Model Abstract 9117-570

The 9117 IBM eServer p5 model 570 Rack-mount Server gives you a modular mid-range solution for managing e-business computing requirements.

The p5-570 uses a 4U rack-mounted server drawer as its basic building block and can be configured with one to four drawers in a single rack.

With two processor card positions per drawer, the p5 model 570 is available in 2-, 4-, 8-, 12-, and 16-way configurations.

The symmetric multiprocessor (SMP) server uses 2-way processor cards with state-of-the-art, 64-bit, copper-based, POWER5 microprocessors running at either 1.5 GHz, 1.65 GHz, or 1.9 GHz. Each processor card has 36 MB of Level 3 cache and 8 slots for memory DIMMs. The base 2 GB of system memory can be expanded up to 512 GB in a four-drawer system.

Each drawer of a p5-570 system contains six disk drive bays and six 3.3-volt PCI-X slots. With up to 24 disk bays, the model 570 can accommodate up to 3,523.2 GB of internal disk storage. Each drawer can also hold two DVD-RAM or DVD-ROM drives.

Other integrated features include:

Service processor
Two 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports per drawer
Two internal Ultra320 SCSI controllers per drawer
Two serial ports per system
Two USB 2.0 ports per drawer
Two HMC ports per system
Two remote I/O (RIO-2) ports per drawer
Redundant hot-swap power and cooling

Dynamic logical partitioning (LPAR), with optional micro-partitioning, and Capacity on Demand (CoD) are supported on the p5 model 570.

The p5-570 is supported with the IBM eServer pSeries Cluster 1600 running Cluster Systems Management (CSM) V1.4 (AIX and LINUX). For hardware control using CSM, Capacity on Demand, or Advanced Power Virtualization, an HMC is required.

Capacity on Demand

The Capacity on Demand (CoD) suite of offerings provides permanent nondisruptive growth as well as temporary additional capacity for short term processing needs. Available for a fee, CoD allows additional processors and memory to be brought on line as they are needed to meet increasing workload demands. If the system is configured for dynamic LPAR, this can be accomplished without impacting operations and avoiding costly down time. These features have significant value for users who want to upgrade without disruption, enhance their system RAS (reliability, availability, serviceability) characteristics, or simply grow with a finer level of granularity. The CoD features allow a system to be manufactured (or upgraded) with inactive processors and memory. The hardware is delivered with these features built in, ready to be activated when needed. It can turned on by ordering processor or memory activation features. These features deliver an activation code which is entered at the HMC to enable the resource either permanently or temporarily, depending on which activation feature is ordered.

Types of CoD Activations

Permanent CUoD for Processors and Permanent CUoD for Memory are activations which permanently enable inactive processors or memory for future use.

On/Off CoD enables users to temporarily activate processors and memory. Processors and Memory may be activated and turned off an unlimited number of times whenever the client desires additional processing resources. This offering provides a system administrator an interface at the HMC to manage the activation and de-activation of resources. A monitor which resides on the server logs the usage activity. Clients must send this usage data to IBM monthly. A bill is then generated based on the total amount of processor and memory resources utilized, in increments of Processor and Memory (1 GB) Days.

Reserve CoD represents an "autonomic" way to activate temporary capacity. Reserve CoD enables the user to place a quantity of inactive processors into the server's Shared Processor Pool which then become available to the pool's resource manager. When the server recognizes the number of base (purchased/active) processors assigned across uncapped partitions have been 100% utilized, and at least 10% of an additional processor is needed, then a Processor Day (good for a 24 hour period) is charged against the Reserve CoD account balance. Another Processor Day will be charged for each additional processor put into use based on the 10% utilization rule. After a 24-hour period elapses, and there is no longer a need for the additional performance, no Processor Days will be charged until the next performance spike. Reserve COD requires Advanced POWER Virtualization (#7942) to be active on the system.

Trial Capacity on Demand (Trial CoD) is a function delivered with all pSeries servers having inactive CoD processors or memory. Those servers with inactive CoD processors or memory will be capable of using a one-time, no-cost activation for a maximum period of 30 consecutive days. This enhancement allows for benchmarking of CoD resources or can be used to provide immediate access to inactive resources while the purchase of permanent or temporary activations is pending.

Accessibility by people with disabilities

IBM eServer p5 570 is capable as of August 31, 2004, when used in accordance with IBM's associated documentation, of satisfying the applicable requirements of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, provided that any assistive technology used with the product properly interoperates with it.

Limitations

Processors

A p5 570 system can have from 1 to 4 system drawers. Each drawer has two processor slots. A system with one drawer may have one or two processor cards installed. A system with 2, 3, or 4 drawers must have two processor cards in each drawer.
When two or more processor cards are installed, all cards must have the same processor frequency.
Each processor card has two processors and eight memory DIMM slots. The DIMM slots are different for DDR1 and DDR2 memory. All processor cards must support the same memory technology, either DDR1 or DDR2.
Systems configured with 1.5 GHz processors have a maximum of eight processors and two drawers.

Memory

The 9117-570 must contain a minimum of 2 GB of system memory. Memory is expandable up to a maximum of 512 GB with DDR1 DIMMs, or a maximum of 64 GB with DDR2 DIMMs.
Memory is installed in groups of four DIMMs mounted on the processor cards. Each processor card has 8 DIMM slots.
DDR1 memory is supported on 1.5 GHz processor cards (#7834), 1.65 GHz processor cards (#7830), and 1.9 GHz processor cards (#7832). DDR2 memory is supported only on 1.9 GHz processor cards (#7833). All DIMMs in a 570 system must use the same memory technology, either DDR1 or DDR2.
Each processor card must have at least 2 GB of memory installed.
It is recommended that each processor card have an equal amount of memory installed. Balancing memory across the installed processor cards allows memory accesses in a coordinated parallel manner and can be utilized to provide optimal performance.
Memory features #4492, #4494, and #7049 can be mixed on the same processor card. No other memory features can be installed on the same processor card with #4492, #4494, or #7049.
Plans for future memory upgrades should be taken into account to obtain optimal performance without limiting future memory expansion.

Power

Two power supplies must be ordered to provide redundancy for enhanced system availability.

Power Distribution Units
For systems installed in IBM 7014-T00 or 7014-T42 racks, the following Power Distribution Unit (PDU) rules apply:

For PDU features 9176, 9177, 7176, 7177: Each pair of PDUs can power up to 3 p570 server drawers (3 drawers per 2 PDUs).
For PDU features 9178, 7178: Each pair of PDU's can power up to 6 p570 server drawers (6 drawers per 2 PDUs).
For PDU features 9188, 7188, when using power cord 6654, 6655, 6656, 6657, or 6658: Each pair of PDUs can power up to 3 p570 server drawers (3 drawers per 2 PDUs).
For PDU features 9188, 7188, when using power cord 6489, 6491, 6492, or 6653: Each pair of PDUs can power up to 6 p570 server drawers (6 drawers per 2 PDUs).
Each server drawer has two power supplies, which must be connected to separate PDUs to provide full redundancy.
Server power cords should be evenly spread across the available PDU power outlets, to distribute the current across multiple circuit breakers.

Racks

The model 570 consists of 1 to 4 system drawers. Each drawer occupies 4U of vertical rack space. The p5-570 is designed to be installed in a 7014-T00 or 7014-T42 rack. An existing T00 or T42 rack can be used for model 570 if sufficient space and power are available. Model 570 is not supported in the withdrawn 7015-R00 and 7014-S00 racks.
For p5-570 configurations with 2, 3, or 4 drawers, all drawers must be installed together in the same rack, in a continuous space of 8U, 12U, or 16U within the rack.
When a p5 570 system is installed in an IBM 7014-T00 or 7014-T42 rack that has no front door, a Thin Profile Front Trim Kit must ordered for the rack. The front bezel on a model 570 drawer is too wide to be used with the previously announced rack trim kits (features #6107 and #6081). The required trim kit for the 7014-T00 rack is feature #6246. The required trim kit for the 7014-T42 rack is feature #6247.
The IBM 7014-T42 rack is constructed with a small flange at the bottom of EIA location 37. This requires special placement rules when a model 570 system is installed near the top of a 7014-T42 rack, to avoid interference with the front bezel or with the front flex cable, depending on the system configuration. No system drawer can be installed in EIA positions 34, 35, or 36. A two-drawer system can not be installed above position 33. A three-drawer system can not be installed above position 25. A four-drawer system can not be installed above position 21. (The position number refers to bottom of the lowest drawer.)
The design of the p5 model 570 is optimized for use in an IBM 7014-T00 or T42 rack. Both the front cover and the processor flex cables occupy space on the front left side of an IBM 7014 rack that may not be available in typical non-IBM racks. The SMP cables were specifically designed to support seamless (4-way node) upgradability and future concurrent maintenance features of these POWER5 systems. The use of non-IBM racks may limit a customer's ability to exploit these ease-of-use, upgradability and serviceability enhancements in the future.

I/O Drawers

Model 570 systems can be attached to 7311-D10, 7311-D11, or 7311-D20 I/O drawers, using the standard and optional RIO-2 ports.
The maximum number of attached RIO-2 I/O drawers depends on the number of system drawers, as follows:

One-drawer systems support up to 8 I/O drawers
Two-drawer systems support up to 12 I/O drawers
Three-drawer systems support up to 16 I/O drawers
Four-drawer systems support up to 20 I/O drawers

When a 7311-D10 or 7311-D20 I/O drawer is attached to a model 570 system, the I/O drawer must be configured with a RIO-2 Remote I/O adapter. The supported RIO-2 adapter for 7311-D10 is feature #6431. The supported RIO-2 adapter for 7311-D20 is feature #6417. The previous RIO adapters, #6414 and #6413, can not be used for attachment to a model 570 system.
When a 7311-D10 or a 7311-D20 I/O drawer is attached to a model 570 system, some PCI adapters are not supported. The following 7311-D10 and/or 7311-D20 features must not be installed in an I/O drawer if it is attached to a model 570 system. If they are present in a previously configured I/O drawer, they must be removed prior to attachment to a p5 570.

I/O Drawer Attachment

It is recommended that any attached I/O drawers be located in the same rack as the p5-570 server for ease of service, but they can be installed in separate racks, if desired.
I/O drawers are connected to the p5-570 drawer via the following cables:

RIO cables for data transfer
Power control cables

RIO cable connections are always made in loops to help protect against a single point-of-failure resulting from an open, missing, or disconnected cable. Model 570 systems with non-looped configurations could experience degraded performance and serviceability. If a non-loop connection is detected, a problem is reported.
Each p5-570 system drawer has two integrated RIO-2 ports, which support a single RIO loop. If a second RIO loop is required, two additional RIO-2 ports can be configured by ordering the #1800 RIO-2 adapter.
When the #1800 RIO-2 adapter is installed in a system drawer, no adapter cards can be installed in PCI-X slot #6. The #1800 RIO-2 adapter is supported only in system drawers that have two processor cards.
Up to eight RIO loops are available, each supporting up to four I/O drawers and up to a maximum of twenty I/O drawers per system. A minimum of two RIO cables are required to attach the first I/O drawer on each RIO loop. A third drawer-to-drawer RIO cable is required to complete the loop when an additional I/O drawer is attached to the loop. RIO cables are available in various lengths to attach I/O drawers within a single rack or across multiple racks, if desired.

#3146 = 1.2 meters
#3147 = 3.5 meters
#3148 = 10 meters
#3156 = 1.75 meters
#3168 = 2.5 meters

Power control for the I/O drawers is provided via one loop per drawer. The number of power control (SPCN) cables required is equal to one plus the number of I/O drawers attached to the system drawer. A minimum of two power control cables (#6006 = 3 meters, #6029 = 30 meters) are required for attachment of the first I/O drawer. Each additional I/O drawer requires one additional power control cable to complete the loop attachment.

Integrated I/O ports

Each system has only two HMC ports, regardless of the number of system drawers. For systems configured with more than one system drawer, the HMC ports are in the same drawer as the Service Processor (#7881).
Although each system drawer is equipped with two integrated serial port external connectors, only two serial ports are activated in a multi-drawer configuration. Integrated serial ports are activated in the drawer that has the Service Processor (#7881) installed. Integrated serial ports in other system drawers are not functional.
Integrated serial ports are not supported when the HMC ports are connected to a Hardware Management Console. Either the HMC ports or the integrated serial ports can be used, but not both.
The integrated serial ports are supported only for modem and async terminal connections. Any other applications using serial ports require a separate serial port adapter to be installed in a PCI slot. The integrated serial ports do not support HACMP configurations.

Disks, Media, and Boot Devices

Boot is supported via SCSI adapters, or from a network via LAN adapters.
The minimum configuration requires at least one disk drive having a capacity of 36.4 GB or greater.
Each system drawer can support up to two media devices when the optional #7869 media backplane is ordered. Any combination of DVD-ROM and DVD-RAM drives can be installed, up to eight media devices in a four-drawer system.

PCI Slots and Adapters

Each p5-570 system drawer has six PCI-X slots. All slots operate at 3.3 volts. There are five full-length 64-bit slots and one short 64-bit slot.
The p5-570 PCI slot population rules are complex. The following PCI slot and adapter limitations are provided for general guidance. Extensive configuration rules and checking procedures are incorporated into the ECFGRS6000 configurator to help ensure valid system configurations. Configurations generated without utilizing the ECFGPWR configurator may create orders that cannot be manufactured, resulting in possible order rejection and delayed delivery.
System maximum limits for adapters and devices may not provide optimal system performance. These limits are given to assist with connectivity and functional assurance.
When the model 570 is attached to one or more I/O drawers, additional rules apply for some PCI adapters regarding the maximum supported adapter quantities for the combined system. For adapters not shown in the list below, the combined maximum quantity is determined by the maximum quantities for each attached I/O drawer. The adapters in the following list are limited to the combined maximum quantity shown.
(#2943) - 8-Port Asynchronous Adapter EIA-232/RS-422, PCI bus 42 (#2944) - 128-Port Asynchronous Controller, PCI bus 42 (#6204) - PCI Universal Differential Ultra SCSI Adapter 42 (#2849) - POWER GXT135P Graphics Accelerator w/Digital Support 8 (#4959) - IBM Token-Ring PCI Adapter 20 (#4960) - IBM e-business Cryptographic Accelerator 32

Hot-Plug Options

The following options are hot-plug capable:

System power supplies
Disk drives
Most PCI adapters
Service processors
Processor power regulators

Hot-plug procedures are contained in the eServer p5 model 570 Installation Guide.
Any PCI adapter supporting the system boot device or system console is not hot-plugged.
The following adapters are not hot-plug capable:

POWER GXT135P Graphics Accelerator with Digital Support (#2849)
2-Port Multiprotocol PCI Adapter (#2962)

Logical Partitioning (LPAR)

Dynamic LPAR allows up to one partition per processor.
Up to ten partitions per processor are supported when Advanced POWER Virtualization (#7942) is ordered. This function requires AIX 5L V5.3 or SUSE SLES 9 for POWER.
A Hardware Management Console is required for all LPAR configurations.
For Linux partitions, a DVD-ROM or DVD-RAM and a Media Enclosure and Backplane (#7869) are required.

Model conversion

Customers who own an IBM pSeries 650 (7038-6M2) may convert their system to an IBM eServer p5 570 system. System hardware for the new model will consist of one or more drawers to replace the old system chassis. Supported features from the old model will be transferred to the new system. The same configuration rules apply to model conversions and to new system orders.
Model conversions allow any valid number of processors in the new model, regardless of the number of processors in the old model. The valid processor quantities are 2, 4, 8, 12, and 16.
Any supported memory and disk drive features that are transferred from the old system can be counted toward the requirements for processor activations at no additional charge, using the same Value Pak rules that apply to new system orders.

Hardware Requirements

The p5 model 570 must be installed in a new or existing 7014-T00 or T42 rack with power distribution features 9176, 9177, 9178, or 9188, or equivalent rack. This provides:

Proper dimensions
Mounting surfaces
Power distribution
Ventilation
Stability
Other functional requirements

The design of the p5 model 570 is optimized for use in an IBM 7014-T00 or T42 rack. Both the front cover and the processor flex cables occupy space on the front left side of an IBM 7014 rack that may not be available in typical non-IBM racks.
The SMP cables were specifically designed to support seamless (4-way node) upgradability and future concurrent maintenance features of these POWER5 systems. The use of non-IBM racks may limit a customer's ability to exploit these ease-of-use, upgradability and serviceability enhancements in the future.

Value Paks
Value Paks provide a convenient way to order any of several configurations designed to meet typical customer requirements. Special reduced pricing is available when a system order satisfies specific configuration requirements for memory, disk drives, and processors. When a Value Pak is ordered, the configurator offers a choice of starting points that can be added onto.
Customers can configure systems with 2 to 16 processors and 2 to 16 processor activations. With the purchase of a Value Pak, for each paid processor activation or entitlement, the customer is entitled to one processor activation or entitlement at no additional charge, if the following requirements are met:

The system must have at least two disk drives of at least 73.4 GB each.
There must be at least 2 GB of memory installed for each activated processor.

Value Pak pricing is also available after the system has been installed, only for additional processors that are ordered and activated on the same MES order. The upgraded p5-570 configuration must satisfy the Value Pak requirements for disk drives, memory, and processors. Activations of previously installed processors do not qualify for Value Pak pricing.

Feature Descriptions

The following is a list of all feature codes in numeric order.
Attributes, as defined in the following feature descriptions, state the interaction of requirements among features.
Minimums and maximums are the absolute limits for a single feature without regard to interaction with other features. The maximum valid quantity for MES orders may be different than for initial orders. The maximums listed below refer to the largest quantity of these two possibilities.
The order type defines if a feature is orderable only on initial orders, only on MES orders, on both initial and MES orders, or if a feature is supported on a model due to a model conversion. Supported features cannot be ordered on the converted model, only left on or removed from the converted model.

(#2498) PCI 4-Channel Ultra3 SCSI RAID Adapter

The RS/6000 PCI 4-Channel Ultra3 SCSI RAID Adapter (#2498) is a non-bootable high performance Ultra3 SCSI RAID Adapter providing RAID 0, 1, 1E, 5, or 5E capability and can address up to sixty 16-bit SCSI physical disk drives on four independent SCSI buses.
To increase the data writing performance, a 128 MByte fast-write cache is provided as a resident part of this adapter. The 128 MByte fast-write cache is a resident feature of the PCI 4-Channel Ultra3 SCSI RAID Adapter that utilizes non-volatile RAM. During the unlikely event of an PCI 4-Channel Ultra3 SCSI RAID Adapter failure, a replacement PCI 4-Channel Ultra3 SCSI RAID Adapter can be installed and the fast-write cache can be removed from the failing adapter and installed in the new adapter to help ensure data integrity. The 128 MB 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 PCI 4-Channel Ultra3 SCSI RAID Adapter has four independent Ultra3 SCSI buses. There are two internal ports and four external ports. The two internal ports are shared with two of the external ports. Two of the four busses can drive either an internal port or an external port. The other two busses only drive external ports. The internal ports can be used to provide an internal RAID solution on supporting RS/6000 systems. Systems with one or two internal 6-pack disks can attach to a PCI 4-Channel Ultra3 SCSI RAID Adapter. The four external ports 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. The four external ports also provide connectivity 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.
Limitations:

The four external ports do not support the connection to the IBM 7131-105 external Fast/Wide SCSI disk enclosure.
Even though the PCI 4-Channel Ultra3 SCSI RAID Adapter has ports that run at Ultra3 SCSI speeds (up to 160 MBytes/s) and Ultra2 SCSI speeds (up to 80MBytes/s), the internally attached disk drives will run at a maximum SCSI bus data rate specified by that supporting system backplane.

In order for full support and to take full advantage of the Ultra3 (up to 160 MBytes/s) speed of this adapter, the proper AIX level also needs to be considered. AIX 4.3.3 with appropriate APAR updates or later AIX versions support the full range of SCSI bus data rates (including Ultra3 SCSI up to 160 MByte/s). Check the AIX level your system has or is able to support.

Attributes provided: Attachment of internal and external SCSI devices
Attributes required: One PCI bus slot

(#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.

(#4961) IBM Universal 4-Port 10/100 Ethernet Adapter

IBM Universal 4-Port 10/100 Ethernet Adapter is a single slot, long, 64-bit, 33 MHz PCI adapter supporting 4 industry standard Ethernet 10 Base-T or 100 Base-T interfaces either half or full duplex. Each port is provided with it's own RJ-45 connector for attachment to standard CAT-3/5 Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable. 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.

(#5703) PCI-X Dual Channel Ultra320 SCSI RAID Adapter

The PCI-X Dual Channel Ultra320 SCSI RAID Adapter (#5703) 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 non-volitile fast-write cache is provided as a resident part of this adapter. The 40 MByte fast-write cache can provide a 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 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 integrity. 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.

(#5709) Dual Channel SCSI RAID Enablement Card

(No Longer Available as of May 12, 2005)
The Dual Channel SCSI RAID Enablement Card (#5709) is a bootable high performance SCSI RAID Enablement feature providing RAID 0,5, or 10 capability to select pSeries systems with the appropriate supporting integrated SCSI adapter and internal multiple disk drives or packs of drives.
To increase the data writing performance, a 16 MByte non-volitile fast-write cache is provided as a resident part of this feature. The 16 MByte fast-write cache can provide an 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.
When an array configuration is selected with the RAID Manager, the disk drives being designated as part of the array are required to be formatted to 522 byte sectors. 522 byte sectors provide additional CRC error checking for improved data integrity. 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:

(#5712) PCI-X Dual Channel Ultra320 SCSI Adapter

(No Longer Available as of March 31, 2006)
The PCI-X Dual Channel Ultra320 SCSI Adapter (#5712) 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 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 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.
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 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 Adapter (#5712) 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:

(#6203) PCI Dual Channel Ultra3 SCSI Adapter

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.
The PCI Dual Channel Ultra3 SCSI Adapter (#6203) also is a native boot adapter with AIX 4.3.3 or AIX 5.1 (with appropriate updates) in the supported pSeries or RS/6000 systems.

(#6228) 2 Gigabit Fibre Channel Adapter for 64-bit PCI Bus

The 2 Gigabit Fibre Channel Adapter for 64-bit PCI Bus is a 64-bit address/data, short form factor PCI adapter with LC type external fiber connectors 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 Adapter for 64-bit PCI Bus will auto-negotiate for the highest data rate (either 1Gps or 2Gps) of which the device or switch is capable. Distances of up to 500 meters running at 1Gbps data rate and up to 300 meters running at 2Gbps 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 1Gps or 2Gps data rates.
The 2 Gigabit Fibre Channel Adapter for 64-bit PCI Bus 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 connector(s), use of an LC-SC Fibre Channel Conversion Cable (#2456) is required.

(#6230) Advanced SerialRAID Plus Adapter

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

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 configuration, 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
Attributes required: Advanced SerialRAID Adapter (#6225) or Advanced SerialRAID Plus Adapter (#6230). A 32 MByte Fast-Write Cache Option Card (#6235) is also recommended.

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

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 insuring 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.

(#8136) Rack Mountable Remote Asynchronous Node 16-Port EIA-232

(No Longer Available as of March 31, 2006)
The Rack Mountable Remote Asynchronous Node 16-Port EIA-232 (RAN) is a modified version of the existing 16-port Remote Async Node (feature #8130 or 8134) in an industry-standard 19-inch rack mount chassis to allow simpler installation and ease-of-use. Like the existing RAN, it can also be configured as a desktop device.
As an additional benefit, the metal chassis meets FCC Class B/CISPR B when used with similarly rated RS/6000 host to meet the needs of customers with these requirements.
The RANs provide 16 ports of EIA-232 capability with full modem controls on each port and are connected to the 128-port Async Controller (Micro Channel or ISA versions) residing in the host. RANs are connected in daisy-chain fashion up to 8 RANs per 128-port Async Controller (either version).
The rack-mountable RAN offers these enhanced features:

Industry-standard 19-inch rack mountable chassis (can be configured for stacking on a desktop or mounted in a 19-inch rack).
Meets FCC Class B/CISPR B when used with similarly rated RS/6000 host.
All RJ-45 connectors are now on the front panel, greatly enhancing cable management.
The DB-15 synchronous connectors (cabling from host to RAN and between RANs) and the power cord and switch are located on the rear panel.
Power supply is self contained within the unit.

The rack-mountable RAN offers these same features as the existing RAN product:

Identical function and support as existing 16-port Remote Async Node (RAN), feature #8130 or 8134.
Operation of 16 to 128 ports by supporting up to 8 RANs (4 per synchronous line) with either a Micro Channel or ISA host adapter.
Ability to monitor individual port operation, synchronous line station, and other diagnostics from front panel.
Built-in diagnostics can test ports independent of RS/6000 host.
Full modem control supports the following interface signals: TxD, RxD, RTS, CTS, DSR, DCD, DTR, RI.
The same RJ-45 to DB-25 Converter Cable (feature #8133 -- quantity four per order) currently used on the existing RANs can be used to attach devices having a DB-25 connector to the Remote Async Nodes.
Individual ports support a maximum EIA-232 distance of 62 meters (200 feet).
Use of the same cabling from host to RAN and RAN to RAN: feature #8131 (4.5 meter), feature #8132 (23 cm) or customer-supplied cables.
Location of RAN up to 330 meters from the host using standard shielded 8-wire twisted pair cabling.
Remote operation via synchronous modems or CSU/DSU extends the distance and allows location of RANs at geographically distant location from the host.
Attributes provided: 16 RJ-45 EIA-232 ports AND 1 RAN-to-RAN connection
