Chapter 3.
IBM NeXtScale n1200
Enclosure
The foundation on which IBM NeXtScale System is built is the IBM NeXtScale
n1200 Enclosure.
Designed to provide shared, high-efficiency power and cooling for up to 12
compute nodes, this chassis scales with your business needs. Adding compute,
storage, or acceleration capability is as simple as adding nodes to the chassis.
There is no built-in networking or switching capabilities, which requires no
chassis-level management beyond power and cooling.
This chapter includes the following topics:
3.1, “Overview” on page 24
3.2, “Standard chassis models” on page 29
3.3, “Supported compute nodes” on page 29
