Standard Server Features Table 1-2 describes the server's standard features. Table 1-2. Standard Server Features ProServa PH SMP-2/133 High Availability System Intel Pentium 133-MHz 2-way SMP pro.
Interrupt and Control ASIC (INCA) Onboard Interrupt and Control ASIC (INCA) provides PCI interrupt control. An integrated automatic APIC sensor is capable of full dual-Pentium and quad-Pentium processor symmetric multi-processing support. An INCA component provides support for PCI arbitration, interrupt steering, and a second I/O APIC.
Additional details are given in Appendix C, "Technical Reference." Chassis The server system ’ s electro - galvanized metal chassis minimizes EMI/RFI.

power on or off. Reset push - button switch: when pressed, resets the system and causes the power - on self test (POST) to run. Front panel status lights: Top light (power on/off): when lit, indicates the presence of DC power in the system. The light goes out when the power is turned off or the power source is disrupted.

disable writing to the diskette drive. If you set the user password, but not the administrative password, the BIOS requires you to enter the user password before you can boot the server or run the SCU. If you set both passwords, entering either one lets you boot the server or enable the keyboard and mouse.
Power Supply The auto - ranging 525 watt power supply, designed to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), provides sufficient power for the system.
add-in boards and software in your server. PCI Expansion Slots The four PCI bus slots on the system board provide for expansion and performance enhancement. One slot is in line with a processor module slot; if you install a processor module in this slot, you cannot use the PCI slot.
By increasing the buffer size of the onboard video memory from 512 KB to 1 MB (with one, 40-pin 256 K x 16, 70 ns fast-page DRAM), the controller can support 132- column text modes and high resolution graphics with a maximum of 1024 x 768 x 64 K colors.
memory module. The two modules provide up to 768 MB of high-speed memory. Each module has three memory banks. Each bank consists of four SIMM sockets. Each socket can hold an 8, 16, or 32 MB approved fast-page parity SIMM. You can install any size SIMM in any bank but all four SIMMs in a bank must be the same size .

and negative, on server behavior. You can track such parameters as CPU use, disk reads, and cache buffers. You can also monitor server physical parameters (temperature, power supply voltage) and receive information about server status, even when the server or network is down.
LANDesk Server Control. Both applications require loading on your system's hard disk, and can only be used with Novell NetWare 3.1x or 4.x. See the application's documentation for complete installation and operation procedures. Each application is briefly described in the following paragraphs.
Suite documentation. LANDesk Server Control All server configurations come with the Intel LANDesk Server Control application (for use with Novell NetWare 3.1x or 4.x only), ready for installation on your system. The Server Control application software operates as a background task that continuously monitors the system until an error event occurs.
Mylex Disk Array RAID Controller (standard on dual and quad processor high availability configurations). Descriptions of the adapter board, monitor module, and RAID controller are included earlier in this chapter.
See Chapter 3, "Using System Utilities," for additional information on using the SCU, recovering the BIOS, and updating the BIOS. Feature Description Error detection During initialization, system emits beep codes (before video initialization) and displays messages to identify problem.
