TX300 S6
Options Guide 15
Preface Expansions and conversions
LSD/LSP
The system board supports the CSS (Customer Self Service) functionality
(description see the Operating Manual). You can install a ServerView Local
Service Display (LSD) or ServerView Local Service Panel (LSP) for an easier
identification of the defective components.
Additional expansion cards in the PCI Express slots
The system board offers seven PCI Express slots. Slots 1-5 are connected as
x4 interfaces, whereby slot 3 and slot 5 are used as x8 interfaces if slot 2 and
slot 4 are empty.
I
Slot 1 is the preferred slot for the SAS/SATA RAID controller (bootable).
Slot 5 and slot 7 allow the mechanical installation of x16 PCIe expansion
cards. The bus width is restricted to 8 lanes.
Battery Backup Unit
A Battery Backup Unit (BBU) backs up the memory contents of the SAS/SATA
RAID controller in the event of a power failure. One BBU can be installed for
each SAS/SATA RAID controller. A maximum of three BBUs can be installed for
each system.
Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
A Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for safer storage of keys can be implemented
as an option. This module enables programs from third party manufacturers to
store key information (e.g. drive encryption using Windows Bitlocker Drive
Encryption).
The TPM is activated via the BIOS system (for more information, refer to the
"D2619-N BIOS Setup Utility for PRIMERGY RX300 S6 and TX300 S6"
manual).
V
CAUTION!
– When using the TPM, note the program descriptions provided by the
third party manufacturers.
– You must also create a backup of the TPM content. To do this, follow
the third party manufacturer's instructions. Without this backup, if the
TPM or the system board is faulty you will not be able to access your
data.
