Intel® Server System SR1640TH TPS

Appendix A: Integration and Usage Tips

Revision 1.0

Intel order number: E94847-001

Appendix A: Integration and Usage Tips

Before attempting to integrate and configure your system, you should reference this section,

which provides a list of useful information.

After the system is integrated with processors, memory, and peripheral devices, the

FRUSDR utility

must

be run to load the proper Sensor Data Record data to the

integrated Server Management subsystem. Failure to run this utility may prevent

Server Management from accurately monitoring system health and may affect

system performance. The FRUSDR utility for this server system can either be run

from the Intel Deployment CDROM that came with your system, or can be

downloaded from the Intel website referenced at the bottom of this page.

To ensure the highest system reliability, make sure the latest system software is

loaded on the server before deploying the system onto a live networking

environment. This includes system BIOS, FRUSDR, BMC firmware, and hot-swap

controller firmware. The system software can be updated using the Intel Deployment

CDROM that came with your system or can be downloaded from the Intel website

referenced at the bottom of this page.

System fans are not hot-swappable.

Only supported memory validated by Intel should be used in this server system. A list

of supported memory can be found in the Intel

Server System SR1640TH Tested

Memory List which can be downloaded from the Intel website referenced at the

bottom of this page.

This system supports the Intel

Xeon

processor 3400 sequence. You cannot use

Intel

Xeon

processors not referenced on the supported processor list in this server

system.

You must use the CPU/memory air duct to maintain system thermals.

To maintain system thermals, you must populate all hard drive bays with either a

hard drive or drive blank.

You must remove power from the system prior to opening the chassis for service

You can download the latest system documentation, drivers, and system software from the
