LANDesk Server Control
All server configurations come with the Intel LANDesk Server Control application (for
use with Novell NetWare 3.1x or 4.x only), ready for installation on your system. The
Server Control application software operates as a background task that continuously
monitors the system until an error event occurs.
The Server Control application monitors and controls critical system hardware
conditions on the ProServa PH server. The INCA component on the baseboard
provides access to information such as temperature, voltage, chassis intrusion
(where applicable), and cooling fan status.
The application makes this information available locally through the Server Control's
Local Console and remotely through Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
The Local Console allows you to set monitoring thresholds on this data to
automatically broadcast an alert, display a message, beep the speaker, initiate a
shut-down, or hard reset the system.
The LANDesk Server Control application also controls the INCA watchdog timer that
is used to automatically reboot the server after a system crash.
Major components of the LANDesk Server Control include the Local Console
Application and the SNMP Translator. The Local Console Application provides the
user interface for setting thresholds, reading current status, and setting events for
Server Control. The Application uses the Management Interface of the service layer
for low-level interactions with the system management hardware.
The SNMP Translator is a service layer management application and a sub-agent of
the NetWare Extensible SNMP agent. It also uses the service layer to get and set
management data.
For installation and operating details, refer to the "LANDesk Server
Control - Getting Started Guide," the electronic help files provided with the Server
Control, and Appendix E, "LANDesk Server Control," in this guide.

System Expansion

As application requirements increase, you can expand the server with the following
options:
additional memory
Pentium processor upgrades
storage devices (tape drive, CD-ROM, diskette drive, hard disk drives)
Intel EtherExpress PRO/100 LAN Adapter board (standard on network
ready and high capacity configurations)
LANDesk Server Monitor Module (standard on high capacity
configurations)
