Chapter 3. IBM NeXtScale n1200 Enclosure 29
FPC
The FPC enables the Integrated Management Module to monitor the fans and
control fan speed. If the FPC fails, the enclosure fans ramp up to maximum,
but all systems continue to operate by using the existing power management
policy.
3.2 Standard chassis models
The standard chassis model is listed in Table 3-1. The chassis is also available
via the configure-to-order (CTO) processor.
Table 3-1 Standard enclosure models
The IBM NeXtScale n1200 Enclosure ships with the following items:
Rail kit
One Console breakout cable, also known as a KVM dongle (00Y8366)
A Torx-8 (T8) screwdriver for use with components, such as, the drive cage,
which is mounted on the rear of the chassis
One AC power cord for each power supply installed, 1.5m 10A, IEC320 C14
to C13 (part number 39Y7937)
3.3 Supported compute nodes
The IBM NeXtScale nx360 M4 is the only compute node that is supported in the
n1200 enclosure. However, the number of compute nodes that can be powered
on depends on the following factors:
The power policy that is selected (N+N, N+1, or no redundancy)
The AC input voltage
The components that are installed in each compute node (such as, processor,
memory, drives, and PCIe adapters)
