What is a Server?

a computer program running as a service, to serve the

context as "clients") which may or may not be running onthe same computer.

services, to serve the needs of programs running on other

computers on the same network.a software/hardware system (i.e. a software service

running on a dedicated computer) such as a databaseserver file server mail server or rint server.

Why Server better than PC? Servers often run for long periods without interruption and availability must often be very

high, making hardware reliability and durability extremely important. Although servers cane u rom commo y compu er par s, m ss on-cr ca en erpr se servers are ea y very

fault tolerant and use specialized hardware with low failure rates in order tomaximize uptime, for even a short-term failure can cost more than purchasing and installingthe system

Server Key points:1. RAS (Reliability Availability Serviceability)

High quality component for better MTBF

Hot swap Component

2. Higher Performance

More processor, more memory, more disks

. ca a y Upgradeable to a significant level

Up to 4 or 8 way processor


4. Manageability

Advance system Management: IMM, PFA, Light Path Diagnostic4

What is a Blade?

A Blade contains the core components of a server

Each blade has:

Processors

Memory

Internal storage (optional)

Network Interface Cards NIC

Blade-server with cover off

Optional plug-in components

The Blade server plugs into the midplane of achassis that provides common functions as:

Management console Access (KVM)

Power supplies

Cooling Fans

Blade server with its cover on ready forinsertion into the BladeCenter Chassis

Network Connectivity ( LAN, SAN, NAS, HPC) Shared media devices (CD/DVD-ROM and

diskette or USB drives)


Optional Modules to support additional

functions Blade servers and Chassis

Future Historym

IBM introduced BladeCenter in November 2002, since then IBM has maintained compatibility, grown theportfolio and opened the specification to the industry. Key to BladeCenter is true reliability, with no single

points of failure and massively improved density, simplification, power & cooling, management and

choice.

HP re-invents, an ave a istory o eserte customers an partners. Every time HP c ange esigns, a

that investment is gone. Customers pay for HPs bad decisions.
