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.

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, resulting in a 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.

User Friendly

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

Tool-less Drive Bays Design

Clipping mechanism secures the drive in place. Install or replace a new drive in seconds.

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.

Server Management

GIGABYTE offers free-of-charge server management applications via small processor (BMC) built on the server.

Provides:

• Server health monitoring
• Remote troubleshooting
• Resource utilization monitoring
• Reduction in server downtimes

GIGABYTE Management Console

• Single server management
• Feature-rich and easy to use browser-based interface
• Integration of 3rd party applications
• Automatic recording function
• SAS / RAID controller monitoring function

GIGABYTE Server Management (GSM)

• Multiple server management platform
• Compatible w/ IPMI or Redfish
