The Operating Manual for the servers of the SE Series consists of a number of modules and describes the features
and hardware components of the FUJITSU Servers BS2000 of the SE Series. Users should read this manual
carefully in order to obtain optimal performance from the SE server.
Readers require a knowledge of BS2000 system operation and administration as well as basic knowledge of Linux.
In some places knowledge of X2000 is helpful. This can be obtained from the “Operation and Administration”
manual [ ].
This manual is intended for people who operate an SE server:
As administrator you manage the entire SE server with all its components and the operating systems which run
on it. You need a good knowledge of the BS2000, Linux and Windows operating systems and of the network and
peripherals.
As administrator you can also manage the integration of the optional Application Units on which an open
operating system runs in Native or virtualized mode (e.g. under VMware).
As operator you operate BS2000 on the Server Unit of the SE server. You need a good knowledge of the
BS2000 operating system and also of the connected peripherals.
As XenVM administrator you operate the virtual machines and their devices for Linux and Windows guest
systems on the Server Unit x86 of the SE server. You need a good knowledge of the Linux and Windows
