OVERVIEW AND FEATURES Day 1 Section 1
Covered in this section What is the MIS 1.5 What are the differences from MIS 1.0
What is the MIS 1.5 The MIS Server Platform features: Up to 2 server modules per platform. Two Intel® Xeon® E series processors per server motherboard, S2600JF family. Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 that automatically allows processor cores to run faster than the base operating frequency, if the cores are operating below power, current, and temperature specification limits (< 35ºC ambient). Dual GbE networking onboard. Up to 8 DDR3 DIMMs (new: 8 GB, 16 GB, or 32 GB) for a single-server motherboard configuration, and up to 16 DIMMs for a dual-server motherboard configuration. Up to 6 HBAs for single servers—these can be full-height (4.25") and half-depth (3.375"), up to 4 externally facing and/or up to 4 internally facing (total external and internal not to exceed 6). For single-server platforms only, optional 4 port1 8Gb Fibre Channel PCIe cards. Up to 4 HBAs per server module (for up to a total of 8 across both server modules) in a dual server system—these can be half-height (2.12"), half-depth (3.375"), 2 internal max and/or a maximum of 2 external. Unique Battery Back-Up PCIe technology allows the optional addition of BBUs without the consumption of any of the available PCIe slots. Two boot drive modules per server, with up to two boot drives per module.
What are the differences with MIS 1.0 Midplanes and interposers replace the need for interior cables. Fewer cables maximize air flow through the unit. Higher capacity fan modules for greater cooling capability Dual server platforms with both server modules installed features hot- swappable server modules for greatly reduced service times. Support for larger capacity drives, higher memory, and faster processor speeds.
