1 Introduction The PRIMERGY B120 server is an Intel-based server for small and medium-sized networks and can be used as a tower (floorstand) or rack servers. Conversion to the respective other version is possible with an optional conversion kit. The PRIMERGY B120 Server offers a high level of failure protection and availability through highly developed hardware and software components.
Introduction Features Power supply The PRIMERGY B120 server is equipped with a permanently installed power supply. High level of availability and failure protection When memory data are accessed, 1-bit errors in the main memory are recognized and automatically corrected with the ECC (Error Correcting Code) method. ASR&R (Automatic Server Reconfiguration and Restart) restarts the system in the case of an error and automatically "hides" the defective system components.

2 Important notes In this chapter you will find information regarding safety which it is essential to take note of when working with your server. The manufacturer's notes contain helpful information on your server. 2.1 ! Safety The following safety notes are also provided in the manual "Safety, Guarantee and Ergonomics", which contains additional information about guarantee and ergonomics.
Important notes Safety Poper operation of the system, warranty features WARNING! ! • Proper operation of the device (in accordance with IEC 60950/DIN EN60950) is only ensured if the casing is completely assembled and the rear covers have been put in place (electric shock, cooling, fire protection, interference suppression). • • Before opening the device first switch it off and then disconnect the power plug.
CE certificate Important notes Modules with electrostatic sensitive components Boards with electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD) may be identified by labels. When you handle boards fitted with ESDs, you must observe the following points under all circumstances: • • • • • You must always discharge yourself (e. g. by touching a grounded object) before working. The equipment and tools you use must be free of static charges. Pull out the power plug before inserting or pulling out boards containing ESDs.

This means that the designers have taken into account decisive criteria such as durability, selection of materials and coding, emissions, packaging, the ease with which the product can be dismantled and the extent to which it can be recycled.
3 Installation ! Please take note of the safety information in the chapter "Important notes". Do not expose the server to extreme environmental conditions (see section "Technical data"). Protect it from dust, humidity and heat. i There must be a clearance of at least 200 mm in front of and behind the server to ensure adequate ventilation. Do not cover the ventilation areas of the monitor and the server. 3.1 Installation steps Ê Ê Unpack the server (see next section ”Unpacking the server”).
Installation 3.3 Instructions on connecting and disconnecting cables Instructions on connecting and disconnecting cables Be sure to read the documentation on the external devices before connecting them. ! Do not connect or disconnect cables during a thunderstorm. Always take hold of the actual plug. Never unplug a cable by pulling the cable itself. Connect and disconnect the cables in the order described below. Connecting cables • • • • • Turn off all power and equipment switches.
Setting up the tower server Installation 3.4.1 Connecting the tower server to the line voltage The server is equipped with a permanently installed standard power supply. Two standard designs are available for the power supply. The only difference between them is that the connection panel is rotated 180°. Since the connection panels are otherwise identical, the diagrams below show only one of the standard power supplies.
Installation Installing rack-server in/removing from rack 3.4.2 Connecting the monitor to the line voltage On the server with the standard power supply it is possible to connect the power cable of the monitor to the server. 1 2 Ê Depending on the connector and the power supply, plug the monitor's power cable into either the server (1) or a grounded power outlet (2).
Installing rack-server in/removing from rack Installation 3.5.1 Mounting the slide-in module 1 2 Ê Screw together the front panel and the bottom tray to form a slide-in module (1 + 2). Ê Place the server in the slide-in module with the right side facing downward and somewhat offset toward the rear.

Connecting devices to the server 3.7 Installation Connecting devices to the server All ports are on the rear of the server. Which ports are available on your server depend on the boards installed. The standard ports are marked with symbols and some are color-coded. 7 6 1 2 5 4 3 Tower 1 2 7 6 5 4 3 Rack 1= 2= 3= 4= Mouse Parallel interface (burgundy) LAN Monitor (blue) Ê Connect the data cables at the server and peripherals.
Installation ! Connecting devices to the server If you connect the monitor power cable to the monitor power outlet of a server with the standard power supply, then the current consumption of the monitor may not exceed 1.5 A (at 230 V) or 3 A (at 115 V). The rated current for the monitor is also given on the monitor itself or in the Operating Manual for the monitor. When connected to an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) the monitor must also be taken into account.

6 Property and data protection The tower server is protected against unauthorized opening with the lock. Regardless of this, two intrusion detection switches are employed with which the ServerView program recognizes and logs any removal of the housing side cover and the hard disk cover. To prevent the tower server from being stolen, it can be secured to a fixed object with a steel cable run through the tab on the back. The rack server is protected against unauthorized access with the lockable rack door.
