RX600 S3 SAS Operating manual 7

1Introduction

The PRIMERGY RX600 S3 SAS server is an Intel-based server for mid-size

and large companies. It is suitable for use both as a file server, and as an appli-

cation, information, or Internet server. It is used as a rack model.

Thanks to its highly developed hardware and software components, the server

offers a high level of data security and availability. These include hot-plug hard

disk drive modules, hot-plug system fans and power supply units, hot-plug PCI

slots, hot-plug memory boards, the server management software ServerView,

Prefailure Detection and Analyzing (PDA), and Automatic Server Reconfigu-

ration and Restart (ASR&R).

Security functions in the BIOS setup and on the system board protect the data on

the server against manipulation. Additional security is provided by the rack's

lockable door.

The server occupies 4 height units (HU) in the rack.

1.1 Documentation overview

IPRIMERGY manuals are available in PDF format on the ServerBooks

DVD. The ServerBooks DVD is part of the ServerStart Suite supplied with

10 Operating manual RX600 S3 SAS

Features Introduction

1.2 Features

System board

The features of the system board are described in the technical manual for the

system board D2630 for the hardware and in the “BIOS Setup” for the firmware

(see “Literature” on page 109).

Hot-plug PCI slots

In addition to two standard PCI slots, the server also has five hot-plug PCI slots.

Of these five hot-plug PCI slots, one is already contains the PCI SAS RAID

Controller and is not available, one is available for a PCI-X board, and three are

available for PCI Express boards. These hot-plug PCI slots allow you to install

and remove boards while the server is online, provided that the operating

system supports this functionality (for more details, see section “Hot-plug PCI

boards” on page 90).

Hard disk drives

The server has a drive slot on the front, in which up to eight SAS hard disk drive

modules can be inserted. Each hard disk drive (HDD) module can accept an

SAS hard disk drive with a maximum height of 1 inch. The module is connected

to the SAS backplane without cables. This allows you to simply plug in or pull

out the HDD modules (for more details, see section “Hot-plug hard disk drives”

on page 80).

The hard disk subsystem is designed for SAS, with one channel for each hard

disk drive.

If the server has a corresponding RAID configuration, faulty HDD modules can

also be replaced while the server is online (hot-plug).

An external SCSI interface is also offered optionally to allow external storage

subsystems to be connected. You will find further information in the Options

Guide (see “Literature” on page 109).
