Draft Document for Review October 18, 2004
iSeries Model 570
Chapter 8.
The iSeries Model 570 is the industry's first POWER5
technology-based server. It has the capability to
simultaneously run multiple operating environments with an
integrated infrastructure that's simpler, more productive, and
more resilient than ever before. The new 16-way Eserver
i5 Model 570 delivers 20 percent more performance than the
previous high-end iSeries server, the 32-way Eserver
iSeries Model 890.
The Model 570 is offered as a rack mounted configuration. It
provides an integrated set of hardware capabilities that
include two integrated 1 Gbps Ethernet ports and an
integrated Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) controller. Also incorporated
are hot-plug PCI-X card slots and disk slots, redundant hot-plug power supplies,
dual power cords, redundant hot-plug cooling fans, and an optional redundant
CPU power regulator. Hot-plugging of removable media devices is not supported.
