1 Server Description
The NEC ProServa™ PH133 series of high performance Pentium® 133 MHz servers incorporate a modular
scaleable architecture that integrates a 64-bit bus interface with a Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI)
PeerBus and an Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) bus. The architecture supports symmetrical
multiprocessing (SMP) and a variety of operating systems. The bus interface is capable of handling multiple
processors with multiple cache resources in a quad-processor format.
The ProServa PH server's system board provides two central processing unit (CPU) module slots, two Error
Checking and Correcting (ECC) memory module slots, four PCI slots, and six EISA bus master slots. Four
standard peripheral bays can house optional diskette drives, tape back-up, CD-ROM (standard on some
configurations), and other mass storage devices. Six hot-docking bays provide over 12 gigabytes (GB) of storage.
The docking bays allow hot-swapping of SCSI hard disk drives without shutting down the server.
All server configurations contain a 525-watt power supply, 3 1/2-inch diskette drive, ECC memory module, and
CPU module. Several configurations contain two CPU modules, one or two 2-GB hard drives, an Intel
EtherExpress™ PRO/100B Adapter board, CD-ROM reader, Intel LANDesk Server Monitor, and a redundant
array of independent disks (RAID) controller. Figure 1-1 shows a typical server configuration. Table 1-1 lists the
server configurations.
Monitoring and control of the ProServa PH servers is provided by an onboard Interrupt Control ASIC (INCA)
component and several software applications, including Intel's LANDesk™ Server Control and LANDesk
Management Suite.
As application requirements increase, you can upgrade your system with dual or quad Pentium processors,
additional memory, additional drives and add-in expansion boards, and other peripheral devices.
