The High-speed Net Connect (HNC for short) connects the Server Unit /390 to the LAN. Furthermore, as net client the HNC permits access to the Net-Storage. The HNC is managed using the SE Manager.
The internal disks, power supply units, and fans are redundant in design and can be replaced during ongoing operation.
The rack console serves as a monitor for the Management Unit and consequently as a local access to the administrative and operating functions of the SE server. When necessary (in the event of maintenance), the rack console can also be attached to the HNC using the KVM switch.
The HNC software is preinstalled ex works.
HNC redundancy is possible as an option. Up to four HNCs can be integrated.
Detailed information on operating the HNC is provided in the "Operation and Administration" manual [7].
Detailed information on the various hardware components and interfaces of the HNC is provided in the data sheet "FUJITSU Server BS2000 SE Series".
