Protocol node
The ESS access methods are like the ones for accessing an IBM Spectrum Scale cluster. Depending on
the required configuration, the ESS can be accessed as an IBM Spectrum Scale client, with a specific
connector, or through dedicated protocol node servers. The specifications of the protocol node are as
follows:
• 2x DD2.3 20 Small Cores, 190W/225W, 2.5GHz/2.9GHz
• Default and min 192 GB, no NVDIMMs
• Option for 1x DD3.2 proc with min 128 GB min memory
• 2x SFF HDD capacity 1.8 TB
