Video I/O Card
Slide the gray plastic locking tab up by gently pulling on the tab.
Slide the card out of the riser card to remove.
Reverse the procedure to install a card. After all the screws are reinstalled, check that
the riser card, RAID card, and video card are all seated properly in their PCI connectors.
Accessing the Main System Board
There are no user-configurable options on the main system board. If you suspect that
the system board is not operating properly, consult with 360 Systems before
proceeding. DO NOT undertake any repairs on it.
Managing the RAID Disk Array
The RAID Disk Array is for the most part, self maintaining. Any errors that occur are generally
automatically assessed and the proper steps are taken by the system to correct the errors. A
BIOS level configuration utility is included on the system but is only used in conjunction with the
initial setup of the drives.
A single drive fault should not cause data loss; but remember: the drive array is degraded and no
longer has storage redundancy. Hence, another disk failure (or removal of the wrong disk) may
cause a complete loss of data and system failure. After a drive failure it is strongly recommended
that at the earliest time diagnostics be performed, and the server be taken off line while the RAID
array is rebuilt.
Error Notification and Repair
The TSS-2470 Time Delay will notify users in the event of a fault by an indicator in the GUI status
bar, on the bottom of the screen and highlighted in yellow as shown below. A drive fault can be
trigged by a variety of conditions. The first step in response to an error warning is to wait 10
minutes and see if the status indicator changes. In most cases the system will detect the error
and initiate a rebuild process. The GUI will display an updated message indicating the percent of
the drive rebuild.
