System Security; Security With Mechanical Locks And Monitoring - Intel Columbus II Product Manual

System Security

To help prevent unauthorized entry or use of the system, the chassis includes a physical padlock
loop and a chassis intrusion switch that can be monitored by Server Management software.

Security with Mechanical Locks and Monitoring

Secure the side cover to the chassis by inserting a padlock (not provided) through the metal loop
protruding through the slot in the back edge of the side cover.
•
A padlock loop on the rear of the system side cover can be used to prevent access to the
microprocessors, memory, and add-in cards. A variety of lock sizes can be accommodated by
the .300 diameter loop.
Activate the side cover intrusion alarm switch. When the side door is opened, the switch transmits
an alarm signal to the server board, where server management software processes the signal. The
system can be programmed to respond to an intrusion by powering down or by locking the
keyboard, for example.
