Attention
Attention:
A four-digit feature code is used to specify a component that is configurable in the IBM configurators, the eBusiness Configurator (eConfig) and the IBM Web-based Hardware Configurator, used in US and Canada. Options that do not have feature codes cannot be integrated by IBM into a system using these IBM configurators. To purchase options separately, refer to the option part number provided in this document.

Notes:
  1. Model numbers provided are worldwide generally
    available variant (GAV) model numbers which are not
    orderable as listed and need 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 7870-A2Y is 7870-A2U. See the product-specific
    Official IBM announcement letter for other country-specific
    GAV model numbers. GAV to MTM mapping for AP
    Geographies follow the same pattern. Substitute the last
    character with a country-specific designator.
  2. When configuring 80-watt HS22 blades in a BC-E
    chassis with (4) 2000-watt power supplies, a maximum
    configuration of (12) 80W HS22 blades can be installed
    using (5) 80W HS22s in Domain 1 and (7) 80W HS22s
    in Domain 2. A maximum configuration of (13) blades
    can be installed when mixing 80W HS22s with non-HS22s
    using (6) non-HS22s in Domain 1 and (7) 80W HS22s
    in Domain 2.
  3. When configuring 95-watt HS22 blades in a BC-E
    chassis with (4) 2000-watt power supplies, a maximum
    configuration of (11) 95W HS22 blades can be installed
    using (5) 95W HS22s in Domain 1 and (6) 95W HS22s
    in Domain 2. A maximum configuration of (12) blades
    can be installed when mixing 95W HS22s with non-HS22’s
    using (6) non-HS22s in Domain 1 and (6) 95W HS22s
    in Domain 2. A maximum configuration of (13) blades
    can be installed when changing the domains used for
    mixing 95W HS22s with (5) 95W HS22s in Domain 1
    and (8) non-HS22s in Domain 2.
  4. When configuring 60-watt HS22 blades in a BC-E
    chassis with (4) 2000-watt power supplies, a maximum
    configuration of (13) 60W HS22 blades can be installed
    using (6) 60W HS22s in Domain 1 and (7) 60W HS22s
    in Domain 2. A maximum configuration of (14) blades can
    be installed when mixing 60W HS22s using (6) 60W
    HS22s in Domain 1 and (8) non-HS22s in Domain 2.
  5. The 8677 chassis ships standard with a minimum of (2)
    power supplies installed in the chassis. This provides
    the necessary power requirements to support HS-22
    in blade slots 1-6 ( Domain 1). To support blades in
    slots 7-14 (Domain 2) an additional set of power
    supplies are required.
