y Optional ACT interconnect cabling technology can eliminate hundreds of connectors and
hundreds of feet of KVM cables per rack, while helping to increase reliability and reduce setup
time. This saves customers money in terms of KVM cabling, PDUs and KVM switches, as well as
the time necessary to manage all those cables switches. The 1U form factor allows the customer
to pack a lot of power in a small data center, while minimizing the floor space cost for all those
servers.
y The integrated systems management controller sends hardware alerts to IBM Director,
which in turn notifies the administrator of potential issues.
y Integrated systems management controllers can be linked among systems for multiserver
control, using an optional Remote Supervisor Adapter II. These adapters allow 24 servers to
be controlled remotely from one console.

y Chipkill memory is up to 16X
12
better than standard ECC memory at correcting memory
errors, which should reduce the downtime due to memory failures.
y The one-year (parts and labor) limited onsite warranty
13
(upgradable to three years) gives
your customers peace of mind and greater investment protection.
y Toolless, cover removal provides easy access to upgrades and serviceable parts. This means
less time (and therefore less money) spent servicing the e325. Toolless rails allow e325
servers to be installed more quickly and easily. Similarly, hot-swap, redundant HDDs mean
greater system uptime while these components are being serviced.
y The integrated systems management controller provides local systems management, as
well as remote support via a Remote Supervisor Adapter. The integrated systems
management controller, which works with IBM Director to help increase system availability for
users, enables IBM service personnel to use sophisticated diagnostic tools to resolve
problems quickly.

Chipkill memory is designed to detect and correct single and multibit errors, helping lead to improvements in reliability up to 16
times that of standard ECC technology. Reliability improvements depend on many factors and may be less than the maximum
stated.
