Overview
The server is a modular, multiprocessing server based
on the Intel
Pentium® Pro chip set. The chip set
incorporates a modular scaleable architecture that
integrates a 64-bit bus interface with a primary and
peer Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) bus and
an Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA)
bus. The architecture supports Symmetrical
Multiprocessing (SMP) and a variety of operating
systems. The chassis and system board are designed to
meet the needs of the server marketplace.
The combination of computing performance, memory
capacity, and integrated I/O provides a high
performance environment for many applications
including network servers and multi-user systems.
The server is designed for use in applications where
downtime must be minimized. To this end, the server
includes or has the option to include the following:
■
Optional power system redundancy; in a system
configured with a redundant power supply, the
system will continue to operate with a single power
supply failure.
■
Self-contained power supply units that can be easily
installed or removed from the back of the chassis.
■
SCSI drive bays accessible from the front of the
chassis.
■
Hot-swap SCSI disk drive backplanes; a failed drive
can be removed and a new drive installed without
system power being turned off.
■
High degree of SCSI disk fault tolerance and
advanced disk array management features through
the use of RAID (Redundant Array of Independent
Disks) technology.
■
Hardware monitors (temperature and voltage) and
software monitors to indicate failures.
■
Easy access to all parts for service.
