POWER7 Blade Console Options

Serial over LAN (SoL)

– Serial Data that flows to/from the Blade’s COM port through network infrastructure of the BladeCenter chassis

– Can establish 20 separate telnet sessions to one AMM

• One SOL Session active on all 14 blades• 6 additional sessions for BladeCenter chassis

Management – Ethernet Switch Modules or Intelligent Copper Passthru

Module is required in Bay 1 for SoL Support

– Failure of the external switch should cause the SOL session to be routed to the second switch

Shared Processor Pools

Shared Dedicated Capacity

Live Partition Mobility

Active Memory Sharing

PowerVM enables unrivaled consolidation of multiple AIX, IBM i and Linux workloads, allowing clients to:

– Reduce infrastructure costs: less datacenter and rack space, less cabling

– Reduce utility costs: less energy and cooling

– Reduce operational costs: faster provisioning, simpler scaling and easier recoverability

PowerVM delivers these benefits through innovative technology that optimizes physical resources:

– Micro-partitioning enables most efficient use of available cores, with 1/100th of a core granularity

– Multiple shared processor pools

– Dynamic movement of virtualized processor and I/O resources (in VIOS) based on workload activity

Next innovation: Extend resource optimization to include memory with Active Memory Sharing



BladeCenter ChassisSupported with the Power7 Blades

IBM BladeCenter S: Distributed, small office,

easy to configureIBM BladeCenter HT: Ruggedized, high

performance

IBM BladeCenter E: Best energy efficiency,

best density
