Toshiba unveiled the Magnia 7000 series enterprise-class server, which offers manageability, reliability, and serviceability features that tailor the system for applications such as data-warehousing, database, I-commerce, and high-volume business processing, the company said. The Magnia 7000 supports up to four 400-MHz Intel Pentium II Xeon processors and is designed to support future Intel processors.

The 400-MHz Pentium II Xeon features either a 512KB or 1MB Level 2 cache memory, a 100-MHz front-side bus, enhanced memory architecture, and scalability advancements. "With Intel's highly scalable Pentium II Xeon processor for servers, Toshiba is addressing the performance requirements of high-end server computing environments and enterprise customers," said Tom MacDonald, marketing director at Intel's Enterprise Server Group. Magnia 7000 servers come standard with 256MB of error-correcting code (ECC), Extended Data Out (EDO) DRAM -- expandable to 4GB; six standard 3.5-inch hot-swap drive bays, 16 maximum storage bays with an optional second hot-swap cage installed, and two standard 500-watt, hot-pluggable power supplies.

For extended remote access capabilities, Emergency Management Port (EMP) software allows network management at all times from remote locations, including power on/off and console redirect. The Magnia 7000 is compatible with Microsoft Windows NT and Novell NetWare and is plug-in compatible with a variety of enterprise-level management software packages, including Computer Associates' Unicenter, Hewlett-Packard's OpenView, and Tivoli's Framework.
