Features

Server Management

Server management is implemented via the supplied ServerView software and PDA (Prefailure Detection and Analyzing) technology from Fujitsu Siemens Computers. PDA warns of system errors or overloading before they occur so that preventive measures can be taken.

ServerView allows the management of all PRIMERGY servers in the network via a central console. Here ServerView supports the following functions:

Remote startup (Wake On LAN)

Temperature monitoring of the CPU and the surrounding area

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

Power monitoring

End-of-life monitoring of the fans with timely notification before a failure

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

Deployment software makes installing multiple servers fast and easy. For further information, see the corresponding documentation (see “Related Publications” on page 165).

Information on server management with ServerView is provided in the associated documentation (see also “Related Publications” on page 165).

ServerStart

You can configure the server quickly and precisely with the ServerStart software provided. User-guided menus are available for installing the server operating systems.

Service and Support

PRIMERGY servers are service-friendly and modular, thus allowing quick and easy maintenance.

IFor easy and immediate recognition, the levers or handles and locking buttons (touch points) of the locking mechanisms for the different compo- nents have the color green.
