Nodes per 42U rack | 56 half-wide, or 28 full-wide. |
Management | Chassis Management Modules 2 (CMM2) modules provide chassis management. One or two CMM2s standard, depending on the model and the use of two provides redundancy. Earlier models of the Enterprise Chassis use the first generation CMM. The CMM2 interfaces with the integrated management module (IMM2) integrated in each compute node in the chassis. Optional Lenovo XClarity Administrator for hardware resource management with integrators to VMware vCenter and Microsoft System Center, including virtualization, networking, and storage management. Chassis with first generation CMM can be upgraded to CMM2 however CMM and CMM2 cannot be mixed. |
I/O architecture | Up to eight lanes of I/O to an I/O adapter card, with each lane capable of up to 25 Gbps bandwidth. Up to 16 lanes of I/O to a half-wide node with two adapters. A wide variety of networking solutions, including Ethernet, Fibre Channel, Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), and InfiniBand. |
Power supplies | Up to six power supplies that can provide N+N or N+1 redundant power. AC power supplies are 80 PLUS Platinum certified and provide over 94% efficiency at 50% load and 20% load. Each power supply contains two independently powered 40 mm cooling fan modules. All installed power supplies must be identical. |
Fan modules | Ten fan modules (eight 80 mm fan modules and two 40 mm fan modules); Four 80 mm and two 40 mm fan modules standard. |
