Chapter 1. Introducing the xSeries 350 server

Reliability, availability, and serviceability
Three of the most important features in server design are reliability, availability, and
serviceability (RAS). These factors help to ensure the integrity of the data stored on
your server, that your server is available when you want to use it, and that should a
failure occur, you can easily diagnose and repair the failure with minimal
inconvenience.
The following is an abbreviated list of the RAS features that your server supports.
•
Cooling fans with speed-sensing capability (hot-swap)
•
Error correcting code (ECC) front side buses (FSBs)
•
ECC L2 cache
