HP Integrity rx4640 server at a glance
This aggressively priced server brings you exceptional price/performance, reliability, and availability in a compact,
rack-dense design to meet the most demanding enterprise-level computing requirements. The HP Integrity rx4640
server can be equipped with up to four Intel Itanium 2 processors loaded with 6 MB of on-chip L3 cache, as much as
64 GB of RAM, and six PCI-X I/O expansion slots. With a rack-dense 4U form factor, the Integrity rx4640 server
maximizes the number of servers per rack for a better return on IT.
With a choice of operating systems, including HP-UX, Linux, Windows (in 1H 2004), and OpenVMS (Evaluation
Release, pending a production-quality release in 2H 2004), the Integrity rx4640 server gives you total flexibility. This
server also offers a pathway to the future with in-chassis upgrades to next-generation Intel Itanium 2 processors
(available in 2004) as well as the HP mx2 dual-processor module (available in 1H 2004), which doubles the Intel
Itanium 2 processor density without requiring more power or space.
The Integrity rx4640 server was designed to be easy to install, service, and maintain. It fits easily into HP 9000 server
racks, Compaq ProLiant racks, and many third-party racks, using side-mounted slides and a cable management arm
that install quickly without tools. The blue server identification LED can be activated locally or remotely for easy
physical location of problem hardware, and the quick-find LED panel speeds problem diagnosis by identifying
defective or mismatched hardware
components. And you have the option of reducing maintenance costs by repairing
the server yourself with field-replaceable parts and simple swap-out repairs.
Figure 5. You can fit up to 10 rack-optimized HP Integrity rx4640 servers into a 2-meter (40U) rack.
