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 available worldwide.
  2. The IBM BladeCenter PN41 DPI blade has 2 external ports
    (1 1Gb and 1 10Gb) and 8 internal ports (4 1Gb and 4 10Gb).
  3. An additional administration host blade server is necessary to
    interface with the DPI blade, because the DPI blade does
    not have a direct user interface. The additional administration
    blade server (an IBM BladeCenter HS21 Intel blade) must
    support VMware ESX Server 3.0 or later and have dual 1
    Gbps controllers.
  4. IBM BladeCenter PN41 DPI blade contains a network
    processor for use in handling packets. This is a dedicated
    processor and is not available for general applications.
  5. The IBM BladeCenter PN41 DPI blade contains no drives
    or flash drives
