1.2 ETHERNET SYSTEM SERVER GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The InfoServer 100 is a high performance server that is based on the TEAMMATE II hardware. The InfoServer 100 software is a unique kernal specifically developed for the product.
This software supports the LAD/LAST protocol which allows client systems to access InfoServer 100 storage over the Ethernet as if it was mounted as a locally attached device.
Performance is enhanced by utilizing system memory as a cache for storage data. The
MOP protocol is supported and provides the means of loading the client system from the
server. The LAT protocol will support remote management of InfoServer 100 from any LAT
terminal.
Client software support at FRS will be limited to VMS. Ultrix, MSDOS, and OS2 client
software support is planned.
InfoServer 100 will be offerred in two general configurations. The first is a SCSI CD ROM
based system which will allow CD media to be shared with multiple client systems on the
network. The 3 major applications for this configuration are:
.

software distribution

on-line documentation

boot server for Mariah class systems

Introduction 1

The other InfoServer 100 configuration provides paging and swapping capability with SCSI
read/write storage for X-terminal support. The InfoServer 100 read/write storage provide
memory paging capability over the ethernet network to multiple Decwindow terminals,
thereby achieving a major improvement in terminal performance.

2 Introduction

CHAPTER 2
INFOSERVER 100 FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW
2.1 SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The heart of the CPU module is the CVAX/CFPA Vax chipset. The CPU module has the
following functions/features: 4 mb of system memory, 256Kb rom, ethernet interface (thinwire and AUI), 4 serial lines, two SCSI ports (SCSI A and SCSI B) for internal and external
SCSI storage devices, and a diagnostic display.
InfoServer 100 supports both SCSI 3.5" read/write and 5.25" CD read-only half height storage devices in the system. Up to two CD Roms and three read/write drives can be installed
in the enclosure. A SCSI expansion bus allows storage expansion of up to six CD drives
externally.
The RRD40 CD drive and adapter module will be supported in the system. The integrated
SCSI CD drive will be supported once that device is qualified.
The components that make-up the core system can be seen in Figure 1 & 2.

6 InfoServer 100 Functional Overview

2.2 CPU BOARD
The CPU board has been developed from the KA41 CPU board used in the TEAMMATE
II system. For details on the CPU board refer to the InfoServer 100 CPU board (KA41)
Specification.
The CPU board is composed of, but not limited to, the following functionality and components:
1.

DC341 CVAX and DC513 CFPA floating point unit (FPU)

4 Mbytes of parity checking RAM memory

256 Kbytes of ROM memory—unique to the InfoServer 100

32 byte Ethernet address ROM

Time of Year Clock

Ethernet Interface

SCSI/SCSI controller

4 Serial Lines (1 with limited modem control)

Start-up Diagnostics

2.2.1 Central Processor
The central processor consists of a DC341 CVAX and a DC513 CFPA floating point unit
(FPU). The key features of the central processor include:
1.

Implements a subset of the VAX instruction set.†

Implements a subset of the VAX data types.

Supports F, D, and H floating point data types.

Full VAX memory management.

A 32-bit memory data bus.

2.2.2 Ram Memory
The CPU board provides 4 Mbytes of RAM memory. The memory is longword aligned and
can be read or written in one bus cycle. Memory data integrity is provided by a parity
associated with each byte of memory.
2.2.3 ROM Memory
The CPU board ROM contains the following:
1.

Diagnostic Code

Console Code

Processor Restart Code

I/O Driver Code

† For details see the CVAX chip spec.

InfoServer 100 Functional Overview 7

Another ROM contains the SCSI/SCSI related code

The contents of these ROM’s are detailed in the KA41 System Firmware Specification.
2.2.4 Ethernet Address ROM
The CPU board contains 32 byte ROM that holds a unique 32-bit network address for each
InfoServer 100 system.
2.2.5 Time of Year Clock
The CPU board contains a battery backed up time of year clock that keeps the date and
time of day. A rechargeable, nickle-cadmium battery provides power to the time of year
clock when system power is off. When starting from a fully charged state, the battery will
maintain valid time and date for a minimum of 100 hours. The battery is automatically
recharged when system power is on.
2.2.6 Ethernet Interface
The system board permits attachment of Thinwire or Thickwire Ethernet to the system (one
logical port). Selection being made by a switch on the rear panel.
2.2.7 Serial Lines
The CPU board provides four asynchronous SLUs. Three of the SLUs are used for general
purpose and are DEC 423 compatible. The fourth SLU provides a RS 232 communication
port with modem control. See Table 6 for signal/pin definition.
2.2.8 Mass Storage
The CPU board supports a dual port Small Computer Standard Interface (SCSI) controller
to provide a mass storage interface to InfoServer 100.
The SCSI/SCSI Controller provides InfoServer 100 with "A" & "B" SCSI ports. Both ports are
used to service the user disks. The first SCSI port may connect to an internal read/write
storage device for server software usage. The second port also allows the attachment of
external SCSI mass storage devices to the system. The number of external SCSI mass
storage devices allowed depends on the number of internal storage devices. The total number
of devices (internal and external) permitted on the SCSI bus is seven.

2.3 STORAGE DEVICES
Table 1 below lists the mass storage devices supported by the InfoServer 100. All are half
height devices.

4.2 EXTERNAL SWITCHES
The InfoServer 100 contains the following external switches.
1.

Power on switch—
The AC power on switch is located on the rear of the System. This switch controls the
application of AC power to the InfoServer 100’s power supply.

Halt switch –
The halt switch is a momentary contact push-button switch located in the rear of the
InfoServer 100. This switch will, when pressed, apply a HALT signal to the System
processor.

Break Enable switch –
This switch will enable and disable the System from halting on the reception of a BREAK
sequence on COMMS port #1. A LED is illuminated when the switch is in the "enable
halt" mode.

Network Select switch –
The Network Select Switch is a push-button switch, which when operated selects either
the thin or thick wire Ethernet port. An LED indicator is illuminated to show which
port has been selected.

InfoServer 100 Physical Specifications 13

4.3 EXTERNAL LEDs
Other than the three LEDs memtioned above, the InfoServer 100 contains the following
externally visible LEDS.
1.

power supply. This LED is visible from the front of the enclosure.

System State Indicator LEDs –
The eight system state indicator LEDs are located on the system board and are visible
from the rear of the enclosure. These LEDs are used during testing and initialization.
The LEDs are divided into two fields of four. The left field of four LEDs indicates the
current state of the system; the meaning of the right field of four LEDs is dependent
on the state of the first field. For details on the possible states and substates that the
eight LEDs indicate, refer to KA41 Firmware Specification.
