Notes for BTO with SSD The smallest capacity HDD/SSD is installed in the 1st HDD bay (as system disk) at factory.
If you use 200GB SSD as system disk and want to use 146.5GB HDD as data disk, order the 146.5GB HDD separately and install it later. When the operating system is Windows Server 2008 R2 and the memory size is 56GB or more, system disk capacity should be at least 300GB. In that case, BTO with SSD is not possible. If you want to use 200GB SSD as data disk in such a system, order the 200GB SSD separately and install it later. When the operating system is Windows Server 2012 and the memory size is 48GB or more, system disk capacity should be at least 300GB. In that case, BTO with SSD is not possible. If you want to use 200GB SSD as data disk in such a system, order the 200GB SSD separately and install it later.

8.7.3 Notes for Double Backup In a single backup configuration, in case a CPU/IO module or backup device fails, backup is not possible until the failed part is repaired or replaced. If this does not meet your system requirements, consider a double backup configuration. Refer to the following notes on double backup configuration.
When configuring two sets of a SAS controller, a SAS cable and a backup device, two backup devices are recognized separately by the OS. When scheduling an automatic backup job, make a job for each backup device so that the other backup device can backup in case one device fails. With BrightStor ARCserve Backup, backup is not executed if you enter an asterisk (*) in the group box under the destination tab when defining a job. Be sure to create two backup jobs by correctly selecting the device group for the group box, and entering an asterisk (*) or the name of the media in the media box.

Notes for using Hyper-V Brief system interruption during synchronization process In the synchronization process of CPU modules, a memory copy is performed to duplex memory on both CPU modules. Most of the memory area can be copied without interrupting the system through the so-called brownout copy method, and just a small portion requires the system to stop. However, with Hyper-V, the system cannot use the brownout copy method. Therefore, the system does not respond for a longer period of time during the synchronization process of the CPU modules than without Hyper-V. See the table below for the reference values of interruption during re-synchronization of CPU/IO modules in a Hyper-V system. It is recommended that your system design take the interruption into account. Model / Memory Size

Backup When using Hyper-V on a FT server, prepare a separate server for backup in the same way as for other general purpose servers with Hyper-V. For backup patterns, refer to each backup software company's web site.
NEC ESMPRO Agent For monitoring guest operating systems, NEC ESMPRO Agent for Guest OS is required. Contact your sales representative for this software.
Active Upgrade (For Windows Server 2008 R2 only) A team assigned to the virtual network by Hyper-V Virtual Network Manager cannot be used in Active Upgrade. To use Active Upgrade, at least one team that is not assigned to virtual network is required.
