- Remotely accessing the server, using the keyboard and mouse from a remote client - Mapping the CD or DVD drive, diskette drive, and USB flash drive on a remote client, and mapping ISO and diskette image files as virtual drives that are available for use by the server - Uploading a diskette image to the IMM memory and mapping it to the server as a virtual drive The blue-screen capture feature captures the video display contents before the IMM restarts the server when the IMM detects an operating-system hang condition. A system administrator can use the blue-screen capture to assist in determining the cause of the hang condition. • Large system-memory capabilityThe memory bus supports up to 128 GB of system memory. The memory controller supports error correcting code (ECC) for up to 16 industry-standard PC3-10600R-999 (single-rank or dual-rank), 800, 1067, and 1333 MHz, DDR3 (third-generation double-data-rate), registered, synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM) dual inline memory modules (DIMMs). • Integrated network supportThe server comes with an integrated dual-port Broadcom Gigabit Ethernet controller, which supports connection to a 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, or 1000-Mbps network. • Integrated Trust Platform ModuleThis integrated security chip performs cryptographic functions and stores private and public secure keys. It provides the hardware support for the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) specification. • Large data-storage capacity and hot-swap capabilityThe server supports a maximum of six 2.5-inch hot-swap Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) hard disk drives or hot-swap Serial ATA (SATA) hard disk drives. With the hot-swap feature, you can add, remove, or replace hard disk drives without turning off the server. • EasyLED diagnosticsEasyLED diagnostics provides LEDs to help you diagnose problems. • PCI adapter capabilitiesThe server has two PCI interface slots (one supports low-profile cards and one supports half-length, full-height cards). Both slots can support PCI Express adapters. See "Removing and installing an adapter" on page 82 for detailed information. • Redundant connectionThe addition of an optional Ethernet daughter card provides failover capability to a redundant Ethernet connection with the applicable application installed. If a problem occurs with the primary Ethernet connection and the optional Ethernet daughter card is installed on the server, all Ethernet traffic that is associated with the primary connection is automatically switched to the optional redundant Ethernet daughter card connection. If the applicable device drivers are installed, this switching occurs without data loss and without user intervention. • Redundant cooling and optional power capabilitiesThe server supports a maximum of two 675-watt hot-swap power supplies and six hot-swap fans, which provide redundancy and hot-swap capability for a typical configuration. The redundant cooling by the fans in the server enables continued operation if one of the fans fails. The server comes with one 675-watt hot-swap power supply and five fans. You can order the second optional power supply with the additional fan. • RAID support The RAID adapter provides hardware redundant array of independent disks (RAID) support to create configurations. The standard on-board or intergraded RAID adapter provides RAID levels 0, 1, and 1E. An optional RAID adapter is available for purchase that provides RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60. • Systems-management capabilitiesThe servers comes with an Integrated Management Module (IMM). When the IMM is used with the systems-management software that comes with the server, you can manage the functions of the server locally and remotely. The IMM also provides system monitoring, event recording, and network alert capability. The system-management connector provides additional security by physically separating the management network traffic from the production network. You can use the Setup utility to configure the server to use a dedicated systems-management network or a shared network. • TCP/IP offload engine (TOE) supportThe Ethernet controllers in the server support TOE, which is a technology that offloads the TCP/IP flow from the microprocessor and I/O subsystem to increase the speed of the TCP/IP flow. When an operating system that supports TOE is running on the server and TOE is enabled, the server supports TOE operation. See the operating-system documentation for information about enabling TOE. 10 ThinkServer RD210 Hardware Maintenance Manual
