8. i Edition Express for BladeCenter S
8.1. Overview
The i Edition Express for BladeCenter S is a packaged solution that includes a BladeCenter S
chassis with SAS disk drives, a JS12 Power blade server, IBM PowerVM and IBM i for 10 users.
It is an integrated offering priced similarly to a Power 520 Express i Edition that makes it easier
for clients to consolidate their existing IBM i and Windows workloads in a BladeCenter
environment. For the minimum i Edition Express for BladeCenter S hardware configuration and
further details, consult http://www.ibm.com/systems/power/hardware/blades/iedition.html. Note
that service vouchers are not available for the JS12 when it is part of an i Edition Express order.
Service vouchers are otherwise available for IBM i on all Power blades. See the following
Website for details and voucher registration:
http://www.ibm.com/systems/power/hardware/vouchers/index.html.
Every i Edition Express for BladeCenter S will automatically get VIOS and IBM i preloaded on the
JS12. See the next section in this document for an overview of the IBM i preinstall on
BladeCenter S and the post-ship configuration actions that must be performed by the
implementing party.
