Solid State Drives
  • Up to 4 32GB solid state drives
IDE Compact Flash 8GB Compact Flash Type II (supports Linux boot) is on the motherboard.
Management Environment
Sun Blade Server Module Service Processor (SP)
  • The SP is not a separate card. It is embedded on the motherboard.
  • The SP may be installed with Lights-Out Manager (LOM), IPMI 2.0-compatible software.
  • The factory pre-configured LOM transitioned from ELOM to ILOM in September 2008.
  • The SP card provides one 10/100 Management Ethernet Port to Midplane and the Chassis Monitoring Module (CMM).
  • LOM on the SP card can be accessed via the Dongle cable assembly's DB9 connector to the Universal Connector Port (UCP) on the front of the Sun Blade X6250.
  • The Dongle cable assembly is provided with the Sun Blade 6000 chassis and also orderable. Option X4621A.
  • The SP card and LOM provide the following:
    • A Browser User Interface (HTTP/HTTPS).
    • DMTF/CLP based CLI and SSH.
    • Support for RADIUS, LDAP, and MS Active Directory.
    • IPMI 2.0 (Host access through KCS and remote).
    • Compatibility for third-party SNMP system managers with requirements for SNMP (v1, v2C, v3).
    • Remote KVMS/Java Console (redirected Keyboard Video Mouse and Storage through a JAVA Application).
    • Support for Sun N1 System Manager.
Standard Integrated Interfaces
Universal Connector Port (UCP) The Dongle Cable Assembly (Option X4621A) that ships with the Sun Blade 6000 chassis connects to the UCP and provides the following:
  • VGA HD15 port to AST2000 video controller with 128MB of shared SDRAM.
  • 2 USB 2.0 ports.
  • DB9 serial port (for connection to SP LOM).
  • RJ45 port. Not supported on the Sun Blade X6220 or X6250.
  • DB9F to RJ45F DCE Adapter.
Network Management Two 10/100Base-T Ethernet connection via midplane to the CMM. Only one connection (NET 0) is used.
Ethernet Two 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet ports routed through midplane to 2 NEM slots.
PCI Interfaces with the Sun Blade Modular System (chassis)
  • I/O is offered in two form factors:
    • PCI Express ExpressModules (EM)
      and
    • PCI Express Network Express Modules (NEM).
  • Each Sun Blade X6250 has four, PCI Express links allocated to:
    • Two EMs (X8)
      and
    • Two NEMs (X4).
  • Each NEM has one link assigned to each server module. All server modules share the NEM. For example, Blade 0 has access to NEM 0/slot 0, and NEM 1/slot 0. Blade 1 to NEM 0/slot 1 and NEM 1/slot 1, etc.
  • EM slots are not shared between server modules. Each EM slot is specific to one server module.
