pSeries 7311 Model D20 Overview
The Model D20 is a 19-inch, rack-mountable I/O subsystem that is attached to a
processor subsystem to extend the system’s capacity for I/O adapters and disk drives.
The I/O subsystem includes redundant concurrently maintainable power and cooling.
Seven PCI slots are available for PCI adapters. Because the PCI slots support
hot-pluggable adapters, the I/O subsystem can have adapters installed without turning
off power. The Model D20 is 4 EIA units high and and compatible with 19-inch EIA rack
enclosures.
