Product Description

The Sun Blade X6275 M2 Server Module is a dual-node blade. The server's two compute nodes
(node 0 and node 1) are housed on a single motherboard in a single blade enclosure. The two
compute nodes within a blade are identical and symmetric, but are fully independent of each
other.
Each of the two nodes in the blade are based on a two-socket Intel Xeon platform, which
consists of the IOH24D, the I/O Controller Hub 10 (ICH10R), and the I/O subsystem. Both
compute nodes in the Sun Blade X6275 M2 Server module have their own ILOM SP, which is
based on the AST2100 chip.
Each node includes an Oracle Flash Module (FMod), which provides a reliable and secure boot
source for the node.
There are two versions of the Sun Blade X6275 M2 Server Module:
Sun Blade X6275 M2 Server Module 1 GbE Server Module
■
Sun Blade X6275 M2 Server Module 10 GbE Server Module
■
Both version of the Sun Blade X6275 M2 Server Module are supported in the Sun Blade 6000
modular system chassis.
