Installing the server

Figure 11: The PCI CAN bus controller

The CAN bus connector is located on the connection panel of the CAN bus 
controller board (inserted into a PCI slot) on the back of the server (see figure 11 
on page 30 and figure 13 on page 36).

Optical fiber transmission can be used to bridge longer distances between the 
PRIMERGY server and the PRIMERGY S40-DF, i.e. the CAN bus connection 
is made via multi mode fiber technology (for further information, see the 
documentation for CAN-MMF).

ServerView uses the CAN bus for communication with the clients.

This involves setting up ServerView, including the corresponding agents, in the 
group of servers and storage subsystems to be monitored. ServerView can then 
receive information on the status of the fans, temperature and other important 
system components from all the members in the group (e.g. the storage 
subsystem) via the CAN bus. ServerView evaluates this information and edits it 
for the administrator (Manager) for display or forwarding. Refer to the 
ServerView manual for more information (see “Related publications” on 
page 125).

I

A retrofitted PCI CAN bus controller will be identified by ServerView after 
an update of the installed ServerView Client only.
