Introducing
the
xSeries
226
Type
8648
server
The
IBM
®
Eserver
xSeries
226
Type
8648
server
is
a
high-performance
server
based
on
IBM
X-Architecture
technologies.
It
is
ideally
suited
for
networking
environments
that
require
superior
microprocessor
performance,
improved
systems
management
as
well
as
flexible
memory
and
data
management.
Performance,
ease
of
use,
reliability,
and
expansion
capabilities
were
key
considerations
in
the
design
of
your
server.
These
design
features
make
it
possible
for
you
to
customize
the
system
hardware
to
meet
your
needs
today
and
provide
flexible
expansion
capabilities
for
the
future.
Your
server
contains
IBM
Enterprise
X-Architecture
technologies,
which
help
increase
performance,
reliability,
and
availability.
For
more
information
about
the
IBM
X-Architecture
technologies
and
features
in
your
server,
see
“What
your
server
offers”
on
page
4
and
“Reliability,
availability,
and
serviceability”
on
page
5.

What
your
server
offers
Your
server
uses
the
following
features
and
technologies:
v
High-performance
graphics
adapter
Your
server
supports
a
high-performance
graphics
adapter
in
PCI
slot
1
on
the
system
board.
This
high-performance
adapter
supports
high
resolutions
and
includes
many
performance-enhancing
features
for
your
operating-system
environment.
v
IBM
Enhanced
Diagnostics
CD
Your
server
comes
with
a
IBM
Enhanced
Diagnostics
CD,
which
you
can
use
to
diagnose
problems.
v
IBM
Director
IBM
Director
is
a
workgroup-hardware-management
tool
that
you
can
use
to
centrally
manage
xSeries
servers.
For
more
information,
see
the
IBM
Director
documentation
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/.
v
IBM
ServerGuide
Setup
and
Installation
CD
The
ServerGuide
Setup
and
Installation
CD
provides
programs
to
help
you
set
up
your
server
and
install
a
32-bit
Windows
®
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
18.
v
Integrated
network
support
Your
server
comes
with
an
integrated
Broadcom
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
25.
v
Large
data-storage
and
hot-swap
capabilities
Some
server
models
support
up
to
three
25.4-mm
(1-inch)
slim-high,
3.5-inch
hot-swap
hard
disk
drives
in
the
hot-swap
bays.
With
the
hot-swap
feature,
you
can
add,
remove,
or
replace
hard
disk
drives
without
turning
off
the
server.
v
Large
system-memory
capacity
Your
server
supports
up
to
4
GB
of
system
memory.
The
memory
controller
supports
error
correcting
code
(ECC)
for
up
to
four
industry-standard,
2.5
V,
184-pin,
double-data-rate
(DDR),
PC2700
or
PC2-3200
unbuffered,
synchronous
dynamic
random
access
memory
(SDRAM)
dual
inline
memory
modules
(DIMMs).
v
Redundant
connection
The
addition
of
an
optional
network
interface
card
(NIC)
provides
a
failover
capability
to
a
redundant
Ethernet
connection.
If
a
problem
occurs
with
the
primary
Ethernet
connection,
all
Ethernet
traffic
associated
with
the
primary
connection
is
automatically
switched
to
the
redundant
NIC.
If
the
applicable
device
drivers
are
installed,
this
switching
occurs
without
data
loss
and
without
user
intervention.
v
ServeRAID
support
Your
server
supports
ServeRAID
adapters
to
create
redundant
array
of
independent
disks
(RAID)
configurations.
In
addition,
your
server
also
has
integrated
RAID
levels
0
and
1
support.

v
System
data
protection
For
increased
security,
the
hot-swap
drives
and
filler
panels
are
locked
in
the
server
by
a
hot-swap
lock
bar.
The
hot-swap
lock
bar
cannot
be
released
to
allow
installation
and
removal
of
the
hot-swap
drives
and
filler
panels
unless
the
key
lock
on
the
server
side
cover
is
unlocked.
.
v
Systems-management
capabilities
Your
server
supports
an
optional
Remote
Supervisor
Adapter
II.
This
adapter,
when
used
with
the
systems-management
software
that
comes
with
your
server,
enables
you
to
manage
the
functions
of
the
server
locally
and
remotely.
The
Remote
Supervisor
Adapter
II
also
provides
system
monitoring,
event
recording,
and
dial-out
alert
capability.
See
the
documentation
that
comes
with
your
systems-management
software
for
more
information.
To
order
an
optional
Remote
Supervisor
Adapter
II,
contact
your
IBM
marketing
representative
or
authorized
reseller.
Reliability,
availability,
and
serviceability
Three
important
server
design
features
are
reliability,
availability,
and
serviceability
(RAS).
The
RAS
features
help
to
ensure
the
integrity
of
the
data
that
is
stored
in
your
server,
the
availability
of
the
server
when
you
need
it,
and
the

LED
When

it
indicates
that
the
diskette
drive
is
in
use.
Hard
disk
drive
activity
LED
When
this
LED
is
flashing,
it
indicates
that
a
hard
disk
drive
is
in
use.
Hot-swap
hard
disk
drive
activity
LED
(some
models)
On
SCSI
hot-swap
server
models,
each
hot-swap
drive
has
a
hard
disk
drive
activity
LED.
When
this
green
LED
is
flashing,
it
indicates
that
the
drive
is
in
use.
Hot-swap
hard
disk
drive
status
LED
(some
models)
On
SCSI
hot-swap
server
models,
each
hot-swap
hard
disk
drive
has
an
amber
status
LED.
If
the
status
LED
for
a
drive
is
lit
continuously,
it
indicates
that
the
individual
drive
is
faulty.
The
interpretation
of
a
flashing
status
LED
depends
on
the
SCSI
controller
that
is
connected
to
the
hot-swap
drive,
as
follows:
When
the
drive
is
connected
to
an
optional
ServeRAID
adapter,
a
slowly
flashing
(one
flash
per
second)
status
LED
indicates
that

When
the
LED
is
flashing
rapidly
(three
flashes
per
second),
it
indicates
that
the
controller
on
the
adapter
is
identifying
the
drive.
Power-on
LED
When
this
LED
is
lit
and
not
flashing,
it
indicates
that
the
server
is
turned
on.
When
this
LED
is
flashing,
it
indicates
that
the
server
is
off
and
still
connected
to
an
ac
power
source.
Power-control
button
Press
this
button
to
turn
the
server
on
and
off
manually.
System-error
LED
When
this
amber
LED
is
lit,
it
indicates
that
a
system
error
has
occurred.
An
LED
on
the
system
board
might
also
be
lit
to
help
isolate
the
error.

Server
power
features
When
the
server
is
connected
to
an
ac
power
source
but
is
not
turned
on,
the
operating
system
does
not
run,
and
all
core
logic
is
shut
down;
however,
the
server
can
respond
to
remote
requests
to
turn
on
the
server.
The
power-on
LED
flashes
to
indicate
that
the
server
is
connected
to
an
ac
power
source
but
is
not
turned
on.
Note:
When
the
server
is
connected
to
an
ac
power
source,
the
power
supply
fan
turns
on
and
remains
on
to
provide
cooling
to
the
power
supply.
Turning
on
the
server
Approximately
20
seconds
after
the
server
is
connected
to
ac
power,
the
power-control
button
becomes
active,
and
you
can
turn
on
the
server
and
start
the
operating
system
by
pressing
the
power-control
button.
The
server
can
also
be
turned
on
in
any
of
the
following
ways:
v
If
a
power
failure
occurs
while
the
server
is
turned
on,
the
server
will
restart
automatically
when
power
is
restored.
v
If
your
operating
system
supports
the
systems-management
software
for
an
optional
Remote
Supervisor
Adapter
II,
the
systems-management
software
can
turn
on
the
server.
v
If
your
operating
system
supports
the
Wake
on
LAN
feature,
the
Wake
on
LAN
feature
can
turn
on
the
server.
v
If
an
optional
Remote

II
is
installed
in
the
server,
the
server
can
be
turned
on
from
the
Remote

Note:
When
4
GB
or
more
of
memory
(physical
or
logical)
is
installed,
some
memory
is
reserved
for
various
system
resources
and
is
unavailable
to
the
operating
system.
The
amount
of
memory
that
is
reserved
for

depends
on
the

the
configuration
of

you
must
disconnect

Using
the
ServerGuide
Setup
and
Installation
CD
The
ServerGuide
Setup
and
Installation
CD
includes
an
easy-to-use
setup
and
installation
program
that
is
designed
for
your
IBM
server.
The
ServerGuide
program
detects
the
server
model
and
hardware
options
that
are
installed
and
uses
that
information
during
setup
to
configure
the
hardware.
The
ServerGuide
program
simplifies
operating-system
installations
by
providing
updated
device
drivers
and,
in
some
cases,
installing
them
automatically.
Note:
The
ServerGuide
program
works
only
with
32-bit
Windows
operating
systems.
If
the
ServerGuide
program
did
not
come
with
your
server,
or
if
a
later
version
of
the
ServerGuide
program
is
available,
you
can
download
a
free

of
the
ServerGuide

The
ServerGuide
program
stores
information
about
the
server
model,
service
processor,
hard
disk
drive
controllers,
and
network
adapters.
Then,
the
program
checks
the

This
information
is
stored
and
then
passed
to
the
