Many of the procedures in this chapter require the removal of the top cover, a frame rail, or a support bracket in order to access the internal components you are removing or replacing. This section describes how to remove and replace these items.
Use the following steps to open the cover:
To remove the module's top cover and access the internal system components, remove the ten Phillips screws as shown in Figure 4-1.
Lift the hinged cover into the fully open position.
If you are installing a card in one of the two lower-most card slots (or the bottom card, in the case of an XG2N module), you will need to remove the optional chassis rail. To do this, unscrew the five Phillips screws, as shown in Figure 4-2. (If you are not installing a card into one of the lower-most card slots, or your module is not slide-rail mounted, you will not need to perform this step.)
 | Caution: The module may or may not have a factory-installed IO10 card, which always comes installed in the lowermost slot. To prevent damage to your system, only a trained SGI service support engineer can install or remove an IO10 card. |
If you are accessing one of the two lower-most card slots (or the bottom card, in the case of an XG2N module), you must remove the lower PCI/PCI–X support bracket that covers the two lower-most slots. To do this remove the four Phillips screws, as shown in Figure 4-3. (If you are not installing a card into one of the lower-most card slots you will not need to perform this step.)
If you removed the PCI/PCI-X support bracket, replace it and screw in the four Phillips screws, as shown in Figure 4-4
If you removed the optional chassis rail, replace it and screw in the five Phillips screws, as shown in Figure 4-5
Use the following steps to close the cover:
Close the hinged cover on the system and screw in the ten Phillips screws to secure the cover, as shown in Figure 4-6.
Your base compute module and various optional modules in your system support PCI and PCI–X cards. The following instructions, which describe how to install and remove a PCI or PCI–X card from system base compute module, can be used to install and remove PCI and PCI–X cards from the base compute, CPU expansion, or CMPX module. For specific information on removing or replacing XG2N graphics cards, see “Replacing an XG2N Graphics Card”.
Figure 4-7 shows the location of the PCI and PCI–X card slots in the base compute module.
For an updated list of supported PCI and PCI-X cards, see SGI Supportfolio at http://support.sgi.com .
This section describes the following:
When installing or removing PCI or PCI–X cards from your system, be aware of the following rules:
If you operate PCI and PCI–X cards on the same bus at the same time, the PCI–X card will run in PCI mode.
If you place cards of different speeds on the same bus, the highest-speed card will run at the speed of the slower card. For example, if you have a 100 MHz-capable card in one slot of a bus and a 33 MHz card on the second slot of the same bus, both cards will run at 33 MHz.
When deciding to install a PCI or PCI–X card, be aware that if an IO10 card (a PCI card that runs at 66 MHz) is installed in your module (in the lowermost slot), and if you want to install a card in the slot immediately above the IO10, the slot will operate only in PCI mode at a speed no faster than 66 MHz.
Note the following caution when installing or removing a card:
Caution: Electronic equipment can be irreparably damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Always follow these preventive measures when you handle a system component:
- Remove a component from its antistatic bag only when you are ready to install it.
- If you handle a component before installation, do not place it on surfaces that produce ESD (carpeting, for example) or near devices that create static electricity.
- Attach a static wrist strap to a grounded connection on your system when you install or remove a component.
To install a PCI or PCI–X card, follow these steps:
Power off the Silicon Graphics Prism platform. For power off instructions, see “Powering Off Manually” in Chapter 1.
Disconnect all of the cables at the rear of the module.
Warning: Components may be hot. To avoid injury, allow the components to cool for approximately five minutes before you proceed with these instructions. If your module is rackmounted, remove the two screws that secure the module to the front rails of the rack. If the module is mounted with shelf rails, remove the screws at the rear. If your module is not rackmounted, proceed to step 5.
If the module is mounted with the optional slide rail kit, pull the module from the rack until it is stopped by the safety latches. If the module uses shelf rails, two people should lift the unit from the rack and place it on a stable work surface.
Open the top cover as described in “Opening the Cover”.
If you are installing a card into the top two PCI/PCI–X slots, you can install it without completely removing the module from the rack (optional slide rails only).
Note: If you are removing a card from one of the two lower slots (bus 1, slot 1, or bus 1, slot 2), you must remove the module from the rack. For detailed instructions, see “Removing a Rail-Mounted Module from a Rack” in Appendix B. Make sure that you read “Safety Instructions ”, and “Rules for Card Installation and Removal” before beginning your card installation.
If you are installing a card in one of the two lower-most card slots, you also need to remove the optional chassis rail, as described in “Removing the Optional Chassis Rail”. (If you are not installing a card into one of the lower-most card slots or your module is not slide-rail mounted, proceed to step 9.)
Caution: The module may or may not have a factory-installed IO10 card, which always comes installed in the lowermost slot. To prevent damage to your system, only a trained SGI service support engineer can install or remove an IO10 card. If you are installing a card in one of the two lower-most card slots, you must remove the lower PCI/PCI–X support bracket that covers the two lowermost slots, as described in “Removing the PCI/PCI-X Support Bracket”.
If a blanking plate covers the slot that is needed for the installation, remove the retaining screw, as shown in Figure 4-8, and the blanking plate.
Insert the card into the slot by pushing the card into the connector until it is properly seated and install the retaining screw, as shown in Figure 4-9. If you have installed the card into one of the upper two slots, proceed to step 13.
If you have installed a card in one of the two bottommost card slots, replace the lower PCI/PCI–X support bracket as described in “Reinstalling the PCI/PCI-X Support Bracket”.

Power on the Silicon Graphics Prism platform, as described in “Power-On the System” in Chapter 1.
This section provides guidelines for DIMM selection and installation, followed by instructions to install and remove DIMMs.
Memory is contained on cards that are referred to as DIMMs (dual inline memory modules). Each base compute, XG2N, CPU expansion, or CMPX module can contain four, eight, or twelve DIMMs installed in DIMM slots located on the module's node board.
These twelve DIMM slots are organized into three groups of four DIMMs each, as shown in Figure 4-23.
DIMMs are installed one per DIMM slot, and must be installed in groups of four.
Follow these guidelines when installing DIMM groups:
Memory is increased or decreased in four-DIMM group increments only.
Each of the four DIMMs that make up a DIMM group must be the same memory size and speed; however, different groups of DIMMs can differ in memory size.
The first four DIMMs (group 0) must be in place for the base compute module to operate properly.
Mixing DIMM groups with different access speeds will cause the memory bus to default to the speed used for the slowest group.
The maximum bus speed for a completely full set of DIMM memory slots (three installed groups), defaults to 100 MHz or 133 MHz, depending on the type of DIMMs installed.
The DIMMs used in the Silicon Graphics Prism platform modules are not compatible with DIMMs used in the Origin 200, Origin 350 series, SGI 3000 series, SGI 2000 series, Onyx systems, Fuel, Octane or Tezro systems.
Caution: Electronic equipment can be irreparably damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Always follow these preventive measures when you handle a system component:
- Remove a component from its antistatic bag only when you are ready to install it.
- If you handle a component before installation, do not place it on surfaces that produce ESD (carpeting, for example) or near devices that create static electricity.
- Attach a static wrist strap to a grounded connection on your system when you install or remove a component.
To install a DIMM group, follow these steps:
Power off the Silicon Graphics Prism platform. For powering off instructions, see “Powering Off Manually” in Chapter 1.
Disconnect all of the cables at the rear of the module.
Warning: Components may be hot. To avoid injury, allow the components to cool for approximately five minutes before you proceed with these instructions. Remove the two screws that secure the module to the front rails of the rack. For shelf-mounted modules, remove the two screws at the rear of the unit.
With shelf-mounted rails, use two people to slide the module out and move it to a stable work surface. With optional slide rails, pull the module from the rack until it is stopped by the safety latches.
Open the top cover as described in “Opening the Cover”.
Install the DIMMs, as follows (see Figure 4-24 and Figure 4-25):
Note: If you need to find the correct locations in which to install the DIMMs, make sure to read the introductory material in “Removing and Replacing Memory DIMMs”. Ensure the ejector latches are in the open position (leaning away from the slot).
Hold the DIMM only by its edges and remove it from its antistatic package.
Align the bottom edge of the DIMM with the keyed socket.
Insert the bottom edge of the DIMM into the socket, and then press down evenly on the DIMM until it seats correctly. Use extreme care when you install a DIMM. If you apply too much pressure, you can damage the socket.
When the DIMM is fully seated in the connector, the ejector latches snap into place flush with each end of the DIMM, see Figure 4-25.
Close the top cover as described in “Closing the Cover”.
If using optional slide rails, press the safety latches on both sides of the module and slide the module into the rack. For shelf-mounted units, use two people to slide the module back into the rack.
