Notes:

  1. Model number is a worldwide general available variant (GAV) model number which is not orderable as listed and needs to be modified by country. The U.S. GAV model numbers use the following nomenclature: xxU. For example, the U.S. orderable part number for 8852-3XY is 8852-3XU. See the product specific Official IBM announcement letter for other country-specific GAV model numbers.
  2. Withdrawal dates are provided for U.S. and Canada only.
    Business Partner Inventory may be available
  3. Housed in a 19in rack-mountable chassis
  4. The management modules for BladeCenter include KVM components.
  5. Only the read function is supported on the Combo2 drive.
  6. Does not ship with a diskette drive.An external FDD is supported
    attached to one of the two front mounted USB ports.
  7. Supports up to 14 singlewide blade servers. Additional power
    supplies are required to maintain full redundancy beyond seven blade
    servers
  8. BladeCenter chassis can provide increased density per rack
    over standalone 1U servers by housing multiple blades in less
    rack space. BladeCenter solutions increase usability and reduce
    complexity by providing common sourcing for blade servers, cabling,
    cabling connections, I/O options, power modules, system management
    requirements (optional adapters and external cabling), external Fibre
    Channel storage switching and connectivity, and network management and expansion.
