memory expansion
The system board has a total of 9 slots for memory modules. Of these, 6 slots
are for CPU 1 and 3 slots for CPU 2.
In total, the system board supports up to 72 GB main memory. Memory
modules with a capacity of 1 GB, 2 GB, 4 GB or 8 GB can be used.
Both registered DDR 3 memory modules (RDIMM) and unbuffered DDR 3
memory modules (UDIMM) are permitted. However, you must not use a mixture
of these two module types.
IYou can find detailed information on the main memory in the technical
manual for the D2680 system board.
Optional I/O modules (mezzanine cards)
The server blade has two slots for expansion boards (known as mezzanine
cards), which can each provide two Fibre Channel connections or four
additional Ethernet connections.
You can choose from the following I/O modules:
– 8 Gbit Fibre Channel mezzanine card with 2 port (PCIe x8)
– 1 Gbit Ethernet mezzanine card with 4 ports (PCIe x4)
IYou will find a description on how to install or exchange mezzanine cards
in the "PRIMERGY BX920 S1 Server Service Supplement" manual.

Installation and operation
VCAUTION!
●Observe the notes on installation and operation in the operating
manual of your BX900 S1 system unit.
●When installing the server blade in the system unit, beware of the
energy hazard at the midplane contacts. A short circuit on these
contacts can damage the system.
●Data cables must be adequately shielded to avoid interference.
●The EN 50173 and EN 50174-1/2 standards apply for LAN cabling.
The minimum requirement is the use of a category 5 screened LAN
cable for 10/100 Mbit/s Ethernet, or a category 5e cable 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 for the
device.
●Do not connect or disconnect any data transmission cables during a
thunderstorm (lightning hazard).
●Make sure that no objects (e.g. jewelry, paperclips etc.) or liquids get
inside the unit (electric shock hazard, short circuit).
●In emergencies (e.g. damaged casing, control elements or power
cables, penetration of liquids or foreign bodies), switch off the device
immediately, unplug it from the grounded power outlets, and contact
your customer service team.
●Proper operation of the system (in accordance with IEC 60950/DIN
EN 60950) is only ensured if the casing is completely assembled and
the rear covers for the installation openings have been put in place
(electric shock, cooling, fire protection, interference suppression).
●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.

violate these safety regulations.
You can find out which system extensions are suitable 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. The hot-pluggable/hot-swappable components are excep-
tions to this rule.
●If you cause a defect on the device by installing or exchanging system
extensions, the warranty will be invalidated.
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:
Cd Cadmium
Hg Mercury
Pb Lead

Modules with Electrostatic-Sensitive Devices
Modules with electrostatic-sensitive devices are identified by the following
sticker:
Figure 1: 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,
ANSI/ESD S20.20).

5 Processors
VCAUTION!
Follow the safety instructions in the chapter “Safety instructions” on
page 11.
VCAUTION!
Processors are modules which can react extremely sensitively to electro-
static discharges and which must therefore always be handled with care.
After a processor has been removed from its protective sleeve or from its
socket, place it with its smooth side down on a non-conducting, antistatic
surface.
Never push a processor over a surface.
5.1 Installing a second processor
If only one processor is installed in your server blade, you can upgrade it to
include a second one.
VCAUTION!
●Always use processors of the same type. All processors used must
have the same clock frequency, capacity and organization. For multi-
processor mode use a suitable multi-processor operating system.
ÊOpen the server as described in section “Opening the Server Blade” on
page 15.
