IBM eServer p5 Model 510 Express

Entry-level UNIX and Linux® servers with enhanced features & performance

The IBM System p5 510 Express edition rack-mount servers deliver attractive pricing in a high-performance system that includes reliability and virtualization features seldom seen in entry-level systems. The 1- and 2-core p510 Express servers also feature:

• 1.9MB L3 cache
• 36MB L2 cache
• 21.1Gbps peak processor-to-memory bandwidth
• two Ultra320 SCSI controllers

Scalability

The p5 510 Express servers delivers many scalability options in a slim 2U package. The IBM p510 Express includes:

• 1GB - 32GB DDR2 SDRAM (528 MHz)
• 4 x internal SCSI disk bays, for up to 1.2TB internal disk
• 3 x PCI-X adapters
• support for 4GBps Fibre & 10 Gigabit Ethernet

Virtualization Engine™

The IBM System p5 510 Express model comes with IBM’s Virtualization Standard, allowing you to utilize the server to consolidate multiple UNIX and Linux workloads on one system. In addition, Dynamic LPAR further enhances the virtualization capabilities of your p510Q, allowing you to allocate and re-allocate systems resources as needed. without rebooting.

Virtual LAN comes with the Virtualization Engine, and delivers a fast interconnect in between your partitions, speeding internal communications to memory speeds.

Advanced POWER Virtualization

This module is optional on the p510 Express platform, and offers features like Micro-Partitioning and Virtual I/O Server (VIOS). These features further maximize the utilization of your system resources.

Micro-Partitioning lets you define partitions as small as 1/10th of a processor, and changed in increments as small as 1/100th of a processor.

VIOS for the System p5 510 Express increases the amount of systems resources you can share between partitions, such as expensive disk drives. The VIOS includes the Integrated Virtualization Manager, a browser-based applications that greatly eases the amount of time and effort required to create and manage virtual devices & partitions.

64-bit POWER5+ processing power

IBM’s fifth generation of POWER technology delivers 64-bit computing with advanced features like simultaneous multithreading, which allows you to run two concurrent application threads on the same processor.

Reliability, Availability, Security (RAS)

The p510 servers include many of the same RAS features included with the higher-end System p5 machines. Some of the RAS capabilities include:

• Chipkill™ ECC & bit-steering memory
• hot-swappable, redundant components
• dynamic deallocation of system components
• a sophisticated service processor

The System p5 510 servers also design logical partitions to be shielded from one another to prevent applications running in one partition from violating security policies across partitions, for additional security.
