About This Manual

This manual is written for system integrators, PC technicians and

knowledgeable PC users. It provides information for the installation and use of the

H8DGU-LN4F+ serverboard.

The H8DGU-LN4F+ serverboard is based on the AMD® SR5690/SP5100 chipset

and supports one AMD Socket G34 type processor with up to 128 GB of ECC/Non-

ECC Unbuffered or 768 GB of ECC Registered DIMM in 24 slots.

Please refer to the motherboard speciﬁ cations pages on our web site for updates on

supported processors (http://www.supermicro.com/aplus/). This product is intended

to be professionally installed.

Manual Organization

Chapter 1 includes a checklist of what should be included in your motherboard

box, describes the features, speciﬁ cations and performance of the motherboard

and provides detailed information about the chipset.

Chapter 2 begins with instructions on handling static-sensitive devices. Read this

chapter when installing the processor(s) and memory modules and when installing

the motherboard in a chassis. Also refer to this chapter to connect the hard disk

drives, the various ports, and the power and reset buttons and the system LEDs.

If you encounter any problems, see Chapter 3, which describes troubleshooting

procedures for the video, the memory and the setup conﬁ guration stored in CMOS.

For quick reference, a general FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) section is

provided. Instructions are also included for contacting technical support. In addition,

you can visit our web site for more detailed information.

Chapter 4 includes an introduction to BIOS and provides detailed information on

running the CMOS Setup utility.

Appendix A provides BIOS Error Beep Code Messages.

Appendix B lists BIOS POST Checkpoint Codes.

H8DGU-LN4F+ Serverboard User’s Manual

1-4 Chipset Overview

The H8DGU-LN4F+ serverboard is based on the AMD SR5690/SP5100 chipset. This

chipset functions as a Media and Communications Processor (MCP). Controllers for

the system memory are integrated directly into AMD Opteron processors.

AMD SR5690/SP5100 Chipset

The AMD SR5690/SP5100 are each a single-chip, high-performance HyperTransport

peripheral controller. It includes a 42-lane PCI Express interface, an AMD Opteron

16-bit Hyper Transport interface link, a six-port Serial ATA interface and a seven-port

USB 2.0 interface. This hub connects directly to the CPU.

HyperTransport Technology

HyperTransport technology is a high-speed, low latency point to point link that was

designed to increase the communication speed by a factor of up to 48x between

integrated circuits. This is done partly by reducing the number of buses in the

chipset to reduce bottlenecks and by enabling a more efﬁ cient use of memory

in multi-processor systems. The end result is a signiﬁ cant increase in bandwidth

within the chipset.

1-5 PC Health Monitoring

This section describes the PC health monitoring features of the H8DGU-LN4F+

serverboard. The serverboard has an onboard System Hardware Monitor chip that

supports PC health monitoring.

Onboard Voltage Monitors

The onboard voltage monitor will continuously scan crucial voltage levels. Once

a voltage becomes unstable, it will give a warning or send an error message to

the screen. Users can adjust the voltage thresholds to deﬁ ne the sensitivity of the

voltage monitor. Real time readings of these voltage levels are all displayed in BIOS.

Fan Status Monitor with Firmware/Software Speed Control

The PC health monitor can check the RPM status of the cooling fans. The onboard

fans are controlled by thermal management via BIOS.

Chapter 1: Introduction

1-11

CPU Overheat/Fan Fail LED and Control

This feature is available when the user enables the CPU overheat/Fan Fail warning

function in the BIOS. This allows the user to deﬁ ne an overheat temperature. When

this temperature is exceeded or when a fan failure occurs, the Overheat/Fan Fail

warning LED is triggered.

Auto-Switching Voltage Regulator for the CPU Core

The 5+1-phase-switching voltage regulator for the CPU core can support up to

AMD Opteron 6000SE series processors and auto-sense voltage IDs ranging from

0.8 V to 1.55V. This will allow the regulator to run cooler and thus make the system

more stable.

1-6 Power Conﬁ guration Settings

This section describes the features of your motherboard that deal with power and

power settings.

Microsoft OnNow

The OnNow design initiative is a comprehensive, system-wide approach to system

and device power control. OnNow is a term for a PC that is always on but appears

to be off and responds immediately to user or other requests.

Slow Blinking LED for Suspend-State Indicator

When the CPU goes into a suspend state, the chassis power LED will start blinking

to indicate that the CPU is in suspend mode. When the user presses any key, the

CPU will wake-up and the LED will automatically stop blinking and remain on.

BIOS Support for USB Keyboard

If a USB keyboard is the only keyboard in the system, it will function like a normal

keyboard during system boot-up.

1-12

H8DGU-LN4F+ Serverboard User’s Manual

Main Switch Override Mechanism

The power button can function as a system suspend button. When the user

depresses the power button, the system will enter a SoftOff state. The monitor

will be suspended and the hard drive will spin down. Depressing the power button

again will cause the whole system to wake-up. During the SoftOff state, the power

supply provides power to keep the required circuitry in the system alive. In case the

system malfunctions and you want to turn off the power, just depress and hold the

power button for 4 seconds. The power will turn off and no power will be provided

to the motherboard.

1-7 Power Supply

As with all computer products, a stable power source is necessary for proper and

reliable operation. It is even more important for processors that have high CPU

clock rates.

The H8DGU-LN4F+ serverboard requires the use of proprietary power supplies.

Please refer to the pinout information for the power connectors in Section 6 of

Chapter 2 for detailed information on power requirements.

In areas where noisy power transmission is present, you may choose to install a

line ﬁ lter to shield the computer from noise. It is recommended that you also install

a power surge protector to help avoid problems caused by power surges.

Warning: To prevent the possibility of explosion, do not use the wrong type of

onboard CMOS battery or install it upside down.

1-8 Super I/O

The disk drive adapter functions of the Super I/O Winbond® BMC chip includes a

data separator, write pre-compensation circuitry, decode logic, data rate selection,

a clock generator, drive interface control logic and interrupt and DMA logic. The

wide range of functions integrated onto the Super I/O greatly reduces the number

of components required for interfacing with ﬂ oppy disk drives.

The Super I/O provides two high-speed, 16550 compatible serial communication

ports (UARTs), one of which supports serial infrared communication. Each UART

includes a 16-byte send/receive FIFO, a programmable baud rate generator,

complete modem control capability and a processor interrupt system. Both UARTs

provide legacy speed with baud rate of up to 115.2 Kbps as well as an advanced

speed with baud rates of 250 K, 500 K, or 1 Mb/s, which support higher speed

modems.

Chapter 1: Introduction

1-13

The Super I/O provides functions that comply with ACPI (Advanced Conﬁ guration

and Power Interface), which includes support of legacy and ACPI power management

through a SMI or SCI function pin. It also features auto power management to reduce

power consumption.

The IRQs, DMAs and I/O space resources of the Super I/O can be ﬂ exibly adjusted

to meet ISA PnP requirements, which support ACPI and APM (Advanced Power

Management).
