A light path diagnostics panel and individual light path LEDs to quickly lead the technician to failed (or
failing) components. This panel simplifies servicing, speeds up problem resolution, and helps improve
system availability.
system availability.
Predictive Failure Analysis (PFA), which detects when system components (such as processors,
memory, and hard disk drives) operate outside of standard thresholds and generates proactive alerts
in advance of possible failure, therefore increasing uptime.
in advance of possible failure, therefore increasing uptime.
Solid-state drives (SSDs), which offer better reliability than traditional mechanical HDDs for greater
uptime.
Built-in Integrated Management Module II (IMM2) continuously monitors system parameters, triggers
alerts, and performs recovering actions in case of failures to minimize downtime.
Built-in diagnostics using Dynamic Systems Analysis (DSA) Preboot speeds up troubleshooting
tasks to reduce service time.
Three-year customer replaceable unit and on-site limited warranty, next business day 9x5. Optional
service upgrades are available.
Manageability and security
Powerful systems management features simplify local and remote management of the x440:
The x440 includes an Integrated Management Module II (IMM2) to monitor server availability and
perform remote management.
An integrated industry-standard Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) enables improved
setup, configuration, and updates, and simplifies error handling.
Integrated Trusted Platform Module (TPM) V1.2 support enables advanced cryptographic
functionality, such as digital signatures and remote attestation.
Industry-standard AES NI support for faster and stronger encryption.
Integrates with the IBM Flex System Manager for proactive systems management. It offers
comprehensive systems management for the entire IBM Flex System platform, which increases
uptime, reduces costs, and improves productivity through advanced server management capabilities.

IBM Fabric Manager simplifies the deployment of infrastructure connections by managing network
and storage address assignments.
Intel Execute Disable Bit functionality can prevent certain classes of malicious buffer overflow attacks
when combined with a supporting operating system.
Intel Trusted Execution Technology provides enhanced security through hardware-based resistance
to malicious software attacks, allowing an application to run in its own isolated space protected from
all other software running on a system.
all other software running on a system.
Energy efficiency
The x440 offers the following energy-efficiency features to save energy, reduce operational costs,
increase energy availability, and contribute to a green environment:
increase energy availability, and contribute to a green environment:
Component-sharing design of the IBM Flex System chassis provides ultimate power and cooling
savings.
The Intel Xeon processor E5-4600 product family offers better performance over the previous
generation while fitting into the same TDP limits.
Intel Intelligent Power Capability powers individual processor elements on and off as needed, to
reduce power draw.
