RAID module RMS25JB080 ESXi drivers

Hi

 

cant find the VMWare ESXi drivers for the RMS25JB080 RAID module? (it will be in an S1200SPOR board which is fully VMWare supported)

 

Ive had some real major issues with ALL RAID board with ESXi, the only way to get them to fully work is to install the below:

 

RAID drivers, AND the SMIS drivers, with both install the module will show up in the ESXi vSphere console with what drive is attached to which connector on the board.

 

Also should allow for the Intel RAID configuration tool to connect to the board when its running ESXi to configure it, check drive status via the ESXi management IP address.  This has been a MAJOR MAJOR issue for LSI / AVAGO / BROADCOM (what ever there calling themselves now-a-days) RAID cards, i have the drivers here for them now so i dont need to go hunting for them.

 

However i have never done ESXi for Intel RAID cards yet (as there not really LSI / AVAGO / BROADCOM cards now... there a hybrid version.

 

Many Thanks.

Intel H2312JFJR - hardisks are not recognized

Hi,

I bought an intel H2312JFJR system which came with 12 SCSI drives (2TB) and  four HNS2600JF Server Nodes.

When I first powered up the system, I noticed that non of the 12 hard disks is flashing any status light and when I get into the BIOS setup, no harddisk appeared in the boot order menu. This is the case for all the 4 nodes.

I tried to install a hypervisor (Xenserver) from the flash drive and it also confirmed that it could not find any drives. The only way I managed to get a node up and running is by using a flash drive with live Linux image.

I do not have any experience in Intel servers so I am not sure how to proceed.

What would cause all the 12 drives not working despite being a 4 node system with redundancy? and how should I proceed to further diagnose the problem ?

Regards,

Mishal

Hi,

 

I would simply like to know if it is possible to Install an OS on an Intel S2600CW motherboard's M.2/NGFF slot's drive. If it is, what options do I need to enable in the BIOS for the OS installation to see the drive as an installation destination?

S5520HC EFI Optimized Boot

Hi,

I have difficulties with EFI Boot.

Long story short:

Having BIOS revision R0064 I'm trying to boot OS V 10.11 El Capitan.

The process is trail/error, so I need an easy way to change the BIOS Boot mode between MBR/EFI.

It is because I'm not sure I have proper disk for EFI boot, although I've got an OS X 10.11 installed on the machine and it doesn't boot in MBR mode, but if I set EFI Optimized Boot and try to boot my installation I don't have an success. The error code is 0xD6 - Trying boot selection.

The worst thing is I don't have an access to the BIOS Set Up at all so, I have to recover or update the BIOS to get the system working.

 

Any ideas?

Thanks.

How do I update the BIOS on a very old S2600CP motherboard?

Hi,

 

I've just been given an ancient, refurbished S2600CP2J motherboard complete with CPUs and RAM and would like to get it fully working again.

 

The obvious first step is to update the BIOS but the oldest EFI update package available (01.02.003) states that I need to have at least version 01.01.1002 before starting or "the update process may render the system not operatable!"

 

According to the BIOS screen, my system is currently SE5C600.86B.99.99.x034, build date 08/23/2011.

 

As I have no wish to kill the system before I get started, is there any way of upgrading it to 01.01.1002 as a minimum?

 

Thanks.

I have Intel Server Board S2600CP in Intel Server Chassis P4000S with 5 fan coolers. Server two year worked correctly. But, one weak ago, 5 fan coolers started working too fast and too load. Installed one processor - Xeon E5-2603, and her temperature about 30 C.

I upgrade BIOS on last firmware: BIOS - 02.06.0005, ME - 02.01.07.328, BMC - 01.27.9958, FRUSDR - 1.11. During upgrade i set Chassis serial number, Chassis part number, System serial number and System part number correctly.

In BIOS settings set parameters: Set Throttling Mode - [Auto], Altitude -[300m or less], Set Fan Profile - [Acoustic]. For tests i set various parameters in BIOS, but 5 fan coolers worked very fast and very load all time.

Ask me please, how to diagnostic and correctly configure my server.

 

Thanks.

S5000XSL/PSL not booting with dual CPU, works fine with one.

So! I know, this is an old board and interactive support has ended long ago, but if there is anybody out there who could give me some advice I'd really appreciate it.

 

So! I bought this board from a guy on my local buy/sell page, it came just bare. I got 32Gb of FB-DIMM DDR2-667, and two Xeon 5160s and two Xeon X5355s, checking the datasheet for the board to verify that they'll work. I drop in my ram, two CPUs, custom brackets for my Hyper 212 Evo coolers, hard drive, peripherals, and PSU. I turn it on by jumping the appropriate headers, it turns on for a second or so, fans turn, no post codes yet, and then it just quits. Shuts right off. Status LED stays solid green, no post codes happened at all, and no beep codes. Does it for both types of CPU I got. If I just put one CPU into the first socket, it works! Works well too. Posts, no issues, I install my OS, and I'm off to the races. Only half as fast as I could be.

 

So I start checking things:

  • I check both socket's pins, all perfect, not a single one out of line.
  • I check both CPUs, by putting one into the first socket, and booting, and then the other in the first socket, and it boots just fine, no codes.
  • I check if my PSU is going overcurrent, by putting an oscilloscope on the PS_ON pin and the 12v power rail to the CPU VRMs. PS_ON goes high (Shutting the PSU off) before the 12v power rail even twitches. It stays rock solid. It's the motherboard that's shutting itself off for sure.
  • I take out all the ram, peripherals, and fans. It'll still attempt to post without ram, but it'll fail. It still doesn't reach post, just quits.
  • Updated the BMC and BIOS, nope.

Bricked S2600G(L/Z)?

Hi Guys,

 

So i was trying to upgrade firmware on my server.

I ran flashupdt -u  <package folder name>\flashupdt.cfg and went away when it was "Upgrading HBSP and PSU firmware..."

After i came back the server was running - fans were spinning but no signal on the screen. I left it running for couple of minutes but there was no change so i rebooted the server - it didn't come back.

System Status LED is solid Amber and 2nd,3rd green POST LED is on which means: 06h Early CPU initialisation during Sec Phase. and it stays like that forever.

I tried to swap CPUs, run with only one CPU (both CPUs tested) and the error is always the same.

 

Then i tried to flash using BIOS Recovery Procedure and i'm getting 1st,4th green LED on and 1st,2nd,3rd,4th Amber LED ON with 2 Beeps and 4 Beeps in the background.

I also tried different CPU configuration and nothing helps.

The only difference i see (i think so) is when i have USB drive inserted and not inserted.

When there's no USB Mass Storage beeps happens so quickly as described in the manual but when i insert the USB there's 1 second break between each set of beeps. Maybe i'm doing something wrong?

 

Does it means i bricked motherboard?

Intel SSD P3520 1.2TB

Hi,

 

Would an Intel SSD P3520 1.2TB drive - PCi-e 3.0 (4x) fit a 2U case and is it compatible with an intel 2600CW2S motherboard? I see the motherboard only has PCIe Gen III x8, and PCIe Gen III x16 slots.

 

In other words are PCIe Gen III x8 and PCIe Gen III x16 compatible (both technically and physically) with the lower speed PCIe Gen III x4 drive?

 

Also do I understand correctly that the form factor of the hard drive (HHHL (CEM2.0)) means it would be able to fit a 2U server?

 

Thanks in advance.

S1200SPL (DBS1200SPL) - Questions about technical specifications

Hi,

 

I hope I'm posting my questions in the right location, I am about to purchase a couple of S1200SPL (DBS1200SPL) boards.

 

Curiously these are the only motherboards on the entire market that fit absolutely every single hardware criterion I have - unfortunately I was unable to find some technical details about this model, I already checked the following pages:

Intel® Server Board S1200SPL

 

1) Does this motherboard support the Core i3-6100 CPU? I was only able to locate i3-6300T and i3-6320 on the lists but it would be rather strange if the UEFI of a motherboard by the CPU's manufacturer itself would only support select 6th-generation Core i3 CPUs (that are in the same TDP class).

 

2) Some of the motherboards are to be used in workstation systems that are not running 24/7, does the UEFI support:

 

a) S3 - Suspend to RAM

b) S4 - Hibernate

c) "Deep Sleep" in S4+S5, also known as "EuP/ErP ready"

 

3) Since the model seems to be EOL - are there any details about a sucessor that also supports Kaby Lake CPUs?

 

Thank you very much for your help!

BIOS Update Intel S2600CP2J Bricked?

I attempted to do the update package (Sept 21, 2016) which includes System BIOS 20.06.0005, ME firmware 02.01.07.328, BMC firmware 01.27.9958, and FRUSDR 1.11. As each component was installed, it confirmed that it was successful.

 

On reboot, a short flash screen appears, showing only a few lines and showing the system BIOS is 02.06.0005 and Platform ID: S2600CP. There is no opportunity to go into the BIOS, and I am stuck on this short screen.

 

I next tried to follow the BIOS recovery procedure. The first surprise was that the BIOS recovery jumper was already on pins 2-3 (recovery setting) and not pins 1-2 (default). With the recovery media on a usb stick, I tried recovery leaving the pins as they were, with no effect on reboot. I then tried again treating pins 1-2 as the recovery setting instead of being default, again with no result. Leaving the jumper at pins 1-2, I removed the recovery media, and tried again, and this time it complained that no recovery media was found. Rebooting again with the recovery media reinserted, and still with the jumper on pins 1-2, nothing but that same short screen.
