The slide rails for the Sun Fire X2250 server are compatible with a wide range of

equipment racks that meet the following standards:

■Four-post structure (mounting at both front and rear). Two-post racks are not

compatible.

■Rack horizontal opening and unit vertical pitch conforming to ANSI/EIA 310-D-

1992 or IEC 60927 standards.

■Distance between front and rear mounting planes of 610 mm and 915 mm

(24 inches to 36 inches).

■Clearance depth (to front cabinet door) in front of front rack mounting plane at

least 25.4 mm (1 inch).

■Clearance depth (to rear cabinet door) behind front rack mounting plane at least

800 mm (31.5 inches) with the cable management arm, or 700 mm (27.5 inches),

without the cable management arm.

4Sun Fire X2250 Server Installation Guide • May 2008

■Clearance width (between structural supports and cable troughs) between front

and rear mounting planes at least 456 mm (18 inches).

Caution – Always load equipment into a rack from the bottom up so that the rack

will not become top-heavy and tip over. Deploy your rack’s anti-tilt bar to prevent

the rack from tipping during equipment installation.

Caution – Ensure that the temperature in the rack does not exceed the server’s

maximum ambient rated temperatures. Consider the total airflow requirements of all

equipment installed in the rack, to ensure that the equipment is operated within its

specified temperature range.

Connecting the Cables

See FIGURE 1-2 and TABLE 1-1 for the locations of the connectors.

▼To Connect the Cables

Connect the server and external devices as follows:

1. Connect a serial null modem cable to the serial port.

The default serial port speed is 9600 baud with no flow control.

2. Connect Ethernet cables to the RJ-45 LAN Gigabit Ethernet connectors as

needed (see FIGURE 1-2).

Note the following guidelines regarding the Ethernet (LAN) ports:

■The Network Management (NET MGT) Ethernet port or the Serial Management /

RS-232-F RJ-45 serial port can be used for server management and network access.

See “Setting Up the Sun Fire X2250 Server Software” on page 13 for additional

information about setting up the service processor for remote system

management.

■The two Gigabit Ethernet ports (LAN-0 and LAN-1) are the primary network

interface controllers (NICs) and should be used for network installation of the

operating system and drivers.

Chapter 1 Setting Up the Sun Fire X2250 Server Hardware 5

3. Connect any additional external devices to the server’s other connectors.

FIGURE 1-2 Back Panel

▼To Apply Standby Power for Initial Service

Processor Configuration

Use this procedure to apply standby power to the service processor (SP) before initial

configuration.

Caution – Do not operate the server without all fans, component heatsinks, air baffles,

and the cover installed. Severe damage to server components can occur if operated

without adequate cooling mechanisms.

1. Connect a grounded AC power cord to the AC power connector on the back

panel of the server and to a grounded AC power outlet.

In standby power mode, the Power/OK LED on the front panel flashes,

indicating that the SP is receiving power. See FIGURE 1-3 and TABLE 1-2.

FIGURE 1-3 Front Panel

2. Continue with initial software setup tasks, as described in Chapter 2.

Chapter 1 Setting Up the Sun Fire X2250 Server Hardware 7

Note – At this point, standby power is supplied only to the service processor and power

supply fans. You can proceed to Chapter 2 of this guide to begin initial configuration. Do

not apply main power to the rest of the server until you are ready to install a platform

operating system.

▼To Power On Main Power Mode

To power on main power for all server components:

1. Verify that the power cord has been connected and that standby power is on.

In standby power mode, the Power/OK LED on the front panel flashes. See

FIGURE 1-3.

2. Use a non-metallic stylus to press and release the recessed Power button on the

server front panel.

When main power is applied to the full server, the Power/OK LED next to the

Power button lights and remains lit.

Note – The first time the server powers on, the power-on self-test (POST) can take

up to a minute to complete.

▼To Power Off Main Power Mode

To power off the server from main power mode, use one of the following two

methods:

■Graceful shutdown: Use a non-metallic stylus to press and release the Power

button on the front panel. This causes Advanced Configuration and Power

Interface (ACPI) enabled operating systems to perform an orderly shutdown of

the operating system. Servers not running ACPI-enabled operating systems will

shut down to standby power mode immediately.

■Emergency shutdown: Press and hold the Power button for four seconds to force

main power off and enter standby power mode. When the main power is off, the

Power/OK LED on the front panel will begin flashing, indicating that the server

is in standby power mode.

Caution – To completely power off the server, you must disconnect the AC power cords

from the back panel of the server.

Setup Troubleshooting and Support

This section contains information to help you troubleshoot minor server problems.

It includes the following topics:

■“Troubleshooting the Sun Fire X2250 Server Setup” on page 8.

■“Contacting Support” on page 10

Troubleshooting the Sun Fire X2250 Server Setup

If you experience problems while setting up your server, refer to the troubleshooting

information in TABLE 1-3.

TABLE 1-3 Troubleshooting Procedures

Problem Possible Solution

Server powers on, but

the monitor does not.

• Is the Power button for the monitor turned on?

• Is the monitor power cord connected to a wall outlet?

• Does the wall outlet have power? Test by plugging in another

device.

CD or DVD does not

eject from the media

tray when you press

the Eject button.

• Move the mouse or press any key on the keyboard. The drive

might be in low power mode.

• Use the utility software installed on your server to eject the CD.

• Ensure that the media in the device is not in use and is not

mounted by the operating system.

No video is displayed

on the monitor

screen.

• Is the monitor cable attached to the video connector?

• Does the monitor work when connected to another system?

• If you have another monitor, does it work when connected to the

original system?

• If, after POST and BIOS complete, you no longer see video output

on your monitor and only see a flashing cursor, check the

configuration of the operating system to determine whether it is

configured to redirect its output exclusively over the serial line.

Chapter 1 Setting Up the Sun Fire X2250 Server Hardware 9

Note – For additional troubleshooting information, see the Sun Fire X2250 Server

Service Manual (820-4593).

Server does not

power on when the

front panel Power

button is pressed.

Keep notes on the following situations in case you need to call Sun

service:

• Is the Power/OK LED illuminated on the front of the system?

(Ensure that the power cord is connected to the system and to a

grounded power receptacle.)

• Does the wall outlet have power? Test by plugging in another

device.

• Does the monitor sync within five minutes after power on? (The

green LED on the monitor stops flashing and remains illuminated.)

Keyboard or mouse

does not respond to

actions.

• Verify that the mouse and keyboard cables are connected to the on-

board USB 2.0 connectors on the server.

• Verify that the server is powered on and the front Power/OK LED

is illuminated.

Server appears to be

in low power mode,

but the Power/OK

LED does not blink.

The Power/OK LED only blinks when all server components are in

low power mode. A tape drive might be connected to your server.

Because tape drives do not enter low power mode, the Power/OK

LED does not blink.

Server is hung or

frozen: No response

from mouse or

keyboard or any

application.

Try to access your system from a different server on the network:

1. On another system, type ping IP_address_of_X2250

2. If a response is returned, then try logging in to the Sun Fire X2250

server using either telnet,ssh or rlogin.

3. If you successfully log in, list the running processes using the ps

command.

4. Kill any processes that appear unresponsive or should not be

running, by using the kill process_ID command.

5. Check the responsiveness of the Sun Fire X2250 server after each

process is killed.

If the above procedure does not work, power cycle the server:

1. Press the Power button to power off the server and wait 20 to 30

seconds.

2. Press the Power button again to power on the system.
