Defective Cpu Disconnection Function - Fujitsu PRIMERGY RX200 S4 User Manual

6.3.4 Defective CPU Disconnection Function

This server has a defective CPU disconnection function.
This function disconnects the CPU judged to be defective (causing an error) during Power On Self Test
(POST) and start the server. When two CPUs are installed and one of them is defective, the server starts
with the other CPU.
You can check the defective CPU on the POST screen.
If a defective CPU is discovered, replace it, and then restart the server.
Removing the defective CPU
1
Turn on the server and check the location of the defective CPU by the message
displayed during POST.
2
Replace the defective CPU with a new CPU according to "6.3.3 How to Install a
CPU" ( p.135).
3
Turn on the server and start the BIOS Setup Utility.
"7.2.1 Starting and Exiting the BIOS Setup Utility" (p.176)
4
Select [CPU Status] on the [Server] menu and check that the item
corresponding to the replaced CPU is set to [Enabled].
If it is set to [Failed] or [Disabled], change the status to [Enabled].
"7.2.13 CPU Status Submenu" (p.195)
If the setting is not changed to [Enabled], the server will start with the new CPU still marked as
defective and always disconnected. By changing the setting to [Enabled], the defective CPU
status is cancelled and the new CPU can be used at the next start of the server.
