Intel SPKA4 - Server Platform - 0 MB RAM Manuel d'utilisation

SKA4/SPKA4 Important Information

Service Partition

The service partition is a special hard disk partition. It is established when you initially set

up the server system and contains utilities, diagnostics, and other software required for

remote management. The service partition is not marked as an active partition and the

server will only boot from it by a special request. It is not normally visible to the server

user because it has a special non-standard partition type that does not appear as an

accessible file system to the end user operating system. However, low level disk utilities

can see the partition entry as an unknown type, and recognize its space.

The utilities and diagnostics on the service partition can be run locally or remotely. In

order to run the utilities and diagnostics the server must boot from the service partition.

Remote execution is available from the Direct Platform Control (DPC) Console Manager

and System Setup Utility (SSU) Client.

For complete installation instructions, see the Installation Guide for the Intel®Server

Control (747116-00x). We recommend you install the service partition before

installing an OS.
