Page 57 Chapter 4 Installing Mass Storage Devices Non-hot-swap shelves Figure 4-9. Non-Hot-Swap Shelf in LH 6000 CAUTION Protect the drive from static electricity by leaving it in its anti-static bag until you are ready to install it. Before handling the drive, touch any unpainted metal surface to discharge static electricity.
Page 58: Non-Hot-Swap Scsi Addressing
Chapter 4 Installing Mass Storage Devices To install a non-hot-swap, mass storage device, such as a flexible tape drive, CD-ROM drive, tape back-up drive or hard disk drive. The installation procedure is the same for the rack-mount and the pedestal NetServers once you gain access to the server.
Page 59: Connecting Scsi Sub-Systems
Chapter 4 Installing Mass Storage Devices Connecting SCSI Sub-systems The second LVD SCSI connector, bus B, can be used to connect to peripheral sub-systems such as the HP RS/12 or DLT tape libraries. CAUTION Do not mix high voltage differential (HVD) driver and receiver devices with the SE, LVD (Ultra2), or multi-mode devices on the same SCSI bus.

Page 67: Installing Additional Boards
6 Installing Additional Boards Introduction This chapter describes how to install accessory boards into the I/O board. The I/O board is located under the top cover of the LH 6000r and under the left cover of the LH 6000. Refer to Chapter 3, "Opening and Closing the HP NetServer," for instructions on removing the covers.
Page 68: Guidelines
See Chapter 2, "Controls, Ports, and Indicators," in the "Sleep States" section. Some accessory board outputs may exceed U.S. National Electrical code (NFPA 70) Class 2 or power source limits and must use appropriate interconnecting cabling in accordance with the National Electrical Code. (All Hewlett-Packard boards comply with Class 2.)
Page 69: Irq Settings
Chapter 6 Installing Additional Boards IRQ Settings BIOS automatically assigns the IRQs (hardware interrupts) for each PCI slot and embedded device in the NetServer during boot. These assignments trigger the NOS to enable the APIC (Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller). APIC takes advantage of the expanded set of non-conflicting IRQs for those accessory boards requiring more than one IRQ per slot.
Page 70: Installing Accessory Boards
Chapter 6 Installing Additional Boards Installing Accessory Boards NOTE To perform a hot add, or a hot replacement when the HP NetServer is powered up, refer to help information provided on the HP NetServer Navigator CD-ROM provided with your NetServer. Use this procedure to install all PCI accessory boards for the following situations: The initial installation of PCI Hot Plug boards All PCI boards without hot-plug compliant drivers installed or removed in...
Page 71 Chapter 6 Installing Additional Boards 4. For both rack-mounted and pedestal models, follow the instructions in Chapter 3, "Opening and Closing the HP NetServer," to gain access to the I/O board. NOTE In the LH 6000r, this assembly is under the top cover; in the LH 6000, it is under the left cover.
Page 72 Chapter 6 Installing Additional Boards Figure 6-3. Removing a PCI Slot Cover Front Board Hold Down Figure 6-4. Removing Front Board Hold Down...
Page 73 Chapter 6 Installing Additional Boards NOTE To prevent intermittent problems, ensure each unused PCI slot has a PCI slot cover. If a PCI board is removed and not re-installed, you must install a PCI slot cover. CAUTION Do not bend the PCI board to install it into the slot. If the PCI board is full-length, the PCI front board hold-down at the rear of the PCI slot is used to hold the board in place.
Page 74 Chapter 6 Installing Additional Boards Figure 6-5. Installing an Accessory Board 14. Lower the retainer. 15. Secure the PCI board by rotating the locking lever counter-clockwise to hold the retainer (see Figure 6-3). NOTE Be sure the PCI latch and retainer close fully so that the slot will power on when the NetServer reboots.
Page 75: Pci Hot Plug Boards
Chapter 6 Installing Additional Boards NOTE All PCI slots (with the PCI hold-down latch closed) power on and the HP NetServer recognizes all new boards when it reboots, regardless of the presence of a driver or a PCI Hot Plug Utility. If the PCI board requires a driver (non-hot plug-compliant or hot plug-compliant) that is not loaded during NOS installation, you must load the driver according to the respective NOS’s...

Page 79: Installing Additional Processors
7 Installing Additional Processors Introduction The HP NetServer LH 6000 and the HP NetServer LH 6000r support up to six processors and accompanying voltage regulation modules (VRMs) on the system board assembly. The HP NetServer LH 6000 and the HP NetServer LH 6000r ship with one processor and an accompanying voltage regulation module (VRM) in the initial slots (Slot 1).
Page 80: Installing The Processor
Chapter 7 Installing Additional Processors CAUTION Before you remove a processor from the anti-static container, touch a grounded, unpainted metal surface on the HP NetServer to discharge static electricity. Do not change the processor speed switches as this can result in unreliable or intermittent performance, and data integrity may also be at risk.
Page 81 Chapter 7 Installing Additional Processors CAUTION Wear a wrist-strap and use a static-dissipating work surface connected to the chassis when handling components. Ensure the metal of the wrist strap contacts your skin. 6. Place the system board assembly on an anti-static pad. 7.
Page 82 Chapter 7 Installing Additional Processors Figure 7-3. Open the Latches 12. Align the processor being added over the next available slot so that the heat sink faces away from the system board for processors 1, 2, and 3, and towards the system board for processors 4, 5, and 6. 13.
