Preface
Prevent rapid rises in the ambient temperature during winter. Such an abrupt
temperature change may cause condensation to form in the main unit. Allow
sufficient warm-up time before starting operation.
Do not install the main unit close to a device that generates large amounts of
electrical noise.
Do not connect the main unit to the same power supply line as an elevator in
the facility or other equipment that would expose it to sudden voltage drops.
Confirm that the power supply voltage and frequency are adequate
according to the respective ratings shown on the main unit.
Do not insert or drop foreign matter into the openings of the main unit. The
main unit contains high-voltage components. If any metallic matter or other
electro-conductive object enters the main unit through an opening, it may
cause a short circuit. This may lead to fire, electric shock, or damage to the

Preface
Note on erasing data from hard disks when disposing of the product or transferring it
Disposing of this product or transferring it as is may enable third parties to access the data on the hard disk and use it for
unforeseen purposes. To prevent the leakage of confidential information and important data, all of the data on the hard
disk must be erased before disposal or transfer of the product.
However, it can be difficult to completely erase all of the data from the hard disk. Simply initializing (reformatting) the hard
disk or deleting files on the operating system is insufficient to erase the data, even though the data appears at a glance to
have been erased. This type of operation only makes it impossible to access the data from the operating system.
Malicious third parties can restore this data.
If you save your confidential information or other important data on the hard disk, you should completely erase the data,
instead of simply carrying out the aforementioned operation, to prevent the data from being restored. To prevent important
data on the hard disk from being leaked when the product is disposed of or transferred, you will need to take care to erase
all the data recorded on the hard disk on your own responsibility.
Furthermore, if a software license agreement restricts the transfer of the software (operating system and application
software) on the hard disk in the server or other product to a third party, transferring the product without deleting the
software from the hard disk may violate the agreement. Adequate verification from this point of view is also necessary.
Warranty
If a component failure occurs during the warranty period, we will repair it free of charge in accordance with the terms of the
warranty agreement. For details, see the warranty.

electromagnetic noise.
-
Do not install the main unit close to a device that generates large amounts of electrical noise.
When installing the main unit, do not connect it to the power supply line for an elevator in the facility, since this would
expose it to sudden voltage drops.
Confirm that the power supply voltage and frequency follows rating values labelled on main unit.
Do not put any materials in the main unit. The main unit contains high-voltage components. So if metallic matter or
other electro-conductive object enters the main unit through an opening, it may cause a short circuit. This may lead to
fire, electric shock, or damage to the main unit.

6.2
NTP Configuration
This section describes the operation method in the PRIMEQUEST 2000 series, regarding the operation of time correction
wherein Network Time Protocol (NTP) is used.
NTP is the protocol which provides the method by which time information is exchanged between the computers of same
type. The time correction function references the correct time on another system at system startup. Then, it sets the time
and keeps it within the specified error range.
At that time, system with original time is called as NTP server and the reference system is called as NTP client. In the NTP
server, it is necessary to activate the NTP service, for responding to the request from the NTP client.
In case of the operation of time correction which is used in NTP, when the operating system is Windows, see Appendix E
Specifications and setting of NTP server (Windows)
All the windows given here are the display examples. Contents displayed according to system configuration are different.
6.2.1
95
FIGURE 6.2 Operation Diagram when External NTP Server is used (When three NTP servers are used)
Only one NTP server can be specified. In that case, when it is not possible to communicate with the NTP server which is
specified by the NTP client, since other synchronous object does not exist, NTP server is disabled. NTP client cannot do
the time correction according to NTP within the period in which communication with the NTP server is restored. As a result,
time is recorded with the system clock accuracy. Since there is an individual difference in the accuracy of the system clock,
when time correction according to NTP is not possible, time gap between the systems is enlarged, and problems might be
caused in the middleware or in the application.
Remark
NTP server 1~NTP server 3 are the NTP servers having high accuracy of time in internet or in intranet.
6.2.2
96
- When alarm occurs in the time maintenance battery of the partition side.

down the operating system. However, even if the operating system supports ACPI, you may be unable to power off
the partition as long as an application that does not support it is running on the operating system. It depends on the
specifications of the operating system and the application. For details, see the manual of the operating system or the
application.
If the operating system is not compatible to ACPI, according to the power cut off operations, the power is cut off
without shutting down the operating system.
Therefore, due to the above-mentioned reasons, shut down the partition in the operating system

Remark
In the PRIMEQUEST 2000 series, the system time of a partition is kept in the Home SB. Therefore, if the
Home SB of a partition is replaced during maintenance or switched by the reserved SB function, the
system time of the partition may become incorrect.
The system clock synchronizes with an NTP server once a week in the default configuration of the
Workgroup environment of Windows. Before Windows Server 2008, the system clock is synchronized at
system startup. However, in Windows Server 2008 R2 or later, it is not synchronized.
Use the following procedures to set the system to synchronize with the system clock.
