Abstract
The present invention is directed to a technique whereby multiple servers may be contained within single server chassis or housing. This space saving technique is used to increase the server-to-space ratio for purposes of data warehousing facility cost minimization, and to reduce a maximum amount of space required by a large number of servers. Multiple improvements have been made to each of the servers contained within a single server housing to allow for proper functionality of each of the servers contained within a housing. Additionally, the multiple servers of the present invention have many improvements that allow for remote monitoring, maintenance, and reconfiguration by a remote user or system administrator.
