Introduction
The PRIMERGY H250 server is an Intel-based server for mid-size and large
companies. The server is suitable for use as a file server as well as an appli-
cation, information, or internet server. It can be used as a floorstand model as
well as a rack model. The floorstand model can be converted to a rack model
with an optionally available conversion kit.
The H250 server offers a high level of reliability and availability through highly
developed hardware and software components. These include hot-swappable
hard disk drive modules, hot-plug fans, hot-plug power supply units, the
ServerView
server management software, Prefailure Detection and Analysing
(PDA) and Automatic Server Reconfiguration and Restart (ASR&R). In addition,
the remote service functionality is made available by the onboard service
processor.
Security functions in the BIOS Setup and on the system board protect the data
on the server against manipulation. The door of the floorstand model can be
monitored centrally. As a rack model, the lockable front door of the rack offers
additional security.
This operating manual tells you how to put your server into operation, how to
operate it in daily use, and how to expand your server.
