S3420GP and RAM

$
0
0

Hello,

I have a server mothebord S3420GP with 6 memory slots.

Now, I have 2 slots filled with these: 2x KINGSTON 4GB 1333MHz DDR3 ECC CL9 DIMM with Thermal Sensor.

 

Is possible to use another 4 these RAMs? So I would have 24 GB RAM with 6 x 4 GB. Is this combination possible?

 

Or is possible to use 4 x KINGSTON 8GB DDR3 1333MHz CL9 ECC Dual Rank BOX.

So total memory size will be 32 GB RAM.

 

Thanks for any answers.

 


raw ipmi command to retrieve NIC 1 MAC address on S2600GZ

$

Hi there,

 

what is the right approach to retrieve the NIC 1 MAC address (for OS usage) via IPMI?

 

NOTE: I am assuming the system is powered off and that a DHCP server assigned an IP address to the BMC LAN channel 1.

 

The S2600GZ technical product specification section 6.10.3.2.3 highlights the convention used to assign MAC address so conceptually one could calculate it from the BMC LAN channel 1 MAC address (by subtracting 4) but that seems brittle so I am looking for the (raw) IPMI command to provide that info directly!?

 

Other vendors implemented vendor-specific IPMI commands but I can't seem to find the doc that would cover an S2600GZ board..

 

Thanks & cheerio, Harry.

Unable to enable SSD Cache on multiple VDs AXXRPFKSSD2 with RMS3CC080 - when latest FW loaded

$

Hi,

 

We're getting errors when a setting up SSD Cache on single and multiple VDs with the RMS3CC080 Raid cards (we have tried 2 new raid cards both have the below problems).

 

The problem only seems to exist with the latest firmware (v24.16.0-0082), previous FW: (24.15.0-0023) seems to works fine.

 

You can create the SSD Cache VD fine, it's when you go to 'enable' the SSD Cache on one or more VDs when it either simply wont enable OR you get the below error:

ssdcache error.jpg

 

When you upgrade to the latest FW v24.16 with SSD config already assigned to multiple VDs, then it seems to work OK, but when you clear configuration and try to start from scratch, the errors start again.

 

 

Can I ask Intel is this a problem Intel is aware of and will it be fixed in the next FW release?

 

For now we're running with the previous FW rev. 24.15.0-0023, but the customer may upgrade later without our knowledge...

 

 

 

Thanks for your help.

 

Rob.

Problem with RS3WC080 Raidcontroller

$

Mainboard: SC2600CP2R mainboard with 2 Xeon CPU's and 128 GB Ram, latest firmware, works perfekt.

RaidControler: RS3WC080 with 4x1TB Seagate Intel-certificated SAS Drives, latest firmware.

 

i am able to create a virtual device (raid-5 array with state optimal, 3 x 1 TB + 1 hotspare), but can't declare as boot-device, boot device is always "none".

This happens in boot-mode legacy (configuration with CTRL-R) and in boot.mode UEFI (configuration over PCI-Configuration -> UEFI Option Rom Control -> Storage Controler)

 

Installation of VMWARE 6.5 or Windows Server 2016 stops with "no boot device found"

 

I spend a lot of time, but can't find any error.

 

I would be very happy if somebody can help me

S2600WTTR Power failure if USB Disk connected

$

Hi,

we have several new Servers with the S2600WTTR Mainboard (System BIOS - R01.01.0021 and R01.01.0022).

When we connect a USB 3.0 Disk (WD Elements 2TB), the server beeps and restarts.

 

Beep Code: 1-5-4-2

Associated Sensor: Power fault

Reason for Beep: DC power unexpectedly lost (power good dropout) -Power unit sensors report power unit failure offset...

 

In the BMC Server Health log i have this entries:

 

807/21/2017 16:11:06Pwr Unit StatusPower Unitreports the power unit has suffered a failure - On-board 5V and 3V3 Power failure, - Deasserted
22707/21/2017 16:11:05Pwr Unit StatusPower Unitreports the power unit is powered off or being powered down - Deasserted
22607/21/2017 16:11:00Pwr Unit StatusPower Unitreports the power unit is powered off or being powered down - Asserted

 

Update:

I have this problem on Servers with Vmware installed / also on Systems with Windows - Do i need to check some Bios Settings ?

If the Server stands on BIOS Screen and you connect the USB Disk, also a power fault occure and the server restarts...

 

 

Any ideas ? any help is appreciated! Thanks in advance!

How do I update the BIOS on a very old S2600CP motherboard?

$

Hi,

 

I've just been given an ancient, refurbished S2600CP2J motherboard complete with CPUs and RAM and would like to get it fully working again.

 

The obvious first step is to update the BIOS but the oldest EFI update package available (01.02.003) states that I need to have at least version 01.01.1002 before starting or "the update process may render the system not operatable!"

 

According to the BIOS screen, my system is currently SE5C600.86B.99.99.x034, build date 08/23/2011.

 

As I have no wish to kill the system before I get started, is there any way of upgrading it to 01.01.1002 as a minimum?

 

Thanks.

S1200BTL Strange Behavior

$

Hi Everyone,

 

I used to have an Intel board s1200BTS and I was using an E31265LV2 and Kingston KVR13E9/8HM with it and everything was running fine.

That board died on me and decided to buy a replacement from eBay as I wanted to keep the same server running with the same components but I bought an s1200BTL instead.

 

In theory, they should be both compatible with the same components as they are from the same family. However, when I use the same processor E31265LV2 along with the same Memory KVR13E9/8HM, I get a 1-5-4-2 beep code and the board keeps resetting with no output on the screen.

 

Now the new BTL board came with another processor 1220V2, but when I use it with KVR13E9/8HM, the board does not boot either and the status LED keeps blinking orange but no beep codes.

 

Has anyone faced a similar issue or can explain what's happening?

 

Thanks

 

Omar

STOP 0x00000124 BSoD occured in the following environment and at the following timing.

 

The environment
-S1200SPLR (FW:03.01.0021)
-Windows 2016 standard (clean installed)
-Pentium G4560
-SanMax SMD4-E16G28H-21P-D DDR4-2133 U-DIMM ECC 8GBx2
-AVAGO MegaRAID 9265-8i (PCIe x8)
-Intel Expander RES2SV240 (PCIe x4)
-Broadcom BCM957810A1006G 10GbE (PCIe x8)
-Samsung SSD 840 EVO (SATA)

 

When BSoD occurs
-Run Windows Update
-Install Chipset Driver

 

I tried the following, but I did not improve it.

 

-Remove all PCIe cards
-Run Memtest86 >> no error
-clean install OS
-Replace the keyboard and mouse

 

Thank you for your assistance.
