Introduction

Cool Performance Servers will run incredibly stable and have high-performance from liquid cooled components that operate well below CPU TDP. Power Saving A liquid cooled server with less fans and running at lower speeds can achieve the same performance as an air-cooled server while consuming less power. Noise Reduction Servers require a lot of high-speed, high noise fans. GIGABYTE has found a way to reduce the noise by reducing the number of fans while using a liquid cooling solution. Proven Track Record The direct liquid cooling system supplier has 20 years of experience in cooling solutions for desktops PCs & data centers. GIGABYTE has 20+ years of experience as well. Reliability Liquid cooling solutions can be monitored with little need for maintenance. GIGABYTE and liquid cooling suppliers have warranties to cover components. Ease of Use GIGABYTE servers paired with a liquid cooling kit can be mounted in a rack or connected to a building's water system. And offers quick/easy/dry disconnects. AMD EPYC 7003 Series Processors - "Milan" GIGABYTE servers and AMD EPYC 7003 Series Processors deliver the highest possible I/O throughput to pave the way for fast communication between CPU and accelerator in HPC and data analytics. High Performance OCP 3.0 Ready GIGABYTE offers servers that feature an onboard OCP 3.0 slot for the next generation of add on cards. Advantages of this new type include: Easy Serviceability: simply slot in or pull out the card, without opening the server or using tools Improved thermal design: horizontal position and optimal heat sink design allow for air cooling to eliminate the heat efficiently Power Efficiency Automatic Fan Speed Control GIGABYTE servers are enabled with Automatic Fan Speed Control to achieve the best cooling and power efficiency. Individual fan speeds will be automatically adjusted according to temperature sensors strategically placed in the servers. Cold Redundancy To take advantage of the fact that a PSU will run at greater power efficiency with a higher load, GIGABYTE has introduced a power management feature called Cold Redundancy for servers with N+1 power supplies. When the total system load falls lower than 40%, the system will automatically place one PSU into standby mode, and results of 10% improvement in efficiency. High Availability Smart Ride Through (SmaRT) To prevent server downtime and data loss as a result of loss of AC power, GIGABYTE implements SmaRT in all our server platforms. When such an event occurs, the system will throttle while maintaining availability and reducing power load. Capacitors within the power supply can supply power for 10-20ms, which is enough time to transition to a backup power source for continued operation. Smart Crises Management and Protection (SCMP) SCMP is a GIGABYTE patented feature which is deployed in servers with non-fully redundant PSU design. With SCMP, in the event of faulty PSU or overheated system, the system will force the CPU into an ultra-low power mode that reduces the power load, which prevents the system from unexpected shutdown and avoids component damage or data loss. Hardware Security Hardware-level Root of Trust (RoT) Protection is built in the silicon to ensure systems will not be vulnerable to security attacks or cyber threats. This ROT helps isolate the system as the boot process starts to verify cryptographic operations and ensures the firmware is not compromised by malware. Optional TPM 2.0 Module For hardware-based authentication, the passwords, encryption keys, and digital certificates are stored in a TPM module to prevent unwanted users from gaining access to your data. GIGABYTE TPM modules come in either a Serial Peripheral Interface or Low Pin Count bus. User Friendly Certified Ready with Software Partners Being a member of key software alliance partner programs enables GIGABYTE to together rapidly develop and validate joint solutions, enabling our customers to modernize their data centers and implement IT infrastructure and application services with speed, agility, and cost optimization. GIGABYTE servers have a compatibility across various ecosystems. Chassis Management Controller (CMC) GIGABYTE H-Series servers feature CMC* for chassis-level management and multi-node monitoring by connecting nodes internally via BMC integrated on each node to the CMC. This results in easier managment as there are less cables and network switch connections needed. * IPMI only, no iKVM functionality Ring Topology Management GIGABYTE H-Series servers feature the ability to create a "ring" connection for monitoring & management of all servers in a rack for greater cost savings and management efficiency. Value-added Management GIGABYTE offers free-of-charge management applications via a specialized small processor built on the server. GIGABYTE Management Console For management and maintenance of a server or a small cluster, users can use the GIGABYTE Management Console, which is pre-installed on each server. Once the servers are running, IT staff can perform real-time health monitoring and management on each server through the browser-based graphical user interface. In addition, the GIGABYTE Management Console also provides: - Support for standard IPMI specifications that allows users to integrate services into a single platform through an open interface - Automatic event recording, which can record system behavior 30 seconds before an event occurs, making it easier to determine subsequent actions - Integrate SAS/SATA/NVMe devices and RAID controller firmware into GIGABYTE Management Console to monitor and control Broadcom MegaRAID adapters. GIGABYTE Server Management (GSM) GSM is a software suite that can manage clusters of servers simultaneously over the internet. GSM can be run on all GIGABYTE servers and has support for Windows and Linux. GSM can be downloaded from GIGABYTE website and complies with IPMI and Redfish standards. GSM includes a complete range of system management functions that includes the following utilities: - GSM Server: A software program that provides real-time, remote control using a graphical user interface through an administrator's computer or through a server in the cluster. The software allows ease of maintenance for large clusters of servers. - GSM CLI: A command-line interface for monitoring and managing remotely. - GSM Agent: A software program installed on each GIGABYTE server node that retrieves information from each system and devices through the OS, and this software integrates with GSM Server or GSM CLI. - GSM Mobile: A mobile app for both Android and iOS that provides admins with real-time system information. - GSM Plugin: An application program interface that allows users to use VMware vCenter for real-time monitoring and management of server clusters.
