Sun Blade 6000 Disk Module |
Requires a RAID Expansion Module (REM) in the Sun Blade X6270.
Also requires a Network Express Module (NEM) in the Sun Blade Modular System (6048 or 6000). The NEM has to have Sun Blade 6000 Disk Module support.
|
Management Environment
|
Sun Blade Server Module Service Processor (SP) |
- The SP is not a separate card. It is embedded on the motherboard.
- The SP is installed with Integrated Lights-Out Manager (ILOM).
- The SP provides one 10/100 Management Ethernet Port to Midplane and the Chassis Monitoring Module (CMM).
- ILOM on the SP card can be accessed via the Dongle cable assembly.
- Both the three-cable (X4622A) and four-cable (X4621A) dongle cable options
can be used to connect to ILOM using the Universal Connector Port (UCP) on the front of the Sun Blade X6270.
- Use the DB-9 serial connector with the DB9F to RJ45F adapter on the 4-cable dongle to connect to ILOM via the UCP.
- Use the RJ-45 serial connector on the 3-cable dongle to connect to ILOM via the UCP.
- The SP card and LOM provide the following:
- Remote management with full Keyboard, Mouse, Video, Storage (KVMS) redirection.
- Remove media capability (floppy, DVD, CD etc.).
- DMTF style CLI.
- Browser-based UI for control of the system through a graphical interface.
- IPMI 2.0 compliance for management and control.
- SNMP V1, V2c, V3 for system monitoring.
- Monitor and report system and component status on all FRUs.
|
Standard Integrated Interfaces |
Universal Connector Port (UCP)
|
The Dongle Cable assembly connects to the UCP and provides the following:
- Connection to ILOM SP.
- 2 USB 2.0 ports.
- VGA video connection to an on-board AST2100 graphics chip.
|
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 X6270 has four, PCI Express Gen 2 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.
