Fault Notification and Recovery features combine innovative hardware and software technology to prevent the loss of critical data and minimize unplanned downtime.
If the workstation is connected to a network managed by HP Client Manager Software, the computer sends a fault notice to the network management application. With HP Client Manager Software, you can also remotely schedule diagnostics to automatically run on all managed PCs and create a summary report of failed tests.
Drive Protection System
The DPS is a diagnostic tool built into the hard drives installed in select HP workstations. DPS is designed to help diagnose problems that might result in unwarranted hard drive replacement.
When HP workstations are built, each installed hard drive is tested using DPS, and a permanent record of key information is written onto the drive. Each time DPS is run, test results are written to the hard drive. The service provider can use this information to help diagnose conditions that caused you to run the DPS software.
ECC Fault Prediction and Prefailure Warranty
When the workstation encounters an excessive number of error checking and correcting (ECC) memory errors, the workstation displays a Local Alert message. This message contains detailed information about the errant memory module, allowing you to take action before you experience
NOTE: To use this feature, you must replace the standard DIMMs with HP ECC DIMMs.

Thermal Sensor
The thermal sensor is a hardware and software feature that tracks the internal temperature of the workstation. When combined with HP Client Manager Software, this features notifies the network administrator when the normal range is exceeded.
The thermal sensor monitors the processor temperature. If the temperature does not go down, then the system eventually shuts down.
