Introduction
The System x X6 servers are the sixth generation of servers built upon the System x
Enterprise X-Architecture. Enterprise X-Architecture is the culmination of bringing
generations of System x technology and innovation derived from our experience in
high-end enterprise servers.
The System x X6 generation server pack numerous fault-tolerant and high-availability
features into a high-density, rack-optimized, chassis-like package where all
serviceable components are front and rear accessible, significantly reducing the
space needed to support massive network computing operations and simplify
servicing.
The X6 product portfolio is based on the Intel Xeon processor E7-8800/4800 v2
product families which comprises of a 4U, 4 socket x3850 X6 server that is scalable
to an 8U, 8 socket x3950 X6 server. The X6 systems offer the new “bookshelf”
design concept that is based on a fix chassis mounted in a standard rack cabinet. The
modular components that can be installed in the chassis called “Books”, comprises of
a Compute Book, Storage Book, and I/O Book.
The x3850 X6 server contains five fan zones with space for up to two fans per zone
totaling ten hot swap fans with N+1 fan redundancy. Up to four redundant hot-swap
900W AC, 1400W AC, or 750W DC power supplies can be installed supporting N+N,
N+1, and N configurations.
The x3950 X6 server contains ten fan zones with space for up to two fans per zone
totaling twenty hot swap fans with N+1 fan redundancy. Up to eight redundant hot-
swap 900W AC, 1400W AC, or 750W DC power supplies can be installed supporting
N+N, N+1, and N configurations.
The System x x3850 X6 enclosure covered in this guide is currently marketed
worldwide. The intent of this guide is to provide power information for installation
planning of System x X6 System. This guide contains examples of the System x x3850
X6 enclosure connected to various PDUs and circuits.
About This Guide
When using this guide keep in mind that power connections to the System x X6
system(s) must be wired to comply with local and/or national electrical codes. Consult
your local AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction) to ensure compliance.
Each example covered in this guide gives System x PDU option information.
