NEC Express 320Lc - Manual (Page 3)

INNOVATIVE MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE ADDS VALUE
NEC’s FT servers include innovative software that increases
the platform’s availability. Hardened drivers detect and prevent
writing beyond physical memory allocation. These drivers pro-
vide diagnostic capabilities, as well as support for duplex and
hot-swap operations. They are also certified for compliance and
digitally signed for authenticity using Microsoft procedures and
tools. NEC’s Express5800/320Lc includes NEC ESMPRO ® Server
Management Suite, which allows remote monitoring, analysis
and management of all connected NEC servers in a lights-out
environment. Also included is NEC EXPRESSBUILDER
installation software for easy setup and system management.
COMPACT DESIGN SAVES SPACE AND SIMPLIFIES
MANAGEMENT
With an all-hardware, single-server server solution with automatic
software restart and full fault tolerance, the Express5800/320Lc
maintains affordability and a compact footprint. With a total
chassis height of 7 inches and standard
19-in rack width, the rack-mountable 4U platform easily
accommodates space constraints without compromising
performance. An all-in-one solution complete with management
and installation software, the Express5800/320Lc reduces
support and maintenance costs typically associated with
multiple-server solutions and cluster configurations.
AMPLE STORAGE CAPACITY WITH NEC EXTERNAL
SUPPORT
The Express5800/320Lc supports flexible storage options from
leading storage providers, as well as NEC’s own RAID fibre
channel disk arrays. The NEC S2800, for example, delivers high-
end class performance and functionality at an affordable price
with 8 host ports (standard) and the ability to scale up to 27TB of
storage capacity and 16GB cache (8GBytes per controller). With
RAID6 double-parity technology, the S2800 achieves total
redundancy, even when two disk drives fail, providing greater
reliability and performance.
