Chapter 7. iSeries Model 550
The Eserver i5 Model 550 is a midsized
IBM POWER5 technology-based server. It
has the capability to simultaneously run
multiple operating environments and
dynamically distribute processing
resources. This server is designed for small
to mid-sized businesses. These businesses
need power and capacity to run traditional
core business applications and to support
IBM i5/OS applications together with Linux,
Windows, AIX applications, or all three.
The Model 550 is offered as a deskside
tower and a rack mounted configuration. It
provides an integrated set of hardware
capabilities including two integrated 1 Gbps Ethernet ports and an integrated
Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) controller. An optional redundant
power supply is available. Hot-plugging is supported for PCI-X card slots, disk
slots, and redundant fans. In addition, Eserver i5 servers can hot-plug into
input/output (I/O) towers or drawers, or they can be xSeries attached by
Integrated xSeries Adapters. Hot-plugging of removable media devices is not
supported.
