Customer self repair HP products are designed with many Customer Self Repair (CSR) parts to minimize repair time and allow for greater flexibility in performing defective parts replacement. If during the diagnosis period HP (or HP service providers or service partners) identifies that the repair can be accomplished by the use of a CSR part, HP will ship that part directly to you for replacement. There are two categories of CSR parts: • Mandatory—Parts for which customer self repair is mandatory.
Obligatoire - Pièces pour lesquelles la réparation par le client est obligatoire. Si vous demandez à HP de remplacer ces pièces, les coûts de déplacement et main d'œuvre du service vous seront facturés. Facultatif - Pièces pour lesquelles la réparation par le client est facultative. Ces pièces sont également conçues pour permettre au client d'effectuer lui-même la réparation.
In base alla disponibilità e alla località geografica, le parti CSR vengono spedite con consegna entro il giorno lavorativo seguente. La consegna nel giorno stesso o entro quattro ore è offerta con un supplemento di costo solo in alcune zone. In caso di necessità si può richiedere l'assistenza telefonica di un addetto del centro di supporto tecnico HP. Nel materiale fornito con una parte di ricambio CSR, HP specifica se il cliente deve restituire dei componenti.
defekte Teil nicht zurückschicken, kann HP Ihnen das Ersatzteil in Rechnung stellen. Im Falle von Customer Self Repair kommt HP für alle Kosten für die Lieferung und Rücksendung auf und bestimmt den Kurier-/Frachtdienst. Weitere Informationen über das HP Customer Self Repair Programm erhalten Sie von Ihrem Servicepartner vor Ort. Informationen über das CSR-Programm in Nordamerika finden Sie auf der HP Website unter (http://www.hp.com/go/selfrepair).
enviara el componente defectuoso requerido, HP podrá cobrarle por el de sustitución. En el caso de todas sustituciones que lleve a cabo el cliente, HP se hará cargo de todos los gastos de envío y devolución de componentes y escogerá la empresa de transporte que se utilice para dicho servicio. Para obtener más información acerca del programa de Reparaciones del propio cliente de HP, póngase en contacto con su proveedor de servicios local.

Removal and replacement procedures Required tools You need the following item for some procedures: • T-10/T-15 Torx screwdriver • HP Insight Diagnostics software ("HP Insight Diagnostics" on page 78) Preparation procedures To access some components and perform certain service procedures, you must perform one or more of the following procedures: • Extend the server from the rack (on page 27).
• Press and hold the Power On/Standby button for more than 4 seconds to force the server to enter standby mode. This method forces the server to enter standby mode without properly exiting applications and the OS. If an application stops responding, you can use this method to force a shutdown. • Use a virtual power button selection through HP iLO. This method initiates a controlled remote shutdown of applications and the OS before the server enters standby mode.
Remove the server from the rack To remove the server from an HP, Compaq branded, telco, or third-party rack: 1. Power down the server (on page 26). 2. Extend the server from the rack (on page 27). 3. Disconnect the cabling and remove the server from the rack. For more information, refer to the documentation that ships with the rack mounting option. 4. Place the server on a sturdy, level surface.
2. After the display fully ejects, rotate the display downward to view the LEDs. Access the product rear panel Opening the cable management arm IMPORTANT: The cable management arm is not supported with the friction rail kit. To access the server rear panel: 1. Release the cable management arm.
2. Open the cable management arm. Note that the cable management arm can be right-mounted or left-mounted.

5. Release the full-length expansion board retainers. To replace the component, reverse the removal procedure. Safety considerations Before performing service procedures, review all the safety information. Preventing electrostatic discharge To prevent damaging the system, be aware of the precautions you need to follow when setting up the system or handling parts. A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor may damage system boards or other static-sensitive devices.
This symbol indicates the presence of electric shock hazards. The area contains no user or field serviceable parts. Do not open for any reason. WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from electric shock hazards, do not open this enclosure. This symbol on an RJ-45 receptacle indicates a network interface connection. WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or damage to the equipment, do not plug telephone or telecommunications connectors into this receptacle.

HP Insight Diagnostics survey functionality HP Insight Diagnostics (on page 78) provides survey functionality that gathers critical hardware and software information on ProLiant servers. This functionality supports operating systems that are supported by the server. For operating systems supported by the server, see the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/supportos).
USB support and functionality USB support HP provides both standard USB 2.0 support and legacy USB 2.0 support. Standard support is provided by the OS through the appropriate USB device drivers. Before the OS loads, HP provides support for USB devices through legacy USB support, which is enabled by default in the system ROM. Legacy USB support provides USB functionality in environments where USB support is not available normally.

Systems Insight Display LEDs The HP Systems Insight Display LEDs represent the system board layout. The display, available on 8 SFF, 16 SFF, and 8 LFF configurations, enables diagnosis with the access panel installed. Item Description Status 1 Power cap Off = System is in standby, or no cap is set. Solid green = Power cap applied 2 NIC link/activity Off = No link to network. If the power is off, view the rear panel RJ-45 LEDs for status.
Systems Insight Display LED combinations When the health LED on the front panel illuminates either amber or red, the server is experiencing a health event. Combinations of illuminated Systems Insight Display LEDs, the system power LED, and the health LED indicate system status. Systems Insight Display Health LED LED and color Processor (amber) Red System power LED Status Amber One or more of the following conditions may exist: • • • • Processor in socket X has failed.

Crash dump log analysis is an essential part of diagnosing reliability problems, such as hangs in operating systems, device drivers, and applications. Many crashes freeze a system, and the only available action for administrators is to cycle the system power. Resetting the system erases any information that could support problem analysis, but the NMI feature preserves that information by performing a memory dump before a hard reset.

Drive LED definitions Item LED Status 1 Locate Solid blue The drive is being identified by a host application. Flashing blue The drive carrier firmware is being updated or requires an update. Rotating green Drive activity Off No drive activity Solid white Do not remove the drive. Removing the drive causes one or more of the logical drives to fail. Off Removing the drive does not cause a logical drive to fail. Solid green The drive is a member of one or more logical drives.
Status On = AC power is connected. Off = AC power is disconnected. Missing = Riser cage is not installed, or power might not be connected. FBWC module LEDs (P222, P420, P421) The FBWC module has three single-color LEDs (one amber and two green). The LEDs are duplicated on the reverse side of the cache module to facilitate status viewing.
1 - Amber 2 - Green 3 - Green Interpretation Off Off Off The cache module is not powered. Off Flashing 0.5 Hz Flashing 0.5 Hz The cache microcontroller is executing from within its boot loader and receiving new flash code from the host controller. Off Flashing 1 Hz Flashing 1 Hz The cache module is powering up, and the capacitor pack is charging. Off Off Flashing 1 Hz The cache module is idle, and the capacitor pack is charging.
For a single-processor configuration, four fans and two blanks are required in specific fan bays for redundancy. A fan failure or missing fan causes a loss of redundancy. A second fan failure or missing fan causes an orderly shutdown of the server. Installing more than the required number of fans in a single-processor configuration is not a supported configuration. For a dual-processor configuration, six fans are required for redundancy. A fan failure or missing fan causes a loss of redundancy.
