1.4.24 Virtualization function of FC card
PRIMEQUEST 2000 series supports VFC (Virtual Fiber Channel) and NPIV (N_Port ID Virtualization) which
are virtualization function of FC card.
1.4.25 Wake on LAN (WOL)
WOL is a function that turns on the power from remote control.
The PRIMEQUEST 2000 series supports WOL in all the LAN ports on the IOU.
WOL is enabled in any LAN card that is mounted in the Onboard LAN port and the PCI Express slot.
However, enabling WOL from an Onboard LAN port of the IOU requires setup by MMB Web-UI.
For details, see '1.3.9 [Partition #x] menu' in "PRIMEQUEST 2000 Series Tool Reference” (CA92344-0539).

1.4.26 sadump
sadump is provided in the PRIMEQUEST 2000 series (except for PRIMEQUEST 2800B3/2800B2/2800B) to
improve quality of PRIMEQUEST systems using Red Hat Enterprise Linux. (*1)
The memory dump can be acquired by executing sadump when error occurs irrespective of the status of the
RHEL that is operating in the PRIMEQUEST 2000 series. Then, investigation of the cause of error and
support becomes possible thereby receiving a high degree of support.
(*1) sadump is not supported on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server.
1.4.27 Green Support and Power Saving Technology
The PRIMEQUEST 2000 series provides power saving functions which help reduce power consumption for
relevant configuration with technology that is supported in the customer’s operating environment, such as
workload integration and business schedule, integration.
- Optimization of cooling by group partition in the cabinet
Achieving optimization by carefully controlling the fan rotational speed for each cooling group
- Reduction of power consumption
Using low power consumption devices (LV-DIMM, SSD), and high efficiency power (80 PLUS
PLATINUM).
With Power Saving functions, performance tuning takes place automatically when the power
consumption approaches the maximum preset value.
- Control of the device cooling airflow with flap
The flap in the cabinet is opened and closed by inserting and removing SB, Memory Scale-up Board, DU,
IOU, PSU or FANU, which can efficiently control cooling airflow.
- Based on RoHS Regulations (2011/65/EU)
