Integrated Management Log (IML) provides a detailed log of key
system events. This log is accessible through Compaq Insight Manager
and the Remote Insight Board.
Disk Management
Disk management allows the server to recover from a hard drive problem
without interrupting the server’s performance. The SCSI Managed Array
Technology (Smart) controller delivers the following functions:
■
RAID 0 – no fault tolerance
■
RAID 0+1 – drive mirroring and striping
■
RAID 1 – drive mirroring
■
RAID 5 – distributed data guarding
Compaq Insight Manager
Compaq Insight Manager is used to perform the following functions:
■
Send fault condition alerts to a predetermined destination
■
Monitor fault conditions and server performance
■
Control server security and configuration
■
Remotely control servers
■
Initiate rapid recovery services
With Compaq servers, every hardware subsystem—including disk storage,
system memory, and system processor—has a robust set of management
capabilities. Compaq Full-Spectrum Fault Management prevents faults before
they happen, keeps the system running in the unlikely event of a failure, and
delivers rapid server recovery to normal operation after a fault. See Chapter 6,
“Server Configuration and Utilities,” for more information.
Compaq System Configuration Utility
The Compaq System Configuration Utility performs a wide range of
configuration activities including:
■
Configures PCI boards automatically
■
Provides switch and jumper settings
