Diag LSB System Fault

Intel® Server Board SE7520BD2 Back Panel

Your Intel Server Board SE7520BD2 has six diagnostic LEDs visible fromthe chassis back panel. The following text describes the function ofeach LED:

Diagnostic LEDs A, B, C, and D are multi-colored LEDs that can be OFF, Green,Amber, or Red. Each color represents 4 bits in a 16-bit hexadecimal code.All of the codes are documented in the Intel® Server Board SE7520BD2Technical Product Specification.

LED E - System Fault LED, can be OFF or Amber = ON.LED F - System ID, can be OFF or Blue = ON.

Note: It is normal for the LEDs to flash during boot and occasionally duringproper system operation. Analysis of the bits is only necessary if the systemis hung, and the LEDs are continuously lit.

*Diagnostic LEDs are not available on the Intel® Server Board SE7520BD2-V.

A. Confirm BIOS and FRU/SDR VersionsLook on the Server/System Management screen in the BIOS Setup Utility to determine theinstalled BIOS and FRU/SDR versions. Compare these to the versions at:http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/SE7520BD2/If new versions are available, update the BIOS and FRU/SDR on your server.See the User Guide on the Intel® Server Deployment Toolkit CD for update instructions.

B. Configure your Server with the Server Configuration WizardBoot to the Server Board SE7520BD2 Intel® Server Deployment Toolkit CD.Select the Server Configuration Wizard to configure your server for remote servermanagement. Unless you have downloaded a newer version of the FRU/SDR fromthe Web, use the Server Configuration Wizard also to load the FRU/SDR.

C. Configure your RAID ControllerUse the instructions provided with the RAID controller.

D. Install your Operating SystemUse the instructions provided with the RAID controller and with the operating system.

E. Install Operating System DriversWith the operating system running, insert the Intel® Server Deployment Toolkit CD.If using a Microsoft* Windows* operating system, the Express Installer will autorunand allow you to select the appropriate drivers to install. On other operating systems,browse the CD folders to locate and install the driver files.

F. Install Intel® Management Module-Professional (optional) or Intel® Management Module-Advanced Edition (optional)

G. Install Intel® Server Management 8 (optional)With the operating system running, insert the Intel® Server Management 8 CD thatcame with your server board. On a Windows* operating system, the Setup programwill auto-run. Follow the on-screen instructions. For installation details, seeGetting Started with Intel® Server Manager 8, located on the ISM CD.

H. Install Intel® SMaRT Tool (optional)With the operating system running, insert the Intel® Server Deployment Toolkit CD.The Express Installer will autorun. Click Intel® SMaRT Tool at the left side of thescreen. Follow the on-screen instructions. For information about Intel® SMaRT Tool,see http://developer.intel.com/design/servers/smarttool/index.htm.

8 Making Connections to the Server Board ... Quick ReferenceIntel® Server Chassis SC5275-E Note: When installing your server board into the Intel® Server Chassis SC5275-E, install the hard drive bay before making your connections.See the Intel® Server Chassis SC5275-E Quick Start User's Guide for instructions on installing the drive bay.

Common Problems and Solutions

The system does not boot or show video at power-on.• Check that the +12V CPU power connector is plugged in. Without this cable, the processors will not have any power.• If configuring with only one processor verify that the processor is in the Primary Processor socket (CPU 1).• Remove and replace DIMMs one bank at a time to isolate which one is causing problems. • Remember, all DIMMs must be: • Registered DDR266 or DDR333 compliant. • The same speed. • From the same manufacturer. • Installed beginning with DIMM 1B. • Installed with no empty sockets inbetween filled sockets. • Spacing: DDR-333 in bank 2 only. DDR-266 in bank 2 or 3. • Mirroring: DDR-333 (bank 1 to 2). • Single slot populate: DIMM 1A.• Your power supply must provide a minimum of 600-W with 2-A standby current, which complies with the SSI EPS 12V specification.

The system sometimes works, but is exhibiting erratic behavior.• This is typically the result of using an under-rated power supply. Make sure you are using at least a 600-W power supply.

7 Install DIMMMemory

Open both DIMM socket levers.

Check that socket levers aresecurely latched.

Insert DIMM making sure theconnector edge of the DIMMaligns correctly with the slot.

Memory Type: Minimum of one128MB, DDR266/333-compliantregistered SDRAM 184-pin DIMM.

The DIMM size, speed and vendor must be the same within a bank. However, the DIMM size can vary between banks. For example, Bank 1 can use two 128-MB DIMMs and Bank 2 can use two 256-MB DIMMs.

Note: Bank 3 cannot be populated with DDR333-compliant DIMMs.

Notes and Cautions:A single DIMM can be used in the first slot of Bank 1 (DIMM1A).Bank 1 (DIMM1B and DIMM1A) must be fully populated before populating Bank 2 (DIMM2B and DIMM2A). Memory in Bank 2 must be populated in pairs.
