Security Lock (Padlock Loop) (Optional); Universal Chassis Clamp Lock (Optional); Fault Notification And Recovery; Drive Protection System - HP xw4600 Service And Technical Reference Manual

Security lock (Padlock loop) (optional)

The rear chassis panel of your workstation provides a padlock loop. A padlock can be attached in this
loop to prevent workstation access panel removal.

Universal chassis clamp lock (optional)

The universal chassis clamp lock secures the access panel to the chassis using a screw-type
attachment. A built in key lock prevents access to the securing screw. In addition, cables can be added
to the universal chassis clamp lock to secure workstation peripherals, and to secure the workstation to
the work area.

Fault notification and recovery

Fault notification and recovery features combine innovative hardware and software technology to
prevent the loss of critical data and minimize unplanned downtime.
If the workstation is connected to a network that is managed by HP Client Manager Software, the
computer sends a fault notice to the network management application. With HP Client Manager
Software, you can also remotely schedule diagnostics to automatically run on all managed PCs and
create a summary report of failed tests.

Drive Protection System

The Drive Protection System (DPS) is a diagnostic tool built into the hard drives that is installed in select
HP workstations. The DPS is designed to help diagnose problems that might result in unwarranted hard
drive replacement.
When HP workstations are built, each installed hard drive is tested using the DPS, and a permanent
record of key information is written onto each drive. Every time the DPS is run, test results are written
to the hard drive. The service provider can use this information to help diagnose conditions that required
you to run the DPS software.

ECC fault prediction

When the workstation encounters an excessive number of error checking and correcting (ECC) memory
errors, it displays a local alert message. This message contains detailed information about the errant
memory module, enabling you to take action before you experience noncorrectable memory errors. ECC
memory modules are standard on the HP xw4600 Workstation.

Thermal sensors

There are several thermal sensors in your HP xw4600 Workstation that regulate the workstation fans
to maintain an acceptable, efficient chassis temperature.

Dual-state power button

With ACPI enabled, the power button can function either as an on/off switch or as a button. This feature
does not completely turn off power, but instead causes the workstation to enter a low-power standby
state. This allows you to power of the wowrkstation without closing applications, and to return to the
same operational state without any data loss.
