High-end servers contain advanced management software that allows administrators to remotely access servers and monitor event logs, execute standard maintenance activities such as BIOS and software upgrades, and trigger planned server shutdowns. Additional administration capabilities allow users to design and manage storage devices, monitor, CPU, and disc utilization, define parameters for failure prediction, diagnose server issues, and send event notifications through e-mail, pager, or phone. Furthermore, a highly maintainable server often includes a tool-free chassis as well as hot-swappable hard drives and power supplies.
