Features overview
The Acer Altos G900 four-way performance server model utilizes a PCI
bus based mainboard built on an ATX form factor. It supports up to
four processors from the Intel
®
Xeon
™
processor family.
For expandability, the mainboard supports eight full length PCI slots
(4 PCI-X hot plug, 2 PCI-X non-hot plug, 2 PCI non-hot plug). An
impressive 12 GB maximum system memory is achieved through 12
DIMM sockets utilizing DDR-266 (Double Data Rate) modules.
Media drives include one 3.5-inch floppy drive, a CD-ROM drive, plus
two 5.25-inch peripheral bays. The system also supports up to ten
1-inch hot-swap Ultra160 SCSI hard drives providing an additional
730 GB of storage space.
For connectivity, the mainboard provides two external USB (Universal
Serial Bus) ports and one internal header providing one additional USB
port, PS/2 interface for both mouse and keyboard, one VGA/monitor
port, one external serial port and one internal serial port header, one
parallel port with Extended Capabilities Port (ECP)/Enhanced Parallel
Port (EPP) support, and for networking, two NIC ports (RJ-45).
Power supply is provided by the three hot-swap power supply modules
in a 2+1 redundant configuration (third module optional).
In terms of serviceability, the system features front access to hot-swap
hard disk drives, rear access to hot-swap power supplies, and side
access to hot-plug PCI boards and hot-swap fans. Serviceable items are
color coded throughout and detailed configuration labels are located
on the system’s side panel. Fault indicators and system UID (Unit ID)
light are also available.
Manageability features include compliance to both IPMI 1.5 and WfM
2.0 standard, extensive system sensors and monitoring, as well as
function for remote management and diagnostics via the serial or LAN
port. External chassis management is done via ICMB.
