Enabling Replaced Components In The System Bios; Verifying The Memory Mode - Fujitsu Primergy BX920 S4 Upgrade And Maintenance Manual

5.2.9

Enabling replaced components in the system BIOS

When a processor, an expansion card, or a memory module fails, the defective
component will be set to Disabled or Failed in the system BIOS. The server blade
will then reboot with only the intact hardware components remaining in the
system configuration. After replacing the defective component, it needs to be re-
enabled in the system board BIOS.
Ê Open a virtual console for your server blade as described in section
"Launching a video redirection to a server blade" on page
Ê Switch on or restart your server blade.
Ê As soon as the startup screen appears, press the [F2] function key to enter
the BIOS.
Ê Select the Advanced menu.
Ê Select the status menu of the desired component:
– Processors: CPU Status
I
This option is only available for multi-processor systems.
– Memory: Memory Status
– Expansion cards: PCI Status
Ê Reset replaced components to Enable.
Ê Save your changes and exit the BIOS.

reference manual.

5.2.10 Verifying the memory mode

If a memory module fails, the server blade will reboot and the defective module
will be disabled. As a result, the current operation mode (e.g. Mirrored Channel
mode) may no longer be available due to a lack of identical memory module
pairs. In this case, the operation mode will automatically revert to Independent
Channel Mode.
