Draft Document for Review October 18, 2004
I/O.The 9411-100 is also used to order the Enterprise Enablement feature for the
associated Eserver p5 server.The Enterprise Enablement feature can not be
moved between two 9411-100.
The 9411-100 i5/OS I/O uses the same software feature codes as used for the
9406 machine type. For i5/OS V5R3 Software Information refer to:

IBM will also customize the 9411-100 i5/OS I/O configuration to match the LVT
output. When a p5 model 9119-590 or 9119-595 has feature code #8453 Base
Customer Placement (for hardware placement on a partitioned system) selected
and the 9411-100 i5/OS I/O is included, indicating i5 OS on a pSeries, feature
code #8453 must also be included in the 9411-100 configuration.IBM will
customize the order after first building and testing the configuration using normal
IBM Manufacturing processes. The #8453 can only be ordered on the 9411-100
when the configuration includes a 9119-590 or 9119-595 that also has #8453.
The #8453 Base Customer Placement is not valid on stand alone orders for
9411-100's.
1519-100 and 1519-200 Integrated xSeries Adapter for iSeries (direct
attach)
The IBM Integrated xSeries Adapter for iSeries provides a direct high-speed
attachment (HSL) of an xSeries server to an iSeries server and installs in select
xSeries servers. The Integrated xSeries Adapter extends iSeries integration with
Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003, Linux RedHat Enterprise 3 (AS
or ES ) and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 to xSeries high performance n-way
Intel architecture servers. With the Integrated xSeries Adapter, more Windows
users and more complex Windows and Linux applications can be integrated with
iSeries servers.
There are two models of the IXA, 1519-100 and 1519-200. These two IXA
models provide the same function, but they are designed to work with different
xSeries models.The 1519-100 plugs into selected 3U, 4U, 5U n-way xSeries
servers. The 1519-200 plugs into rack-optimized (2U) xSeries x236 and x346
servers. Make sure you use the IXA model that is designed to work with your
choice of xSeries server.
The direct attach server consists of an xSeries server tower that contains an
Integrated xSeries Adapter for iSeries (1519-100 or 1519-200). The Integrated
