Warning:
To prevent personal injury or damage to your system, only trained SGI
system support engineers (SSEs) can service or configure internal components of the
MPX module that are not specifically listed as serviceable and configurable by
customers.
External Configurations
The MPX module can be configured together with the following items to expand the
function of your server system:
•
Every system must include a base compute module. The base compute module can
have 2 or 4 processors, up to 8 GB of local memory, an optional DVD-ROM, one or
two SCSI disk drives, and two PCI/PCI-X and one PCI slots. The fourth slot
includes an IO9 card that adds various connectors to your system, including a serial
daughtercard.
•
The system expansion compute module, which is interconnected to the base
compute module via a NUMAlink 3 cable, adds processors, memory, and four
PCI/PCI-X card slots. It may or may not include an IO9 card, but it does not have a
serial daughtercard.
•
The 4U PCI expansion module adds PCI slots, but no processors, no memory, and
no IO9 card. There are two versions of the PCI expansion module: one module has
12 PCI slots that support 3.3-V or universal PCI cards and the other module has 6
PCI slots that support 5-V or universal PCI card and 6 slots that support 3.3-V or
universal PCI cards. For more information about this module, see the P
CI Expansion
Module User’s Guide (5.0-V Support and/or 3.3-V Support)
(007-4499-00

).
•
The TP900 storage module provides additional storage to the system. See
SGI Total
Performance 900 Storage System User’s Guide
(007-4428-00
x
), for information about
this module. The Origin 350 server system supports other storage modules. For
information, see “Storage Expansion” on page 89.
•
The NUMAlink module connects two or more modules. See Chapter 5, “NUMAlink
Module,” for information about this module.
The Origin 350 server system can be configured with an MPX module in many different
ways to satisfy your computing needs. This section shows two sample configurations.
