Introduction  
1-1 Overview  
The SBA-7142G-T4 blade module is a compact self-contained server that connects into  
a pre-cabled enclosure that provides power, cooling, management and networking  
functions. One enclosure for the SBA-7142G-T4 blade module can hold ten blade units.  
In this manual, “blade system” refers to the entire system (including the enclosure and  
blades units), “blade” or “blade unit” refers to a single blade module and “blade  
enclosure” is the chassis that the blades, power supplies and modules are housed in.  
Please refer to our web site for information on operating systems that have been  
certified for use with the SuperBlade (www.supermicro.com/products/superblade/).

Setup and Installation  
3-1 Overview  
This chapter covers the setup and installation of the blade module and its components.  
3-2 Installing Blade Modules  
Up to ten SBA-7142G-T4 blade modules may be installed into a single blade enclosure  
(depending upon your enclosure and blade). Blade modules with Windows and Linux  
operating systems may be mixed together in the same blade enclosure.  
Powering Up a Blade Unit  
Each blade unit may be powered on and off independently from the rest of the blades  
installed in the same enclosure. A blade unit may be powered up in two ways:  
Press the power button on the blade unit.  
Use IPMIView or the web-browser based management utility to apply power using  
either a CMM module, or by the use of the onboard BMC chip in the blade module.  
Powering Down a Blade Unit  
A blade unit may be powered down in either of five ways:  
Press the power button on the blade unit.  
Use IPMIView or the web-browser based management utility to power down (if you  
have Operator or Admin privileges on the CMM).  
Use IPMItool when connected to the CMM to power down (if you have Operator or  
Admin privileges on the CMM).  
Removing a Blade Unit from the Enclosure  
Although the blade system may continue to run, individual blades should always be  
powered down before removing them from the enclosure.  
Removing a Blade Unit from the Enclosure  
1. Power down the blade unit (see "Powering Down a Blade Unit" above).  
2. Squeeze both handles to depress the red sections then pull out both handles  
completely and use them to pull the blade unit from the enclosure.  
NOTE: Blade Modules can be Hot-Plugged from the enclosure.

SBA-7142G-T4 Blade Module User’s Manual  
Removing/Replacing the Blade Cover  
The blade cover must be removed to access the mainboard when you need to install or  
remove processors, memory units, the onboard battery and so on.  
Removing/Replacing the Blade Cover  
1. Remove the blade unit from the enclosure (see "Removing a Blade Unit from the  
Enclosure" above).  
2. Depress the two buttons on the cover while pushing the cover toward the rear of the  
blade unit. When it stops, lift the cover off the blade unit.  
3. To replace the cover, fit the six grooves in the cover into the studs in the sides of the  
blade, then slide the cover toward the front of the blade to lock it into place.  
Installing a Blade Unit into the Enclosure  
Make sure the cover of the blade unit has been replaced first before installing a blade  
unit in the enclosure.  
Installing a Blade Unit into the Enclosure  
1. Slowly push the blade unit into its bay with the handles fully pulled out (see  
Figure 3-1).  
2. When the blade stops, push the handles back in to their locked position, making  
sure the notches in both handles catch the lip of the enclosure (see Figure 3-2).  
NOTE: Blade Modules can be Hot-Plugged into the enclosure.  
WARNING: Use extreme caution when inserting a blade module into the enclosure. If  
the blade's power connector becomes damaged, it can damage pins on other blade bays  
that it is inserted into.

3-3 Processor Installation  
One to four 1944-pin G34 socket AMD Opteron 6100 series processors may be installed  
to the mainboard of the blade module. See Chapter 1 for general information on the  
features of the blade unit and the Supermicro web site for further details including  
processor, memory and operating system support.  
WARNING: This action should only be performed by a trained service technician. Allow the  
processor heatsink to cool before removing it.  
Removing a Processor  
1. Power down and remove the blade unit from the enclosure (see Section 3-2:  
Installing Blade Modules on page 3-1 for details).  
2. Remove the cover of the blade unit (see "Removing/Replacing the Blade Cover" on  
page 3-2).  
3. Loosen the two screws that secure the heatsink to the mainboard.  
4. Remove the heatsink by gently rotating it back-and-forth sideways with your fingers  
to release it from the processor. Set the heatsink aside and upside-down so that  
nothing comes into contact with the thermal grease on its underside.  
5. Raise the lever of the processor socket up until the processor is released from the  
socket, then lift the silver cover plate and remove the processor.  
WARNING: This action should only be performed by a trained service technician.  
Installing a Processor  
1. If present, remove the protective black PnP cap from the processor socket.  
2. Raise the lever of the processor socket until it reaches its upper limit.  
3. Lift the silver cover plate completely up and out of the way.  
NOTE: Be careful not to damage the pins protruding from the CPU socket.  
4. Align pin 1 of the processor with pin 1 of the socket (both are marked with a small  
gold triangle) and gently seat the processor into the socket (Figure 3-3).  
5. Check to make sure the processor is flush to the socket and fully seated.  
6. Lower the socket lever until it locks.  
7. To install the heatsink, apply thermal grease to the top of the processor. (If  
reinstalling a heatsink, first clean off the old thermal grease with a clean, lint-free  
cloth.)  
8. Place the heatsink on the processor then tighten one screw until snug, then the  
other screw.  
9. When both screws are snug, tighten them down to secure the heatsink to the  
mainboard.  
NOTE: Do not overtighten the screws as this may damage the processor or the heatsink.

3-4 Onboard Battery Installation  
A battery is included on the mainboard to supply certain volatile memory components  
with power when power has been removed from the blade module. If this battery dies, it  
must be replaced with an equivalent CR2032 Lithium 3V battery. Dispose of used  
batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions. See Figure 3-4 for a diagram of  
installing a new onboard battery.  
WARNING: There is a danger of explosion if the onboard battery is installed upside down,  
which reverses its polarities.  
Figure 3-4. Installing the Onboard Battery  
Lithium Battery  
Battery Holder  
3-5 Memory Installation  
The mainboard of each blade unit must be populated with DIMMs (Dual In-line Memory  
Modules) to provide system memory. The DIMMs should all be of the same size and  
speed and from the same manufacturer to avoid compatibility issues. See details  
below on supported memory and our web site (www.supermicro.com/products/  
superblade for recommended memory.  
3-5  
 
         
SBA-7142G-T4 Blade Module User’s Manual  
Populating Memory Slots  
The mainboard of a SBA-7142G-T4 blade module has 16 memory slots. Both  
interleaved and non-interleaved memory are supported, so you may populate any  
number of DIMM slots.  
Populating slots at the same time with memory modules of the same size and of the  
same type will result in four-channel, interleaved memory, which is faster than  
single-channel, non-interleaved memory. See Table 3-1 and Figure 3-5 for details.  
WARNING: For an interleaved configuration, memory modules of the same size and  
speed must be installed. You should not mix DIMMs of different sizes and speeds.  
NOTE: The DIMM slot number specified in Table 3-1 equals the DIMM slot to be populated.  
A “---” indicates that the DIMM slot should be left unpopulated. DIMMs for one board are P1/  
P2 and P3/P4 for the other board.  
NOTE: Though multiple DIMM memory module types and speeds may be supported, you  
need to use DIMM memory modules of the same speed and type.

3-6 Hard Disk Drive Installation  
Hard disk drives are installed in “carriers” which are hot-swappable and can be removed  
or replaced without powering down the blade unit they reside in. A blade module needs  
a hard disk drive with an operating system installed to operate.  
WARNING: To maintain proper airflow, all hard drive bays must have drive carriers inserted  
during operation whether or not a drive is installed in the carrier.  
Removing a Hard Drive Carrier  
To remove a hard drive carrier, do the following:  
Removing a Hard Drive Carrier  
1. Locate the colored “Open” button at the bottom of the drive carrier and press it with  
your thumb. This action releases the drive carrier from the drive bay.  
2. Pull the release handle out about 45-degrees, then use it to pull the drive carrier out.  
Installing a Hard Drive  
To Install a hard drive, use the following procedure:  
Installing a Hard Drive  
1. Remove a blank drive carrier from the blade (see removal procedure above).  
2. Insert a 2.5” drive into the carrier with the PCB side facing down and the connector  
end toward the rear of the carrier.  
3. Align the drive in the carrier so that the screw holes of both line up. Note that there  
are holes in the carrier marked “SATA” to aid in correct installation.  
4. Secure the drive to the carrier with four screws as shown in Figure 3-7: "Installing a  
Hard Drive in a Carrier" on page 3-11.  
5. Insert the drive carrier into its slot keeping the Open button at the bottom. When the  
carrier reaches the rear of the bay the release handle will retract.  
6. Push the handle in until you hear the carrier click into its locked position.

SBA-7142G-T4 Blade Module User’s Manual  
3-7 Installing the Operating System  
An operating system (OS) must be installed on each blade module. Blades with  
Microsoft Windows OS and blades with Linux OS can both occupy and operate within  
the same blade enclosure. Refer to the SuperMicro web site for a complete list of  
supported operating systems.  
There are several methods of installing an OS to the blade modules.  
Installing with an External USB CD-ROM Drive  
The most common method of installing the OS is with an external USB CD-ROM drive.  
Take the following steps to install the OS to a blade module:  
WARNING: Installing the OS from an external CD-ROM drive may take several hours to  
complete.  
1. Connect an SUV cable (Serial port/USB port/Video port cable) to the KVM  
connector on the front of the blade module. You will then need to attach a USB hub  
to the USB port on this cable to provide multiple USB ports.  
2. Connect the external CD-ROM drive, a USB keyboard and a mouse to the USB hub.  
You will also need to connect a monitor to the video connector on the SUV cable.  
Turn on the blade module.  
3. Insert the CD containing the OS into the CD-ROM drive.  
4. Follow the prompts to begin the installation.  
Installing via PXE Boot  
PXE (Preboot Execution Environment) is used to boot a computer over a network. To  
install the OS via PXE, the following conditions must be met:  
1. The PXE BOOT option in BIOS must be enabled.  
2. A PXE server has been configured (this can be another blade in the system).  
3. The PXE server must be connected over a network to the blade to be booted.  
4. The blade has only non-partitioned/unformatted hard drives installed and no  
bootable devices attached to it.  
Once these conditions are met, make sure the PXE server is running. Then turn on the  
blade on which you wish to boot and/or install the OS. The BIOS in the blade will look at  
all bootable devices and finding none will connect to the PXE server to begin the boot/  
install.  
Installing via Virtual Media (Drive Redirection)  
You can install the OS via Virtual Media through either the IPMIview (Java based client  
utility), SMCIPMItool or the Web-based Management Utility. With this method, the OS is  
installed from an ISO image that resides on another system/blade.  
3-12  
 
       
Chapter 3: Setup and Installation  
Refer to the manuals on your SuperBlade CD-ROM for further details on the Virtual  
Media (CD-ROM or Drive Redirection) sections of these two utility programs.  
3-8 Management Software  
System management may be performed with either of three software packages:  
IPMIview, SMCIPMItool or a Web-based Management Utility. These are designed to  
provide an administrator with a comprehensive set of functions and monitored data to  
keep tabs on the system and perform management activities.  
Refer to the manuals on your SuperBlade CD-ROM for further details on the various  
functions provided by these management programs.  
3-9 Configuring and Setting up RAID  
Each blade module that supports two or more hard drives may be used to create a RAID  
array. The procedures for doing this vary depending upon the blade model chosen for  
your SuperBlade system.  
For RAID setup see http://www.supermicro.com/support/manuals/ under RAID  
Installation Guides for more details.

BIOS Message  
Previous POST did not complete successfully. POST loads  
default values and offers to run Setup. If the failure was caused  
by incorrect values and they are not corrected, the next boot  
will likely fail. On systems with control of wait states, improper  
Setup settings can also terminate POST and cause this error  
on the next boot. Run Setup and verify that the waitstate  
configuration is correct. This error is cleared the next time the  
system is booted.

A-2 BIOS POST Codes  
This section lists the POST (Power-On Self-Test) codes for the AMI BIOS. POST codes  
are divided into two categories: recoverable and terminal.  
Recoverable POST Errors  
When a recoverable type of error occurs during POST, the BIOS will display an POST  
code that describes the problem. BIOS may also issue one of the following beep codes:  
One long and two short beeps – video configuration error  
One repetitive long beep – no memory detected  
Terminal POST Errors  
If a terminal type of error occurs, BIOS will shut down the system. Before doing so,  
BIOS will write the error to port 80h, attempt to initialize video and write the error in the  
top left corner of the screen.  
The following is a list of codes that may be written to port 80h.  
Uncompressed Initialization Codes  
The uncompressed initialization checkpoint codes are listed in order of execution in  
table Table A-2.
