Fujitsu M600R, M200R, M400R, M400A manual Key Features, High-performance Multi-Processor Platform

CHAPTER 1 Product Outline

1.1 Key Features

The GP7000F is SMP (Symmetric Multi-Processor) servers with 64-bit SPARC64 GP processors. Each model in the group has high-performance 64-bit processors, high-speed I/O interfaces and enhanced reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS) features. The crossbar configuration is used as the system architecture of the GP7000F, and the performance of the multi-processor configuration has been improved almost linear scalability.

The GP7000F, which has excellent scalability and reliability, is an ideal server for not only group or department servers but also for mission-critical enterprise servers.

High-performance SPARC64 GP Processor

The SPARC64 GP is a high performance processor which has an out-of-order execution engine.

The SPARC64 GP supports large size external cache of 2MB/4MB/8MB per processor as well as 64KB(instruction)+64KB(Data) on-chip cache.

Error Correcting Code (ECC) is used for both on-chip and external cache.

High-performance Multi-Processor Platform

Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP) architecture

The memory system has a high bandwidth, up to 8-way interleaving, and which enables fast access.

A packet-based bus protocol, to enable a throughput of 1.3 to 1.6 GB/s per processor, is

￿implemented.

A crossbar configuration, which is based on a packet bus, enables high-level parallel operations of processors and memory modules, I/O and memory modules, and data transfer among processors. And, the system delivers scalable performance by installing additional processors and I/Os.

–The crossbar switch enables parallel operations of several processors and I/Os.

–The performance of the single bus is improved by expanding the bus width and high frequency operation.

–The efficiency of bus usage is drastically improved by bus control in the packet exchange system.

High-performance EDO DRAM (Extended Data Out DRAM) is used on the platform for the

￿memory expansion.(M200, M600)

High-performance SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM) is used on the platform for the memory expansion.(M200R, M400A, M400R, M600R)
