Appendix A: Integration and Usage Tips
 When adding or removing components or peripherals from the server board, AC power
must be removed. With AC power plugged into the server board, 5-V standby is still
present even though the server board is powered off.
 This server board supports the Intel® Xeon® processor E5-2600 and Intel® Xeon®
processor E5-2600 v2 product family with a Thermal Design Power (TDP) of up to and
including 135 Watts or Intel® Xeon® processor E5-1600 and Intel® Xeon® processor
E5-1600 v2 and Intel® Xeon® processor E5-1600 and Intel® Xeon® processor E5-1600
v2 product family with a Thermal Design Power (TDP) of up to and including 130 Watts.
Previous generations of the Intel
®
Xeon
®
processors are not supported.
 The server board includes a pre-installed CPU power cable harness. The cable harness
must be installed and fully seated in each connector for the server board to operate.
 On the back edge of the server board are eight diagnostic LEDs that display a sequence
of amber POST codes during the boot process. If the server board hangs during POST,
the LEDs display the last POST event run before the hang.
 This server board only supports registered DDRIII DIMMs (RDIMMs) and un-buffered
DDRIII DIMMs (UDIMMs). Mixing of RDIMMs and UDIMMs is not supported.
 The Intel
®
Remote Management Module 4 (Intel
®
RMM4) connector is not compatible
with any previous versions of the Intel
®
Remote Management Module (Product Order
Code – AXXRMM, AXXRMM2, and AXXRMM3).
 Clear the CMOS with AC power cord plugged. Removing the AC power before
performing the CMOS clear operation causes the system to automatically power up and
immediately power down after the CMOS clear procedure is followed and AC power is
re-applied. If this happens, remove the AC power cord, wait 30 seconds, and then re-
connect the AC power cord. Power up the system and proceed to the <F2> BIOS Setup
utility to reset the desired settings.
 Normal Integrated BMC functionality is disabled with the BMC Force Update jumper set
to the “enabled” position (pins 2-3). The server should never be run with the BMC Force
Update jumper set in this position and should only be used when the standard firmware
update process fails. This jumper should remain in the default (disabled) position (pins 1-
2) when the server is running normally.
 When performing a normal BIOS update procedure, the BIOS recovery jumper must be
set to its default position (pins 1-2).
