I/O function card component locations - (NF 8500R - Type 8681)


I/O function card component locations

The following simplified layout of the I/O function card identifies the components.

 


-1- External SCSI connector (channel A)
-2- CD-ROM drive connector
-3- SCSI B detect jumper (J19)
-4- Internal SCSI connector (channel B)
-5- Diskette drive connector
-6- Front panel connector
-7- Advanced System Management PCI Adapter connector
-8- Battery
-9- Flash page swap jumper (J13)
-10- Power-on password override jumper (J14)
-11- Clear CMOS register contents jumper (J15)
-12- Video port connector (note 1)
-13- Parallel port connector
-14- Serial port A connector
-15- Serial port B connector
-16- Keyboard connector (note 2)
-17- Mouse connector

Notes:
  1.  The video port connector is a 15-pin, D-shell connector behind the parallel port connector.
  2.  The keyboard connector is behind the mouse connector, and is closer to the circuit side of the board.


I/O function card jumpers:

Table 13 describes the jumpers on the I/O function card.
The highlighted numbers in the table correspond to the highlighted numbers on the (above) illustration in 'I/O function card component locations'.
See 'Three-Pin jumper blocks' for instructions and an illustration on changing the I/O function card jumper settings.


Note: Turn off the server, and disconnect the power cord before moving any jumpers.

Table 13. I/O function card jumpers 

Jumper name    Description
   
   -3- J19 SCSI B    The default position is a jumper installed on pins 1 and 2.
   detect jumper    Change the position of this jumper after you disconnect the
     SCSI cable from the internal SCSI port B and connect the
     cable to a ServeRAID adapter.
     See 'Cabling internal hard disk drives to a ServeRAID adapter (optional)'
     for additional information.
   -9- J13 Flash page swap    The default position is a jumper installed on pins 2 and 3.
     Changing the position of this jumper will change which of the
     two pages of flash ROM is used when the system starts.
   -10- J14 Power-on    Changing the position of this jumper bypasses the power-on
   password override    password check. You do not need to move the jumper back to the
     default position after the password is overridden.
     Changing the position of this jumper does not affect the administrator
     password check if an administrator password is set.
   -11- J15 Clear    If you need to erase configuration information, you must move this jumper.
   CMOS register    The default position is a jumper installed on pins 1 and 2.
     contents jumper.
     When you change the position of this jumper, you must remove the battery
     on the I/O function card, and then move the jumper to pins 2 and 3.
     See 'Battery replacement'. After removing the battery and moving
     the jumper, wait at least 5 minutes.
     Changing the position of this jumper erases all configuration and setup
     information, including the power-on and administrator passwords.
     Therefore, you must reconfigure the server after clearing CMOS memory
     (see 'Reconfiguring the server and updating server records').
     If possible, record the server configuration information before moving
     the Clear CMOS register contents jumper.
     After you clear the CMOS register contents, move the jumper back to its
     normal position (pins 1 and 2); then, reinstall the battery on the I/O
     function card.
