IBM pSeries p650 Server | IBM pSeries Servers | IBM Hardware

Features:

POWER4+ microprocessors with L3 cache: *Provide improved system performance and higher reliability in a smaller, more efficient dual-processor chip
*Enable capacity to grow to eight processors
Copper and SOI technology: *Improve processor performance and reliability while using less power and producing less heat to help conserve energy and help lower operational costs
High memory and I/O bandwidth: *Remove performance bottlenecks that can occur when fast processors must wait for data to be moved through the system
Up to 64GB Chipkill™ ECC, bit-steering memory: *Allows exploitation of 64-bit addressing for large database and key critical business applications
*Provides growth options with much greater throughput
*Significantly lowers number of memory failures that cause system outages, thus increasing system availability
*Provides memory spares that are activated when multiple memory errors are encountered
Capacity Upgrade on Demand: *Offers flexibility to cost effectively and easily add permanent processing and memory capacity to help meet workload growth
On/Off Capacity on Demand: *Provides temporary processor use to meet unexpected workload demands
Processor card packaging: *Protects processor and memory components against accidental disconnection and/or contamination for improved reliability
*Allows for easier servicing
Logical Partitioning (LPAR): *Permits up to 8 UNIX or Linux operating system servers to be consolidated on a single server, easing maintenance and administration
*Offers greater flexibility in using available capacity and dynamically matching resources to changing business needs (requires AIX 5L v5.2)
Up to 63 hot-plug or 55 hot-plug/blind-swap PCI/PCI-X adapter slots: *Provide growth options for significantly increased capacity at a low cost
*Support many commonly used adapters for increased availability at a lower cost
*Allow adapters to be added or removed without interrupting the system
Hot-swappable disk and media bays: *Provide greater system availability and smooth growth by allowing swapping or adding of disk drives and media devices without powering down the system
Built-in service processor: *Continuously monitors system operations and takes preventive or corrective actions for quick problem resolution and high system availability
*Allows diagnostics and maintenance to be performed remotely
Redundant hot-plug power and cooling subsystems: *Enhance system availability since cooling fans and power supplies can be changed without interrupting operations
*Provide backup power and cooling if primary unit fails
Dynamic processor and PCI bus slot deallocation: *Designed to automatically deallocate resources when impending failure is detected, so applications continue to run uninterrupted
IBM eServer Cluster 1600: *Provides centralized management of multiple inter-connected systems
*Provides ability to handle unexpected workload peaks by sharing resources
*Allows for more granular growth so user demands can be readily satisfied
