Feature Benefits
POWER5+ processor core
  • Designed to provide excellent application performance and high reliability

  • Includes simultaneous multi-threading to help increase commercial system performance and processor utilisation
High memory / input/output (I/O) bandwidth
  • Fast processors wait less for data to be moved through the system

  • Delivers data faster for the needs of memory-intensive applications
2U packaging
  • 19-inch rack-mount model for high-density 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 ten partitions

  • Fine tune processing power to match workloads
VIOS*
  • Helps save cost and ease systems administration by sharing expensive resources
Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN)*
  • 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, IBM Chipkill memory, First Failure Data Capture (FFDC), dynamic deallocation of selected system resources, hot-plug PCI-X slots, hot-swappable disk bays, redundant hot-plug cooling, dynamic firmware updates and more
Multiple OS support
  • Allows clients the flexibility to select the right OS and the right application to meet their needs

  • Provides the ability to expand application choices to include many open source applications
AIX 5L OS*
  • Designed to deliver maximum throughput for mixed workloads without complex system configuration or tuning

  • Delivers integrated security features designed for system protection

  • Extends application choices with Linux affinity
Linux OS*
  • Enables access 32- and 64-bit open source applications

  • Provides a common operating environment across IBM server platforms

  • Built on open standards

  * Indicates this feature is optional, is available on selected models, or requires separate software.
