All measurements made in accordance with ISO 7779 and reported in conformance with ISO 9296. eServer 326 servers are intended for use as rack-drawer servers and are tested and designed to operate in a horizontal position. Standards These systems support or comply with the following standards: Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) specification 2.2 Hardware-enabled to meet the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 9241, Part 3 Equipment approvals and safety FCC - Verified to comply with Part 15 of the FCC Rules, Class A Canada ICES-003, issue 3, Class A UL 1950(12) CSA C22.2 No. 950 NOM-018(12) Note: (12) These servers are certified by the respective UL and NOM agencies. Operating Environment Temperature: 10.0 to 35.0 degrees C (50 to 95 degrees F) (Server on) 0.0 to 60.0 degrees C (-32 to 140 degrees F) (Server off) Relative humidity: 8% to 80% Maximum altitude: 2,133 m (7,000 ft) Heat output: 1451 Btu/hr (maximum configuration) Electrical power: 100 to 127 V ac, .40 kVA maximum 200 to 240 V ac, .40 kVA maximum Capacity of exhaust: 52 CFM (1.472 CMM) Noise level: 6.5 bels (idling) Limitations The IBM eServer 326 server contains a single, configurable serial port. It can be configured to be operating-system controlled, service-processor controlled, or shared between the two. You can set the configuration by changing the header location to which the internal serial cable is plugged. The default location from the factory is in the shared position. In the shared position, the service processor controls the port until the operating system is running, then the operating system takes control. The service processor can regain control of the port for user-configured dial-out situations or if the operating system is not available, but operating system control cannot be reestablished without resetting the server. The IBM eServer 326 servers can address a maximum of 16 GB of system memory by adding a 2 GB PC2700 CL2.5 ECC DDR SDRAM RDIMM in each of the eight DIMM slots. All supported system memory is addressable through direct memory access. The IBM eServer 326 server supports 512 MB and 1 GB of PC3200 CL3 ECC DDR SDRAM RDIMM or 512 MB, 1 GB, and 2 GB PC2700 CL2.5 ECC DDR SDRAM RDIMM memory. All supported DIMMs can coexist in the same system. Memory must be populated in pairs. Note: Memory capacity is based on 2 GB PC2700 CL2.5 ECC DDR SDRAM RDIMM memory. Only dual-processor systems support 16 GB of memory. Single processors only support 8 GB. Maximum memory capacity using PC3200 CL3 ECC DDR SDRAM RDIMM memory would be 8 GB in a dual processor system. To ensure proper air flow for cooling, the IBM eServer 326 server requires a rack with a perforated door, such as the NetBAY42 SR or NetBAY25 SR. An alternative is to remove the front door of rack cabinets where the door panel is of solid construction. Microprocessor SMP upgrades must be of the same type and clock speed. Mixing microprocessors of different speeds or cache size is not supported. SATA HDDs are not supported on the following operating systems: SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 8 for AMD64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (v2.1 for x86) Use the latest version of ServerGuide that is available on the Web. Earlier versions of ServerGuide may not be compatible with the server. Refer to the Software Requirements section for operating system limitations. Hardware Requirements For attended installation of an operating system, this server requires a compatible: Keyboard Mouse HDD Display Unattended or remote installation may be performed without requiring some or all of these components. Review your unattended software installation program information for specific hardware configuration requirements. For service, the server requires a compatible: Keyboard Mouse HDD Display When having the unit serviced, plan to have these components attached to your server either directly or indirectly via a console. Software Requirements Software Compatibility The following software products have been tested by IBM and software publishers in the latest available versions, and where appropriate, are or will soon be certified by the publisher to be compatible with the eServer 326: OPERATING SYSTEMS: Microsoft: Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Edition (32-bit) Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition - (32-bit) Linux: SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 8 for AMD64(13) SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 for AMD64 and EM64T(13) Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (v2.1 for x86)(13) Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (v3 for x68)(13) Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (v3 for AMD64 and EM64T)(13) Note: (13) Certification is planned for these operating systems.
