Server Console Switch – Compaq Server Console Switches allow multiple servers in a rack to
be accessed and managed by a single keyboard, mouse, and monitor. These switches are also
known as KVM switches.
Sliding Rail – The sliding rail is a rack management system designed for Compaq 7000- and
9000-series racks that supports in-rack serviceability for ProLiant DL320 servers.
UID LED and Switch – The blue Unit Identification LED identifies the ProLiant DL320 server
requiring service. A UID switch toggles both the front and rear UID LEDs simultaneously.
Wake on LAN (WOL) – WOL enables a remote restart of the server.
Power, Thermal, and Weight Information
Power, thermal, and weight considerations are the most important parameters in high-volume
server deployment. Table 5 provides server parameters necessary to calculate the power needs,
thermal requirements, and total weight of a full rack of ProLiant DL320 servers.
