• ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD The ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD, which you can
download from the web, provides programs to help you set up the server and install a Windows operating
system. The ServerGuide program detects installed optional hardware devices and provides the correct
configuration programs and device drivers. For more information about the
ServerGuide Setup and
Installation CD, see “Using the ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD” on page 97.
• Integrated network support The server comes with an integrated 4-port Gigabit Ethernet controller,
which supports connection to a 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps network. In the initial server
configuration, Ethernet 1 and Ethernet 2 are activated. To enable Ethernet 3 and Ethernet 4, a Features
on Demand (FoD) key needs to be installed and activated. For more information, see “Configuring the
Gigabit Ethernet controller” on page 109.
With the hot-swap feature, you can add, remove, or replace hard disk drives without turning off the server.
• Integrated Trusted Platform Module (TPM) This integrated security chip performs cryptographic
functions and stores private and public secure keys. It provides the hardware support for the Trusted
Computing Group (TCG) specification. You can download the software to support the TCG specification,
when the software is available. See http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/xseries/scalable_family.html for
details about the TPM implementation. You can enable TPM support through the Setup utility under the
System Security menu option.
• Large data-storage capacity and hot-swap capability The hot-swap server models support a
maximum of fourteen 3.5-inch hot-swap Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) hard disk drives or hot-swap Serial
ATA (SATA) hard disk drives. The simple-swap server models support a maximum of eight 3.5-inch
simple-swap SATA hard disk drives.
With the hot-swap feature, you can add, remove, or replace hard disk drives without turning off the server.
• Light path diagnostics Light path diagnostics provides LEDs to help you diagnose problems. For more
information about the light path diagnostics, see “Light path diagnostics panel” on page 18 and “Light
path diagnostics LEDs” on page 131.
• Mobile access to Lenovo Service Information website The server provides a QR code on the system
service label, which is on the cover of the server, that you can scan using a QR code reader and scanner
with a mobile device to get quick access to the Lenovo Service Information website. The Lenovo Service
Information website provides additional information for parts installation and replacement videos, and
error codes for server support. For the QR code, see QR code information on page Chapter 1 “The
Lenovo System x3630 M4 Type 7158 server” on page 1.
• PCI adapter capabilities Based on the server configuration, the server may possibly support up to five
PCI expansion slots. See “Installing an adapter on the PCI riser-card assembly” on page 57 for detailed
information.
• Active Energy Manager The Active Energy Manager solution is an Systems Director extension
that measures and reports server power consumption as it occurs. This enables you to monitor
power consumption in correlation to specific software application programs and hardware
configurations. You can obtain the measurement values through the systems-management interface
and view them, using Systems Director. For more information, including the required levels of
Systems Director and Active Energy Manager, see the Systems Director Information Center at
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/director/v6r1x/index.jsp?topic=/director_6.1/fqm0_main.html, or
see http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/software/director/resources.html.
• Redundant connection The IMM2 provides failover capability to a redundant Ethernet connection
with the applicable application installed. If a problem occurs with the primary Ethernet connection, all
Ethernet traffic that is associated with the primary connection is automatically switched to the optional
redundant Ethernet connection. If the applicable device drivers are installed, this switching occurs
without data loss and without user intervention.
• Redundant cooling and optional power capabilities The server supports a maximum of two 550-watt or
750-watt hot-swap power supplies and three dual-motor non hot-swap fans, which provide redundancy
for a typical configuration. The redundant cooling by the fans in the server enables continued operation
