 |
-
19-inch rack-mount (4U drawer) form-factor with one or two drawers to offer flexibility in configuration
|
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
Shared processor pool*
|
 |
-
Provides the ability to transparently share processing power between partitions

-
Helps balance processing power and helps make sure the high priority partitions get the processor cycles they need
|
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
Micro-Partitioning*
|
 |
-
Allows each processor in the shared processor pool to be split into as many as 10 partitions

-
Fine tune processing power to match workloads
|
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
Virtual I/O Server*
|
 |
-
Helps save cost and ease systems administration by sharing expensive resources, reducing the number of physical adaptors required to service multiple LPARs
|
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
Virtual LAN*
|
 |
-
Helps speed internal communication between partitions at memory speeds
|
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
Dynamic logical partitioning*
|
 |
-
Allows reallocation of system resources without rebooting affected partitions

-
Offers greater flexibility in using available capacity and more rapidly matching resources to changing business requirements
|
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
Mainframe-inspired RAS features
|
 |
-
Delivers exceptional system availability using features usually found on much larger, more expensive systems including service processor, Chipkill™ memory, First Failure Data Capture, dynamic deallocation of selected system resources, hot-plug PCI-X slots, hot-swappable disk bays, redundant hot-plug cooling, dynamic firmware updates and more
|
