Did you know The x. M3 offers a flexible, scalable design and simple upgrade path to eight HDDs or SSDs, and 2. GB of memory. In addition, a built in altimeter provides more efficient power utilization and lower noise levels. Comprehensive systems management tools such as advanced diagnostics, a cable management arm, and the ability to control resources from a single point make it easy to deploy, integrate, service, and manage. The server also offers an upgrade to four built in Gigabit Ethernet ports without consuming an additional PCI Express slot. Key features. The challenge of a high performance business is to do more with lessserve more Web pages, handle more secure connections, support more email users. You need to reduce the costs of doing business and improve the service you deliver to your customers while lowering your overall risk. The dual socket IBM System x. M3 can reduce your costs with its energy smart design. It can improve service with reduced operational complexity and increased management functionality. It will lower your IT risk with the resiliency that comes from having no single point of failure. And like all IBM servers, the x. M3 offers you the trust that comes from IBM global reach, service, and support. Performance. The x. M3 offers numerous features to boost performance and reduce costs Up to two 6 core Xeon 5. Xeon 5. 60. 0 series processors offer up to 5. Eighteen DIMMs of registered 1. MHz DDR3 ECC memory provide speed, high availability, and a memory capacity of up to 2. GB. High performance 6 Gbps SAS RAID controllers and 1. K RPM 6 Gbps SAS disk drives in a variety of capacities to suit your local storage requirements. IBM System x3550 M4 servers include Intel Xeon multicore processors IBM United States Hardware Announcement 112140 August 21, 2012. First enduser releases of IBMMicrosoftcompatible versions Major marketleading releases and releases introducing significant new technology. The use of solid state drives SSDs instead of or along with traditional spinning drives HDDs can significantly improve IO performance. An SSD can support 2. IO operations per second IOPS whereas a typical HDD handles fewer than 5. IOPS. Flexibility and scalability. The x. 35. 50 M3 has the ability to grow with your application requirements with these features Very high density computing in a 1. U dual socket server. A choice of 4 core or 6 core processors with clock rates from 1. GHz to 3. 6 GHz. 1. DIMM sockets allowing memory expansion of up to 2. GB. A choice of power supplies including 4. W, 6. 75 W AC or DC, or energy efficient 6. W. Five USB 2. 0 ports available two front, two rear, and one internal for an embedded hypervisor. Storage bay flexibility Up to eight hot swap 2. SAS or SATA HDDs, or solid state drives intermixing supported or four 2. Direct attach SAS storage with the EXP2. EXP2. 52. 4, and EXP3. IBM System Storage servers, including network attached storage NAS, and i. SCSI or Fibre Channel attached storage, can also be attached. The x. 35. 50 M3 provides two PCI Express PCIe 2. IO slots for increased network or storage connectivity. Manageability and security. Powerful systems management features simplify local and remote management of the x. M3 The x. 35. 50 M3 includes an Integrated Management Module IMM to monitor server availability, perform Predictive Failure Analysis, and trigger IBM Systems Director alerts. An optional Virtual Media Key enables additional systems management capabilities, including web based out of band remote control keyboard video and mouse, remote optical drive support, Windows blue screen error capture, and support for LDAP and SSL protocols. Text Console Redirection support allows the administrator to remotely view x. M3 text messages over Serial or LAN connections. Integrated industry standard Unified Extensible Firmware Interface UEFI next generation BIOS. New capabilities include. Human readable event logs no more beep codes. Complete out of band coverage by the Advance Settings Utility to simplify remote setup. A complete setup solution, allowing adapter configuration functions to be moved into UEFI. Integrated Trusted Platform Module TPM 1. Industry standard AES NI support for faster, stronger encryption. Integrated IPMI 2. IBM Systems Director to anomalous environmental factors, such as voltage and thermal conditions. It also supports highly secure remote power control using data encryption. IBM Systems Director is included for proactive systems management. IBM Systems Director comes with a portfolio of tools, including IBM Systems Director Active Energy Manager, IBM Service and Support Manager, and others. IBM Systems Director also offers extended systems management tools for additional server management and increased availability. When a problem is encountered, IBM Systems Director can issue administrator alerts via email, pager, and other methods. IBM Systems Director Active Energy Manager provides advanced power management features with actual real time energy monitoring, reporting, and capping features. Availability and serviceability. The System x. 35. M3 provides many features to simplify serviceability and increase system uptime The x. M3 servers offer Chipkill ECC memory protection when using x. DIMMs. Chipkill memory is up to 1. ECC memory at correcting memory errors. This can help reduce downtime caused by memory errors. The x. 35. 50 M3 offers memory mirroring for redundancy in the event of a non correctable memory failure. Toolless cover removal provides easy access to upgrades and serviceable parts, such as HDDs and memory. Similarly, the Virtual Media Key and the Serve. RAID controller can be installed and replaced without tools. This means less time and therefore less money spent servicing the x. M3. The server offers hot swap and redundant fan modules and power supplies and hot swap disk drives redundant when implemented in conjunction with a RAID controller. These features mean greater system uptime. Toolless slides ship with the server, together with a cable management arm CMA, that allows the rack server to easily slide into place. The drop down light path diagnostics panel and individual light path LEDs quickly lead the technician to failed or failing components. This simplifies servicing, speeds up problem resolution, and helps improve system availability. Solid state drives SSDs offer significantly better reliability than traditional mechanical HDDs for greater uptime.
