Key featuresThe System x3250 M6 server is a compact, cost-effective, single-processor 1U rack server that has beenoptimized to provide enterprise-class features to small-to-medium-sized businesses, retail stores, ordistributed enterprises.Scalability and performanceThe System x3250 M6 offers numerous features to boost performance and improve scalability:
The Intel Xeon processor E3-1200 v5 product family improves productivity by offering 4-coreprocessors with up to 3.7 GHz core speeds and up to 8 MB of cache to provide affordable single-socket system performance.
Choice of processors with up to four cores and up to eight threads to enable the effectiveuse of multithreaded applications.Intelligent and adaptive system performance with Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 allowsprocessor cores to run at maximum speeds during peak workloads by temporarily goingbeyond processor thermal design power (TDP).Intel Hyper-Threading Technology boosts performance for multithreaded applications byenabling simultaneous multithreading within each processor with up to two threads per core.Intel Virtualization Technology integrates hardware-level virtualization hooks that allowoperating system vendors to better use the hardware for virtualization workloads.
Up to four 2133 MHz DDR4 ECC UDIMMs provide speed, availability, and capacity of up to 64 GB.Flexible and scalable internal storage configurations provide up to 48 TB of storage capacity in acompact 1U form factor.The 12 Gbps SAS internal storage connectivity doubles the data transfer rate compared to 6 GbSAS solutions to maximize the performance of storage I/O-intensive applications.The use of solid-state drives (SSDs) instead of, or along with, traditional spinning hard disk drives(HDDs) can significantly improve I/O performance.The server has two integrated Gigabit Ethernet ports and supports optional 10 Gb EthernetPCIe adapters for high-speed network communications.The server offers two PCI Express (PCIe) 3.0 I/O expansion slots that offer increased I/O bandwidthin a dense 1U rack form factor.With Intel Integrated I/O Technology, the PCI Express 3.0 controller is integrated into the Intel Xeonprocessor E3-1200 v5 product family. Such integration reduces I/O latency and increases overallsystem performance.
Availability and serviceabilityThe System x3250 M6 provides many features to simplify serviceability and increase system uptime:
The server supports UDIMM memory with ECC protection which provides error correction notavailable in PC-class "servers" that use parity memory. Avoiding system crashes (and data loss)due to soft memory errors means greater system uptime.Tool-less cover removal provides easy access to upgrades and serviceable parts, such as memoryand adapters.A choice of affordable onboard SATA RAID or advanced hardware RAID redundancy, along withhot-swap drives (select models), offers data protection and greater system uptime.The server offers redundant hot-swap power supplies (select models) to provide availability forbusiness-critical applications.Predictive Failure Analysis (PFA) in the System x3250 M6 detects when system components(processors, memory, and battery) operate outside standard thresholds and generates proactivealerts in advance of possible failure, thereby increasing uptime.
Lenovo System x3250 M6 (Intel Xeon E3-1200 v5, Core i3, Pentium/Celeron G Series Processors) 2
The use of SSDs can provide better reliability than the use of traditional HDDs, for greater uptime.Built-in Integrated Management Module II (IMM2.1) continuously monitors system parameters,triggers alerts, and performs recovery actions in case of failure, to minimize downtime.Built-in diagnostics using Dynamic Systems Analysis (DSA) Preboot speed up troubleshooting toreduce service time.
Manageability and securityPowerful systems management features simplify local and remote management of the System x3250 M6:
The server includes an Integrated Management Module II (IMM2.1) to monitor server availability andperform remote management.An integrated industry-standard Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) enables improvedsetup, configuration, and updates, and simplifies error handling.Lenovo offers ToolsCenter software tools at no additional cost that can help customers set up, use,and maintain the server.Lenovo XClarity Administrator offers comprehensive hardware management tools that can helpincrease uptime, reduce costs and improve productivity through advanced server managementcapabilities.An integrated Trusted Platform Module (TPM) supports the enablement of advanced cryptographicfunctionality, such as digital signatures and remote attestation.System x Trusted Platform Assurance, an exclusive set of System x security features and practices,establishes a solid security foundation for workloads by delivering firmware that is securely built,tested, digitally signed, and verified prior to execution.
Energy efficiencyThe System x3250 M6 offers the following energy-efficiency features to save energy, reduce operationalcosts, increase energy availability, and contribute to a green environment:
Energy-efficient planar components help lower operational costs.80 PLUS Gold-certified power supplies enable greater energy savings while providing flexibility tomeet your business needs.The Lenovo Power Planner tool provides information about the power consumption and electriccurrent calculation for the different configurations of servers and other devices, which helps plandeployment of servers and devices in an efficient way.Intel Intelligent Power Capability powers individual processor elements on and off as needed, toreduce power draw.Low-voltage Intel Xeon processors draw less energy to satisfy the demands of power and thermallyconstrained data centers and telecommunication environments.1.2 V DDR4 memory DIMMs offer higher energy savings compared to 1.35 V and 1.5 V DDR3DIMMs.

Integrated Management Module 2.1The System x3250 M6 server contains an Integrated Management Module II (IMM2.1), which providesadvanced service-processor control, monitoring, and an alerting function. If an environmental conditionexceeds a threshold or if a system component fails, the IMM2.1 lights LEDs to help you diagnose theproblem, records the error in the event log, and alerts you to the problem. Optionally, the IMM2.1 alsoprovides a virtual presence capability for remote server management capabilities.The IMM2.1 provides remote server management through industry-standard interfaces:

The optional Integrated Management Module Advanced Upgrade is required to enable the remotepresence and blue-screen capture features. The remote presence feature provides the following functions:
Remotely viewing video with graphics resolutions up to 1600x1200 at 75 Hz with up to 23 bits perpixelRemotely accessing the server using the keyboard and mouse from a remote clientMapping the CD or DVD drive, diskette drive, and USB flash drive on a remote client, and mappingISO and diskette image files as virtual drives that are available for use by the serverUploading a diskette image to the IMM memory and mapping it to the server as a virtual drive
The blue-screen capture feature captures the video display contents before the IMM2.1 restarts the serverwhen the IMM2.1 detects an operating system hang condition. A system administrator can use the blue-screen capture to help determine the cause of the hang condition. The following table lists the remotemanagement option.
