S5000PAL Not booting

webadmin@intel.com — Fri, 27 Nov 2009 00:56:28 GMT

I've got a S5000PAL sitting in an Antec Titan case with a 650Watt ATX PSU

The 20+4 connector and CPU power connections are seated correctly and everything seems to be installed correctly. When I turn power on, the Blue LED flashes briefly and two green LED's come on (one blinks Green/Amber for a while then settles to full green) and the front power switch is connected on the front panel pins correctly (I've re-checked this a number of times)

When I press the power button switch on the front though nothing happens. No system/CPU fan and no activity.

Can you give me any guidance? The board is brand new!

Connect 2 Intel Modular Server together by an external SAS connexion

webadmin@intel.com — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 18:25:14 GMT

Hello,

I have found a specification explaining how to connect one MFSYS25 (IMS) with an external to a Promise* VTrak E610s.

This not exactly what i want.

What i want to do is to connect one MFSYS25 to another MFSYS25 (by interconnecting the SAS external port of each MFSYS25).

You have understood, i would like scalability.

In such configuration :

- the first MFSYS25 (say MFSYS25-1) would host the 6 blades + the SAN

- the second MFSYS25 (say MFSYS25-2) would host 6 more blades (these 6 blades use the remote SAN offered by MFSYS25-1)

For MFSYS25-2 point of view, MFSYS25-1 would then appear as a pure external SAN.

Is it technically feasible ? (this depends of SAS zoning capabilities of your system, I guess)

For info ;

I am currently working with IBM to do the same thing between one HS21 (in a Blade Center-E) and one HS21 (in a Blade Center-S - hosting the SAN).

I have the two guys in lab, but for the moment, we did not succeed to make the HS21 (in the BC-E) access to its lun located on the BC-S.

If you have a solution to my requirement , then i will choose Intel IMS.

S5000XVN Windows 7 support

webadmin@intel.com — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 06:22:28 GMT

While not specifically mentioned on the tested operating systems list for this board. Am I likely to have any trouble upgrading from XP 64bit to Windows 7 64 bit?

If so, does Intel plan to offer support for Win7 64bit with the S5000XVN in the near future?

Windows 2008 on I7-860 (LGA1156) on a ASUS P7P55D motherboard

davevasquez@comcast.net — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 16:36:54 GMT

I needed a new Windows 2008 server in order to develop and test things like Visual Studio 2008 and SQL Server 2008. I went to my local MicroCenter and they suggested an Intel I7-860 (LGA1156) on a ASUS P7P55D motherboard. Initially I tried the 64 install which gave many errors during installation. I then did the I386 install which worked better but it isn't perfect. Currently I am having problems loading the network driver that comes on the ASUS board. Am I barking up the wrong tree with this combination? Should this be a 64 bit installation? Is there another processor that you could suggest that would work on this board? Putting the equipment together was pretty simple. Once I started to install the software I encountered issues. I would generally just buy a server from Dell but I was really trying to save some bucks here.
