Introduction
1-5
Redundant Hot Plug Fan
ProLiant 8500 servers include a redundant hot-plug system fan. If the primary
fan fails, it generates a system alert and triggers the secondary (or redundant)
fan to take over automatically. The redundant hot-plug system fan protects the
various server components from overheating and possible system interruption.
Internal Hot Plug Drive Bays
■
Supports four, 1-inch, Wide Ultra2 SCSI hard drives
■
Drives may be of any storage capacity, but must be mounted on Compaq
hot-plug drive trays.
■
Internal drives are controlled by a Dual Channel Integrated Smart Array
Controller. See Chapter 5, “SCSI Setup” for a description of the
integrated controller.
Fixed Internal Media Drive Bays
■
Supports two non-hot-plug media drive bays:
±
One third-height drive bay occupied by 1.44-MB diskette drive
±
One third-height drive bay occupied by IDE CD-ROM drive
Disk Controllers
The Compaq ProLiant 8500 server is provided with an Dual Channel
Integrated Smart Array Controller. This controller provides two Wide Ultra2
SCSI controllers. One controller is dedicated to the internal drive bay. The
other controller is connected to the external SCSI connector. See Chapter 5,
“SCSI Setup” for descriptions of the features and array set-up procedures for
these controllers
