Workstation features
The IntelliStation E Pro takes advantage of advancements in data storage, memory,
systems management, and network environments. The computer includes:
v
High performance accelerated graphics port (AGP) graphics
The computer comes with an AGP graphics adapter installed. This
high-performance adapter supports high resolutions and includes many
performance-enhancing features for the operating-system environment.
v
Large system memory
The memory bus in the computer supports up to 1.5 GB of system memory. The
memory controller provides error code correction (ECC) support for up to three
industry-standard PC133, 3.3V, 168-pin, 133 Megahertz (MHz), unregistered,
synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM) dual inline memory
modules (DIMMs).
v
Systems-management capabilities
The computer comes with features that a network administrator or file server
can can use to remotely manage and control the computer. Some of the features
include: Wake on LAN
®
, Remote Administration, and System Migration
Assistant.
v
Integrated network environment support
The computer comes with an Ethernet controller on the system board. This
Ethernet controller has an interface for connecting to 10-Mbps or 100-Mbps
networks. The computer automatically selects between 10BASE-T and
100BASE-TX environments. The controller provides full-duplex (FDX) capability,
which enables simultaneous transmission and reception of data on the Ethernet
local area network (LAN).
Reliability, availability, and serviceability features
Three important computer design features are reliability, availability, and
serviceability (RAS). The RAS features help to ensure the integrity of the data that
is stored on the computer, the availability of the computer when you need it, and
the ease with which you can diagnose and repair problems.
The following is an abbreviated list of the RAS features that the computer
supports. Many of these features are explained in later chapters of this publication.
v
Reliability features
– Boot block recovery
– Cooling fans with speed-sensing capability
– Error code correction (ECC) front-side buses (FSBs)
– ECC L2 cache and system memory
– Parity checking on the small computer system interface (SCSI) and peripheral
component interconnect (PCI) buses
– Advanced configuration and power interface (ACPI)
– Power-on self-test (POST)
– Synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM) with serial presence
detect (SPD)
v
Availability features
– Advanced Desktop Management Interface (DMI) features
– Auto-restart initial program load (IPL) power supply
– Automatic error retry or recovery
– Automatic computer restart after power failure
– Built-in, menu-driven configuration and setup programs
