  • Page 10: Errata

    Some RAID controllers fail to recognize their Option ROM access hot- key sequence needed to configure the card during POST Problem Intel has determined a BIOS issue where some RAID controllers may fail to recognize their Option ROM access hot-key sequence needed to configure the card during POST.
  • Page 11: Platform Confidence Test (Pct) Reports Sio Error When No Floppy Drive Is Present11

    PCT checks for the status of the floppy controller only assuming a floppy drive is present. This causes the SIO test module to fail. Until the new PCT is available, Intel recomends customers to disregard this error. Workaround Add a floppy drive to the system configuration to clear error.
  • Page 12: Bmc Sel Timestamp Incorrect Information

    Technical Specification Update Errata Status Fixed. Intel has corrected this issue with a change to the basedboard, which was implemented in October of 2004. For details, please reference Product Change Notification #104462. BMC SEL Timestamp Incorrect Information Problem The Intel® Server Board SE7520JR2 has been found to have a BIOS erratum which causes the BMC SEL timestamp information to be incorrect.
  • Page 13: Lm93 Sensor Monitoring Issue

    LM93 sensor monitoring issue Problem The Intel® Server Board SE7520JR2 has been found to have an issue where the LM93 monitoring chip is masking events generated by specific system sensors. This is happening because the LM93 part is operating in an S4/S5 sleep mode.
  • Page 14: Cpu 2 Processor Fault Led Illuminated When No Processor Is Installed

    SEL event generated for this fault indicator condition. Status Fix. Intel plans to correct this issue with a IMM BMC Firmware Update. All IMM BMC firmware release prior to and including rel 47 will have this issue. Silk screen for onboard SCSI Channels denote the internal SCSI connector as Channel A and the external SCSI connector as Channel B.
  • Page 15 Technical Specification Update Errata Implication The system status LED may be blinking green indicating a degraded system configuration that does not exist. Workaround None. Status Fixed. This issue has been corrected in FRUSDR 6.6.A and later.

  • Page 18 Technical Specification Update Documentation Changes The expected error rates for DIMMs come from three sources: Intel experimental measurements, data from a memory component vendor, and the results from a 10 year study by a major computer manufacturer. The three respective error rates are all stated per GB of memory: 1.5 errors per year, about 1 error per month, and 4 per month.
  • Page 19 LED activity indication to the hard drive carriers. This cable is not used with the SE7520JR2 onboard SATA controller. “ Implication The cable may be mis-used to connect the baseboard and the SATA backplane. Status Doc. This will be corrected in a future release of Intel® Server Chassis SR1450 User Guide.
