The server has an Automatic Revision Tracking (ART) feature that helps you review recent changes to the server configuration. One ART feature is the Revision History Table, which contains the hardware version number of the system board and any other system boards providing ART compatible revision information. This feature lets you determine the level of functionality of an assembly in a system without opening or powering down the unit.

Storage Fault Recovery Tracking This feature tracks over 12 failure-indication parameters, such as timeouts, spin-up, and self-test errors, of SCSI drives. You can use these parameters to pinpoint failed storage subsystem components and to recover from controller or hard drive failure.
