Chapter 3. SP-attached servers and Clustered Enterprise Servers
79
Up to 16 of the supported M/T 7017 Models and up to 32 of the supported M/T
7026 Models, up to 32 mixed servers in total, can be integrated on a CES system
as Clustered Enterprise Servers.
Like an SP node, the SP-attached server and the Clustered Enterprise Server
can perform most SP processing and administration functions. However, unlike
an SP node, the SP-attached server and the Clustered Enterprise Server are
housed in their own frame. Thus, the SP-attached server and the Clustered
Enterprise Server have both node-like and frame-like characteristics.
These servers are compatible with SP Switch (F/C 4011). They need to be
configured with the SP System Attachment Adapter (F/C 8396).
3.2 SP-attached servers / CES - M/T 7017 supported
models
This section describes the M/T 7017 Models which are supported as
SP-attached servers and Clustered Enterprise Servers.

pSeries 680 Model S85 (7017-S85)
The 7017-S85 server is the latest member of the popular S-family of 64-bit
enterprise servers from IBM. The 7017-S85 server blends copper
silicon-on-insulator technology and larger memory capacity with a proven system
architecture to give you reliability you can count on. Scalability is enhanced by
increasing the amount of memory to 96 GB by leveraging the performance
enhancements of AIX Version 4.3.3 and the options of server clustering or SP
attachment within your enterprise. With the 7017-S85 server, you can manage
the evolution of your business into 64-bit computing while still supporting your
existing 32-bit applications. In addition, the I/O subsystem supports 32-bit and
64-bit standard PCI adapters. Combined with an outstanding array of industry
software and services, the 7017-S85 server delivers the power, capacity,
reliability, and expandability to help move you into the mission-critical
commercial computing.
The 7017-S85 server is further enhanced with the availability of Capacity
Upgrade on Demand (CUoD) that allows you to have inactive processors
installed in your system and can be made active quickly and easily as your
business needs require. When more processing capacity is required, you simply
issue an AIX command to increase the number of active processors in
increments of two, four, or six. The processors become active at the next system
re-boot. The 7017-S85 server periodically checks the number of active
