RX600 S4 Operating manual 7
1 Preface
The PRIMERGY RX600 S4 server is an Intel-based server for mid-size and
large companies. The server is suitable for use as a file server and also as an
application, information or Internet server. It is used as a rack model.
Thanks to its highly developed hardware and software components, the server
offers a high level of data security and availability. These include hot-plug HDD
modules, hot-plug system fans and power supply units, and also hot-plug PCI
slots, the Server Management Software ServerView, "Prefailure Detection and
Analysis" (PDA) and "Automatic Server Reconfiguration and Restart" (ASR&R).
Security functions in the BIOS-Setup and on the system board protect the data
on the server against manipulation. Additional security is provided by the
lockable rack door.
The server occupies 4 height units (HU) in the rack.
