Processor Requirements And Options; Memory Requirements And Options - IBM RS/6000 SP Handbook

Four memory slots supporting up to 64 GB of memory
Five PCI slots (four 64-bit and one 32-bit) for communication adapters
A dedicated Mezzanine bus (MX) slot for an optional switch adapter
Integrated Ethernet with BNC and RJ45 ports (only one port can be used at a
time):
– 10Base2 Ethernet (BNC)
– 10BaseT or 100BaseTX Ethernet (RJ45)
Support for up to six SP Expansion I/O Units (F/C 2055)
Two internal hard disk drive bays supporting up to 72.8 GB of storage (36.4
GB mirrored)
Integrated Ultra SCSI network
Two external, nine-pin, RS-232 connectors on the planar S2 and S3 ports.
The S3 port is supported only for a HACMP serial heartbeat; the S2 port is not
supported for this use. A 9- to 25-pin converter cable is included with the
node:
– Node-to-node HACMP cable (F/C 3124)
– Frame-to-frame HACMP cable (F/C 3125)

2.3.4 Processor requirements and options

375 MHz POWER3 SMP High Nodes require a minimum of four 375 MHz
processors mounted on one card. You can order up to three additional
four-processor cards (F/C 4350) to configure the node with a total of sixteen
CPUs. Table 2-3 shows the processor option for the 375 MHz POWER3 SMP
High Node.

4350 One processor card with four CPUs

2.3.5 Memory requirements and options

375 MHz POWER3 SMP High Nodes have one to four memory cards, require a
minimum of one GB of memory and support a maximum of 64 GB. Memory is
supplied by 128 MB and 256 and 512 MB DIMMs which must be mounted in
banks of eight DIMMs. Different capacity DIMMs (in banks of eight) can be mixed
on the memory cards.
