System Features

This section describes the major hardware and software features of your

system. It also provides information about other documents you may need

when setting up your system and how to obtain technical assistance.

System Enclosure Features

The M1000e system enclosure (chassis) includes the following features:

Scalability Features

• Support for up to 16 half-height or 8 full-height blades (server modules).

• Support for three layers of I/O fabric, selectable between combinations

of Ethernet, Infiniband, and Fibre Channel modules.

Up to six I/O modules may be installed in the enclosure, chosen from Fibre

Channel switches, Fibre Channel passthroughs, Infiniband switches,

Ethernet switches, and Ethernet passthrough modules.

Reliability Features

• Nine redundant, hot-pluggable system fan modules.

• Three 2360-watt, hot-pluggable power supplies and three power supply

blanks, or six 2360-watt, hot-pluggable power supplies. (Three power

supplies provide power to the system; adding three additional power

supplies provides 3+3 redundancy.)

NOTICE: Power supplies can only connect to a power distribution unit (PDU).

They cannot connect directly to an electrical outlet.

NOTICE: The system enclosure requires a 200-240V power source.

4 Getting Started With Your System

Systems Management Features

• A Chassis Management Controller (CMC), which provides several

essential systems management features:

– Enclosure-level power management and thermal management:

• The CMC monitors system power requirements and supports the

optional Dynamic Power Supply Engagement mode so that the

CMC can enable or place power supplies in standby dynamically,

depending on load and redundancy requirements, to improve

power efficiency.

• The CMC reports real-time power consumption.

• The CMC supports an optional power ceiling, which will either

trigger an alert or actions to keep the enclosure power

consumption under the predefined ceiling.

• The CMC monitors and controls cooling fans based on actual

ambient and internal temperature measurements.

– The CMC provides comprehensive enclosure inventory and

status/error reporting.

– The CMC allows centralized configuration of the following settings:

• The CMC’s network and security settings

• Power redundancy and power ceiling settings

• I/O switches and iDRAC network settings

• First boot device on the blades

– The CMC will check I/O fabric consistency between the I/O modules

and blades and will disable system components if necessary to protect

the system hardware.

– User access security.

– An SD card slot on the CMC card supports an optional persistent

WWN/MAC feature that allows slot-based WWN/MACs for the

blades, simplifying blade installation and replacement.

Getting Started With Your System 5

The CMC has two Ethernet ports. "Gb1" is used to connect to the external

management network. "Stack" allows CMCs in adjacent enclosures to be

daisy-chained. A 24-port Ethernet switch provides internal 100-Mb

communication with the blades, I/O modules, optional iKVM, and

optional second, redundant CMC, and provides a 10/100/1000-Mb

connection to the external management network.

NOTE: The 24-port Ethernet switch is reserved for internal communication

between the iDRAC on the blades to the CMC, then to the external

management network.

A second, optional CMC can be installed for hot-plug failover redundancy.

• An enclosure control panel that includes an LCD display which provides

current infrastructure and blade information, and error reporting.

• An optional Avocent integrated Keyboard, Video and Mouse (iKVM)

module, which includes the following features:

– The iKVM maintains all blade connections as input is switched from

each blade.

– Local iKVM access can be remotely disabled on a per blade basis via

the iDRAC user interface.

– One VGA connector.

– Two USB ports for keyboard and mouse connections.

NOTE: USB functionality is contingent on the connection of a video interface,

such as a monitor cable.

– An RJ-45 ACI port for tiering with external Dell and Avocent analog

KVM and KVM over IP switches with ARI ports. The ACI connection

takes precedence over the rear panel KVM ports.

– The iKVM can also be accessed from the control panel in the front of

the enclosure. Either front or rear KVM functionality is supported

(simultaneous functionality is not supported).

NOTE: The front iKVM is enabled by default if contention exists between the

front and rear iKVM ports. Front iKVM access can be disabled via the CMC

user interface.

Installation and Configuration

CAUTION: Before performing the following procedure, read and follow the safety

instructions and important regulatory information that shipped with your system.

For additional safety best practices information, see

www.dell.com/regulatory_compliance.

This section describes the steps required to set up your system for the first

time.

Unpack the System

Unpack your system and identify each item. Keep all shipping materials in

case you need them later.

Getting Started With Your System 11

Install the System in a Rack

Install the system in the rack once you have read the "Safety Instructions"

located in the rack installation documentation for your system.

See your rack installation documentation for instructions on installing your

system in a rack. For power and cooling guidelines, see the rack capacity

planner tool on www.dell.com.

Install the Blades

Beginning at the top, slide the modules into the enclosure from left to right.

When the blade is securely installed, the handle returns to the closed

position.

12 Getting Started With Your System

Connect the CMC and KVM Modules

Connect the serial cable and network cable from the management system to

the CMC module. If a second, optional CMC module is installed, connect it

as well. (If your chassis was shipped with M805 or M905 blades pre-installed,

the included CMC firmware will be version 1.2 or greater.)

Connect the keyboard, mouse, and monitor to the optional iKVM module.

Connect the System to Power

Connect the system’s power cables to the system power supplies.

NOTICE: To prevent the power cables from being disconnected accidentally,

use the plastic clip on each power supply to secure the power cable to the power

supply, and use the Velcro strap to secure the cable to the strain-relief bar.

Next, plug the other end of the power cables into a separate power source

such as an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) or a power distribution unit

(PDU).

Getting Started With Your System 13

Turn on the System

Press the power button on the enclosure. The power indicator should light.

14 Getting Started With Your System

Turn on the Blades

Press the power button on each blade, or power on the blades using

the systems management software.

Complete the 0perating System Setup

If you purchased a preinstalled operating system, see the operating system

documentation that ships with your system. To install an operating system for

the first time, see the Quick Installation Guide. Be sure the operating system

is installed before installing hardware or software not purchased with the
