1 General Information Notice to Service Technicians This is the service document for the HP Netserver LP 2000r. You may also need to access the HP NetServer LP 2000r Installation Guide or the HP NetServer LP 2000r User Guide that are available on the Network Server Division WEB site: http://www.hp.com/netserver Introduction Before operating the HP Netserver LP 2000r, familiarize yourself with the Netserver's controls, ports, and indicators, as shown in the following figures.
Chapter 1 General Information Table 1-1. Control Panel Switches and Control/Indicator Power On/Off/Sleep Switch & LED Description The power switch turns the Netserver power On or Off. If sleep states are available, it also transitions between Power On and sleep states. Sleep states are NOS dependent and not available if your NOS does not support power management based on the ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) standard.
Chapter 1 General Information Rear Panel The ports and connectors at the rear panel are listed below. • The power connector accepts a standard power cable to connect the HP Netserver LP 2000r with a UPS or the site power source. A second power supply for redundancy is optional. Each power supply has its own power cord connection. • The mouse port accepts a standard mouse with a PS/2 connector. • The keyboard port accepts a standard keyboard with a PS/2 connector.
Chapter 1 General Information Table 1-3.
Chapter 1 General Information 2. Press the power switch on the HP Netserver control panel when prompted by the operating system. Normally this completes the power-down procedure. Connecting AC Power to Multiple-Server Configurations The HP Netserver temporarily draws a large "inrush current," when first connected to an AC power source. The inrush current is much greater than the Netserver's normal operating current and generally, the AC power source can handle the normal inrush current.
Chapter 1 6 General Information NOTE The HP Netserver power button will force a power down without waiting for the NOS to gracefully shut down the Netserver, if the power button is pressed and held more than four seconds. CAUTION If the power button override is used, there is a strong possibility that data will be corrupted or lost.
2 System Information Introduction This chapter provides information on mass storage, connector pin-outs, accessory guidelines and system specifications. Mass Storage The HP Netserver LP 2000r comes standard with an IDE CD-ROM and a flexible disk drive with some configuration of SCSI hard disk drives. The internal mass storage cage can hold up to 6 total SCSI drives. Mass Storage Guidelines • General Guidelines ◊ Use care when unpacking and handling the SCSI disk drives.
Chapter 2 System Information ◊ Channel B is used to control external mass storage devices, including an external backup tape drive. Channel B is connected to the external 68-pin SCSI connector on the rear of the Netserver. It can also be connected to internal backplanes and used for duplex mode. • SCSI Drive Addressing ◊ The SCSI drives in the Hot Swap slots are automatically assigned SCSI addresses according to their drive slot location-not by SCSI addresses you may set.
Chapter 2 NOTE System Information The boot order can be changed using the Netserver's (BIOS) Setup Utility and the SCSI Select Utility. Installed Mass Storage Devices Table 2-1 lists the number and types of mass storage devices that may be installed into the HP Netserver LP 2000r. Table 2-1.
Chapter 2 System Information CAUTION To prevent damage to the embedded SCSI controller, don't use a HVD (High Voltage Differential) device. External SCSI Connector The HP Netserver LP 2000r can be configured to extend one of its SCSI channels (typically channel B) to an external SCSI connector. This allows connection of additional mass storage devices to the second channel of the Netserver’s embedded controller.
Chapter 2 System Information Accessory Board Guidelines The HP Netserver LP 2000r provides up to three 33 MHz, 32/64 bit, 5V PCI slots which are located on an extension board.
