Figure 1-4 shows the chassis with IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node occupying 4 x
compute bays, which is partially inserted into the chassis for identification.
Figure 1-4 Front view of IBM Enterprise Flex System Chassis with an IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node
The chassis has the following features on the front:
򐂰 The front information panel, located on the lower left of the chassis
򐂰
Bays 1 to 14 supporting Nodes, storage enclosures and FSM
򐂰 Lower airflow inlet apertures that provides air cooling for switches, IBM Flex System
Chassis Management Module and power supplies
򐂰
Upper airflow inlet apertures that provide cooling for power supplies
For proper cooling, each bay in the front or rear of the chassis must contain either a device or
a filler.
The Enterprise Chassis provides several LEDs on the front information panel that can be
used to obtain the status of the chassis. The Identify, Check log and the Fault LED also
appear on the rear of the chassis for ease of use.
The major components of Enterprise Chassis are as follows:
򐂰 Fourteen 1-bay compute node bays (can also support seven 2-bay or three 4-bay compute
nodes with shelves removed).
򐂰
Six 2500-watt power modules that provide N+N or N+1 redundant power.
