Keyboards And Displays; Frame, Power, And Battery Backup Configuration Rules - IBM p5 590 System Handbook

Configuration limitations have been established to help ensure appropriate
PCI or PCI-X bus loading, adapter addressing, and system and adapter
functional characteristics when ordering I/O drawers.
I/O drawer limitations, in addition to individual adapter limitations, are shown
in the feature descriptions section of the Sales Manual.
Only EEH adapters are supported in a partitioned server.

The purpose of this section is to provide guidelines for configuring keyboards and
displays configuration:
USB keyboards supporting various language groups can be ordered with the
I/O drawer for use with native-attached displays on the p5-590 and p5-595; a
three-button USB mouse connects to the USB keyboard
Various flat panel and CRT displays are available to support graphics
adapters

5.2.10 Frame, power, and battery backup configuration rules

The primary system frame is a 24-inch frame with an integrated power
subsystem to support the p5-590 and p5-595 system. It provides 42U of space
and houses the CEC and its components.

When configuring the system frame, you must consider the following rules:
The p5-595 server must be installed in a raised floor environment
All p5-590 and p5-595 frames and Expansion Rack features must have door
assemblies installed
Doors kits containing front and rear doors are available in either slim line or
acoustic styles
