1.3 Performance features
Customer Self Service (CSS)
The Fujitsu Technology Solutions Customer Self Service (CSS) concept
enables you to identify and replace the affected component yourself in the case
of certain error scenarios.
In the CSS concept, you can replace the following components yourself in the
event of an error:
– Hot-plug hard disk drives
– Hot-plug power supply units
– Memory modules
– System fans
– Expansion cards
For information on replacing these components, see chapter “CSS compo-
nents” on page 85.
CSS indicators on the control panel and on the back of the PRIMERGY server
provide you with information if a CSS event arises (for more information on the
behavior of these indicators, see chapter “Installation and operation” on
page 59 and the "PRIMERGY ServerView Suite Local Service Concept - LSC"
manual on the PRIMERGY ServerView Suite DVD 2).
You can also fit your server with a ServerView Local Service Panel, which
enables you to identify the type of component affected by the error directly on
the server (for more information, see the "PRIMERGY ServerView Suite Local
Service Concept - LSC" manual on the PRIMERGY ServerView Suite DVD 2).
In addition, CSS errors are displayed in the ServerView Operations Manager,
the server management software from Fujitsu Technology Solutions.
In the event of errors, the ServerView Operations Manager refers you directly
to the affected component and its order information in the Illustrated Spares
catalog of the server in question.

Preface Performance features
System board
The features of the system board are described in the technical manual for the
system board D2709 for the hardware and in the BIOS Setup manual for the
firmware.
Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
A Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for safer storage of keys can be implemented
as an option. This module enables programs from third party manufacturers to
store key information (e.g. drive encryption using Windows Bitlocker Drive
Encryption).
The TPM is activated via the BIOS system (for more information, refer to the
Fujitsu Technology Solutions BIOS manual).
VCAUTION!
– When using the TPM, note the program descriptions provided by the
third party manufacturers.
– You must also create a backup of the TPM content. To do this, follow
the third party manufacturer's instructions. Without this backup, if the
TPM or the system board is faulty you will not be able to access your
data.
– If a failure occurs, please inform your service about the TPM
activation before it takes any action, and be prepared to provide them
with your backup copies of the TPM content.
Slots for expansion cards
The server can be expanded flexibly via six slots (one 32-bit PCI, two
PCIe Gen2 x8, and three PCIe Gen2 x4).
PCIe Gen2 doubles the bandwidth of currently existing PCIe busses and allows
improved system performance.

TX200 S5 Operating Manual 15
Preface Performance features
Power supply
In its basic configuration the server has a permanently installed power supply
unit or a hot-plug power supply unit that adjusts automatically to any mains
voltage in the range 100 V - 240 V. Besides the hot-plug power supply unit, a
second hot-plug power supply unit can be installed optionally to serve as a
redundantpowersupply.If onepower supplyunit fails,thesecond powersupply
unit in the redundant configuration ensures operation can continue uninter-
rupted. The faulty power supply unit can be replaced during operation (for
further details see section “Hot-plug power supply units (optional)” on page 86).
Cooling
In the standard configuration the server is cooled by two system fans and one
power supply fan.
In the optional, redundant configurationthe server is cooled by four system fans
(two double fans) and one or two power supply fans. If one of the four system
fans fails, one of the two predetermined fans (system fan 3 and system fan 4,
see the "Options Guide" for the system) increases its power to ensure that the
server is cooled properly.

16 OperatingManual TX200 S5
Performance features Preface
High level of availability and data security
When memory data is accessed, 1-bit errors are identified in the main memory
and automatically corrected with the error correcting code (ECC) method. The
patented memory scrubbing function regularly starts up the EDC mechanism,
ensuring continuous data integrity.
The RDIMM memory modules used support SDDC technology (Chipkill™),
which further increases the effectiveness of memory error monitoring and
correction.
Memory modules can be protected against failure by mirroring (Memory
Mirroring). Memory Mirroring is roughly comparable to RAID level 1 for hard
disk arrays. The basic configuration requires two identical memory modules in
two different banks.
Support is likewise provided for hot-spare memory technology, in which a
memory bank is used like a replacement bank. If a memory module fails, the
bank with the defective memory is automatically deactivated and the
replacementbankis activated(providedithas beenconfiguredfor appropriately
in the BIOS). The deactivated memory bank is no longer used and the faulty
memory module can be replaced during the next system maintenance. In order
to be able to use the hot-spare memory function, all occupied memory banks be
equipped with identical memory modules.
ASR&R (Automatic Server Reconfiguration and Restart) restarts the system in
the event of an error and automatically "hides" the defective system compo-
nents.
The PDA (Prefailure Detection and Analysis) technology from Fujitsu
Technology Solutions analyzes and monitors all components that are critical for
system reliability.
Optional RAID controllers support RAID levels 0, 1 and 5 and increase system
availability.
The hot-plug HDD modules provide additional availability.

ServerView Remote Management
ServerView Remote Management is the remote management solution from
Fujitsu Technology Solutions for PRIMERGY servers. ServerView Remote
Management and the relevant hardware components integrated on the system
board allow remote monitoring and maintenance as well as fast restoration of
operation in the event of errors.
Remote monitoring and maintenance avoids time-consuming and costly on-site
repairs and reduces service costs. This leads to a reduction in the total cost of
ownership and an excellent return on investment for the remote management
solution.
The administrator can access all system information and information from the
sensors such as fan speeds or voltages via the iRMC S2's Web interface (see
section “iRMC S2 with integrated service LAN port” on page 17). He can also
