Module Connections

Chassis A can have up to eight server blades mounted, with two PCI-X slots per server blade. Storage modules cannot be mounted on these chassis.

Chassis B can have three types of I/O modules mounted. If a PCI-X I/O Module is installed, the chassis can have up to four server blades with four PCI-X slots connected to each server blade, and up to four storage modules or server blades with no PCI-X connection. If a PCIe I/O Module is installed, the chassis can have up to eight server blades, with up to two PCIe slots per server blade. If a Embedded Fibre Channel Switch Module is installed, the chassis can have up to eight server blades, with up to two Fibre Channel ports and two gigabit Ethernet ports connected per server blade.

Redundant Power Modules

The Power Module includes a 200-240 VAC input, and supplies the sub- and main-power to the system. Up to four Power Modules are installable in a chassis. They are installed redundantly, and support hot swapping. The service processor (SVP) checks the power capacity when it starts up.

If SVD detects redundant power capacity, it boots the system in the normal way. If SVP cannot detect
