What your server offers Your server uses the following features and technologies: v IBM Director IBM Director is a workgroup-hardware-management tool that you can use to centrally manage xSeries servers. For more information about IBM Director, see the IBM Director User's Guide on the IBM Director CD. v IBM Enterprise X-Architecture technology IBM X-Architecture technology combines proven, innovative IBM designs to make your Intel-processor-based server powerful, scalable, and reliable. For more information, go to http://www.ibm.com/pc/us/eserver/xseries/xarchitecture/enterprise/index.html. - Active™ Memory The Active Memory feature improves the reliability of memory through memory mirroring, memory scrubbing, and the Memory ProteXion™ feature. For more information, see "Active Memory" on page 7. - Large system-memory capacity The memory bus supports up to 64 GB of system memory. The memory controller supports error correcting code (ECC) for up to 32 industry-standard PC1600, 133 megahertz (MHz), 3.3 V, 168-pin, registered, double-data-rate (DDR), synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM) dual inline memory modules (DIMMs). - Memory ProteXion The Memory ProteXion feature provides the equivalent of a hot-spare drive in a RAID array. It is based in the memory controller, and it enables the server to sense when a chip on a DIMM has failed and to route the data around the failed chip. - XceL4™ Server Accelerator Cache The XceL4 Server Accelerator Cache provides 64 MB of external Level-4 cache per SMP Expansion Module, which increases memory bandwidth and reduces access time through PCI-X, Ethernet, SCSI, and Fibre Channel interfaces. v IBM ServerGuide™ Setup and Installation CD The ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD that comes with your server provides programs to help you set up your server and install the operating system. The ServerGuide program detects installed hardware options and provides the correct configuration programs and device drivers. For more information about the ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD, see "Using the ServerGuide Setup and Installation CD" on page 27. Note: If your server model came with an operating system, such as Microsoft® Windows® 2000 Datacenter Server, Windows Server 2003 Datacenter Edition, or VMware ESX server, see the software documentation provided with your software for configuration information. v Integrated network support Your server comes with an integrated Broadcom 5704 Dual Gigabit Ethernet controller, which supports connection to a 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, or 1000-Mbps network. For more information, see "Configuring the Gigabit Ethernet controller" on page 30. 4 xSeries 445 Type 8870: User's Guide
