Management Environment
Service Processor (SP)
  • The Sun Blade X6450's SP is installed with Integrated Lights-Out Manager (LOM), IPMI 2.0-compatible software. Connectivity is provided by the NET MGT DB9 serial port connector.
Standard Integrated Interfaces
USB 2 USB 2.0 Ports with front-accessible connectors.
Graphics Embedded graphics using an ATI ES100 video controller. 15-pin VGA connector.
Serial 1 RS-232 Serial Port DB9 connector.
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 X8450 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.
