1 PrefaceThe PRIMERGY S40 storage subsystem family is a homogeneous product concept able to meet the challenge of increasing performance and high avail-ability, and offering scalability in terms of performance as well as capacity.

The PRIMERGY S40-ES is the foundation of the PRIMERGY S40 storage subsystem family. The basis model PRIMERGY S40-BS can be upgraded to a fully-featured PRIMERGY S40-ES, and the PRIMERGY S40-ES to a PRIMERGY S40-DF, this means that a passive storage subsystem can be changed to an active one after it is installed.

The PRIMERGY S40-BS and S40-ES are available as in 19-inch rack, floor-standing and stackable models.

The PRIMERGY S40-BS and S40-ES occupy six height units in a 19-inch rack.

1.1 The PRIMERGY S40-BS

The PRIMERGY S40-BS is a universal high-performance storage subsystem for PRIMERGY server systems. It is the entry-level model in the PRIMERGY S40 storage subsystem family.

The PRIMERGY S40-BS is supplied with up to twelve SCSI hard drives in 16-bit technology (LVD Ultra-2 SCSI).

The PRIMERGY S40-BS has three drive cages, each with space for four hard drives. The three cages can each be connected to a separate SCSI channel (3-channel version) or all of them can be connected to a single SCSI channel (1-channel version). SCSI ID allocation is automatic (see section “The SCSI bus” on page 32).

Through the application of dual-node SCSI modules (PCI RAID Clustering option) the PRIMERGY S40-BS/-ES storage subsystem can be converted for operation in a dual host configuration. This way allows two PRIMERGY servers in a dual host configuration to access the hard disks in a S40-BS/-ES storage subsystem in parallel via the DAC1164P disk array controller. If a PRIMERGY server is switched off or a SCSI cable removed, the SCSI interface involved will be isolated from the dual-node SCSI module automatically.

The PRIMERGY S40-BS can be converted to a storage system that accommodates backup drives. In this case, the PRIMERGY S40-BS has two drive cages in which up to four SCSI hard disks each can be installed and one

U41065-J-Z156-4-76 1

The PRIMERGY S40-BS Preface

drive cage for installing the backup drive. The two drive cages for the maximum of eight SCSI hard disks can be individually be connected to one SCSI channel each (2x4 hard disks) or to only one SCSI channel (1x8 hard disks). The SCSI ID is assigned automatically (see the section “The SCSI bus” on page 32). The backup drives are operated via a third SCSI channel.

Components such as fans, power supply units and hard drives can be replaced with the system running. Redundancy is provided for central components, offering a high degree of data security and reliability.

To provide redundancy, two power supply units can be used in the PRIMERGY S40-BS. If one power supply fails, then the system continues to operate.

The hot plug capability of the power supply units is only usable if redundancy is provided.

The two power supply units may be connected to different phases over separate mains connections, providing the additional benefit of phase redundancy.

The storage subsystem is cooled by a fan module. The fan module has three fans designed as redundant units. If one of the fans fails, the cooling effect is maintained by the two remaining operational fans, preventing the components from overheating. The fan module can be replaced without interrupting operation.

The PRIMERGY S40-BS can be controlled from the server using standard controllers and disk array controllers.

The PRIMERGY disk array controllers (DAC1164P or DAC960PRL) can be used with a maximum of twelve hard disks per channel. A DAC1164P can control up to three S40-BS systems. The “hot replace” functionality for the hard disks is only possible in combination with an appropriate RAID configuration.

The PRIMERGY S40-BS is operated consistently on both the internal and external lines with LVD signals. The disk array controllers DAC1164P and DAC960PRL already support LVD signals; the DAC 960 PG/PJ requires a single-ended LVD converter.

RAID 5 configuration also provides redundancy for the SCSI channels, i.e. the PRIMERGY S40-BS can tolerate the failure not only of hard drives but also of an entire SCSI channel.

Backup drives (only in combination with the backup drives option) are operated with the AHA2940U2W controller or corresponding LVD onboard interfaces.

Preface The PRIMERGY S40-ES

The tried and tested ServerView and ServerStart tools, well known in connection with PRIMERGY servers, are also supported by the PRIMERGY S40-BS. Information relating to the internal operating parameters is passed between the server and the subsystem using SAF-TE (SCSI Accessed Fault-Tolerant Enclosures). ServerView is used on the controlling Server to access these operating parameters.

1.2 The PRIMERGY S40-ES

The configuration options described for the PRIMERGY S40-BS (1-channel or 3-channel as well as the PCI RAID Clustering and the backup drives option) are also applicable to the PRIMERGY S40-ES.

In addition to the advantages of the PRIMERGY S40-BS, the PRIMERGY S40-ES offers a high degree of flexibility in administration through the use of a service processor. The purpose of the service processor is to record system events and to control important system functions. The service processor is also used to handle communication over the CAN bus with the servers and storage subsystems in the management cluster.

To assist integration with server management, a number of servers and storage subsystems can be combined to form a group (functional unit, family/cluster). All the devices in a group are assigned the same group ID, but each has a unique device ID. These IDs (CAN bus addresses) enable each device to be accessed via the communication bus (CAN bus). Up to ten groups can be connected to a communication bus. All the devices in a group must be connected to the same CAN bus.

In contract to SAF-TE (PRIMERGY S40-BS), the regular exchange of data between server and storage subsystem is not impaired by communication using the CAN bus.

The Primergy S40-ES is also fitted with an LCD display. The LCD display is linked directly to the service processor, allowing boot and system information, as well as error messages, to be output locally to the storage subsystem.

The SCSI bus Control panel and connection elements

3.5 The SCSI bus

Each of the three drive cages includes an SCSI backplane with space for up to four hard disk drives. The SCSI backplane allows each of the drive cages to be connected to a separate internal SCSI channel (3-channel version), or all of them to be daisy-chained to a single SCSI channel (1-channel version or 2-channel version if a backup drive is available).

V CAUTION!

The SCSI IDs for the 1-channel and 2-channel versions differ from those for the 3-channel version.

Figure 8: SCSI IDs: 1 channel with 12 SCSI hard disk drives

The SCSI bus for the 3-channel version uses fixed SCSI IDs, with the lowest ID always assigned to the bottom drive in a drive cage (see figure 11 on page 34 and figure 9 on page 33).

4 Power supply

4.1 Power supply units

To improve availability, the PRIMERGY S40-BS and S40-ES are delivered as standard with one power supply unit, which ensure the supply of power to all installed components. The other slots are occupied by dummy units.

I In order to enable true redundancy and the hot replace functionality of the components, a second power supply unit is required.

If one power supply unit fails, the system continues to operate.

The hot plug capability of the power supply units is usable only if redundancy is provided.

Figure 15: PRIMERGY S40-ES with two power supply units (rack model)

The storage subsystem has slots for up to three power supply units. Line voltage is transferred to the power supply units using the connecting cables supplied.

The power supply units may be connected directly to two different phases of the building power supply, providing the additional benefit of phase redundancy (see section “Power connection with phase redundancy” on page 66).

6 DrivesThe PRIMERGY S40-BS / S40-ES can hold up to twelve SCSI hard disk drives in 16-bit technology (LVD Ultra-2 SCSI).

The SCSI hard disk drives are housed in frames that allow defective drives to be replaced (hot replacement) or new drives to be added (hot adding) during operation.

The hot replacement feature is available only in conjunction with a suitable RAID configuration. For more information about RAID configurations / RAID levels, see the documentation for the disk array controller.

A drive can only be replaced if it is not active (see the description of LEDs in section “Hot replacement drives” on page 46) or if it is flagged as defective in the management tool.

The hot replacement feature enhances the availability of the system and guarantees a high degree of data security, as well as a high degree of security in case of drive failure.

The PRIMERGY S40-BS can be converted to a storage system that accommodates backup drives. In this case, the PRIMERGY S40-BS has two drive cages in which up to four SCSI hard disk drives each can be installed, and one drive cage for installing the backup drive.

6.2 Installing/removing hot replacement drives

If the orange LED on one of the hot replacement slide-in units is permanently on (“Drive deactivated”), the corresponding hard disk drive is defective and must be replaced.

Note the following before you install/remove a drive:

● The front panel of the storage subsystem must be freely accessible. On the floor-standing and stackable models this entails opening the door of the storage subsystem.

● If the system is on, the “Drive deactivated” LED (the orange LED on the hot replacement slide-in unit, see figure 22 on page 46) must be on before you can swap the drive.

6.3 Removing a hot replacement drive

Drives can be removed while the system is running.

V CAUTION!

If you need to remove or install a number of modules, please note the information on defective hard disk drive modules in chapter “Trouble-shooting” on page 87.

If you remove hard disk drives permanently, you must fill the open slots with an EMC dummy cover to ensure continued EMC and even cooling (see section “Installing/removing the EMC dummy cover” on page 50).

Drives Mounting/removing a backup drive

6.6 Mounting/removing a backup drive

A separate drive cage is used for the backup drive in the storage subsystem.

The backup drive is mounted in an enclosure, which in turn is mounted in the drive cage for backup drives. This drive enclosure can accept one full-height or two half-height backup drives.

The following conditions must be satisfied when mounting and dismounting disk drives:

● The front bezel of the storage subsystem must be freely accessible. For the floor-standing and stackable variants, this implies that the door of the storage subsystem must be open.

● The backup drives are warm-replaceable, which means that the drives can be swapped when the server is running. In order to do this, however, you will need to have software with a hot-replace or warm-replace functionality (available on the ServerStart CD) that stops the SCSI bus before you replace the backup drive. More information on this feature can be found in the appropriate operating system documentation.

● Every backup drive must be assigned a unique SCSI ID, and the terminator must be disabled. The SCSI bus is terminated on the SCSI backplane of the drive cage by an active terminator.

7 Modules

7.1 The service processor

Using a service processor, the PRIMERGY S40-ES can communicate over the CAN bus with the servers and other storage subsystems in the management cluster.

The purpose of the service processor is to record system events and to control important system functions such as the automatic regulation of the internal temperature and other operating parameters.

Important diagnostics data is saved to non-volatile storage in the service processor, which means it remains available for further evaluation even after a complete power failure.

The service processor is connected directly to the LCD display and the disk array controllers. This means that diagnostics, setup and configuration data can be output locally in the storage subsystem.

Figure 35: Service processor module

�

U41065-J-Z156-4-76 57

The service processor Modules

The following switches and connections are provided on the connection panel of the module (see figure 35 on page 57):

(1-3) CAN bus address switches (see section “The CAN bus”)

(4, 5) Debug connectors for disk array controller (not on PRIMERGY S40-ES)

(6) CAN bus connector (see section “The CAN bus” on page 58)

(7) COM connector for Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)

(8) DIP switches

7.1.1 The CAN bus

A number of servers and storage subsystems can be combined to form a group (functional unit, family/cluster). All the devices in a group are assigned the same group ID, but each has a unique device ID. These IDs (CAN bus address) enable each device to be accessed via the communication bus (CAN bus). Up to ten groups can be connected to a communication bus. All the devices in a group must be connected to the same CAN bus.

The CAN bus is implemented as a cable connection. The CAN bus must be terminated, i.e. the ends of the cable must be fitted with a terminating resistor.

The CAN bus connector (6) is on the connection panel of the service processor, on the back of the PRIMERGY S40-ES (see figure 35 on page 57). The connection is made by a Y cable. An additional cable of suitable length is also required to connect to the server. If you intend to attach additional storage subsystems to this CAN bus, you will need more cables of suitable length (see section “CAN bus configurations” on page 70).

Optical fiber transmission may be used to bridge longer distances between the PRIMERGY Server and the PRIMERGY S40-ES. In this case, the CAN bus connection is made using multimode fiber technology (for more information, see the CAN MMF documentation).

58 U41065-J-Z156-4-76

Modules The service processor

The CAN bus address (group ID and device ID) of the storage subsystem is set using the three rotary switches (1), (2) and (3) on the connection panel of the service processor (see figure 36):

Figure 36: Sample CAN bus address setting

Each of the switches can be set to a number from 0 to 9. The CAN bus address of the server is set using the server‘s BIOS setup routine (see the system module manual or the BIOS setup manual).

The service processor Modules

The device ID set for each device must be unique, and must fall within the following ranges:

● 00 to 09 for servers

● 10 to 99 for storage subsystems

The storage subsystem must have the same group ID as the attached server.

The example in figure 36 on page 59 shows CAN address 110 (i.e. group ID=1; device ID=10).

ServerView and the CAN bus

ServerView uses the CAN bus to communicate with the clients.

ServerView and the related agents are set up within the group of servers and storage subsystems being monitored, allowing ServerView to receive status information on fans, temperatures and other important system components from all members of the group (e.g. from the storage subsystem) via the CAN bus. This information is evaluated by ServerView and processed for display or forwarding to the administrator (manager). For more information, see the ServerView manual (see “Related publications” on page 137).

RemoteView (RTDS), SEMAN and the CAN bus

Firmware updating and storage subsystem testing and diagnostics are only possible via the CAN bus, using SEMAN, supplied on the ServerStart CD, or RemoteView (remote testing and diagnosis system), available as an option. For more information, see the RemoteView manual (see “Related publications” on page 137).

Modules The service processor

7.1.2 Installing/removing the service processor

V CAUTION!

Observe the notes on safety and the information on electrostatic-sensitive component labelling in chapter “Important notes” on page 11.

The service processor is “warm-replaceable”, which means that it can be installed or removed when the server is running.

Ê Undo both knurled screws (1).

Ê Pull the module out of the slot in the direction marked (2).

To install the module, follow the same steps in reverse order.

V CAUTION!

Before installing the module, make sure that all DIP switches (see (8) - figure 35 on page 57) are set to OFF.

7.1.3 Firmware update

A firmware update is carried out over the CAN bus using SEMAN (supplied on the ServerStart CD). You can obtain the latest firmware on the Internet in the Siemens Mailbox or contact our service.

8 Connections

8.1 SCSI connection

The SCSI subsystem of a PRIMERGY S40-BS or S40-ES is operated via the PRIMERGY disk array controllers DAC1164P, DAC960PRL or DAC PG/PJ in combination with a single-ended LVD converter. The PRIMERGY S40-ES (1-channel version with up to 12 SCSI hard disks) can, in addition, also be operated as a capacity extension unit for a PRIMERGY S40-DF via its DAC 960FL disk array controller. For more details on the capacity extension, please refer to the appropriate manual (see “Related publications” on page 137).

Backup drives (only in conjunction with the backup drives option) are operated with the AHA2940U2W controller or corresponding LVD onboard interfaces.

The necessary connectors are located on the connection panel on the back of the storage subsystem (see section “The back panel” on page 30).

For the application in a dual host configuration (only with PCI RAID Clustering option) the SCSI connectors are located on the connector panel of the corre-sponding dual-node SCSI module on the back of the storage subsystem (figure 13 on page 36).

Ê To establish the data connection between the system unit/PRIMERGY S40-DF and the storage subsystem, attach the plug on the cable running from the system unit/PRIMERGY S40-DF to the applicable SCSI connector on the storage subsystem (see section “SCSI connectors” on page 35 and chapter “Configurations” on page 67).

I Make sure the plug is securely screwed to the SCSI connector to ensure smooth data transfer between the system unit and the storage subsystem.

I Make sure the sensible UHD plug is attached to the connector in the correct direction.

U41065-J-Z156-4-76 63

Connection to the CAN bus Connections

8.2 Connection to the CAN bus

In PRIMERGY servers, connection to a CAN bus is a precondition for integration of the PRIMERGY S40-ES in ServerView and for the use of RemoteView. The connection is made by a Y cable (Y connection) and an additional connecting cable of suitable length.

The CAN bus connector of the PRIMERGY S40-ES is located on the connection panel of the service processor module on the back of the storage subsystem (see section “The service processor” on page 57).

Figure 38: CAN bus connection

Ê Connect the Y cable included in the CAN bus connection kit to the CAN bus connector of the PRIMERGY S40-ES (see section “The service processor” on page 57).

Ê Connect the additional connecting cable to one of the two ends of the Y cable.

Ê Establish the connection between the CAN bus connector on the system unit and the PRIMERGY S40-ES. To do this, connect the free end of the additional connecting cable to one end of the Y cable from the system unit.

Ê Attach the terminating resistors T included in the CAN bus connection kit to the free ends of the Y cables (system unit and PRIMERGY S40-ES).

I Make sure the plug is firmly seated in the SCSI socket to ensure smooth data transfer between the system unit and the PRIMERGY S40 storage subsystem.

10.3.1 Fitting the roller-mounted base

If several storage subsystems (stackable models) are installed in a stacked configuration, fit the roller-mounted base to the lowest storage subsystem.

Figure 51: Fitting the roller-mounted base

Ê Remove all the disk drives and power supply units from the storage subsystem. The procedure is described in the earlier sections.

V CAUTION!

The disk drives must all be uniquely identified so that you can reinsert them later into their original bays. If you do not make sure of this, existing data may be destroyed.

Ê Turn over the storage subsystem carefully by 180° and place it on a soft surface to avoid scratching the housing. Ask someone else to assist you when doing this.

Ê Remove the four rubber feet.

Ê Place the roller-mounted base on the storage system.

Ê Attach the roller-mounted base with the four supplied screws to the base of the storage subsystem.

Ê Turn over the subsystem carefully again. Ask someone else to assist you when doing this.

Ê Secure the two carrier rails left and right in the rack using the Allen key No. 5 supplied. Note that the left and right carrier rails are different in their arrangement of the tap holes. The figure shows the left carrier rail. When mounting the carrier rails, the guide nubs of the rails next to the spring nuts must fit into the holes in the support uprights.

Figure 54: Pulling the telescope bars out toward the front

Ê Pull the mounted telescope bars completely out toward the front. They must click into place so that you can longer push them back.

U41065-J-Z156-4-76 79


Ê Remove all drives and power supply units from the storage subsystem. The relevant procedures are described in the previous chapters.

V CAUTION!

The drives must be clearly marked so that you can slide them back into their original slots later. Otherwise you might lose existing data.

I It takes more than one person to lift the storage subsystem into the rack.

The mounting height of the storage subsystem on the telescopic rails of older type is subject to manufacturing tolerances and depends on the weight of each system and thus on the selected configuration. The height position can be corrected with the supplied spacers (three widths: 0.5mm, 0.8mm and 1.0mm), which can even be combined if required.

Figure 55: Sticking the height adjustment spacers

Ê Stick one or more of the height adjustment spacers on the rail surface of the storage subsystem (1) (on the left and right sides, at the position marked with the dotted lines).

This procedure is no more necessary in the case of telescopic rails of newer type (only partially pull-out).

Retrofitting the S40-BS/ES with backup option Upgrades

Ê Mount the protective shield for the SCSI area (see the section “Removing/mounting the protective shield for SCSI area” on page 106) and, if necessary, the protective shield for the module area (see section “Removing/mounting the protective shield for module area” on page 108).

Ê For the floor-standing or stackable variant, mount the left side cover or the top cover (see the section “Removing/mounting the side or housing cover” on page 103), reattach the door, and close the storage subsystem (see the section “Removing and mounting the door” on page 102).

12.5 Retrofitting the S40-BS/ES with backup option

In order to convert a PRIMERGY S40-BS/ES to a storage subsystem with 8 hot-replacement hard disk drives and one backup drive, you will need the SY-F2015L10-A conversion kit.


– one SCSI cable

– a drive cage for the backup drive(s)

– enclosure for backup drives, including adapter

– a blank cover plate

– SCSI address cable (extended)

I The conversion involves only the mounting of a backup drive cage. The existing channel configuration of your PRIMERGY S40-BS/ES is not modified, except for the reduction to two drive cages (with a maximum of 8 hot-replacement hard disk drives).

Ê First ensure that the front and back of the storage subsystem are freely accessible.


V CAUTION!


130 U41065-J-Z156-4-76

Upgrades Retrofitting the S40-BS/ES with backup option

Ê For a floor-standing or stackable variant, first remove the door (see the section “Removing and mounting the door” on page 102) and then remove the left side cover for the floor-standing variant or the top cover for the stackable variant (see the section “Removing/mounting the side or housing cover” on page 103).

Ê In the case of a rack variant, the conversion can be made in the mounted state.

Should you decide to dismount the system in any case, loosen the four knurled screws, slide out the storage subsystem from the rack and dismount it from the rack.

V CAUTION!


For a better understanding of the procedure, use the section “Mounting the rack model” on page 78 as a reference.


I If the rack variant has not been dismounted from the rack, the protective shield for the module area cannot be removed. This area can, however, still be accessed from the back of the storage subsystem. In order to do this, the SCSI connection panel must be first removed.

But this is only necessary if you mount a backup drive into the 1-channel version. In this case you need an additional SCSI cable.

U41065-J-Z156-4-76 131



Ê Loosen the six screws (1) and remove the SCSI connection panel.

Ê Thread the two supplied SCSI cables for the backup drive carefully through the opening in the separator wall between the SCSI and the module areas (3) and attach the SCSI connectors to the SCSI connection panel on channel 2 (see the section “SCSI connectors” on page 35).

Ê Reinsert the SCSI connection panel and fix it with the six screws.

Ê Remove the control panel traverse (see the section “Removing and mounting the control panel traverse” on page 109).

Ê Remove all drives from the storage subsystem. The procedure is described in one of the earlier sections.

V CAUTION!

The disk drives must all be uniquely identified so that you can reinsert them later into their original bays. If you do not make sure of this, existing data may be destroyed. Note that the hard disk drives of cage 3 are dropped (loss of data).

Ê Disconnect all cables from the connectors on the backplane of the SCSI drive cages 2 and 3.

� � ( 1 2 *

132 U41065-J-Z156-4-76


I The various connectors can be accessed more easily if you tip the cage slightly (see Figure 96 on page 133).

The cage for backup drives is installed on the right (rack/stackable variant) or top (floor-standing variant).

Figure 96: Removing drive cages

Ê Remove the middle (1) and right drive cages (2).

Figure 97: Mounting drive cages

Ê Mount the cage for backup drives (1) on the right. Make sure that the LVD/SE converter on the back of the cage is in the correct position: pointing upward.

Ê Remount the middle drive cage (2).

U41065-J-Z156-4-76 133


Ê Reconnect the cabling, depending on the channel configuration. You can also use the diagrams in Figure 98 on page 135 and Figure 99 on page 136 as an orientation.

V CAUTION!

The conversion kit includes a longer SCSI address cable. Use this cable if the existing cable in the storage subsystem is no longer usable (too short) after the conversion.

V CAUTION!

The SCSI connector on the backup drive cage must always be connected to the SCSI connector for channel 2.

The final state of the internal cabling is illustrated in Figure 98 on page 135 and Figure 99 on page 136.

Ê Remount the control panel traverse (see the section “Removing and mounting the control panel traverse” on page 109).

Ê Remount the protection shield for the SCSI area (see the section “Removing/mounting the protective shield for SCSI area” on page 106).

Ê For a floor-standing or stackable variant, mount the left side cover or top cover (see the section “Removing/mounting the side or housing cover” on page 103), reattach the door (see the section “Removing and mounting the door” on page 102) and close the storage subsystem.

Ê Remount up to a maximum of eight hot-replacement drives in their original bays in the drive cages 1 and 2.

Ê Mount the backup drive with the supplied enclosure into cage 3 (see the section “Mounting a backup drive” on page 54).
