Lenovo RD210 Remote presence capability and blue-screen capture, Large system-memory capability

for remote server management capabilities. The IMM provides remote server management through the following industry-standard interfaces:

–Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) version 2.0

–Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) version 3

–Common Information Model (CIM)

–Web browser

v Remote presence capability and blue-screen capture

IMM Premium is required to enable the remote presence and blue-screen capture features. The remote presence feature provides the following functions:

–Remotely viewing video with graphics resolutions up to 1280 x 1024 at 75 Hz, regardless of the system state

–Remotely accessing the server, using the keyboard and mouse from a remote client

–Mapping the CD or DVD drive, diskette drive, and USB flash drive on a remote client, and mapping ISO and diskette image files as virtual drives that are available for use by the server

–Uploading a diskette image to the IMM memory and mapping it to the server as a virtual drive

The blue-screen capture feature captures the video display contents before the IMM restarts the server when the IMM detects an operating-system hang condition. A system administrator can use the blue-screen capture to assist in determining the cause of the hang condition.

vLarge system-memory capability

The memory bus supports up to 128 GB of system memory. The memory controller supports error correcting code (ECC) for up to 16 industry-standard PC3-10600R-999 (single-rank or dual-rank), 800, 1067, and 1333 MHz, DDR3 (third-generation double-data-rate), registered, synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM) dual inline memory modules (DIMMs).

vIntegrated network support

The server comes with an integrated dual-port Broadcom Gigabit Ethernet controller, which supports connection to a 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, or 1000-Mbps network. For more information, see “Configuring the Gigabit Ethernet controllers” on page 138.

vIntegrated Trust Platform Module

This integrated security chip performs cryptographic functions and stores private and public secure keys. It provides the hardware support for the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) specification.

vLarge data-storage capacity and hot-swap capability

The server supports a maximum of six 2.5-inch hot-swap Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) hard disk drives or hot-swap Serial ATA (SATA) hard disk drives.

With the hot-swap feature, you can add, remove, or replace hard disk drives without turning off the server.

vEasyLED diagnostics

EasyLED diagnostics provides LEDs to help you diagnose problems. For more information about the EasyLED, see “EasyLED diagnostics panel” on page 17.

vPCI adapter capabilities

The server has two PCI interface slots (one supports low-profile cards and one supports half-length, full-height cards). Both slots can support PCI Express adapters. See “Removing and installing an adapter” on page 55 for detailed information.
