12 Operating Manual BX600 S3
Preface Features
Power Supply
Up to four hot-swappable power supply units which adjust automatically to any
power voltage in the range 200 - 240 V in a 2+2 redundant power supply configuration ensure enough power for the system. If one of these units fails, the
others ensure that operation continues unimpaired. The defective power supply
unit can be replaced during operation (hot-swap).
Ventilation
The system is kept cool by three fans in each power supply unit and four single
fans, with two of them mounted one after the other in a housing in the rear
chassis. This configuration is redundant and hot-swappable.
High Level of Availability and Failure Protection
When memory data is accessed, 1-bit errors in the main memory are recognized and automatically corrected with the ECC (Error Correcting Code)
method.
ASR&R (Automatic Server Reconfiguration and Restart) restarts the system in
the case of an error and automatically “hides” the defective system components.
The PDA (Prefailure Detection and Analyzing) technology from Fujitsu
Technology Solutions analyzes and monitors all components relevant for
system reliability.
The hot-swappable components provide additional failure protection. Failure
protection on a complete blade system is ensured by up to four redundant, hotswap power supply units (PSU), as well as hot-swap, redundant fans.
Server Management
Server management is implemented via the supplied ServerView software and
PDA (Prefailure Detection and Analyzing) technology from Fujitsu Technology
Solutions. 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
BX600 S3 Operating Manual 13
Features Preface
● 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 157).
Information on server management with ServerView is provided in the associated
documentation (see also “Related Publications” on page 157).
ServerView Installation Manager
You can configure the server quickly and precisely with the ServerView
Installation Manager 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.
I For easy and immediate recognition, the levers or handles and locking
buttons (touch points) of the locking mechanisms for the different components have the color green.
The flash EPROM program supplied with the Fujitsu Technology Solutions
utilities supports fast BIOS update. The two redundant and hot-swappable
management blades with independent management LAN and COM ports
ensure complete remote control. Together they facilitate remote diagnosis for
system analysis, remote configuration and remote restart, should the operating
system or hardware fail.
