TX2560 M2 / RX2560 M2 Operating Manual 17
Functional overview
Accessible drives / components
With most configurations the TX2560 M2 / RX2560 M2 offers 3 x 1.6” bay in the
accessible drives area located at the top of the tower server (or at the right side
of the rack) for various ODD and or backup drives.
USB connectors
Two USB 3.0 connectors on the front of the device support activities carried out
by the service technician. The maximum length of the external cable is two
meters for the USB connectors on the front.
Another four USB connectors are available on the rear of the device
(2x USB 3.0 and 2x USB 2.0).
Power supply
In its basic configuration, the server has a hot-pluggable power supply unit that
adjusts automatically to any power voltage in the range from 100 V to 240 V
(Platinum) or 200 V to 240 V (Titanium). As an option, the power supply can be
expanded with an extra power supply unit to create a redundant power supply.
If a power supply unit fails, the redundant configuration assures continued
operation. The defective power supply unit can be replaced during operation
(for further details see the "FUJITSU Server PRIMERGY TX2560 M2 / RX2560
M2 Server Upgrade and Maintenance Manual").
Advanced Thermal Design
The Advanced Thermal Design option allows you to operate the system with a
wider temperature range either of 5 °C to 40 °C or 5 °C to 45 °C, depending on
your system and configuration.
VCAUTION
In a system that is configured with Advanced Thermal Design, only
certain components which support the respectively increased higher
operating temperature range may be installed and used. For applicable
restrictions, please refer to the official configurator tool.
This option can only be ordered from the
manufacturer and is indicated by the respective
logo on the identification rating plate.

18 Operating Manual TX2560 M2 / RX2560 M2
Functional overview
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 memory modules used support SDDC technology (Chipkill™), which
further increases the effectiveness of memory error monitoring and correction.
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
replacement bank is activated (provided it has been configured for appropriately
in the BIOS). The deactivated memory bank is no longer used and the faulty
memory module can be replaced at the next opportunity. In order to be able to
use the hot-spare memory function, all occupied memory banks should be
equipped with identical memory modules.
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.
ASR&R (Automatic Server Reconfiguration and Restart) restarts the system in
the event of an error and automatically "hides" the defective system
components.
The PDA (Prefailure Detection and Analysis) technology from Fujitsu analyzes
and monitors all components that are critical for system reliability.
The SAS/SATA RAID controller supports different RAID levels and increase the
availability and data security of the system.
