1.5.5 Additional options for rack
The intention of this section is to highlight some solutions available to provide a single point of
management for environments composed of multiple OpenPower 720 servers or other IBM
Sserver
OpenPower, p5, pSeries, and RS/6000 systems.
IBM 7212 Model 102 IBM TotalStorage Storage device enclosure
The IBM 7212 Model 102 is designed to provide efficient and convenient storage expansion
capabilities for select IBM
Sserver
p5, pSeries, and RS/6000 servers. The IBM 7212 Model
102 is a 1U rack-mountable option to be installed in a standard 19-inch rack using an optional
rack-mount hardware feature kit. The 7212 Model 102 has two bays that can accommodate
any of the following storage drive features:
Digital Data Storage (DDS) Gen 5 DAT72 Tape Drive provides physical storage capacity of
36 GB (72 GB with 2:1 compression) per data cartridge
VXA-2 Tape Drive provides a media capacity of up to 80 GB (160 GB with 2:1
compression) physical data storage capacity per cartridge
Digital Data Storage (DDS-4) tape drive with 20 GB native data capacity per tape cartridge
and a native physical data transfer rate of up to 3 MB/sec that uses a 2:1 compression so
that a single tape cartridge can store up to 40 GB of data
DVD-ROM drive is a 5 1/4-inch, half-high device. It can read 640 MB CD-ROM and 4.7 GB
DVD-RAM media. It can be used for Alternate IPL
2
(IBM-distributed CD-ROM media only)
and program distribution
DVD-RAM drive with up to 2.7 MB/sec throughput. Using 3:1 compression, a single disk
can store up to 28 GB of data. Supported DVD disk native capacities on a single
DVD-RAM disk are as follows: up to 2.6 GB, 4.7 GB, 5.2 GB, and 9.4 GB
Flat panel display options
The IBM 7316-TF3 Flat Panel Console Kit can be installed in the system rack. This 1U
console uses a 15-inch thin film transistor (TFT) LCD with a viewable area of
304.1 mm x 228.1 mm and a 1024 x 768 pels
3
resolution. The 7316-TF3 Flat Panel Console
Kit has the following attributes:
Flat panel color monitor.
Rack tray for keyboard, monitor, and optional VGA switch with mounting brackets.
IBM Travel Keyboard® mounts in the rack keyboard tray (Integrated Trackpoint® and
UltraNav®).
IBM PS/2 Travel Keyboards are supported on the 7316-TF3 for use in configurations where
only PS/2 keyboard ports are available.
The IBM 7316-TF3 Flat Panel Console Kit provides an option for the IBM USB Travel
Keyboards with
UltraNav.
The USB keyboard allow the 7316-TF3 to be connected to systems
that do not have PS/2
keyboard ports. The IBM USB Travel Keyboard may be direct attached
to an available integrated USB port or a supported USB adapter (2738), on IBM
Eserver
OpenPower servers, or IBM 7310-CR3 and 7315-CR3 Hardware Management Consoles.
The Netbay® LCM (Keyboard/Video/Mouse) Switch (FC 4202) allows users single-point
access and control of up to 64 servers from a single console. The Netbay LCM Switch has a
maximum video resolution of 1600 x 1280 and mounts in a 1U drawer behind the 7316-TF3
monitor. A minimum of one LCM cable (FC 4268) or USB cable (FC 4269) is required with a
