In this chapter, the regular jumper of motherboard and BIOS function setup of
this server are introduced. Only operator or administrator with qualification of system
maintenance can implement these operations described in this part.
3.1 System BIOS Setup

BIOS is a basic input and output system. With some special setting programs, it
can adjust the system parameter and the hardware parameter. As BIOS has great influ-
ence on the starting and running of the system, setting parameters improperly may arise
the conflict among hardware resources, or affect the system’s performance. Hence un-
derstanding the BIOS setup is significant to server configuration. If there is no especial
requirement, we suggest you use the default value and not alter the parameters.
Notes:
1.Before the server BIOS setup is altered, please record the corresponding origi-
nal setup. Hence when there are operating problems in the system due to the alteration,
the setup can be restored.
2.The factory default system setup is usually the optimized setup. Don’t try to al-
ter the parameters before you understand their denotations.
3.The common setup is introduced in detail in this chapter. For items less used in
the application, this chapter only offers simple instruction or just omits the instruction.
4.The contents of the BIOS may differ due to the different configurations of prod-
ucts; no detailed introduction will be provided here.

Chapter Six Install Operating System
This chapter primarily focuses on the method for manually installing the prevail-
ing operating system to the server. Ruijie Server Kit support the intelligent and auto-
matic installation of mainstream Windows operating system and Linux operating sys-
tem. As for the actual operating system supported, the optional operating system ver-
sions in the drop-down menu of <Select the Operating System> in the software prevail.
What’s more, some configuration of the server may not support the automatic installa-
tion of these operating systems (such as SATA HostRAID configuration), you need to
install other version of the operating system manually according to the actual demands.
During manual setup of the operating system, some operating system may need
the floppy drive or Inspur driver U disk to load the driver of hard disk controller. Re-
fer to the readme.pdf file under the root directory in Inspur driver CD for the making
method of the driver floppy disk. If the configuration you purchased is configured with
Inspur driver U disk, you may refer to relevant contents of this chapter for the making
method of Inspur driver U disk.
If your server is configured with external RAID card or SAS sub-card, please refer
to the electronic version of User Manual in the CD of external RAID card or SAS sub-
card to load the driver of the hard disk controller. If it uses onboard SATA controller,
please make the driver of controller according to the attached driver CD. For network
card driver, video driver and system patch program, the guidance in the chapter can
also be referred for setup.
This installation instruction states the manual installation of operating system, tak-
ing two configurations of onboard SATA HostRAID and onboard SATA AHCI as exam-
ples. If your server is configured with other external RAID card, please load the HDD
controller drive by referring to the user manual in the attached CD. As for the network
drive, display card and system patch program, you can still refer to this chapter.
It is suggested that you confirm in advance that whether the purchased machine
configuration supports the version of the operating system to be installed.
6.1 Application Instructions for Inspur driver U disk

Under Windows system and Linux system, Inspur driver U disk can be identified
33

as two parts: virtual floppy driver [3.5 floppy disk (A :)] and normal partition of U disk
[UDISK PRO]. When you install some operating systems manually, you can use Inspur
driver U disk to load the drive of hard disk controller (at present, the operating systems
that use Inspur driver U disk to load the hard disk controller support Windows XP or
above versions, Red Hat Linux 4.5 or above versions, and Suse Linux 9.0 SP2 or above
versions).
Warning:
During the installation of the operating system by using Inspur driver, it may
detect Inspur driver U disk on the disk partition interface. At this moment, the
user must distinguish U disk from hard disk, and never delete or format U disk.
During the installation of the operating system, if it needs to boot the system
from hard disk after reboot, it must enter the server BIOS for setting to ensure
the starting sequence of hard disk is prior to the starting sequence of U disk and
the system can boot from the disk. If the starting sequence of U disk is prior to the
starting sequence of hard disk, the system will fail to boot from hard disk.
The following introduces the making method for the driver of onboard hard disk
controller when using Inspur driver U disk to install the operating system. For driver
making of external RAID card or SAS card, please refer to the corresponding contents
in the driver CD of external board card.
Make Driver
1. Prepare a set of computer installed with Windows system, and connect the Ins-
pur driver U disk to the USB interface of the computer, as shown in the picture below.
Inspur driver U disk will be identified as two parts: virtual floppy driver [3½ Floppy (A:)]
and normal partition of U disk [Removable Disk (E:)], in which, the disk character E in
[Removable Disk (E:)] will be different according to the actual partitions of your com-
puter.
34

Notes: Before connecting the Inspur driver U disk to the computer, if your
computer is configured with standard floppy, please enter BIOS and close this
standard floppy; if your computer is connected with USB floppy, please first
disconnect USB floppy. It must guarantee that when the Inspur driver U disk is
connected to your computer, the disk character of virtual floppy driver under
Windows system shall be identified to be A:, and only by this can the subsequent
normal driver making be guaranteed.
2. Put the driver CD (Inspur system driver CD and RAID card driver CD) into
optical drive, and the driver making software will operate automatically. If the system
forbids the automatic operation of CD, please enter CD directory and operate dolphin.
bat (Inspur system driver CD) in CD or setup.exe (RAID card driver CD) in CD direc-
tory.
3. Methods for making drivers by using Inspur driver CD:
(1) After operating dolphin.bat documents, the system will enter the interface of
“Welcome to Inspur driver CD”
35

Two methods to enter drive making software main interface, as sollows:

● In the text box below “Please input navigation No.”, input navigation No (check
navigation No. on CD set or name plate), then log in the drive making software main
interface. Click <Exit> to exit the log-in.
● In the drop-down menu below “Please select the machine type” , select the
specific product model (the specific model , please refer to host nameplate label).
(2) After inputting the navigation No. and logging in, enter the main interface of
driver making software, and the main interface is shown in the following picture:
36

(3) After you select the corresponding operating system and the controller driver
to be made according to the actual need, click [Next] button and make corresponding
driver. Different operating systems correspond to different making interfaces and meth-
ods of the driver.
● Driver making of Windows system
When the driver of Windows operating system is made, copy the driver directly
into the virtual floppy drive A: of Inspur driver U disk.
Select the Windows version to be installed and driver to be made, and then click
[Next].
The system will display a prompt as shown in the following picture. Please con-
firm that Inspur driver U disk is well connected. Format the virtual floppy drive A: of
Inspur driver U disk, and then click [OK] to start the driver making.
After the driver making is completed, the system will pop up the window, prompt-
ing “Driver has been completed”. Click <OK> to complete the making of driver.
● Notices for using Inspur driver U disk to load driver under windows system
During the installation of Windows operating system, if the driver of hard disk
controller is loaded by using Inspur driver U disk, entering the interface of disk parti-
tion, Inspur driver U disk will occupy a disk letter. If the disk is not partitioned, U disk
will occupy disk C:. If the disk has other partitions, U disk will occupy other disk letter
(please distinguish according to the actual hard disk partition).
If there are other partitions on the disk, at this moment, it needs to delete all of
them and then create new partitions on the hard disk. The U disk will not occupy disk
letter any more.
37

If the disk is not partitioned, it needs to create one disk partition on the unallocat-
ed space, and then delete this newly created disk partition. And at this time the U disk
will not occupy any disk letter any more. Then create disk partition based on actual
need, and complete the installation of operating system according to the instructions.
Notes: Be sure to distinguish U disk from hard disk, and never delete or for-
mat U disk.

If you are not sure about the cause of a failure and its removal method, please contact
our customer service center for solution.
Notes: When replacing or installing hardware device for the server, you should
disconnect the power cable from the server completely. It is recommended to use the
anti-static wrist strap and to earth-connect the other end to provide electrostatic protec-
tion in dismounting the server.
7.1 Restarting Server

When a failure occurs, please try to restart the machine according to the following
methods first.
Purpose How to operate
Restart the software, clear up system memory and restart the op-
<Ctrl+Alt+Del>
erating system.
Clear up system memory, self-check the POST again and restart
Reset button
the operating system.
Cold boot again, switch off and restart the system power so that
to clear up the system memory, to self-check the POST again, to Power button
restart the operating system and to power up all peripherals again.
7.2 Problems When Starting the Machine

Some problems often occur when the machine is started, generally due to incor-
rect hardware installation and configuration. You may find and solve the problems by
the following methods.
7.2.1 System Can Not Be Powered on
After pressing the power button, the power light is not on and the system stays in
non-electric state. Please try the following steps:
1. Check whether your power socket can supply power normally and the power
cable is correctly connected.

Chapter Seven Common Problems and Trouble-shooting
2. Repeatedly press the power button to start the machine (pay attention not to ex-
erting too much force).
3. Disconnect the power cable from the system and open the chassis to check.
4. Check the fastness of the cable connection and accessory plugging in the chassis.
5. Remove other external components other than Inspur’s.
6. Pack the chassis, connect the power cable correctly and start the machine.
7.2.2 Monitor Has No Display
The server can be powered on (the host can start and run normally), but the moni-
tor doesn’t work:
1. Check the correctness and fastness of the signal cable and power cable con-
nected to the monitor.
2. Make sure to power on the display.
3. Adjust the contrast and brightness of the monitor to confirm whether it can dis-
play or not.
4. Shut down the system and disconnect the power cable to check whether there is
curve in the pin at the connecting end of the monitor signal cable and the host.
5. Find another monitor for test if possible.
6. If the machine is installed with components other than Inspur ones, please re-
move them first.
7. With the permission of Inspur technical support personnel, you may pull and
plug RAM and clear CMOS for test.
7.2.3 Installation System Can’t Find Hard Disk
1. When installing the system directly booted with the system CD, if it prompts
that no hard disk can be found, please check the normality of the disk state and power-
on self-check hard disk state.
2. If the power-on self check can detect the hard disk but the hard disk can’t be
detected when installing the system, it may be caused by the following conditions:
● If you are using the system CD to boot and install the operating system directly,
the hard disk drive is generally added through the floppy driver or Inspur driver U
disk. When using USB floppy driver to add the drive, please set the BIOS first and
close the onboard floppy driver controller. When using Inspur driver U disk to add the
drive, please connect Inspur driver U disk when starting the server.
● Please check whether the driver having been made is correct or not (the drive
for external RAID card should be made directly from the attached RAID card driver
55

CD) and whether there is fault in the floppy disk or Inspur driver U disk.
7.2.4 Instruction of Onboard SATA Controller
If it is configured onboard SATA HostRAID, it only supports windows system of
above Windows XP versions and connects 6 SATA devices at most.
7.2.5 Keyboard and Mouse Do Not Work
1. Check whether the cable joint of the mouse and keyboard is plugged and con-
nected correctly. Make sure the joint pin has no curve.
2. Check whether the mouse setting in the control panel of the operating system is
correct or not.
3. Clean the scrolling and drive shaft of the mouse.
4. It is suggested that you use the keyboard and mouse tested for compatibility by
Inspur group or replace with other keyboard and mouse for testing.
7.2.6 System Blue Screen, Halt or Restart
For blue screen, restart or halt of the machine in the utilization of the system, you
may refer to the following measures:
1. If other external non-Inspur components or some application program software
are installed before the fault, it is suggested removing it and going on to test your serv-
er.
2. Use the latest antivirus software for antivirus test.
3. It is suggested that you record the displayed information code for blue screen,
such as: stop c000000218.....; stop: 0x0000007b. This kind of information reveals prob-
lems in the system. It is suggested that you reinstall it. For the installation process, you
can refer to the user manual.
4. If all above operations failed to solve the problem, it is suggested that you
backup the file winnt/minidump in disk C, and call the service center for support
from professional technical engineers who may ask you to provide minidump file for
further analysis on the cause for blue screen and halt. If there is no minidump folder
in disk C, please refer to the following steps: right-click on My Computer, select
<Property>→<advanced>→<startup and recovery>, then select <settings>, change
<write debugging information> in the next page to “small RAM dump” and restart the
machine. The system will produce minidump file automatically in the next blue screen.
7.3 Machine Alarm

If there’s machine alarm in startup or utilization process, please refer to the fol-
56

lowing measures:
1. If this happens after you plugged in some external board, you may need to pull
off this device and to do another test. If the alarm goes off, it shows that your external
board is incompatible with the machine. It is suggested not to use it any more; if the
alarm is still on, please go on referring to the following steps.
2. Locate the alarm sound:
● When the alarm sound is from the front of the chassis, usually we notice abnor-
mal changes of the fault indicating light. There is the possibility of abnormal fans or
hard disk module;
● If the alarm sound is from the rear of the chassis, please check whether a redun-
dant power supply is configured or not and whether there is an abnormal status light of
the power supply module or a module without power cable (when power alarm goes
on, the shield switch can be pressed to stop it);
● If the alarm sound is in the chassis, the alarm may be from motherboard, RAID
card or hard disk back plane. If it is also accompanied by no display on the monitor or
power on faults, there is high possibility of something wrong with motherboard. You
can try to pull or plug RAM or clear CMOS; if the starting self-check is normal and the
alarm starts when the RAID card is under test, and there is abnormal array information,
then it is likely that the RAID card has set off the alarm. There may be array abnormal-
ity; when the hard disk back plane alarms, there is always abnormal status light of the
hard disk on the front panel, which can be used to help analysis.
3. After having collected the basic information, please feedback the detailed alarm
information to Inspur technical support personnel in a timely manner. We will make
further analysis and judgment and help you solve the problem as soon as possible.
7.4 Additional Notes

1. In order to guarantee the reliability of the system, it is suggested that you use
the component of the relevant Model tested and authenticated by us when expanding
and equipping components.
2. Please guarantee the fine electricity utilization environment of the server, nor-
mal voltage input and earth-connecting condition and temperature and humidity and so
on within the normal range.
3. For special needs, when transferring the server, pay attention to avoiding the
vibration and carry out in power off condition..

4. The out of order problem introduction in Windows Server 2008 system

The phenomenon that the system disk /RAID volume is inconsistent with the
physical disk /RAID volume will appear when this product is in the AHCI mode (with
more than one disks) or HostRAID mode (with more than one RAID volume) of SATA
configuration when installing Windows Server 2008 operating system. This phenom-
enon is the Bug of Windows Server 2008 operating system.
In the AHCI mode, if you want to install the operating system on the first physi-
cal disk, when installing the operating system, you can insert the first disk and pull
out other disks. You can insert other disks after the installation is completed. Or enter
BIOS→SATA Configuration →SATA Port item and set SATA Port3/ Port4/ Port5 item
to [Disabled]. At this time, the system will be installed to the first physical disk. After
the completion of operating system installation, set SATA Port3/Port4/ Port5 item to
[Enabled].
In the HostRAID mode, please record the name of the RAID volume when you
are doing the RAID setting. When installing the operating system, please distinguish
the name of RAID volume so that the operating system can be installed in specified
place.
5. Explanation that the disk array capacity under SATA HostRAID mode is not the
maximum capacity.
This product integrates SATA HostRAID. During the creation of RAID volume,
the system will automatically analyze the size of the physical disk and will automati-
cally adjust the size of the RAID volume to 97% of the minimum physical disk volume.
Because of the different suppliers, physical disk capacity may vary.

Chapter Nine Server Installation Guide
The server can be converted to rack-mounted server. If your server is rack-mount-

ed configuration, please refer to this chapter.
The Guide will help you to understand how to install Inspur Yingxin NP5540M3
server in Inspur server cabinet or compatible standard industrial cabinet.
9.1 Cabinet Preparation

Angle rail adjustment: in order to guarantee the server can be installed in the cabi-
net normally, the clearance between the front and rear part of the angle rail should be
adjusted to be at least larger than 650mm; inner width between left angle rail and right
angle rail should be larger that 480mm, the space between cabinet door and front angle
rail larger than 60mm.
Leveling cabinet: the cabinet must be installed in a stable place. Adjust the four
support feet at the bottom of the cabinet to make the cabinet stable on the ground.
Meanwhile, dismount the cabinet door for convenience of guide rail installation.
Cabinet grounding: to avoid electric shock, a grounding device must be installed
in the cabinet. If the server power line is installed in the power socket, which consti-
tutes a portion of the cabinet, grounding should be properly provided for the cabinet. If
the server power line is inserted into the power socket in the wall, the grounding device
in the power socket just provides grounding for the server, and then proper grounding
protection for cabinet and other internal devices should be provided. We recommend
you to use the cabinet specially designed by Inspur for the server. If so, the internal of
the cabinet should be already grounded. Please don’t change the ground joint in the
cabinet unless it is of absolute necessity.
Temperature: if installed in the cabinet, the operation and working temperature of
the server can’t be lower than 5℃ and higher than 35℃ .
Ventilation: the cabinet used by server cluster must provide enough wind cur-
rent for the front of the server to ventilate, and must ensure 4100Btu heat discharge
per hour. The cabinet selected by the cluster and ventilation condition must correspond
with requirements of the server.
Front and back angle rail spacing: before the rails installation, please adjust the
68

space between cabinet front and back angle rail (mobile rail) according to the depth of
the server.
9.2 Install Server Chassis Handles

1. Take chassis handles and fixed screws out of the package, and install handles
on both sides of chassis.

make inner rail stay close to the chassis. And then completely fix the inner rail into
chassis through 4 round head M4*6 screws based on the location shown in Figure 9.
Figure 9
Repeat the above steps to install the other inner rail into the corresponding place
on other side of the chassis.
9.5 Install Outer Rail to Cabinet

1. Install the long adjustment sheet to the both sides of the outer rail and make the
groove of the long adjustment sheet face to the smooth surface of the out rail. Please
72

according to the depth of the cabinet; adjust the long adjustment sheet on both sides of
the outer rail properly, and then fix it using 4 round head M4*6 screws and flat washers
(used below the screw). The fixing hole position is shown in figure 10. Figure 10 is just
for reference, the actual fixing hole position will be determined according to the depth
of the cabinet.
Figure 10
2. Confirm the installation position of the server on the cabinet.
3. Collocate short adjustment sheet (located in the inner side of the cabinet angle
hole position, one for front, the other for the rear) and fix the front and rear ends of the
outer rail to the cabinet angle rail hole position using 4 round head M5*8 screws, two
screws for both front and rear ends. Please make sure the front and rear part of the
outer rail horizontal, as shown in figure 11.

rear ends of another outer rail and install the outer rail with long adjustment sheet to the
cabinet.
9.6 Install Server to Cabinet

1. Pull the middle rail of the outer rail out fully, then lift the server close to the
cabinet and make the rear of the server face the front of the cabinet.
73

2. Stick the inner rails on both sides of the server on the middle rail groove on the
cabinet outer rails.
3. Keep the server horizontal and push it stably into the cabinet. During the push,
if the serve is stuck, please push the bayonet lock between the inner rail and middle rail
in both sides of the server upward or downward (the directions are opposite on either
side), meanwhile, push the server into the cabinet, as shown in figure 12.
