Chapter 3. Features and technologies

What is included with your server

The RD240 server package includes the server, a power cord, documentation, the documentation DVD, and software media.

Features

The RD240 server offers the following features and technologies:

•Microprocessor(s): The server supports up to two Intel® Xeon® dual-core, quad-core, or hex-core microprocessors.

•BIOS: The server firmware defines a standard interface between the operating system, platform firmware, and external devices.

•EasyStartup DVD: The ThinkServer EasyStartup program guides you through the configuration of the hardware, the redundant array of independent disks (RAID) controller, and the installation of the operating system and device drivers.

•Integrated network support: The server comes with two integrated single-port Gigabit Ethernet controllers and each supports connection to a 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps network. For more information, see “Configuring the Gigabit Ethernet controller” on page 91.

•Large data-storage capacity and hot-swap capability: Some hot-swap server models support eight 3.5-inchhot-swap hard disk drives. With the hot-swap feature, you can add, remove, or replace hard disk drives without turning off the server.

•Large system-memory capacity: The server supports up to 64 GB of system memory. The memory module supports error correcting code (ECC) for up to eight industry-standard single-rank or dual-rank, 1333 MHz, DDR3 (third-generation double-data-rate) registered synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM) dual inline memory modules (DIMMs).

•High-performance graphics controller: The server comes with an onboard high-performance graphics controller that supports high resolutions and includes many performance-enhancing features for the operating-system environment.

•Redundant connection: The two onboard network interface controllers (NIC) provide a failover capability to a redundant Ethernet connection. If a problem occurs with the primary Ethernet connection, all Ethernet traffic that is associated with the primary connection is automatically switched to the redundant NIC. If the applicable device drivers are installed, this switching occurs without data loss and without user intervention.

•Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) 2.0: The command-line interface provides direct access to server management functions through the IPMI 2.0 protocol. Use the command-line interface to issue commands to control the server power, view system information, and identify the server. You can also save one or more commands as a text file and run the file as a script.

•RAID support: The server supports an onboard 1068E Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) RAID controller and an add-on SAS RAID card (ThinkServer 8708ELP SAS RAID Adapter, ThinkServer 8708EM2 RAID Adapter, or ThinkServer RAID 700 Adapter), which are required for you to use the hot-swap SAS or SATA hard disk drives and to create the RAID configurations.
