Description of Power Module Indicators

Indicator light/button Status Description
Power module indicator Green (steady on): Indicates that the input and output

are normal.

Orange (steady on): Indicates that the AC power cord is unplugged or the power module is missing, and only one parallel-connected power module has AC input; the power module failure causes the output to be turned off, such as OVP, OCP, fan failure, etc.

Green (1Hz/blinking): Indicates that the input is normal, the voltage is too low (less than 12V) or the power supply is in the intelligent standby mode.

Green (2Hz/blinking): Indicates the firmware is undergoing an online upgrade.

Orange (1Hz/blinking): Indicates continuous power warning events during power operation, such as high temperature, high power, or large current.

Off: Indicates no AC power input.

Slot 9 CPU1 PCIe 5.0 X8 or X16 Half-height half length

Note:

◆ PCIe slots with a bus bandwidth of PCIe x16 are backward compatible with PCIe x8, PCIe x4, and PCIe x1 cards. However, they are not upward compatible, meaning that the bandwidth of the PCIe slot cannot be smaller than the bandwidth of the inserted PCIe card.

◆ The slot size of a full-height full-length PCIe slot is backward compatible with full-height half-length and half-height half-length PCIe cards. The slot size of a

full-height half-length PCIe slot is backward compatible with half-height half-length PCIe cards.

◆ The power capacity of all slots can support PCIe cards with a maximum power of 75W. The power consumption of the PCIe card depends on the model of the card.

Installation Instructions

Chassis Top Cover Installation

  • Step 1: Lift the slot at the opening position, push and lift it in the direction indicated by the diagram.

Installation of Accessories

CPU installation

  • Step 1: Align the triangular mark on the CPU with the handle on the bracket as shown in the diagram, and mount the CPU onto the heatsink.SL201-G4-Gooxi-Eagle-Stream-Platform-2U-Model-Servers-FIG-29

Heatsink installation

  • Step   1: Remove the protective cover on the motherboard CPU socket.
  • Step 2: Install the CPU and heatsink onto the CPU socket. (As shown in the diagram below)
  • Step 3: Press down on the four corners of the heatsink’s fixing lock towards the outside, and, following the diagram below, rotate the screws fixing the heatsink in a clockwise direction twice to secure the heatsink to the motherboard.
  • Caution: The pins on the motherboard are extremely fragile and can be easily damaged. To prevent damage to the motherboard, do not touch the processor or the contact points on the processor socket.

Memory installation

  • The 16 memory slots controlled by CPU0 on the motherboard are as follows: CPU0 DIMMB0/B1,DIMMA0/A1, DIMMD0/D1, DIMMC0/C1, DIMMG1/G0, DIMMH1/H0, DIMME1/E0, DIMMF1/F0. The 16 memory slots controlled by CPU1 are as follows: CPU1 DIMMB0/B1,DIMMA0/A1,DIMMD0/D1,DIMMC0/C1, DIMMG1/G0, DIMMH1/H0, DIMME1/E0, DIMMF1/F0. Please note that the memory notches should match the DIMM slots’ notches. Insert each DIMM module vertically to prevent incorrect installation.SL201-G4-Gooxi-Eagle-Stream-Platform-2U-Model-Servers-FIG-32
  • Note: On this motherboard, please use memory modules with the same CAS latency value. It is recommended to use memory of the same capacity and frequency produced by the same manufacturer.

Server slide rail installation

  • Step 1: Prepare two slide rails and pull out the inner rail.
  • Step 2: Fasten the inner rails to the sides of the chassis.SL201-G4-Gooxi-Eagle-Stream-Platform-2U-Model-Servers-FIG-34
  • Step 3: Install the outer rails on the cabinet brackets and secure the screws.
  • Note: When installing the guide rail, align it with the U-mark, and push it into place until you hear a click sound. Secure it firmly using M5 screws.
  • Step 4: Align the chassis with the inner rails installed with the outer rails for installation.
  • Note: When you push the chassis forward, you will hear a snapping sound. If you can’t push it, you need to pull down the buckle of the inner rail to continue to push the chassis gently.
  • Step 5: Push the chassis forward until it cannot slide and make sure that the screws are securely installed to complete the installation.SL201-G4-Gooxi-Eagle-Stream-Platform-2U-Model-Servers-FIG-37
  • Note: During equipment maintenance, it is necessary to loosen the panel screws and pull the chassis lightly. Do not push or pull the chassis at random speed to avoid damage to the equipment.

Configuration Instructions

Initial Configuration Power on and start

  • Before powering on, it is necessary to ensure that all configurations of the server are installed under the corresponding specifications and standards and keep the server turned off but not unplugged from the power supply.
  • All cables are connected properly, and the power supply voltage is consistent with that of the device.
  • During the power-on process, please do not plug in hard drives, power modules, network cables, or other external devices and cables.
  • If the server has just been unplugged from the power supply, please wait for 1 minute before turning on the power.

Server power-on power status:

  • The power supply is powered on, but the server is not turned on, and the power indicator is flashing green.
  • Power on, the server starts up, and the power indicator light is green.

How to power on the server:

  • The server’s default power-on policy is “Power-On Boot,” which means the server will automatically power on when it receives power.
  • Users can modify this setting in the BIOS Setup interface.
  • Press the or key on the keyboard during the boot process to enter the BIOS Setup interface, and find the following interface:SL201-G4-Gooxi-Eagle-Stream-Platform-2U-Model-Servers-FIG-38
  • PCH state after G3
  • PCH state setting after G3, the menu options are:
  • S0: Power on and start-up directly
  • S5: You need to press the Power button to turn on the power leave power state unchanged: Leave the power state unchanged.
  • Default: S0
  • Log in to the iBMC management interface to perform remote power-on and power-off control.
  • Enter the BMC IP address -> enter the BMC account and password -> find the remote control interface -> power controller -> It can be executed according to requirements.SL201-G4-Gooxi-Eagle-Stream-Platform-2U-Model-Servers-FIG-39
  • For detailed usage of BMC and BIOS, please refer to the corresponding user manual.

Initial data

  • BMC default account: admin
  • BMC default password: Gooxi@123.
  • BMC default address: 192.168.100.1
  • BIOS Default Password: None

Configure BIOS

  • Press the or key on the keyboard during power-on and start-up to enter the BIOS Setup interface, as shown below:SL201-G4-Gooxi-Eagle-Stream-Platform-2U-Model-Servers-FIG-40
  • The Main interface contains the basic information of the BIOS system, such as the BIOS version number, CPU model, memory capacity, and the system time can be set. For detailed instructions, please refer to the “BIOS User Manual”.
