Chapter 1. Getting Started with PC Server 315
Your PC Server 315 combines powerful microprocessor performance,
large data-storage capacity, and improved system expandability.
This server is designed by IBM to support the demands of today's
network environment for smaller workgroups. Incorporating
industry-standard architecture (ISA) and peripheral component
interconnect (PCI) bus architectures, your server provides
compatibility with a wide range of existing hardware and software.
A built-in utility program allows you to configure the small
computer system interface (SCSI) devices that you install in your
server.
As an open-architecture, industry-standard system, the PC Server
315 has been tested for compatibility with numerous IBM and
non-IBM adapters and devices. Rugged dependability is achieved
by incorporating various quality standards and design points.
Refer to the Setup and Installation sheet for detailed information for
setting up and cabling the server.
This chapter contains an overview of the server features and
components.
If you plan to install options, see Chapter 3, “Installing Options” on
page 43, and install your options before using your server. Then,
follow the instructions in Chapter 2, “Configuring Your Server” on
page 15 for configuring your server. The troubleshooting
information in Chapter 4, “Solving Problems” on page 121 will help
you solve some of the simpler problems that might occur.
Appendix C, “Server Records” on page 203 provides a section for
you to record all the important information about your server.
Refer to the User's Reference for more detailed information about the
server features. That book also includes a glossary, warranty
information, and other important notices.
