Hot-Pluggable Server Technology

/ Hot-Pluggable Server Technology
NetFrame's ClusterSystem 9008 ($9995), a quad-processor Pentium Pro platform designed for remote-office, application-server, and mid-size business environments, offers hot-pluggable PCI technology, allowing users to add and replace individual PCI cards and device drivers without shutting down the system. When a new PCI card is added or replaced in the server, the OS software is notified; it then reconfigures the system to recognize the new resource without disrupting on-line users. A hinged top door provides access
to PCI slots on the I/O board, enabling users to easily swap or add standard PCI cards to the system. The ClusterSystem 9008 has room for up to eight internal Hot Plug drives, three N+1 redundant Hot Plug power supplies, and three independent cooling zones.
