The 2,000-watt power supply supports the increased demands of the
BladeCenter HS20 blades. It comes standard in the 8677-3XX BladeCenter.
BladeCenter HS20
High-performance Blade-server subsystems
The IBM eServer BladeCenter HS20 blades servers are high-throughput,
two-way, SMP-capable Xeon-based blade servers, highly scalable when you
add memory. These flip-chip, pin grid array 2 (FC-PGA2) processors
feature advanced transfer L2 caches integrated onto the processor core
and run at the same clock speed. The advanced transfer cache is a result
of a "backside bus" 256 bits wide. It features a quad-wide cache line
that can transfer four 64-bit cache line segments at one time to deliver
full-speed capability. The cache is eight-way set associative.
Two Intel Xeon processors with EM64T are standard on the blade server.
High-speed, PC2100 DDR SDRAM is synchronized for up to 533 MHz
processor-to-memory subsystem performance with current processors.
The IBM eServer BladeCenter HS20 uses the fourth-generation
ServerWorks Grand Champion Low End (GCLE) SystemSet chipset that
includes:
- Grand Champion Memory and I/O Controller (CMIC-LE5)
- Champion South Bridge 6 (CSB6-U)
- Champion I/O Bridge (CIOB-ES)
The CMIC-LE5 controls two main functional units:
- High-performance main memory subsystem, maximizing throughput from
processors to memory
- Inter Module Bus, maximizing throughput from the processor bus to the
I/O busses
The CSB6-U delivers PCI function and integrates the following key I/O
functions:
- IDE controller and HDDs
- USB supporting four USB ports
- Power management logic
- PCI bus interface for video controller
- Systems management bus, supporting Phillips I2C two-wire protocol
interface
- Low power controller interface for POST/BIOS EEPROM
- Dual Gb Ethernet connections
- One external PCI-X bus segment for daughter card connector

Systems management
IBM Director
BladeCenter HS20 blade servers include IBM Director. This powerful,
highly integrated systems management software solution is built on
industry standards and designed for ease of use.
Exploit your existing enterprise or workgroup management environments
and use rich security features to access and manage physically dispersed
IT assets more efficiently over the Internet.
It can help reduce costs through:
- Reduced downtime
- Increased productivity of IT personnel and end users
- Reduced service and support costs
IT administrators can view the hardware configuration of remote
systems in detail and monitor the usage and performance of critical
components such as processors, HDDs, and memory. IBM Director can be
extended with optional add-ons for advanced server management,
deployment, and software distribution. All of these tools smoothly
integrate into IBM Director for consistent look-and-feel and single point
of management while taking advantage of the IBM Director monitoring,
scheduling, alerting, event management, and group management
capabilities.
Optional add-ons
- The IBM Director Server Plus Pack is a collection of five tools with
predictive and autonomic capabilities that help deliver optimal server
performance and high availability. The five tools include Capacity
Manager, Software Rejuvenation, Active PCI Manager, System Availability,
and Rack Manager.
- Application Workload Manager extends IBM Director to enable the
control of how multiple applications use server resources and protects
against unexpected resource contention.
- Remote Deployment Manager (RDM) is an effective tool for the initial
deployment phase of a system's life cycle with its ability to remotely
send out complete software images for installation in a preboot
environment.
- Software Distribution Premium Edition enables you to create and
distribute software packages to systems on your network, saving travel
and labor costs.
IBM Director also enables integration into leading workgroup and
enterprise systems management environments via its Upward Integration
Modules. This enables the advanced management capabilities built into
xSeries servers to be accessed from:
- Tivoli Enterprise and Tivoli Netview
- Computer Associates CA Unicenter TNG
- HP OpenView
- Microsoft SMS
- BMC Patrol
- NetlQ
For more information about IBM Director, refer to Software
Announcement 202-246, dated September 24, 2002.
RDM for BladeCenter
BladeCenter can use RDM, which enables the configuration and
deployment of BladeCenter HS20 blade servers within a single BladeCenter.
This highly flexible and powerful tool enables you to deploy system
images that include the operating system and configuration detail to one
or more blade servers at one time from an IBM Director console on the
network.
With RDM you can:
- Add instructions for loading firmware or specific operating systems
- Deploy multiple blade servers in a BladeCenter at one time
- Store various images on the RDM server for target server
installations
- Restore initial or incremental disk image locally with a keystroke
- Drop and drag capability to deploy images
BladeCenter management module
Use the management module in the BladeCenter to manage the BladeCenter
and obtain vital system information about your installed BladeCenter HS20
servers. The management module communicates with the blade servers
within the BladeCenter via an RS-485 intermanagement network. This
network relays vital information about individual blade servers such as:
- Temperature
- Voltages
- Power supply status
- Memory status
- Fan status
- HDD status
- Error and status log
You receive status and control all blade servers within the
BladeCenter. You can shut down and restart any blade server from
anywhere on the network to help save time and costs associated with
travel to the actual installation.
These manageability functions are provided through a self-contained
web page, creating an easy and familiar way for administrators to
monitor, control, and maintain high availability.

Product Positioning
|
The BladeCenter and BladeCenter HS20 offerings are positioned as the
highest density servers of the IBM eServer line. They represent a new
approach to the deployment of application servers where two-way,
SMP-capable Xeon processing, high-availability design, systems
management, and easy setup features are combined in an extremely dense
package.
The BladeCenter 8677-3XX in just 7 U of rack space contains up to 14
blade servers and two 2,000-watt power supplies to provide the necessary
I/O network switching, power, cooling, and control panel information.
When compared to most Intel processor-based 1 U high servers, the
BladeCenter can support twice the amount of processing power in the same
rack space.
The BladeCenter and BladeCenter HS20 blades can require less space and
power resources because of their high-density design, reduced power
requirements, and single environment systems management. This is an
extremely important consideration for:
- Large enterprises
- Application service providers
- Scientific and technical computing businesses
They are an excellent fit for applications such as:
- Lotus Notes
- Microsoft Exchange
- Linux clusters
