Chapter 2. Architecture and technical overview

The following is an example of the processor card information:
Processor Card:
Part Number.................09P3481
EC Level....................H10826
Serial Number...............0000000026
FRU Number..................09P3666
Manufacture ID..............1980
Version.....................RS6K
Product Specific.(ZC).......PS=00165A0BC0,LB=000EE6B280,
SB=00059682F0,NP=01,L2=04096,
PF=754,SV=3,VR=1,ER=00
Physical Location: P1-C1
For example, PS shows the processor speed in hexadecimal as follows:
a. (
0x0013D92D40
= 333000000 Hz = 333 MHz).
b. (
0x00165A0BC0
= 375000000 Hz = 375 MHz).
c. (
0x001AD27480
= 450000000 Hz = 450 MHz).
4. Use the
lscfg -vp | more
command. Page down to the
Processor Card
entry and search
for the
PF
entry under the
Product Specification (ZC)
section. If you see
PF=754,
then
you have a 375 MHz card (L2 = 4 MB); if you see
PF=758,
then you have a 450 MHz card
(L2 = 8 MB).
2.1.6 Processor part numbers
Due to manufacturing improvements, the part number of the processor cards might change.
You can determine the part number of the current installed processor cards using the
following method:
1. Enter the AIX command:
lscfg -vp | more
2. Page down to the
Processor Card
entry and search for the
Product Specification (ZC)
entry.
3. Determine the appropriate part number.
2.2 Memory
The memory subsystem of the Models 6C1 and 6E1 support a 128 bit data path to memory
along with an 8-bit ECC code that provides single bit correction, double bit error detection,
and 4-bit packet error detection. A minimum of 512 MB of memory is allowed, and can be
expanded to a maximum of 8 GB SDRAM.
Figure 2-2 Memory card
Dual inline memory modules (DIMMs) must be ordered and installed in matched (size and
speed) pairs on the memory card. They are available in two sizes: 256 MB, and 512 MB. The
memory card can accommodate eight pairs of DIMM sockets.
