Advice (Tips)

Lessons learned and tips are provided here to assist you in setup and operation of the server. Familiarize
yourself with these tips before you setup and use the server.

Server

1. The system's System Data Record (SDR) must be reprogrammed every time that the hardware
configuration changes. A change to memory, processors, power supplies, power cage, hot-swap
backplane, controller boards, or any hardware device or Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) is not
automatically recorded by the system. Failure to update the SRD may result in inaccurate Telco Alarm
Manager (TAM) alarm performance. (The TAM may not report critical failures.) Use the following
procedure to re-write the SRD:
a. Boot the system from the HP Server cc3310 Information Diagnostics and Utilities Resource CD.
b. After the server has booted, select Load Configuration Wizard.
c. When the wizard begins, press Continue.
d. Select Server Configuration Wizard and Continue.
e. Select Run Wizard and Continue.
f. Select Load SDRs only on to this server and Continue.
g. Set the date and time and select Continue.
h. Select Update just the SDR repository and Continue.
i. Select Yes – Activate BMC TAM and Continue.
j. Choose the desired LED configuration and select Continue.
k. Save the configuration to disk and select Continue.
l. Select OK to program SDRs.
m. Observe that the server boots when the SDR repository has been reprogrammed.
2. The fault light colors on the TAM display are factory configured for North American light settings. TAM
fault light colors on the alarm panel can be changed by altering jumpers on the front panel I/O board.
