EC Level

H10826

Serial Number

0000000026

FRU Number

09P3666

Manufacture ID

Version

RS6K

Product Specific.(ZC)

PS=00165A0BC0,LB=000EE6B280,

 

SB=00059682F0,NP=01,L2=04096,

 

PF=754,SV=3,VR=1,ER=00

Physical Location: P1-C1

 

For example, PS shows the processor speed in hex-number digit as follows:

a.(0x00165A0BC0 = 375000000 Hz = 375 MHz).

b.(0x001AD27480 = 450000000 Hz = 450 MHz).

4.Use the lscfg -vp more command. Page down to the Processor Card entry and search for the PF entry under the Product Specification (ZC) section. If you see PF=754, then you have a 375 MHz card (L2 = 4 MB); if you see PF=758, then you have a 450 MHz card (L2 = 8 MB).

2.1.6Processor part numbers

Due to manufacturing improvements, the part number of the processor cards might change. You can determine the part number of the current installed processor cards using the following method:

1.Enter the AIX command: lscfg -vp more

2.Page down to the Processor Card entry and search for the Product Specification (ZC) entry.

3.Determine the appropriate part number.

2.2Memory

The memory subsystem of the Models 6C1 and 6E1 support a 128 bit data path to memory along with an 8-bit ECC code that provides single bit correction, double bit error detection, and 4-bit packet error detection. A minimum of 512 MB of memory is required, and can be expanded to a maximum of 8 GB SDRAM.

Figure 2-2 Memory card

Dual inline memory modules (DIMMs) must be ordered and installed in matched (size and speed) pairs on the memory card. They are available in two sizes: 256 MB and 512 MB. The memory card can accommodate eight pairs of DIMM sockets.

The supported method to install DIMMs is to start at the bottom of each card (card slot J1 and J2) and then move up.

The system design gives you the flexibility to mix 256 MB and 512 MB SDRAM DIMM features on the Memory Expansion Kit without affecting performance.
