Commonly Used Terms
The following table identifies some of the terms commonly used in this guide.
|
|
|---|
Chassis |
|
CMM |
Chassis Monitoring Module. A baseboard management controller
(BMC) for the entire Sun modular system chassis. |
FMod |
Flash Module. A user-installable high performance
solid-state storage device (similar to a DIMM) that acts like a SATA disk
and uses flash memory technology for increased data access speeds. |
ILOM |
Oracle's Integrated Lights Out
Manager (ILOM) is the embedded management software that runs on the server module
node SP and CMM that enables you to manage your system. For additional
information about ILOM, refer to the Integrated Lights Out Manager documentation. |
NEM |
Network Express
Module (NEM). A networking I/O component that plugs into a Sun Blade Modular
System chassis. The chassis contains two NEM slots: NEM 0 and NEM 1. |
Node |
An
independent computer that resides on the server blade (also called compute node). Each
node has its own CPU, memory, I/O, and service processor. The Sun Blade
X6275 M2 server module has two nodes—two separate servers on one blade. |
PCIe
EM |
PCI Express (PCIe) ExpressModule (EM). PCIe EMs can be installed in the chassis
to provide installed server blades option card expansion. Each node of the Sun
Blade X6275 M2 server module has one available PCIe EM chassis slot.
Note - For the
server module, node 0 is assigned to chassis blade PCIe EM slot 1,
and node 1 is assigned to chassis blade PCIe EM slot 0.
|
Server
module |
Sun Blade X6275 M2 server module hardware. The physical server blade that plugs
into a Sun Blade 6000 modular system chassis. |
SP |
Embedded service processor (SP) on
the server module. The SP is a "baseboard management controller" (BMC). Each node
of the server blade has its own dedicated SP. The Sun Blade 6000
modular system chassis also has its own SP called the chassis monitoring module
(CMM). |
