swapping of disk drives. Certain RAID configurations require use of optional hardware. Check
with your sales or service representative to obtain information on set-up procedures if your system
did not come pre-configured with SATA or SAS RAID.
PCI Express Expansion Slots
The dual processor serverboard has three PCIe 3.0 x16 slots to support internal double-width GPU
cards. An additional slot at the rear of the server supports one PCIe 3.0 x8 low-profile card.
See the section “PCIe Expansion Cards” in Chapter 5 for more information on these topics.
Onboard Controllers/Ports
The color-coded I/O ports include (an internal COM header located on the serverboard), VGA
(monitor) port, two external USB 2.0 ports and two gigabit LAN Ethernet ports. A dedicated
external IPMI LAN port is also included.
Onboard Graphics Controller
The dual-processor serverboard features an integrated Matrox G200 video controller providing a
16MB DDR2 graphics interface through the system VGA connector. The Matrox video controller
in the 1U server features low power consumption, high reliability and superior longevity.
IPMI
IPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Interface) is a hardware-level interface specification that
provides remote access, monitoring and administration for your SGI Rackable C1104G-RP5
server platforms. IPMI allows server administrators to view a server’s hardware status remotely,
receive an alarm automatically if a failure occurs, and power cycle a system that is non-responsive.
Other Features
Other onboard features that promote system health include onboard voltage monitors, a chassis
intrusion header, auto-switching voltage regulators, chassis and CPU overheat sensors, virus
protection and BIOS rescue.
