GIGABYTE MB51-PS0 (rev. 1.0)

Built With the Intel^® Xeon^® D-2123IT / D-2143IT SoC Processor

Based on the Skylake architecture, the Intel Xeon D Server-on-Chip (SoC) processors are optimized for flexible, scalable, high-density network, storage and cloud edge computing solutions. It brings the architectural innovations of the Intel^® Xeon^® Scalable platform to a SoC processor for lower-power, high-density solutions, integrating essential network, security and acceleration capabilities. GIGABYTE Motherboard design and engineering expertise applied to this Intel Xeon D processors enables it to meet the increasingly diverse requirements of the industry, from the data center to the edge.

DDR4 Memory Support

The Intel Xeon D product family supports the DDR4 memorytechnology. Compared to DDR3, this new generation brings:

Easy BIOS Update

Because updating your BIOS to a newer version can be a troublesome experience, GIGABYTE has developed this integrated function (no additional software to install) that lets you update the BIOS of your server / workstation motherboard(s):

GIGABYTE Server Management (GSM)

GIGABYTE Server Management (GSM) is GIGABYTE’s proprietary multiple server remote management software platform, available as a free download from each GIGABYTE server product page. GSM is compatible with either IPMI or Redfish (RESTful API) connection interfaces, and comprises the following sub-programs:

• GSM Server, a software program with an easy to use browser-based GUI to enable global remote monitoring and management of multiple GIGABYTE servers via each server node’s BMC.
• GSM CLI, a command-line interface program to enable global remote monitoring and management of multiple GIGABYTE servers via each server node’s BMC.
• GSM Agent*, a software program installed locally on each GIGABYTE server node that retrieves additional node information (CPU/Mem/HDD/PCI/…) from the OS and passes it to the BMC. This information can then be utilized by GSM Server or GSM CLI.

*GSM Agent is currently compatible with Avocent MergePoint IPMI 2.0 BMC firmware, but not yet compatible with Megarac SP-X BMC firmware.

• GSM Mobile, a remote server management mobile APP, available for both Android and iOS.
• GSM Plugin, a plugin that allows the user to manage and monitor GIGABYTE server nodes within VMware’s vCenter.

Intuitive & Informative User Interface

Starting from the GSM Server dashboard, the user can clearly understand the status of each node in the IT environment, including:

• Node connection status (system is online/offline)
• Node hardware sensor status (to detect hardware anomalies). Sensors measure voltage, fan speed and temperature
• Node usage rate status (allowing you to timely allocate more resources when they are needed), including:
  • Power consumption
  • Disk/RAID usage information
  • Memory usage rate
  • CPU usage rate
  • Network card / PCI information

The user can also perform various management functions, including:

• Node remote access
  • Power on / off / reset
  • Launch iKVM
  • Reboot BMC / BMC Account Configuration
• Network Configuration
  • IPv4/IPv6 setting
• Alert Management
  • SNMP trap setting
  • Platform events filters
  • Forwarding alerts by email
• BMC / BIOS / CPLD Update
• Power Consumption Limit Setting
• Group Management
  • Create groups of nodes for BMC / BIOS update or manage power consumption settings

GSM Mobile for iOS and Android

A GSM Mobile app is available for download for both iOS and Android mobile phones for remote server management on the go.

Management through VMware vCenter

A GSM Plugin is available for VMware’s vCenter, allowing the user to perform remote monitoring and management of GIGABYTE server nodes without having to switch to a separate software platform.

Dynamic Fan Speed Control

GIGABYTE servers are enabled with dynamic fan speed adjustment. Individual fan speed will be automatically adjusted according to the system’s current temperature (according to CPU, DIMM, M.2, HDD, GPU temperature sensors), to achieve the best cooling and power efficiency. When the BMC detects a temperature change, fan speed will be automatically adjusted accordingly. Fan speed profiles may also be manually created and edited* when necessary according to the user’s custom requirements.

* Enabled on selected models & performed through BMC console management GUI
