Introduction: Dell PowerEdge 4400 Systems Installation and Troubleshooting
Guide
Dell PowerEdge 4400 computer systems are high-speed servers that offer significant
service and upgrade features. These systems include the following service features to make
troubleshooting and repair easy and effective:
- Embedded server management hardware, which monitors temperatures and voltages throughout
the system and notifies you if the system overheats, if a system cooling fan malfunctions,
or if a power supply fails
- Hot-plug power supplies and cooling fans
- Hot-plug replacement of PCI expansion cards
- Hot-plug replacement of hard-disk drives (if a redundant arrays of independent disks
(RAID) controller is installed)
The Dell PowerEdge 4400 system chassis simplifies removing and replacing computer
components. You can perform processor and memory upgrades without removing the system
board. The Dell-designed small computer system interface (SCSI) backplane board and
hard-disk drive carriers eliminate the extensive cabling and drive configuration usually
required for a SCSI subsystem.
The following upgrade options are offered for the Dell PowerEdge 4400 systems:
- An integrated dual-channel RAID controller with battery-backed cache
- A third power supply for redundant power capability
- A Dell OpenManage Remote Assistant Card 2 (DRAC2) for advanced
server management
