Overview
The
pSeries
690
server
is
a
multiprocessor,
multibus
system
composed
of
the
following
subsystems:
v
7040
Model
61R,
a
24-inch
wide
and
42-EIA-high
rack
unit
that
also
contains
the
following:
–
An
8-EIA
unit
power
subsystem,
consisting
of
two
redundant
bulk
power
assemblies
that
distribute
bulk
power
at
350
V
to
each
of
the
subsystems.
–
An
optional
2
EIA-unit
integrated
battery
feature
(IBF),
which
is
available
in
either
a
redundant
or
non-redundant
configuration.
v
7040
Model
681
Processor
Subsystem,
a
17
EIA-unit
processor
subsystem,
which
contains
the
processors,
L3
cache,
memory,
and
service
processor
and
a
1
EIA-unit
media
subsystem
containing
a
diskette
drive,
a
CD-ROM,
and
an
operator
panel,
with
space
for
up
to
three
additional
optional
media
devices.
There
is
an
option
to
expand
the
number
of
RIO
(in
this
case
RIO-2)
ports
to
28.
This
allows
up
to
eight
RIO-2
I/O
subsystems,
if
cabled
in
RIO
or
some
combination
of
RIO
and
RIO-2,
each
with
2
GB-per-second
transfers
on
each
planar.
Processor
speeds
up
to
1.5
GHz
and
1.7
GHz
are
also
available.
Additional
memory
cards
that
operate
at
the
higher
567
MHz
bus
speed
are
available.
v
7040
Model
61D
I/O
Subsystem,
4
EIA-units,
which
can
have
up
to
20
PCI
adapters
and
up
to
16
DASD
disk
drives.
This
subsystem
may
also
be
purchased
to
allow
10
or
20
PCI-X
adapters,
for
use
with
the
RIO-2
cabling
option.
Additionally,
there
is
an
option
that
allows
1
GB
RIO-2
on
each
remote
I/O
port.
RIO-2
allows
up
to
2
GB
I/O
transfers
when
cabled
as
a
single
planar
loop
(four
CEC
RIO-2
ports
per
I/O
subsystem).
v
A
Hardware
Management
Console
(HMC),
which
provides
a
standard
user
interface
for
configuring
and
operating
partitioned
systems.
One
HMC
can
support
multiple
partitions
on
multiple
systems.
