drive (HDD). The use of all SSDs provides higher I/O performance than the
use of all HDDs or a combination of HDDs and SSDs.
●
The LANs on motherboard (LOMs) and Open Compute Project (OCP) 2.0
mezzanine cards provide a variety of ports to meet different networking
requirements.
●
With Intel integrated I/O, the Intel
®
Xeon
®
Scalable processors integrate the
PCIe 3.0 controller to shortens I/O latency and improve overall system
performance.
●
The server supports up to eight PCIe 3.0 slots.
Availability and Serviceability
●
Carrier-class components with process expertise ensure high system reliability
and availability.
●
The server uses hot-swappable SAS/SATA/NVMe drives. It supports RAID 0, 1,
1E, 10, 5, 50, 6, and 60, depending on the RAID controller card used. It also
uses a supercapacitor to protect the RAID cache data against power failures.
●
The SSDs offer better reliability than HDDs, ensuring continued system
performance.
●
The server provides simplified O&M and efficient troubleshooting through the
UID/HLY indicators on the front panel, fault diagnosis LED, and iBMC web
interface.
●
The built-in iBMC monitors system parameters in real time, triggers alarms,
and performs recovery actions to minimize the system downtime.
●
Huawei provides a three-year warranty for parts replacement and onsite
repair for the servers used in China. Huawei provides a 10-hour-a-day, 7-day-
a-week support program. Service requests will be handled the next business
day. Optional service upgrades are available.
●
Huawei provides a three-year warranty for parts replacement and repair for
the servers used outside China. Huawei provides a 9-hour-a-day, 5-day-a-
week support program. Service requests will be handled the next business day.
Huawei delivers the repaired or new parts within 45 calendar days after
receiving the defective parts.
Manageability and Security
●
The built-in iBMC monitors server operating status and provides remote
management.
●
A password is required for accessing the BIOS, ensuring system boot and
management security.
●
The Network Controller Sideband Interface (NC-SI) allows a network port to
serve as a management port and a service port for maximized return on
investment (ROI) for customers. The NC-SI feature is disabled by default and
can be enabled through the iBMC or BIOS.
●
The integrated Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) improves setup,
configuration, and update efficiency and simplifies fault handling.
●
Lockable server chassis panel ensures security of local data.
●
The Advanced Encryption Standard–New Instruction (AES NI) algorithm
allows faster and stronger encryption.
