v
Impressive
performance
using
the
latest
microprocessor
technology
Your
blade
server
supports
up
to
four
Intel
Xeon
microprocessors.
Your
blade
server
comes
with
at
least
one
microprocessor
installed;
you
can
install
additional
microprocessors
to
further
enhance
performance
and
symmetric
multiprocessing
(SMP)
capability.
v
I/O
expansion
Your
blade
server
comes
with
two
connectors
on
the
I/O
board
for
optional
I/O
expansion
cards
for
adding
more
network
communication
capabilities
to
the
blade
server.
v
Integrated
network
support
Your
blade
server
comes
with
four
integrated
Gigabit
Ethernet
controllers.
Each
Ethernet
controller
has
an
interface
for
connecting
to
10/100/1000-Mbps
networks
through
an
Ethernet
switch
module
in
the
BladeCenter
unit.
The
blade
server
automatically
selects
between
10BASE-T
and
100/1000BASE-TX
environments.
Each
controller
provides
full-duplex
(FDX)
capability,
which
enables
simultaneous
transmission
and
reception
of
data
on
the
Ethernet
local
area
network
(LAN).
The
controllers
support
Wake
on
LAN
®
technology.
v
Light
path
diagnostics
Light
path
diagnostics
provides
LEDs
to
help
you
diagnose
problems.
For
more
information,
see
“Light
path
diagnostics”
on
page
72.
v
Serial
over
LAN
Your
blade
server
supports
serial
over
LAN
(SOL)
technology,
which
provides
advanced
remote
management
capability.
It
provides
the
ability
to
redirect
server
serial
data
over
a
LAN
without
the
use
of
serial
concentrators.
It
also
eliminates
the
need
for
serial
cabling
by
internally
rerouting
serial
packets
over
the
LAN.
The
SOL
feature
is
accessed
through
the
management-module
command-line
interface.
The
SOL
feature
does
not
require
any
special
client
software
because
it
is
designed
to
work
with
existing
standard
Telnet
consoles.
See
the
BladeCenter
Management
Module
Command-Line
Interface
User’s
Guide
and
the
BladeCenter
Serial
Over
LAN
Setup
Guide
for
information.
v
Symmetric
multiprocessing
(SMP)
Your
server
supports
up
to
four
Intel
microprocessors.
If
the
server
comes
with
only
one
microprocessor,
you
can
install
an
additional
microprocessor
to
enhance
performance
and
provide
SMP
capability.
Reliability,
availability,
and
serviceability
features
Three
important
computer
design
features
are
reliability,
availability,
and
serviceability
(RAS).
The
RAS
features
help
to
ensure
the
integrity
of
the
data
that
is
stored
in
your
server,
the
availability
of
the
server
when
you
need
it,
and
the
ease
with
which
you
can
diagnose
and
repair
problems.
Your
server
has
the
following
RAS
features:
v
Advanced
Configuration
and
Power
Interface
(ACPI)
v
Automatic
server
restart
v
Built-in
monitoring
for
temperature,
voltage,
hard
disk
drives,
and
flash
drives
v
Chipkill
memory
v
Customer-upgradeable
basic
input/output
system
(BIOS)
