Introduction

The Lenovo ThinkServer RS160 is the ideal right-sized, value-priced, single-socket 1U rack solution for small and medium businesses that need optimized performance and flexibility for future growth. With support for a memory capacity of up to 64 GB and internal storage of 24 TB, the RS160 is ideal for small- to medium-sized business, workgroups, distributed locations, and webscale workloads.

The RS160 offers a wide range of processors - from Intel Pentium to Intel Xeon E3-1200 v5. Also, it features integrated NICs and an additional PCIe expansion slot for advanced RAID protection or network scalability.

The ThinkServer Management Module (TMM), also known as Baseboard Management Controller (BMC), which is built into the RS160 offers advanced service-processor control, monitoring, and an alerting function.

The following figure shows the Lenovo ThinkServer RS160.

Did you know?

The RS160 offers enterprise-class management with an integrated ThinkServer Management Module.

The RS160 has just a 16.2-inch (411 mm) deep chassis and supports 4-post and 2-post racks, giving you more flexibility with your business footprint.

The RS160 offers energy efficiency and serviceability features, such as 80 PLUS Gold certified power supplies and sliding rails, that are not typically found in the single-socket value servers.

Key features

The ThinkServer RS160 server is a compact, cost-effective, single-processor 1U rack server that has been optimized to provide enterprise-class features to small-to-medium-sized businesses, retail stores, or distributed enterprises.

Scalability and performance

The RS160 offers numerous features to boost performance, improve scalability, and reduce costs:

  • The Intel Xeon processor E3-1200 v5 improves productivity by offering affordable single-socket system performance with 4-core processors with up to 3.7 GHz core speeds and up to 8 MB cache.
  • Choice of processors with up to four cores to enable the effective use of multithreaded applications.
  • Intelligent and adaptive system performance with Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 allows processor cores to run at maximum speeds during peak workloads by temporarily going beyond processor thermal design power (TDP).
  • Intel Hyper-Threading Technology boosts performance for multithreaded applications by enabling simultaneous multithreading within each processor core, up to two threads per core.
  • Intel Virtualization Technology integrates hardware-level virtualization hooks that allow operating system vendors to better use the hardware for virtualization workloads.
  • Intel Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) technology significantly improves floating point performance for compute-intensive technical and scientific applications.
  • Up to four 2133 MHz DDR4 ECC UDIMMs provide speed, availability, and a capacity of up to 64 GB.
  • The server offers PCI Express 3.0 I/O expansion capabilities that increase the theoretical maximum bandwidth by almost 100% (8 GTps per link using 128b/130b encoding) compared to the PCI Express 2.0 (5 GTps per link using 8b/10b encoding).
  • With Intel Integrated I/O Technology, the PCI Express 3.0 controller is integrated into the Intel Xeon processor E3-1200 v5 product family. Such integration reduces I/O latency and increases overall system performance.
  • Two 3.5-inch or four 2.5-inch non-hot-swap (NHS) drive bays provide sufficient internal storage capacity in a compact 1U form factor.
  • The use of solid-state drives (SSDs) instead of, or along with, traditional spinning drives (hard disk drives or HDDs) can significantly improve I/O performance.

Availability and serviceability

The RS160 provides many features to simplify serviceability and increase system uptime:

  • The RS160 supports UDIMM memory with ECC protection which provides error correction not available 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 memory and adapter cards.
  • A choice of affordable onboard SATA RAID or advanced hardware RAID redundancy offers data protection and greater system uptime.
  • The use of SSDs can provide better reliability than the use of traditional HDDs, for greater uptime.
  • Built-in ThinkServer Management Module (TMM) continuously monitors system parameters, triggers alerts, and performs recovery actions in case of failure, to minimize downtime.
  • One-year or three-year customer-replaceable unit (CRU) and onsite limited warranty with next business day response. Optional service upgrades are available.

Manageability and security

Powerful systems management features simplify local and remote management of the RS160:

  • The server includes ThinkServer Management Module to monitor server availability and perform remote management.
  • An integrated industry-standard Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) enables improved setup, configuration, and updates, and simplifies error handling.
  • The ThinkServer EasyStartup tool simplifies the process of configuring RAID and installing supported Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems, VMware hypervisors, and device drivers on a ThinkServer system.
  • An optional Trusted Platform Module (TPM) enables advanced cryptographic functionality, such as digital signatures and remote attestation.
  • Industry-standard Advanced Encryption Standard New Instructions (AES-NI) support improves the speed and strength of encryption.
  • Intel Execute Disable Bit functionality can help prevent certain classes of malicious buffer overflow attacks when combined with a supporting operating system.
  • Intel Trusted Execution Technology provides enhanced security through hardware-based resistance to malicious software attacks. This enables an application to run in its own isolated space, protected from all other software running on a system.

Energy efficiency

The RS160 offers the following energy-efficiency features to save energy, reduce operational costs, increase energy availability, and contribute to a green environment:

  • 80 PLUS Gold-certified power supply enables greater energy savings while providing flexibility to meet your business needs.
  • The ThinkServer Power Planner tool provides information about the power consumption and electric current calculation for the different configurations of servers and other devices, which helps plan deployment of servers and devices in an efficient way.
  • Intel Intelligent Power Technology powers individual processor elements on and off as needed, to reduce power draw.
  • The use of SSDs can help lower power consumption compared to traditional spinning 2.5-inch HDDs.

For the latest information about the specific versions and service levels that are supported and any other prerequisites, see the Operating System Interoperability Guide: http://lenovopress.com/redposig.

Systems management

The RS160 server contains ThinkServer Management Module (TMM), which provides advanced service-processor control, monitoring, and an alerting function. If an environmental condition exceeds a threshold or if a system component fails, the TMM lights LEDs to help you diagnose the problem, records the error in the event log, and alerts you to the problem. As a standard feature, the TMM also provides virtual presence for remote server management capabilities.

The TMM virtual presence feature provides the following functions:

  • Remotely viewing video with graphics resolutions up to 1920x1200 at 60 Hz with up to 24 bits per pixel colors
  • Remotely accessing the system by using the keyboard and mouse from a remote client
  • Mapping the CD or DVD drive, diskette drive, and USB flash drive on a remote client, and mapping ISO and diskette image files as virtual drives that are available for use by the system

The TMM can be accessed through a dedicated 10/100/1000 Mb Ethernet management port, and it provides remote server management through the following industry-standard interfaces:

  • Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) Version 2.0
  • Embedded Web UI via HTTP/HTTPS
  • Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) alerts

Lenovo offers the following software tools that can help you set up, use, and maintain the server at no additional cost:

  • ThinkServer EasyStartup

    The ThinkServer EasyStartup tool simplifies the process of configuring RAID and installing supported Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems, VMware hypervisors, and device drivers on a ThinkServer system.
