Chapter 1 Overview
1.1 TX200 S2
This server has the following features.
■ High Reliability
●
Advanced Memory Protection Functions
The server supports the Chipkill function using PC2700-compliant memory (DDR 333 SDRAM)
(256MB DIMM is not supported) and spare memory function to enable data recovery in the event of a
memory error.
● Storage System Configuration
A storage system (RAID0/1/5/10) can be configured using an optional RAID card.
A failed hard disk unit in a storage system can be replaced or repaired without turning off the server and
peripheral devices (a hot-plug is supported in configurations other than RAID0).
● Redundant Function
The power supply units and system fans can enable the redundant function using the PowerSupply
Conversion kit. If one power supply unit or system fan fails, it can be replaced without stopping the
system.
● Hardware and Software Designed for Data Security
Locks on the drive covers and the password setting in the BIOS Setup Utility protect hardware and data
assets in the server against theft, ensuring data security.
● Proactive Fan Function
When a fan fails or the ambient temperature rises, the system fan speed is increased automatically to
avoid increase in temperature in the server, ensuring stable server operation.
● High Reliability Tools
High reliability tools offer stable system operation. For information about high reliability tools, refer to
"1.2.2 High Reliability Tools" (
pg.19).
■ High-speed Processing
●
64-bit Intel® Xeon™ Processors
14
The server can have up to two 64-bit Intel® Xeon™ processors for high-speed data processing (one
processor in standard servers). The server supports the Hyper-Threading function that uses one physical
CPU as two logical CPUs, providing high-efficiency and high-speed processing.
PRIMERGY TX200 S2 User ’s Guide
● PCI-X
The server uses PCI-X buses with a maximum data transfer speed of 1066MB/sec.
● Ultra320 SCSI
The Ultra320 SCSI interface, which provides a maximum data transfer speed of 320MB/sec, is
supported, ensuring high-speed data transfer during disk access.
■ Excellent Scalability
●
Maximum Memory Size of 6GB
In addition to the preinstalled 512MB memory, the system has three memory banks for supporting up to
6GB memory.
● Maximum Hard Disk Size of 2700GB
Up to six internal hard disk units can be installed in the 3.5-inch storage bays. When the internal hard
disk unit bay conversion kit is used, three hard disk units can be added in the 5-inch storage bays. Thus,
the server can have up to nine hard disk units. The hard disk size can be increased up to 2700GB.
1
Overview
● Five PCI Slots
The server has five PCI slots, including 64-bit, 133MHz PCI-X slots. Functions can be added by using
expansion cards.
● Three 5-inch Internal Option Bays
The server has three 5-inch storage bays to accommodate up to two 5-inch internal options for an
increasing amount of data (one bay is used for the standard CD-ROM drive unit).
● Rack Mount Type
With the Rack Conversion kit for TX200S2, the server can be installed on a rack.

● Configuration File (SerStartBatch.ini)
A configuration file stores the server setup information configured in ServerStart. To create a
configuration file, use the ServerStart floppy disk supplied with this server. Store only one file on each
floppy disk. Do not set the ServerStart floppy disk to the write-protected state.
You can use any name for the configuration file. However, the file must be installed in the server as
"SerStartBatch.ini". When installing the configuration file, make sure to save it as "SerStartBatch.ini" on
the ServerStart floppy disk.
Start up ServerStart, insert the ServerStart floppy disk containing "SerStartBatch.ini", and click [Start] to
install the server.
■ Intuitive User Interface
The intuitive user interface allows you to easily set the necessary information.
● Main Window
When ServerStart is started, the following window appears. The window and tool bar differ depending
on the mode.

■ Network Configuration
ServerStart can configure a network at server installation.
For details on available network patterns, refer to "Using ServerStart to Configure the Network".
■ Automatic Driver Installation
Recommended drivers for automatically recognized expansion cards are installed with the server. This
prevents possible mistakes in driver installation, such as installation of an older version or drivers which
were not supplied with this server.
■ Automatic RAID Configuration
When an array controller card is used, specify the RAID type and the number of hard disk units before
starting installation. A storage system can be configured without starting the RAID utility.
■ Remote Installation
ServerStart can be store resources necessary for installation, such as the OS and Service Pack, in a
different server on the network and install the OS via the network. This method is used when the server
does not have a CD-ROM or floppy disk drive.
SystemcastWizard Professional (optional) is a useful tool for extracting a lot of files in a short time.
1.2.2 High Reliability Tools
High reliability tools are a comprehensively useful set of software for stable system operations of the
server. The following tools have respective roles to manage normal operations or recovery from errors:
• Server monitoring tools
• System diagnosis support tools
• LAN driver detailed setting tools
1
Overview
■ Server Monitoring Tools
The server monitoring tools monitor the hardware status on behalf of the administrator and notify him/
her in the event of an error.
● Detecting a Server Failure Early [ServerView]
ServerView is software that monitors whether the server hardware is in a normal state to protect
important server resources. When using ServerView, the server hardware is monitored all the time. If an
error that could cause trouble is detected, the administrator is notified in real-time. This allows the server
administrator to remove a system error early and avoid trouble.
● Array Configuration / Disk Management [RAID Management Tool]
RAID Management Tool is software that perform array configurations, disk initialization and storage
system monitoring. When an event occurs, it leaves an event log in the event viewer's application logs.
At the same time, a pop-up window indicates a hard disk failure, rebuild status, etc.
19
Chapter 1 Overview
■ System Diagnosis Support Tools
The system diagnosis support tools are for supporting system diagnosis during normal operation or in
the event of trouble.
● Solving Problems Early [DSNAP]
DSNAP is a command line utility for collectively acquiring failure investigation information. It makes
easy to collect system file configuration information, setting major registries, and command line
operation of the event log. When a problem occurs in your Windows Server 2003 / Windows 2000
Server system, DSNAP is used for a maintenance engineer to understand your system software
configuration and settings correctly and to promote research smoothly. Provide this with memory dump
to your maintenance engineer.
■ LAN Driver Detailed Setting Tools
These tools set details on the LAN, including the use of the Teaming (load balance) function and VLAN
configuration.
● Intel
®
PROSet
Intel® PROSet is a tool for setting details on the LAN card when it is used with another LAN card or the
onboard LAN for using the Teaming function or when it is used for configuring a VLAN.
● Broadcom Advanced Control Suite (BACS)
BACS is a tool for setting details on the onboard LAN when it is used to configure a VLAN.
