AlphaServer 8400

Step 1a—5/300 System Building Blocks

System Building Blocks are an alternative to standard Base Servers, or Expanded Base Servers. They provide flexibility in configuring the AlphaServer 8400 with a choice of memory and I/O options.

System Building Block Requirements:

Minimum of one Memory module Minimum of one I/O module CD-ROM Drive

Systems require DIGITAL UNIX V3.2B or later, and OpenVMS V6.2 or later. Console terminal required unless available on site.

System consists of 9 slot backplane—three slots used by CPU, memory, and system I/O modules. - Six slots available for additional CPU, memory, or system I/O module(s).

If KFTHA-AA I/O module is selected the following PCI or XMI options must be ordered to provide the interface to CD-ROM drive.

Required for PCI systems

DWLPB-AA

PCI plug-in unit. See Step 5 for details.

KZPAA-AA

PCI single-ended SCSI controller for CD-ROM connection only; KZPAA is restricted as CD-ROM

 

connection only, no other disk or tape connections are supported—maximum one per system.

BN21H-02

SCSI cable

Required for XMI systems

DWLMA-AA

XMI plug-in unit. See Step 6 for details.

KZMSA-AB

XMI single-ended SCSI controller

BN21H-02

SCSI cable

CD-ROM, 600 MB 5.25” in cabinet drive ( RRDCD-CA) is required and must be ordered separately.

If Factory Installed Software is required, BA660-AB, appropriate disk drive, and controller must be ordered separately. Redundant power supply (N+1) can be added if required.
