Server Management

Server Management is implemented using theServerView software supplied combined with PDA (Prefailure Detection and Analyzing) technology from Fujitsu Siemens Computers. PDA reports the threat of a system error or overload at an early stage, allowing preventive measures to be taken.

ServerView enables the management of all PRIMERGY servers in the network via a central console. The following key functions and others are supported by ServerView:

●Round-the-clock monitoring, regardless of server status

●High-performance, graphical console bypass (AVR) protected by HTTPS/SSL (128 bit)

●Remote storage via USB

●Remote power on (Wake On LAN)

●Automatic switch-off when the housing is opened (Housing monitoring)

●Temperature monitoring of the CPU and the surrounding area

●Watchdog timer for Automatic Server Reconfiguration and Restart (ASR&R) in the event of failure of memory modules or processors

●Power monitoring

●End-of-life monitoring of fans with prompt notification before failure

●Watchdog timer for operating system monitoring and application monitoring with ASR&R

Further information about ServerView server management is provided in the associated documentation (see “Literature” on page 77).

ServerStart

You can configure the PRIMERGY server quickly and precisely with the Server- Start software provided. User-guided menus are available for installing the server operating system (for further details see section “Configuring the server” on page 51).
