Chassis compatibility |
Sun Blade 6000
modular system with PCIe 2.0 midplane (standard with model A90–B). The minimum CMM ILOM
firmware required is 3.0.10.15, included in chassis software release 3.2. |
Chassis midplane I/O |
Depending on
your server model, each node supports either a 1GbE or 10GbE interface through
the chassis midplane to the NEM.
Note - Although a supported NEM might include both
1GbE and 10GbE ports, the server module only supports one interface type.
One (x8) PCIe 2.0 bus connection per node to a chassis PCIe EM slot. Node 0 is assigned to chassis blade PCIe EM slot 1, node 1 is assigned to chassis blade PCIe EM slot 0. One 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet port per node with the 1GbE model (X6275M2–BB). The port for node 0 is assigned to a supported NEM in chassis slot NEM0, the port for node 1 is assigned to an supported NEM in chassis slot NEM1. One 10GbE port per node with the 10GbE model (X6275M2–CB). The port for node 0 is assigned to a supported NEM in chassis slot NEM0, the port for node 1 is assigned to an supported NEM in chassis slot NEM1.
|
CPU |
Up to
four Intel Xeon Processor E5600 Series six-core processors per server module (two per
node). Twelve cores per node, for a total of twenty–four cores per server
module.
Note - Both nodes of the server module must be configured identically (CPUs and memory).
|
Dual-node
design |
Two independent, symmetric compute nodes, 0 and 1, in a single blade enclosure. |
Front
panel I/O |
Two Universal Connector Ports (UCP), one per node, are available for use
with the multi-port (dongle) cable. The multi-port cable provides the following interface connections:
|
Memory |
- Twenty-four memory slots total (12 slots per compute node). Slots support up to 1333 MHz low voltage DDR3, ECC registered, DIMMs.
Up to 96 GB of main memory per node using 8 GB DIMMs. Up to 48 GB of main memory per node using 4 GB DIMMs. Up to 2 DDR3 DIMMs per channel, 3 channels per installed processor.
Note - Both
nodes of the server module must be configured identically (CPUs and memory).
|
Network Express
Module (NEM) compatibility |
Each node host requires a NEM for network I/O (for
more on NEM requirements see Installation Prerequisites). NEM SAS ports (internal or external) are not
supported. The following NEMs are supported for the Sun Blade X6275 M2 with
1GbE (X6275M2–BB):
Sun Blade 6000 10p GbE Pass-Thru NEM (X4250A) — recommended. Sun Blade 6000 Virtualized Multi-Fabric 10GbE M2 NEM (X4338A). Sun Blade 6000 Virtualized Multi-Fabric 10GbE NEM (X4238). Sun Blade 6000 Multi-Fabric NEM (X4212A).
The following NEM is supported for the Sun Blade X6275 M2 with
10GbE (X6275M2–CB):
Note - For the 10GbE model, the Sun Blade 6000 Ethernet Switched 24p 10GbE NEM
does not provide a 1GbE interface and therefore the 1GbE interface, although present
on each server node, is disabled by firmware.
|
Operating systems |
|
Service Processor (SP) |
Each
node includes an AST2100 service processor (SP). The SP provides IPMI 2.0 compliant
remote management capabilities. Each node SP features:
Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM version 3.0). Local ILOM command-line access using a serial connection. 10/100 management Ethernet port to midplane (shared by both node SPs). Remote keyboard, video, mouse, and storage (KVMS) over IP.
|
Storage |
Note - Server module nodes do not support
the installation of a RAID Expansion Module (REM) and therefore do not support
internal chassis SAS connections to blade storage. However, each node has an assigned
PCIe EM slot that could be used for an HBA connecting to external
storage.
|
Video |
A maximum resolution of 1280x1024 is supported with 8 MB of video
memory. |
