The diagnostics programs create a merged log that includes events from all collected logs. The
information is collected into a file that you can send to service and support. Additionally, you can view the
information locally through a generated text report file. You can also copy the log to a removable media
and view the log from a Web browser.
For additional information about diagnostics, see Chapter 5 “Diagnostics” on page 21.
• High-performance graphics controller
The server comes with an onboard high-performance graphics controller that supports high resolutions
and includes many performance-enhancing features for the operating-system environment.
• Integrated network support
The server comes with an integrated dual-port Broadcom Gigabit Ethernet controller, which supports
connection to a 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps network. For more information, see “Enabling the
Broadcom Gigabit Ethernet Utility program” on page 305.
• 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. You can enable TPM
support through the Setup Utility under the
System Security menu option.
• Large data-storage capacity and hot-swap capabilities
Some hot-swap server models support eight slim-high, 2.5-inch hot-swap hard disk drives or four
3.5-inch hot-swap hard disk drives (depending on the model). With the hot-swap feature, you can add,
remove, or replace hard disk drives without turning off the server.
• Large system-memory capacity
The server supports up to 48 GB (reduced to 24 GB in mirroring mode) of system memory. The memory
controller supports error correcting code (ECC) for up to 12 industry-standard PC3-10600R-999
(single-rank or dual-rank), 800, 1067, and 1333 MHz, DDR3 (third-generation double-data-rate), registered,
synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM) dual inline memory modules (DIMMs).
• Memory mirroring
Some models support memory mirroring. Memory mirroring replicates and stores data on two pairs of
DIMMs within two channels (channel 0 and 1) simultaneously. If a failure occurs, the memory controller
switches from the primary pair of memory DIMMs to the backup pair of DIMMs. To support memory
mirroring, you must install a pairs of DIMMs at a time. One DIMM must be in channel 0, and the mirroring
DIMM must be in the same slot in channel 1.
• ™ ServeRAID support
The ™ ServeRAID adapter provides hardware redundant array of independent disks (RAID) support to
create configurations. The standard RAID adapter provides RAID levels 0, 1, and 1E. The optional RAID
adapters are available for purchase and provides RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60. See “Installing an
adapter” on page 218 and “Using the LSI Configuration Utility program” on page 298 for more information
about the adapters that are supported and creating RAID arrays.
• Symmetric multiprocessing (SMP)
The server supports up to two Intel Xeon microprocessors. Each microprocessor provides symmetric
multiprocessing capability. When you install the second microprocessor, this will enhance the
performance of the server.
• Systems-management capabilities
The server comes with an integrated management module (IMM). When the IMM is used with the
systems-management software that comes with the server, you can manage the functions of the server
locally and remotely. The IMM also provides system monitoring, event recording, and network alert
capability. The system-management connector on the rear of the server is dedicated to the IMM. The
dedicated system-management connector provides additional security by physically separating the
management network traffic from the production network. You can use the Setup Utility to configure the
server to use a dedicated systems-management network or a shared network.
