Model Abstract 7039-651

(No Longer Available as of October 7, 2005)

The IBM eServer pSeries 655 (7039-651) is the latest in a family of products within IBM's UNIX, 64-bit, symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) servers. The pSeries 655 offers a super-dense package (up to 128 processors in a single frame), ideal for many high-performance computing and business intelligence applications.

Based on IBM's leadership POWER4 Technology, the p655 is designed for medium to large customers whose workloads are best managed with a clustered server solution.

Packaged in scalable, single multi-chip module (MCM)-based thin nodes, within a half-drawer, 4U form factor, up to sixteen p655s can be installed within a frame, capable of delivering over 1/2 peak TFlop of clustered performance within that single frame.

With PSSP, over 10 years of cluster management technology is delivered to the p655. You benefit from leadership administration at lower costs.

The p655 server can be interconnected to the SP Switch2 fabric using the SP Switch2 PCI-X adapter as a stand-alone cluster, or as an additional building block of the IBM eServer Cluster 1600.

The p655 can be partitioned into four Logical Partitions (LPARs), either switched or non-switched for greater flexibility.

Within the 7040-W42 frame for the p655, the 7040-61D I/O drawer offers expansion of up to 20 blind-swap PCI bus slots and up to 16 additional Ultra3 SCSI disks per server that can be hot-plugged.

The IBM eServer Cluster 1600 is enhanced to include the p655 server within the available cluster building blocks. This new server is now available as both an initial option and a field addition to the IBM eServer Cluster 1600.

SMP, LPAR, Clusters

The pSeries 655 is a densely packaged, cluster-optimized server, available as a stand-alone SMP server, or fully managed as a cluster through PSSP software. The combination of LPAR, common CEC hardware, platform-optimized I/O drawers, a common hardware management console, common switch fabric, and attachment adapters enable customers with new levels of flexibility and scalability not previously available from IBM.

IBM anticipates that one or more Linux distributors will support 64-bit Linux in the first half of 2003. For more information about Linux running on IBM eServer pSeries systems, consult:

http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/pseries/linux.

Linux for pSeries is available directly from the Linux distributors.

pSeries

The pSeries is the powerful, technologically advanced family of UNIX servers. pSeries systems meet a diverse set of needs scaling from small departmental and distributed systems to massively parallel supercomputers. Each pSeries system features IBM's UNIX operating system AIX 5L, the most open UNIX with Linux affinity.

The ultra-powerful pSeries 655 sets the standard for supercomputing class UNIX servers with its mainframe-heritage LPAR and selfmanaging features.

The p655 is the latest system to offer the POWER4+ microprocessor. The POWER4+ chip is a dual processor SMP on a single piece of silicon. It owes its advanced performance to IBM's SOI and copper fabrication technology.

The system features include:

  • Full 64-bit implementation
  • AIX 5L V5.1, AIX 5L V5.2, and HACMP support
  • POWER4+ processors operating at 1.5 GHz (8-way) or 1.7 GHz (4-way)
  • POWER4 processors operating at 1.1 GHz (8-way) or 1.3 GHz (4-way)
  • Up to 32 GB memory
  • Two hot-plug disk bay, for a pair of 18.2 GB, 36.4 GB, 73.4 GB, or 146.8 GB disks
  • Three hot-plug capable PCI-X slots
  • Two integrated 10/100 Ethernet ports
  • Two integrated serial ports for HMC connection
  • Two remote I/O ports to connect the 7040-61D I/O drawer
  • L2 and L3 ECC caches
  • Up to four LPARs, switched or non-switched
  • Service processor for RAS
  • First failure data capture
  • Self-diagnosing and healing features
  • IBM Hardware Management Console for pSeries (HMC)

The pSeries 655 can be configured with a 7040-61D I/O Drawer. The I/O drawer can contain up to 16 hot-swap capable disks structured into four 4-packs of 18.2 GB, 36.4 GB, 73.4 GB, or 146.8 GB disks.

The drawer contains two planars with 10 slots/planar, 20 slots/drawer. The slots are hot-plug capable to permit PCI adapters to be added or replaced without extending the I/O drawer, all while the system remains available to the customer. PCI-X planars in the 7040-61D I/O Drawer, with RIO-2 connectivity, are supported on the POWER4+ version of the 7039-651.

For unmatched UNIX system performance and scalability, up to 32 p655 Central Electronic Complexes (CECs) can be connected within a cluster environment. To help customers consolidate workloads, the CECs can be split into as many as two LPARs.

Complementing the power of the pSeries 655 are the extraordinary self- managing capabilities. The system can detect faulty memory, processors, cache and PCI buses, and dynamically take them offline. It even makes the service call. All of this without requiring administrative action or interrupting operations. Growth is easy with hot-plug PCI. For the ultimate in availability, the systems can be clustered together with high-availability cluster multiprocessing software.

Dynamic Logical Partitioning

  • Dynamic logical partitioning (dynamic LPAR) allows system resources to be easily and quickly configured across multiple logical partitions (LPARs).

  • Dynamic LPAR can be used to add newly activated Capacity Upgrade on Demand processors into the p690 configuration without requiring a system re-boot.

  • The following are required for dynamic LPAR:

    • AIX 5L for POWER Version 5.2 or later

    • Hardware Management Console for pSeries with Version 1.0 Release 3 or later software

Self-Managing Systems

IBM designs IBM eServer systems to be self-managing so you can concentrate on your business and technical computing needs.

The IBM autonomic computing initiative is IBM's blueprint for self- managing systems. The goal is to use technology to manage technology and create an intelligent, self-managing IT infrastructure that minimizes complexity. You can manage environments hundreds of times more complex and more broadly distributed than exist today.

IBM autonomic computing initiative systems will allow you to grow your computing resources without increasing critical staff and costs to manage larger more complex computer networks.

This all-encompassing strategy addresses the self-management needs in four areas:

  • Self-configuring -- systems can be reconfigured or expanded without interrupting operations

  • Self-healing -- systems can detect impending problems and correct them automatically to keep systems going and lower administrative expense

  • Self-optimizing -- systems can balance resources and workloads dynamically to maximize responsiveness and throughput

  • Self-protecting -- systems can help protect transactions and enterprise data

I/O Drawer

Previously introduced on the p690 server, the p655 utilized the common hardware of the 7040-61D I/O drawer to provide PCI adapter slots and internal disk capabilities. The Model 61D is a 4U drawer that mounts in the 24-inch 7040-W42 System Rack and connects to the system CEC via remote I/O cables.

Each Model 61D I/O drawer provides up to twenty blind swap PCI slots and sixteen hot-swap disk bays. The Model 61D utilizes redundant power converters and power cabling to help ensure high reliability and availability. It utilizes 350 V bulk power supplied from the 7040-W42 system rack.

PCI-X planars in the 7040-61D I/O Drawer, with RIO-2 connectivity, are supported on the POWER4+ version of the 7039-651.

System Rack

The 7040-W42 System Rack provides space for mounting system drawer components for pSeries 655 servers the 7040-61D I/O drawers. The Model W42 is a 24-inch rack that provides 42U of rack space.

The 7040-W42 utilizes a 350 V DC bulk power subsystem to provide power for the components within the rack. The bulk power subsystem incorporates redundant bulk power assemblies mounted in the front and rear sections of the top 8U of the rack.

RAS Features and Functions

Excellent quality and reliability features are the keys to all facets of IBM eServer pSeries products. The measures taken help ensure the products operate when required, perform reliably, efficiently handle infrequent failures in a nondisruptive fashion, and provide timely and competent repair to allow resumption of operations with minimal inconvenience.

Reliability begins with the development of architectures, where RAS innovations are of paramount importance. The reliability concept flows through design and product development stages, where RAS designs are reviewed, assessed, developed, evaluated, and optimized. It continues through the manufacturing and release processes, where the manufacturing quality is extensively measured and is under continual evaluation. It culminates in service and support, where:

  • Reliability is consistently monitored for deviation from the criteria.
  • Warranty and maintenance have high priority.
  • Significant customer problems are assigned to and addressed by an expert team.

IBM eServer pSeries 655 system processes, from the architectural and concept phases of development through the provision of service and support, are ISO certified and audited periodically for ISO compliance by representatives of Underwriters Laboratories.

Product Positioning

The pSeries 655 is designed to offer leadership performance for a dense cluster optimized server package, targeted for High Performance Computing (HPC) and Business Intelligence (BI) customers within the UNIX server environment. Designed for the medium to large customer whose workloads are best managed with a clustered-server solution, the p655 provides flexibility and scalability. Additional upside opportunity includes current SP customers outside HPC/BI looking to upgrade, expand, or integrate more compute power for workload consolidation or enterprise applications.

Based on IBM's advanced POWER4 microprocessor technology with up to 1.3 GHz, 64-bit processor speed, copper and SOI technology, the p655 offers high performance in a dense package with favorable price/performance characteristics, allowing up to 128 processors in a single frame.

pSeries 655 systems configured with 4-way, high-memory-bandwidth processor MCMs (#5513 or #5518)) may be especially attractive to customers in the high-performance computing environment. This configuration provide twice the amount of Level 2 and Level 3 cache, and additional memory bandwidth per processor when compared to systems configured with 8-way processor MCMs.

This additional cache and memory bandwidth available for each processor in this configuration may provide significantly higher performance per processor for certain engineering and technical environment applications.

Central Electronics Complex -- (7039-651)

The pSeries 655 provides outstanding 64-bit compute performance for the UNIX environment. It features SOI (silicon on insulator) copper chip technology, mainframe inspired logical partitioning (LPAR) and self- managing capabilities. Its features include:

  • Excellent performance in 4-, or 8-way servers utilizing a single multi-chip module (MCM) containing four or eight POWER4+ or POWER4 processors. Each MCM also contains 5.6 MB of L2 cache shared across the processors.

  • High-performance ECC L3 cache of 128 MB per processor MCM.

  • Excellent reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS) features providing:
    • Dynamic Processor Deallocation
    • Error checking and correcting (ECC) system memory and cache
    • I/O link failure recovery
    • PCI-X/PCI cards that can be hot-swapped
    • Hot-plug disk
    • Environmental sensing
    • Redundant power and cooling
    • Service processor for integrated system monitoring
    • Concurrent diagnostics
    • Dynamic LPAR

  • Logical partitioning (LPAR) of the system hardware into four partitions, switched or non-switched. Each logical partition operates under the control of it's own copy of the operating system. PCI-X/PCI cards may be assigned to an LPAR on a slot by slot basis if required. The integrated ethernet ports can be individually assigned to an LPAR. Internal disk can be assigned to only one LPAR. To achieve the minimum resources per LPAR, additional I/O expansion for disk is required. Information on resources required to enable LPAR can be found in the publication IBM Hardware Management Console for pSeries Installation and Operations Guide, SA38-0590. Four dynamic LPARs are supported with AIX 5L v5.2. Two static LPARs are supported with AIX 5L v5.1.

  • There are no feature upgrade paths between processor speeds or memory card sizes. Selection of the appropriate CEC processor features, and memory cards based upon future growth requirements within the 7039-651 is important. For system expansion, additional 7039-651 CEC's and 7040-61D I/O drawers are ordered.

    • The 7040-W42 rack configuration can scale from an single 7039-651 1.3 GHz 4-way up to a maximum of sixteen 7039-651 1.5 GHz 8-way (128-way processors) within the rack. Up to 32 7039-651's are supported in the clustered server environment.

    • Memory can be expanded up to 32 GB.

    • Internal I/O system scalability and expandability that supports the 7040-61D I/O drawer to provide:
      • Industry-standard PCI subsystem supporting 32-bit and 64-bit adapters
      • 20 blind swap PCI slots per drawer
      • 16 hot-plug capable Ultra3 SCSI bays per drawer
      • PCI-X with RIO-2 connectivity, on PCI-X based planars available on the POWER4+ versions of the p655. Additional SP Switch2 connectivity with the SP Switch2 PCI-X Attachment Adapter (#8389) in the I/O Drawer.

  • The 7039-651 can operate as a stand-alone server as well as in a cluster environment.

  • The 7039-651 is supported on the SP Switch2 fabric in both single plane and two plane environments. The SP Switch2 PCI-X Attachment Adapter (#8398) is utilized in the 7030-651 CEC to support the SMP in a single plane application, the SMP in the two plane application, and the two LPAR in the single plane application. The 7039-651 in LPAR mode can also have one LPAR on the SP Switch2 fabric, and one LPAR not on the SP Switch2 fabric. (#8389) is utilized in the I/O drawer to support two plane applications of two switched LPARs.

  • The SP Switch2 PCI Attachment Adapter (#8397) and the IBM RS/6000 SP System Attachment Adapter (#8396) are not supported in the I/O drawer 7040-61D when attached to the 7039-651 CEC.

  • A redundant system power which provides a modular design that allows adding power regulators as required based on the system configuration.

  • Industry recognized AIX 5L operating system license is included with each system.

  • Open industry standards, such as Open Firmware based on IEEE P1275 standard.

I/O Drawer -- (7040-61D)

The 7040-61D I/O drawer provides PCI adapter slots and internal disk capabilities for use with pSeries servers such as the pSeries 655 and the p690/p670. The Model 61D is a 4U drawer which mounts in the 24-inch 7040-61R System Rack and connects to the system Central Electronics Complex via remote I/O cables.

Each Model 61D I/O drawer provides twenty blind swap PCI slots and sixteen hot-swap disk bays. The Model 61D utilizes redundant power converters and power cabling to help ensure high reliability and availability. It utilizes 350 V bulk power supplied from the 7040-W42 system rack.

System Rack -- (7040-W42)

The 7040-W42 System Rack provides space for mounting system drawer components for pSeries servers such as the pSeries 655 Central Electronics Complex (7039-651) and the 7040-61D I/O drawers. The Model W42 is a 24-inch rack which provides 42U of rack space.

The 7040-W42 incorporates a 350 V DC bulk power subsystem to provide power for the components within the rack. The bulk power subsystem incorporates redundant bulk power assemblies mounted in the front and rear sections of the top 8U of the rack.

Reliability -- Fault Avoidance

Major effort has been spent on the development of the p655 system to analyze single points-of-failure within the CEC (comprised of the processors, memory, and the I/O interface) and to either eliminate them or to provide hardening capabilities to significantly reduce the probability of failure. The best way to harden a system is to prevent error from occurring. Components within the CEC were selected to provide server levels of reliability. These components undergo the highest level of reliability testing within IBM. During the design and development process, subsystems go through rigorous verification and integration testing processes. During system manufacturing, systems again go through a thorough testing process to ensure highest product quality level.

Extensive error detecting and checking circuitry is included to help ensure that infrequent component failures are recognized and corrected automatically, and properly reported for isolation and repair. This helps preserve the integrity of data stored and transported in the system. To support a diagnostic technique called run time first failure data capture, errors detected by the CEC error checking circuitry are captured automatically and analyzed by the service processor at the time of error. The system is designed to identify and log the appropriate replacement part or parts without the need to reproduce the error condition. The purpose of this function is to significantly reduce the repeat failure and repair scenarios associated with error recreate strategies by providing the correct isolation at the time of the failure. Reduced outages and quicker repair time can result in higher system reliability and better overall availability.

Hardware and software failures are recorded in the AIX log facility and analyzed by error log analysis (ELA) routines to provide warning to the system administrator on the causes of system problems. On p655 systems, all service action requests are forwarded from the operating system are partitions to a Service Focal Point (SFP) application running on the Hardware Management Console (HMC). The service focal point application analyzes the potentially duplicate reported failures from the various logical partitions, attempts to determine the root cause of the fault, and upon identifying the cause, initiates call-home requests to IBM support utilizing the HMC modem and the Service Agent application program. This enables IBM service representatives to have available needed replacement hardware components when a service call is placed, thus minimizing system repair time.

Availability -- Backup and Replication

Power and Cooling Subsystem

The pSeries 655 is designed to provide full fault tolerance with redundancy and concurrent repair for power and cooling at the CEC rack level for configurations of up to ten 7039-651 CECs and two 7040-61D I/O. Above the configuration of ten 7039-651 CECs and two 7040-61D I/O, N+1 redundancy and deferred maintenance is provided for the bulk power regulators.

The p655 also features redundant Internal Battery Features (IBF) to hold the system up during brown-out conditions. For full power loss protection, the p655 supports optional uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems in addition to, or in place of, the IBF features.

In the I/O drawers, N+1 power and cooling is provided with the capability for concurrent repair of the power components and deferred repair of the cooling units.

Constant power monitoring hardware assists in detection of early loss of source power, and is designed to notify the operating system to effect an orderly shutdown. This same power monitoring hardware can detect the loss of redundant bulk power supplies, regulators, fans, and blowers and report them to the operating system for entry in the system error log and for maintenance notification.

CEC Subsystem

RAS features such as ECC on the L1 data cache and L2 data and directory caches can provide dynamic detection and correction of hard or soft array cell failures. Dynamic de-allocation functions include:

  • L3 cache line detect and L2 cache de-allocation
  • Individual L3 cache memory bypass
  • Mainstore memory card de-allocation
  • L2 cache and CPU de-allocation
  • Redundant bit steering in L1 and L2 caches and L2 and L3 directory arrays

Building on the robust features of the processor complex, the p655 system has enhanced error detection and prevention capabilities. These processor RAS features are called Dynamic Processor De-allocation and Persistent Processor De-allocation. Predictive failure analysis is performed on recoverable processor errors during run time. If a processor exceeds a threshold of recoverable errors such as on L2 cache accesses, the system is designed to log the event marked and deconfigure the processor from the system while the operating system continues to run. This feature allows the processor to be repaired on a deferred basis while helping prevent an unscheduled system outage.

Persistent Processor De-allocation is designed to ensure that on subsequent reboots, the processor remains out of the system configuration until replaced. The standard memory card has single-error correct and double-error detect ECC circuitry to correct single-bit memory failures. The double-bit detection helps maintain data integrity by detecting and reporting multiple errors beyond what the ECC circuitry can correct. The memory chips are organized such that the failure of any specific memory module should only affect a single bit within an ECC word (bit scattering), thus allowing for error correction and continued operation in the presence of a complete chip failure (Chipkill recovery).

This memory card also utilizes memory scrubbing and thresholding to determine when spare memory modules within each bank of memory should be used to replace ones that have exceeded their threshold value (dynamic bit steering). Memory scrubbing is the process of reading the contents of memory during idle time and checking and correcting any single-bit errors that have accumulated. These single-bit failures could be either solid (technology failures) or soft failures (intermittent errors caused by noise or other cosmic effects). If an error is detected, the system is designed to correct it by passing the data through the ECC logic that corrects the fault and then writing the corrected contents back to its memory address location.

In order to prevent an uncorrectable memory error from causing a system outage, the service processor is designed to initiate a deferred maintenance request on memory cards that have used their spare bits and are experiencing additional correctable errors (memory predictive failure analysis).

DASD predictive failure analysis is designed to detect an imminent disk failure and report the findings through the AIX log. Then the disk can be replaced either immediately or scheduled at a later time, depending on the configuration of the DASD subsystem. With the hot-plug disk design, normal operation can continue in the presence of a failed disk and a concurrent repair can be performed while the application continues uninterrupted.

Availability - UE Error Handling

Rare events in the processor, cache, and memory subsystems sometimes cause errors that exceed the error correction capability, and become Uncorrectable Errors (UEs). In other systems, these result in immediate checkstop with the offending component fully identified by the run-time diagnostics. The p655 system is designed not to cause a checkstop of the system. Instead, the corrupted data is specially marked until used by a processor, at which time a new synchronous machine check interrupt allows AIX to localize the effect to a single LPAR or a software process. This provides the capability of localizing a global system resource to affecting only the partition utilizing the resource instead of checkstopping all system partitions. The affected partition can then be rebooted with significantly reduced boot time as compared to a full system reboot.

I/O Subsystem

The interface from the processor to the I/O is through the Remote I/O (RIO) link. This link uses a loop interconnect technology to provide redundant paths to I/O drawers. There is a maximum of 1 I/O drawer on each loop path per CEC. RIO availability features include CRC checking on the RIO bus with packet retry on bus timeouts. In addition, if a RIO link fails, the hardware is designed to automatically initiate a RIO bus reassignment to route the data through the alternate path to its intended destination.

Availability - PCI BUS Error Recovery

In the p655 system, the PCI-X slots in the CEC and the PCI slots in the I/O expansion drawer have specialized hardware and system firmware to support PCI Bus Parity Error Recovery. The specialized hardware function is designed to interact with the software device driver to help prevent PCI slot bus errors from causing a system machine check interrupt and subsequent reboot. Instead, errors are reported locally to the specific device driver controlling activity to the PCI device. Special firmware commands allow the device driver to reset the slot and retry the command, and perform other recovery operations without affecting the total system operation.

The purpose of this design point is also to provide better fault isolation for PCI adapters because each PCI adapter is in essence on its own PCI bus. If it has an interface error, it only affects this single adapter instead of all other adapters residing on the common PCI bus. Thus repair time is significantly reduced because isolation is to the specific adapter and PCI hot plug allows concurrent repair of that card without affecting other adapters.

The pSeries 655 uses AIX online (concurrent) diagnostics with error log analysis and service aids, which can allow administrators or IBM service representatives to diagnose potential system malfunction without interrupting end-user operation.

Auto-restart options, when enabled, are designed to reboot the system automatically following:

  • Unrecoverable software error
  • Software hang
  • Hardware failure
  • Environmentally-induced (ac power) failure

These standard, high-availability features, coupled with the optional High Availability Cluster Multi-Processing (HACMP) program, are designed to provide unmatched availability among UNIX systems.

Serviceability -- Correcting Faults

The pSeries 655 product is designed to be installed and maintained by a trained service representative.

Much of the repair of the p655 system can be done in either a concurrent repair or a deferred repair scenario. Areas of the system that support the concurrent repair scenario are PCI-X/PCI adapters, the power subsystem on the I/O drawers as well as the integrated disk units. Deferred repair scenarios are supported for the I/O drawer cooling units, Remote I/O (RIO) connections, power connections, and predictive failure analyzed portions of the CEC including the processors and memory subsystems when components have been varied off either dynamically or at boot time.

Microcode Discovery Service

Microcode Discovery Service is a new service that allows you to determine if your pSeries 655 is at the latest microcode level. Using a secure Internet connection and a Web browser, Microcode Discovery Service can capture the machine data and generate a real-time comparison report showing subsystems that may need to be updated.

To accomplish this, you must install the new service tool onto your system. This tool, Inventory Scout, will run as a daemon on the server. The tool will create a file containing the current level of all microcode (adapters, devices, system, and support processor) levels in the system. This file will be used to compare the system level codes against the latest available levels on the IBM Web site. You will then receive a report notifying you of any new updates available along with a link from which the microcode can be downloaded.

This service will allow you to maintain the pSeries 655 microcode at the latest levels to obtain peak performance. This service will be available to customers through the Worldwide Support Centers.

  • Service Focal Point

    To accommodate error reporting, analysis, and repair in the LPAR environment, a new application was developed to run on the HMC. This application is called the Service Focal Point (SFP) and leverages the design capabilities of the HMC to provide equivalent virtual function to the current capabilities presented by physical op panels, service processor TTY menu interfaces, and system firmware interfaces as well as capability for configuring/reconfiguring building block hardware into partitions. The SFP is a system infrastructure that manages serviceable event information for the system building blocks. It consists of resource managers that monitor and record information about different objects in the system. It filters and correlates events from the resource managers and initiates calls home when appropriate. It also provides a user interface that allows a user to view the events and perform problem determination. When a problem is corrected, the user can record actions that have been taken to resolve the hardware problem. These features of SFP support the overall problem management strategy in a complex system. The SFP application receives service action events from the Service Processor for critical system down situations, and from the Service Agent application programs running on the individual logical partitions for system recoverable or predictive events as well as operating system or device driver detected events.

  • Service Action Event Log

    The SFP collects the serviceable events from different building blocks together in a Service Action Event (SAE) log. The log entries are generated by analysis routines that run on an error that has occurred in a building block. The resource manager for the building block forwards information about the event to the service focal point and the information is placed in the SAE log. The particular content of the error data depends upon the type of the error and on the system configuration itself.

    The SAE log on the SFP also contains pointers to extended information that may have been recorded at the time of a serviceable event by the building block. Extended error collection includes not only the collection of first failure data capture, but also vital product data, partition information, operating system error logs, service processor error logs, and error register data.

    When the SFP receives a new log entry, filtering is performed to determine if this was a unique event. The filtering is done because sometimes an event notification can come from more than one resource manager for the same event or a resource manager may forward a notification for an event that previously occurred but has not been corrected yet.

  • Service Agent Component

    When a SAE is logged in the SFP, the system needs to communicate the failure back to IBM. During this call-home function, particular error data and system configuration information needs to be sent to IBM to drive the service delivery infrastructure. The SFP utilizes the Service Agent focal point application residing on the HMC along with the HMC modem to initiate the call home and transfer the pertinent error information to IBM Service. When a call home is required, Service Agent manages the connection to IBM that is used to open a problem record. The problem record is used by the service delivery team to determine whether or not to dispatch a customer engineer (CE) with the appropriate service parts to the system to perform a repair.

    When service personnel perform a repair on the system, the SFP is used to identify the source of the problem and record information relating to the repair. When the repair has been completed, the service representative can update the SAE log with FRU replacement information and any comments. The information stored by the SFP represents the system's service history and can be used to ensure proper maintenance over the life of the system.

  • Guiding Light Maintenance

    To assist the service representative in locating the correct system unit and drawer that contain the fault requiring repair, the SFP can enable the capability to flash LEDs on the respective system unit and drawer that contain the fault.

Service Support

Hardware service requests go to IBM's remote support center for initial problem diagnosis. This approach gives you direct access to skilled specialists. These specialists can either solve the problem over the phone or help get it resolved as quickly as possible. They are backed up by a highly-trained product engineering team to assist in problem identification and resolution.

Limitations

pSeries 655 Central Electronics Complex (CEC) (7039-651)

  • The pSeries 655 CEC (7039-651) is a 4U tall, 24-inch half drawer, rack-mounted device. It houses the system processors, memory, system support processor, I/O drawer connection capability, and associated components. The first CEC is installed with the bottom of the drawer at placement indicator (#4609), the 9U position of the 7040-W42 rack. The 7039-651 requires the (#6591) Dual CEC side-by-side Mounting Enclosure, ordered on the CECs positioned in the left side of the rack.

  • The p655 is powered by a single multi-chip processor module. The Multi-Chip Module (MCM) contains either four or eight processors. The p655 is available in the following configurations:
    • 4-way 1.3 GHz, POWER4, high-memory-bandwidth processors (4 processors per MCM)
    • 8-way 1.1 GHz, dual processor POWER4 processors (8 processors per MCM)
    • 4-way 1.7 GHz, POWER4+, high-memory-bandwidth processors (4 processors per MCM)
    • 8-way 1.5 GHz, dual processor POWER4+ processors (8 processors per MCM)

  • Each processor contains 32 KB of data cache and 64 KB of instruction cache.

  • Each processor MCM contains 5.6 MB of Level 2 cache shared between the processors. This provides 1.44 MB of L2 cache per processor for four processor MCMs and 0.72 MB of L2 cache per processor for eight processor MCMs.

  • Each installed processor MCM is supported with 128 MB of Level 3 cache. This provides 32 MB of L3 cache per processor for four processor MCMs and 16 MB of L3 cache per processor for eight processor MCMs. The L3 cache operates at 400 MHz for 1.1 GHz processors and 433 MHz for 1.3 GHz processors.

    Note: pSeries 655 systems configured with 4-way, HPC option processor MCMs (#5513 or #5518) may be especially attractive to customers in the high-performance computing environment.

  • The HMC is a dedicated function device. It is utilized only for the control and service functions of the pSeries servers it serves. It is not available for use as a general purpose computing resource.

  • Each HMC must be configured with a graphics display and a keyboard. A mouse is included with each HMC and is not required to be ordered separately.

  • An Ethernet connection between the HMC and each active partition on the pSeries server is recommended. This connection provides:

    • Additional systems management such as WebSM management of AIX in the individual partitions

    • Collection and passing of hardware service events to the HMC for automatic notification of error conditions to IBM

    • Total system inventory collection

  • Various native language keyboards are available for the hardware system console. However, the HMC displays menus and control information in English regardless of the keyboard utilized.

System Control

  • Each p655 CEC must be connected to an HMC for system control, LPAR, and service functions. The HMC is capable of supporting multiple p655 and p690/p670 systems if desired.

  • The p655 CEC provides two special RS-232 async ports dedicated for HMC attachment. The connectors on these ports are differentiated from standard async ports by providing a 9-pin female connector versus the standard 9-pin male connector. The connection between the HMC and the p655 CEC is through cables available in 6-meter (#8120) and 15-meter (#8121) lengths.

  • The p655 rack (7040-W42) provides two special RS-422 async ports per base power controller, dedicated for HMC attachment. The connection between the HMC and the p655 rack is through cables available in 6-meter (#8122) and 15-meter (#8123) lengths. For specific details and considerations of connecting the RS-422 rack and the RS-232 CEC to the HMC, refer to the publications Web site and the Planning Information section of this letter.

I/O within the CEC

  • The pSeries 655 has three PCI-X slots.

I/O Drawers

  • The pSeries 655 utilizes the 7040-61D I/O drawer for directly attached PCI or PCI-X adapters and SCSI disk capabilities.

  • Each 7040-61D I/O drawer is divided into two separate halves. Each half contains 10 blind swap PCI or PCI-X slots and two Ultra3 SCSI 4-pack back planes for a total of 20 PCI or PCI-X slots and 16 hot-swap disk bays per drawer.

  • One single-wide PCI blind swap cassette (equivalent to those in feature #4599) is provided in each PCI slot of the 7040-61D. Cassettes not containing a PCI adapter will be shipped with a dummy card installed to ensure proper environmental characteristics for the drawer. If additional single-wide blind swap cassettes are needed, feature number 4599 should be ordered.

  • All ten PCI or PCI-X slots on each I/O drawer planar are capable of supporting either 64-bit or 32-bit PCI or PCI-X adapters. Each #6563 planer provides seven 3.3V, 66 MHz, 64-bit PCI slots and three 5V, 32 MHz, 64-bit PCI slots. Each #6571 planar provides ten PCI-X slots capable of supporting 3.3V signaling PCI or PCI-X adapters operating at speeds up to 133MHz.

  • While it is not optimized, #6563 PCI and #6571 PCI-X planars may reside in the same 61D I/O drawer.

  • Each I/O drawer planar incorporates two integrated Ultra3 SCSI adapters for direct attachment of the two 4-pack hot swap backplanes in that half of the drawer. These adapters do not support external SCSI device attachments.

  • Each half of the 7040-61D I/O drawer is powered separately.

I/O Drawer Attachment

  • 7040-61D I/O drawers are always connected to the p655 CEC via RIO (Remote I/O) or RIO-2 loops. 61D connections are always made in loops to help protect against a single point-of-failure resulting from an open, missing, or disconnected cable. p655 systems with non-looped configurations could experience degraded performance and serviceability.

  • RIO loop connections operate at 500MHz. RIO loops connect to the 7039-651 CEC via RIO ports within the features #5511, #5513, #5515, #5518 or #5519.

  • RIO-2 loop connections operate at 1GHz. RIO-2 loops connect to the 7039-651 CEC via RIO-2 ports within the features #5515, #5518 and #5519.

  • 7040-61D I/O drawers may be connected to the 7039-651 CEC in either single loop or dual loop mode. Dual loop mode is recommended whenever possible as it provides the maximum bandwidth between the I/O drawer and the CEC.

  • Single loop mode connects an entire I/O drawer to the CEC via one RIO or RIO-2 loop (2 ports). The two I/O planars in the I/O drawer are connected together via a short RIO or RIO-2 cable. Single loop connection requires one loop (2 ports) per I/O drawer.

  • Single loop mode connection is required for I/O drawers containing two #6563 PCI Planars attached to a single model 651 CEC.

  • Single loop mode is allowed for I/O drawers containing two #6571 PCI-X planars. However dual loop mode is recommended for this configuration.

  • Dual loop mode connects each I/O planar in the drawer to a separate CEC. Each I/O planar is connected to the CEC via separate RIO-2 loops.

  • Dual loop mode is required for I/O drawers containing one #6563 PCI I/O planar and one #6571 PCI-X I/O planar.

  • Dual loop mode is recommended for all I/O drawers containing two #6571 I/O planars.

  • PCI I/O planars (#6563) provide a RIO type cable connector for system attachment. When connecting a PCI I/O planar to a model 651 CEC, 1 meter RIO to RIO-2 cables (#3164) or 3 meter RIO to RIO-2 cables (#3165) are used. Single loop connection of two #6563 planars within an I/O drawer utilizees a 0.5M RIO cable (#3145) between the planars to complete the I/O loop.

  • PCI-X I/O planars (#6571) must be attached to the 7039-651 CEC via RIO-2 connections. RIO-2 connections for CECs to I/O drawers residing in adjacent drawers in the 7040-W42 system rack are made via 1.2 meter RIO-2 cables (#3146). Non-adjacent CEC to I/O drawers connect via 2.5 meter RIO-2 cables (#3168). Single loop connection of two #6571 planars within an I/O drawer utilize a 1.2 meter RIO-2 cable (#3146) between the planars to complete the I/O loop

Disks and Boot Devices

  • Minimum of two internal SCSI hard disks are required per p655 server. It is recommended that these disks be utilized as mirrored boot devices. This configuration provides service personnel the maximum amount of diagnostic information if the system encounters errors in the boot sequence.

  • Disk sizes offered are 18.2 GB (#3157), 36.4 GB (#3158), 73.4 GB (#3159), and 146.8 GB (#3275).

  • Boot support is also available from local SCSI, SSA, and Fibre Channel adapters, or from network via ENET or token-ring adapters.

  • The p655 incorporates an Early Power Off Warning (EPOW) capability that assists in performing an orderly system shutdown in the event of a sudden power loss. IBM recommends use of the integrated battery backup features or an uninterruptible power system (UPS) to help ensure against loss of data due to power failures.

  • Hot-swap disk capability in the p655 CEC is enabled by downloading the microcode - PCI-X Dual Channel Ultra320 SCSI Adapter bus, Version 0018

  • Ultra320 function support is limited to the p655 with feature numbers #5515, #5518, or #5519.

Rack and Power

  • The 7040-W42 rack is a 24-inch rack with an integrated power subsystem to support the pSeries 655 system. It provides 42U of rack space.

  • The 7040-W42 rack is utilized in multirack clusters. Rack indicators (such as #4651) identify the racks within the cluster and specify the desired rack in which to place various rack-mounted components.

  • The 7040-W42 rack must have door assemblies installed. The following door assemblies are available:

    • A sculptured black front door with copper accent (#6076) is available for the Model W42 rack, used with the slim-line rear door (#6078). Use this combination where system footprint is the primary consideration.

    • A sculpted black front acoustic door (#6119) is available for the Model W42 rack, used with the acoustic rear door (#6079). Use this combination when you want a quieter environment.

  • If additional external communication and storage devices are required, 7014-T00 or T42 racks should be ordered (no limit on quantity).

  • The height of the 7040-W42 rack (42U) may require special handling when shipping by air or when moving under a low doorway.

  • The weight of the 7040-W42 rack (42U) may require special handling during movement to the customer installation.

  • The 7040-W42 rack incorporates two bulk power assemblies (#8690). These provide 350 V dc power for devices located in the W42 rack. The bulk power assemblies are mounted in front and rear positions and occupy the top 8U of the rack. To provide optimum system availability, they should be powered from separate power sources via separate line cords.

  • Bulk power regulators (#6186) interface to the bulk power assemblies to ensure proper power is supplied to the systems components. The number of bulk power regulators required is configuration dependent based on the number of CECs and I/O drawers installed. The following table provides the number of bulk power regulators required for each combination of CECs and I/O drawers.

Note: (1) Configurations above this limit require the (#8686 or #8687) - Line Cord with 100A plug, (#8677) - Line Cord with no plug, or (#8680) - Line Cord with 30A plug to maintain the N+1 input power source/line cord condition. Customers have the option of continuing with the 60 Amp plug line cords, running in N mode for input power source/line cords. Customers also have the option of ordering any line cord at any time, regardless of configuration size. Two line cords are required per 7040-W42 rack, and these line cords must be identical features.

Note: (2) Configuration above this limit requires the (#6267) - Power Distribution Jumper Assembly, High Current. Rack configurations with this feature run in N mode for input power source/line cords.

  • Two Power Controller features (#6187) are required for all pSeries 655 systems, one per bulk power assembly. Each Power Controller provides power connections to support the systems four cooling fans. Three additional connectors can be utilized to attach dc power converters contained in the CEC and each I/O drawer. Ten additional connector locations are provided by the Power Distribution Assembly (#6188). Two Power Distribution Assemblies (one per Bulk Power Assembly) may be added as required to provide more connections for system configurations greater than or equal to four rack drawers.

  • The Power Distribution Jumper Assembly, High Current (#6267) does not have redundant power input at the line cords. Power input is shared between the two line cords when the #6267 is installed.

  • Optional Integrated Battery Backup is available, if desired. The primary and secondary battery backup features (#6200 and #6201) interface with the power controllers of the front and rear bulk power assemblies. The battery backup features protect against power line disturbances and provide sufficient power to allow an orderly system shutdown if power sources fail. The battery backup features require up to 6U of rack space and are always installed at the 13U location of the primary 7040-W42 rack.

  • p655 CECs and I/O drawers occupy specific locations in the 7040-W42 rack. Drawer placement is specified by the mounting location features ordered on the CEC or I/O drawer. The first p655 CEC is in Drawer #1. Additional drawers can have 7039-651 CECs, 7040-61D I/O, or IBF features of the 7040-W42 rack.

    • Drawer #1 - Placement indicator #4609 - 9U position of 7040-W42 rack

    • Drawer #2 - Placement indicator #4605 - 5U position of 7040-W42 rack

    • Drawer #3 - Placement indicator #4601 - 1U position of 7040-W42 rack

    • Drawer #4 - Placement indicator #4619 - 19U position of 7040-W42 rack

    • Drawer #5-Placement indicator #4623 - 23U position of 7040-W42 rack

    • Drawer #6 - Placement indicator #4627 - 27U position of 7040-W42 rack

    • Drawer #7 - Placement indicator #4631 - 31U position of 7040-W42 rack

    • Drawer #8 - Placement indicator #4613 - 13U position of 7040-W42 rack

      • Placement indicator #4613 - 13U position of 7040-W42 rack if Integrated Battery Backup feature (#6200) is not installed.

  • The position of the p655 CEC within the node enclosure is identified by the Power Cable Group (#38xx) for left side or right side of the enclosure.

The e-config user has control of the functional associations between p655 CECs and 61D I/O drawers. The configurator and manufacturing procedures handle the physical placement of power modules, integrated battery features, drawers, and their power connections to comply with the technical attributes, RAS capabilities, and limitations of the W42 rack.

e-config assigns rack position features during system validation. If a 7040-W42 rack is ordered, it will be assigned to the p655 CEC assigned rack position indicator feature 4609. Stand-alone p655 components can be ordered without a W42 rack. Rack position features will not be validated by e-config on stand-alone p655 orders that do not include a W42 rack or during e-config MES sessions.

Rules for Racking p655 Components

CECs will be placed first at the left rack location (as viewed from the front), then the right rack location at the same EIA position. Both EIA positions will be filled before a new CEC EIA position can be filled.

At validation:

  1. Place 7039-651 then 7040-61D when p655 has single loop RIO connection to 2x #6563 planars.

  2. Place 7039-651 then 7040-61D when p655 has single loop RIO-2 connection to 2x #6571 planars.

  3. Place 7039-651 connected to left side of 7040-61D, then place 7039-651 connected to right side of 7040-61D, then place 7040-61D when p655s have dual loop RIO connection to 2x #6563 planars.

  4. Place 7039-651 connected to left side of 7040-61D, then place 7039-651 connected to right side of 7040-61D, then place 7040-61D when p655s have dual loop RIO, RIO-2 connection to mixed planar drawer.

  5. Place 7039-651 connected to left side of 7040-61D, then place 7039-651 connected to right side of 7040-61D, then place 7040-61D when p655s have dual loop RIO-2 connection to 2x #6571 planars.

  6. Place 7039-651 then 7040-61D when p655 has RIO connection to 2x #6563 planar drawer with no connection to right side of 7040-61D.

  7. Place 7039-651 then 7040-61D when p655 has RIO connection to mixed planar drawer with no connection to right side of 7040-61D.

  8. Place 7039-651 then 7040-61D when p655 has RIO-2 connection to 2x #6571 planar drawer with no connection to right side of 7040-61D.

  9. Place 7039-651 then 7040-61D when p655 has RIO-2 connection to mixed planar drawer with no connection to left side of 7040-61D.

  10. Place 7039-651 not connected to any 7040-61D drawer

Note: 1 When ordered, the IBFs have a fixed positions in Rack EIA 13, second IBF in EIA 15, and third IBF in EIA 17.

Note: 2 When required, RIO or RIO-2 cables must be ordered on the 7040-61D for system connection validation and correct placement of the p655 components. RIO or RIO-2 cables ordered on the 7039-651 (CEC) will be ignored during e-config validation.

Note: 3 Only 1 non-system-connected 7040-61D planar (right side from the front) will be allowed per Multisystem order (per CFR). A non-system- connected 7040-61D will be identified as a 7040-61D without #3145, and only 2 RIO or 2 RIO-2 cables.

Multiple Rack Configurations

econfig is providing the capability to configure a p655 solution that requires multiple W42 racks. The user will have the ability to define the contents of each rack and assign a unique RACK ID# to each rack and also have every CEC and I/O associated with the specific rack carry the same RACK ID #.

Rack indicator features FC 4651 through FC 4666 represent Rack #'s 1 through 16 respectively.

Racking, placement and feature assignments remain the same as if a single rack is being configured. No rack to rack connections are supported. (In other words all 7040-61D's must be in the same physical rack as its associated CEC 7039-651.)

Only a quantity of 1 rack ID of each type can be configured per econfig session. Otherwise the user must configure each p655 rack solution independently in a separate configurator session.

(#4960) IBM e-business Cryptographic Accelerator

The IBM e-business Cryptographic Accelerator is a short form factor PCI Secure Socket Layer (SSL) hardware accelerator adapter. For Secure Web transaction, SSL operations is a key requirement. To do this, public-key cryptographic operations using SSL handshake protocol is employed. The IBM e-business Cryptographic Accelerator is a hardware cryptographic solution that off-loads this compute-intensive public-key cryptographic processing from the host.

The overall operation control, including command decoding, is implemented in hardware and requires no on-card microprocessor subsystem. As such, the adapter is a less expensive alternative to those who do not need the high security of the on-card secure programming environment such as is offered by the PCI Cryptographic Coprocessor(#4958), but do need the high cryptographic performance that hardware acceleration provides by offloading the host processor.

Note: The IBM e-business Cryptographic Accelerator is only supported by the industry standard PKCS #11 application programming interface (API) Version 2.01, and applications which interface to the PKCS #11 Support Program.

The adapter is IEEE 802.3u compatible and provides full auto-negotiation for detecting speed and duplex capability across each port. Network boot capability and Network Install Manager (NIM) capability are available using this adapter if no specific limitation is stated. The IBM Universal 4-Port 10/100 Ethernet Adapter (#4961) should be considered where maximum port density is required per I/O card slot. But, for high end systems, where card slots are not the limiting factor and maximum throughput is required, the single port IBM 10/100 Mbps Ethernet PCI Adapter II (#4962) or the IBM 10/100 Mbps Ethernet PCI Adapter (#2968) are the preferred solutions. Below are some performance factors to consider when choosing the right adapter for your needs. These performance comparisons are based on all four ports of the IBM Universal 4-Port 10/100 Ethernet Adapter (#4961) being active.

  • With all four ports under full bandwidth conditions, a single IBM Universal 4-Port 10/100 Ethernet Adapter (#4961) is expected to deliver up to 3 times the comparable performance of a single IBM 10/100 Mbps Ethernet PCI Adapter II (#4962) or the IBM 10/100 Mbps Ethernet PCI Adapter (#2968).
  • Under most conditions, each port of the IBM Universal 4-Port 10/100 Ethernet Adapter (#4961) is expected to perform at greater than 50% the throughput of the single port of the IBM 10/100 Mbps Ethernet PCI Adapter II (#4962) or the IBM 10/100 Mbps Ethernet PCI Adapter (#2968).

Note: The resulting performance in your environment compared to the above may vary and depends upon the RS/6000 model, the I/O configuration, and associated workload of your applications.

The IBM 2-Port Gigabit Ethernet-SX PCI-X Adapter (#5707) should be considered where maximum port density is required per I/O card slot. For a suggested maximum number of adapters taking performance into consideration, refer to the RS/6000 & pSeries PCI Adapter Placement Reference SA38-0538. If card slots are not the limiting factor and maximum throughput is required, the single port IBM Gigabit Ethernet-SX PCI-X Adapter (#5700) is the preferred solution. Note: For optimum performance, the adapter should be placed in a 64 bit PCI-X card slot whenever possible.

Note: The 2-Port IBM Gigabit Ethernet-SX PCI-X Adapter incorporates an LC type connector on the card. This new, smaller form factor connector is being used by the industry for the next generation of fiber optic networks. If connecting into an older, existing SC type connector network, an LC-SC 62.5 Micron Fiber Converter Cable (#2459) or LC-SC 50 Micron Fiber Converter Cable (#2456) is required.

Limitation: Half-Duplex (HDX) mode is not supported.

(#5710) PCI-X Dual Channel Ultra320 SCSI Blind Swap Adapter

(No Longer Available as of March 31, 2006)

The PCI-X Dual Channel Ultra320 SCSI Blind Swap Adapter (#5710) is a 64-bit 3.3 volt adapter and is an excellent solution for high-performance SCSI applications. The PCI-X Dual Channel Ultra320 SCSI Blind Swap Adapter provides two SCSI channels (busses), each capable of running 320 MBps (max.), up to twice the maximum data transfer rate of the previous Dual Channel Ultra3 SCSI adapter (160 MBps). Each SCSI bus can either be internal (on systems that support internal SCSI device or backplane attachments) or external. Internally attached Ultra320 devices can run at a data rate of up to 320 MB per second on systems that have internal backplanes that are capable of supporting Ultra320 speeds.

In order to achieve an Ultra320 SCSI bus data rate of up to 320 MB per second and also maintain a reasonable drive distance, the adapter utilizes Low Voltage Differential (LVD) drivers and receivers. To fully utilize this 320 MB per second performance, all attaching devices should also be Ultra320 LVD devices. But, if Ultra2, Ultra3, or Ultra320 devices coexist on the same bus, each device will operate at its rated speed. For lower speed single-ended (SE) devices, the SCSI bus will switch to single-ended (SE) performance and interface to all devices on that SCSI bus at the lower SE bus data rate of the device.

Two industry standard VHDCI 68-pin connectors are mounted on the adapter's end bracket allowing attachment of various LVD and SE external subsystems. A .3 meter converter cable, VHDCI to P, Mini-68 pin to 68-pin, (#2118) can be used with older external SE devices or subsystems to allow connection to the VHDCI connector on the PCI-X Dual Channel Ultra320 SCSI Blind Swap Adapter.

The two external ports provide connectivity to an IBM 2104-DS4 Expandable Storage Plus Drawer or 2104-TS4 Expandable Storage Plus Tower at up to 320 MB/s SCSI bus data rate. The two external ports also provide connectivity to an IBM 2104-DU3 Expandable Storage Plus Drawer or 2104-TU3 Expandable Storage Plus Tower at up to 160 MB/s SCSI bus data rate and to an IBM 2104-DL1 Expandable Storage Plus Drawer or 2104-TL1 Expandable Storage Plus Tower at up to 80 MB/s SCSI bus data rate. Also the two external ports provide connectivity to numerous other SCSI external subsystems. Check the external subsystem sales/web pages for verification of connectivity support with this adapter.

The PCI-X Dual Channel Ultra320 SCSI Blind Swap Adapter (#5710) is a native boot adapter with AIX 5.1 or AIX 5.2 software in a supported pSeries or RS/6000 systems. The adapter also supports target mode.

Limitations:

  • The two external ports do not support the connection to the IBM 7131-105 IBM Multi-Storage Tower Model 105.
  • Even though the Dual Channel Ultra320 SCSI RAID Blind Swap Adapter has ports that run at ultra320 SCSI speeds (up to 320 MBytes/s), the internally attached disk drives will run at a maximum SCSI bus data rate specified by that supporting system disk backplane.
  • Disk drives internal to the pSeries system shipped prior to September 1, 2003 require a disk drive microcode update to run at Ultra320 speed. To obtain the appropriate microcode update, go to the following web page URL:

(#5711) PCI-X Dual Channel Ultra320 SCSI RAID Blind Swap Adapter

The PCI-X Dual Channel Ultra320 SCSI RAID Blind Swap Adapter (#5711) is a 64-bit 3.3 volt, bootable high performance Ultra320 SCSI RAID Adapter providing RAID 0,5, or 10 capability and can address up to thirty 16-bit SCSI physical disk drives on two independent SCSI buses.

To increase the data writing performance, a 40 MByte fast-write cache is provided as a resident part of this adapter. The 40 MByte fast-write cache is resident on the Dual Channel Ultra320 SCSI RAID Blind Swap Adapter and utilizes non-volatile RAM. The 40 MByte fast-write cache can provide an significant improvement in data throughput and response time during certain sequence write operations compared to SCSI RAID adapters without the fast-write cache. The response time and data transfer improvement will vary depending upon the data block sizes, the percentage of sequential writes, machine type/model, and application parameters.

The Dual Channel Ultra320 SCSI RAID Blind Swap Adapter has two independent ultra320 SCSI buses. There are two internal ports and two external ports. The two internal ports are shared with the two external ports. The SCSI busses can drive either an internal port or an external port. The internal ports can be used to provide an internal RAID solution on certain supporting pSeries systems with internal multiple disk drives or packs of drives. Internally attached Ultra320 devices are designed to run at a data rate of up to 320 MB per second on systems that have internal backplanes that are capable of supporting Ultra320 speeds.

In order to achieve an Ultra320 SCSI bus data rate of up to 320 MB per second and also maintain a reasonable drive distance, the adapter utilizes Low Voltage Differential (LVD) drivers and receivers. To fully utilize this 320 MB per second performance, all attaching devices should also be Ultra320 LVD devices. But, if Ultra2, Ultra3, or Ultra320 devices coexist on the same bus, each device will operate at its rated speed. For lower speed single-ended (SE) devices, the SCSI bus will switch to single-ended (SE) performance and interface to all devices on that SCSI bus at the lower SE bus data rate of the device.

When an array configuration is selected with the RAID Manager, the disk drives being designated as part of the array (attached to either the internal or external ports) are required to be formatted to 522 byte sectors. 522 byte sectors provide additional CRC error checking for improved data integrety. A menu option is provided in the AIX supporting software which will reformat these disk drives prior to their usage in an array. Conversely, when a disk drive is removed from an array, a similar menu option is also provided to re-format them back to 512 byte sectors.

Note: Some disk drives require that their microcode be updated to the latest level before being formatted to 522 Byte Sectors.

Also, there are some disk drives which do not support being formatted to 522 Byte Sectors. The PCI-X SCSI Disk Array Manager will inform the user of these known situations when they exist. For disk microcode updates, go to the following Web page URL:

(#6203) PCI Dual Channel Ultra3 SCSI Adapter

(No Longer Available as of December 12, 2003)

The PCI Dual Channel Ultra3 SCSI Adapter (#6203) is a 64-bit adapter and is an excellent solution for high-performance SCSI applications. The PCI Dual Channel Ultra3 SCSI Adapter provides two SCSI channels (busses). Each SCSI bus can either be internal (on systems that support internal SCSI device or backplane attachments) or external and will support a data rate of up to 160 MBytes per second, up to twice the maximum data transfer rate of the previous Dual Channel Ultra2 SCSI adapter (80 MBytes per second).

In order to achieve an Ultra3 SCSI bus data rate of up to 160 MBytes per second and also maintain a reasonable drive distance, the adapter utilizes Low Voltage Differential (LVD) drivers and receivers. To fully utilize this Ultra3 160 MBytes per second performance, all attaching devices or subsystems should also be Ultra3 LVD devices. But, if Ultra2 and Ultra3 devices coexist on the same bus, each device will operate at its rated speed. For lower speed single-ended (SE) devices, the SCSI bus will switch to single-ended (SE) performance and interface at the lower SE bus data rate of the device.

Two industry standard VHDCI 68-pin connectors are mounted on the adapter's end bracket allowing attachment of various LVD and SE external subsystems. A .3 meter converter cable, VHDCI to P, Mini-68 pin to 68-pin, (#2118) can be used with older external SE subsystems to allow connection to the VHDCI connector on the PCI Dual Channel Ultra3 SCSI Adapter.

Note: If any Single Ended (SE) SCSI subsystem is attached to an external port of this adapter, the SCSI port will auto-throttle to a "Fast" interface speed running no faster than 20MB/s maximum. This auto- throttle function is performed to ensure best signal quality between host adapter and attaching subsystem. The second external port is unaffected unless a SE subsystem is also attached to it. If so, it would also auto- throttle as described above.

(#6230) - Advanced SerialRAID Plus Adapter

(No Longer Available as of June 24, 2005)

The Advanced SerialRAID Plus Adapter (#6230) is a 4 port (2 loop) Serial Storage Architecture (SSA) adapter providing an instantaneous data transfer rate of up to 160 MByte/s per loop. It also provides eight- initiator, non-RAID capability, two-initiator RAID 1, two-initiator RAID 0 + 1, two-initiator RAID 5, or one-initiator RAID 0 capability. The adapter accepts a 32 MByte Fast-Write Cache Option Card (#6235) that improves write performance in RAID 0+1, RAID 5, and non-RAID applications. When the 32 MByte Fast-Write Cache Option Card is used, the adapter can be configured in either single or dual initiator fast- write cache mode. In dual initiator fast-write cache mode, if one of the two adapters fail, the failing adapter is designed to transfer control over to the other. Also, in dual initiator Fast Write Cache mode, the 128 MByte DRAM Option Card (#6231) is available and required to utilize the full 32 MBytes of fast-write cache on the adapters. If the 128 MByte DRAM Option Card is not used in dual initiator fast-write cache mode, the effective fast-write cache capacity will be 16 MBytes on each adapter. See the 128 MByte DRAM Option Card (#6231) for information.

The Advanced SerialRAID Plus Adapter when operated in a RAID 5 configuration will support (2+P) to (15+P) arrays and up to 6 (15+P) arrays. When operated in a RAID 1 or RAID 0+1 configuration, will support up to eight disk drives mirrored. The adapter also supports Hot Spares in RAID 5 and RAID 0+1 mode. The Advanced SerialRAID Plus Adapter also supports connectivity to external disk enclosures and internal RS/6000 SSA configurations. Optional SSA Fiber-Optic Extender is also supported (Refer to IBM 7133 Sales literature for additional information)

Any supported RS/6000 system can be set up to boot from an Advanced SerialRAID Plus Adapter (#6230), provided a non-RAID SSA disk is included as part of the configuration. Other disks associated with the adapter can be RAID but at least one disk must be a non-RAID SSA disk. The non-RAID SSA disk can be located under the covers of a processor unit or in an external SSA storage unit. If your system is running with AIX 4.3.3 or later software, native boot capability is supported. For factory system orders with AIX preload requested, an internal SCSI disk drive will be preloaded as the native boot disk even if internal SSA disk drive(s) are present. If your system is running with AIX 4.2.1 or AIX 4.3.2 software, the below procedure applies in order to boot using the Advanced SerialRAID Plus Adapter:

  • The non-RAID SSA disk can be located under the covers of a processor unit or in an external SSA storage unit.

  • A supported AIX version of software (with proper updates) must be loaded to the non-RAID SSA disk using AIX's Network Install Manager (NIM) before booting from the non-RAID disk.

  • The system with a non-RAID SSA disk must have a network connection with another RS/6000 system performing the NIM Master function to perform the install. On RS/6000 SP systems, a similar network install is performed from a control workstation.

  • Once AIX with updates is installed on the non-RAID SSA disk and the system is configured for booting, booting will take place from the boot disk without any support from the control processor or NIM Master and the system does not have to be connected to the network at boot time.

After October 3, 2000, a 3-Way Copy Function will be available. This 3-Way Copy Function allows a user to create a third copy to an existing RAID-1 or RAID 0+1 array while mirrored operation continues. 3-Way Copy allows the user, at any time after the copy process has completed, to split the third copy off from the original RAID-1 or RAID 0+1 array to form an independent RAID copy. This third copy or "snapshot" copy could be typically used to perform a backup or to test some new application. The 3-Way Copy Function is available only via a code download and can only be gained by going to the SSA web support pages defined below.

When performing SSA device or subsystem planning, installation, upgrades, or preventive maintenance, refer to the following Web support pages. They provide access to the latest SSA publications and support code for the system, SSA adapters, and SSA subsystems. These sites should also be considered during system hardware and/or operating system upgrades if SSA devices are included in the system.

(#6231) - 128 MByte DRAM Option Card

(No Longer Available as of June 24, 2005)

The 128 MByte DRAM Option Card (#6231) is a field only optional feature to the Advanced SerialRAID Adapter (#6225) or a factory or field option for the Advanced SerialRAID Plus Adapter (#6230). This option is recommended for dual initiator fail-over Fast Write Cache (FWC) configurations. The option increases the existing DRAM on the adapter to 128 MBytes. In this type of dual initiator FWC configuation, the existing DRAM does not have enough capacity to completely contain a copy of each adapter's 32 MByte FWC and also provide additional working space. The 128 MByte DRAM Option Card provides this additional space needed to contain a full copy of each adapters 32 MByte FWC content and allows for full 32 MByte fail-over protection. If the 128 MByte DRAM Option Card (#6231) is not used with dual-initiator FWC configurations, the effective FWC capacity is reduced to 16 MBytes per adapter.

If this feature is ordered as a field upgrade to an existing SerialRAID adapter (#6225 or 6230), a CD-ROM with appropriate software and publications are also provided.

  • Attributes provided: 128 MByte DRAM memory

(#6235) - 32 MByte Fast-Write Cache Option Card

(No Longer Available as of June 24, 2005)

The 32 MByte Fast-Write Cache Option Card (#6235) is a 32 MByte fast- write optional feature that plugs into the IBM RS/6000 Advanced SerialRAID Adapter (#6225) or the Advanced SerialRAID Adapter Plus (#6230). It utilizes non-volatile RAM. During the unlikely event of an Advanced SerialRAID Adapter failure, a replacement Advanced SerialRAID Adapter can be installed and the fast-write cache can be removed from the failing adapter and installed in the new adapter helping to insure data integrity. The 32 MByte Fast-Write Cache Option Card can provide a significant improvement of data throughput and response time during certain sequence write operations compared to SSA RAID adapters without the fast-write cache. The response time and data transfer improvement using the optional card will vary depending upon the data block sizes, the percentage of sequential writes, machine type/model, and application parameters. The 32 MByte Fast-Write Cache Option Card plugged into the Advanced SerialRAID Adapter (# 6225) will operate in either non-RAID or RAID 5 mode, in single-initiator configurations. The 32 MByte Fast-Write Cache Option Card plugged into the Advanced SerialRAID Plus Adapter (#6230) will operate in non-RAID, RAID 5, or RAID 0+1 mode, in single- initiator or dual initiator configurations.

(#6239) 2 Gigabit Fibre Channel PCI-X Adapter

(No Longer Available as of December 30, 2005)

The 2 Gigabit Fibre Channel PCI-X Adapter is a 64-bit address/data, short form factor PCI-X adapter with an LC type external fiber connector that provides single or dual initiator capability over an optical fiber link or loop. With the use of appropriate optical fiber cabling, this adapter provides the capability for a network of high speed local and remote located storage. The 2 Gigabit Fibre Channel PCI-X Adapter will auto-negotiate for the highest data rate (either 1 Gbps or 2 Gbps) of which the device or switch is capable. Distances of up to 500 meters running at 1 Gbps data rate and up to 300 meters running at 2 Gbps data rate are supported between the adapter and an attaching device or switch. When used with IBM supported Fibre Channel storage switches supporting long-wave optics, distances of up to 10 kilometers are capable running at either 1 Gbps or 2 Gbps data rates.

The 2 Gigabit Fibre Channel PCI-X Adapter can be used to attach devices either directly, or by means of Fibre Channel Switches. If attaching a device or switch with a SC type fiber onnector(s), use of an LC-SC 50 Micron Fiber Converter Cable (#2456) or a LC-SC 62.5 Micron Fiber Converter Cable (#2459) is required.
