IBM PureFlex System
IBM introduced the first expert integrated systems, IBM PureSystems®, in 2012 to fundamentally change the economics and experience of IT. Over 10,000 clients rely on IBM technology to optimize their social, mobile, and big data workloads on cloud infrastructure. PureSystems solutions build on this cloud experience, integrating it into the system to improve efficiency and simplify deployment.
- Built-in expertise: Capturing and automating what experts do. IBM expert integrated systems represent the collective knowledge gained in thousands of deployments, established methods of work, innovative thinking, IT industry leadership, and the distilled expertise of IBM and solution providers. All of this is built into the system in a deployable form from the base system infrastructure through the application.
- Integration by design: Integrating and tuning hardware and software. All the hardware and software components are deeply integrated, tuned in the lab and packaged in the factory into a single ready-to-go system that is optimized for the workloads you need to run. All of the integration is done for you, by experts.
- Simplified experience: Making every part of the IT lifecycle easier. With expert integrated systems, the entire experience is much simpler, from solution design to purchase, system setup to operation, maintenance to upgrades. Management of the entire system of physical and virtual resources is integrated and all this is done in an open manner to enable participation by a broad ecosystem of partners to bring their industry-optimized solutions to bear.
The simplicity of a PureFlex System begins with acquisition. You can choose one of two predefined and fully integrated, optimized configurations as your starting point. Your solution will ship to you as a complete, fully-tested and configured package of compute, storage and networking resources on which you and IBM Business Partners can customize a solution. With built-in expertise for deployment, management, and optimization (including cloud capabilities) to simplify key tasks across all of your IT resources, your system is designed to deploy quickly and be easy to manage. You can select the capabilities you need based on your target workload and environment. Each configuration is available with your choice of IBM POWER7+™ based or Intel™ processor-based compute nodes and an array of networking and storage options.
The following PureFlex System offerings are available:
- PureFlex System Express (#EFDA) for smaller, single chassis installations

Electronic Service Agent and the IBM Electronic Support web portal are dedicated to providing fast, exceptional support to IBM Systems customers. The IBM Electronic Service Agent tool is a no-additional-charge tool that proactively monitors and reports hardware events, such as system errors, performance issues, and inventory. The Electronic Service Agent tool can help you stay focused on your company's strategic business initiatives, save time, and spend less effort managing day-to-day IT maintenance issues. Servers enabled with this tool can be monitored remotely around the clock by IBM Support all at no additional cost to you.
Now integrated into the base operating system of AIX 5.3, AIX 6.1, and AIX 7.1, Electronic Service Agent is designed to automatically and electronically report system failures and utilization issues to IBM, which can result in faster problem resolution and increased availability. System configuration and inventory information collected by the Electronic Service Agent tool also can be viewed on the secure Electronic Support web portal, and used to improve problem determination and resolution by you and the IBM support team. To access the tool main menu, simply type "smitty esa_main", and select "Configure Electronic Service Agent." In addition, ESA now includes a powerful Web user interface, giving the administrator easy access to status, tool settings, problem information, and filters. For more information and documentation on how to configure and use Electronic Service Agent, refer to
The IBM Electronic Support portal is a single Internet entry point that replaces the multiple entry points traditionally used to access IBM Internet services and support. This portal enables you to gain easier access to IBM resources for assistance in resolving technical problems. The My Systems and Premium Search functions make it even easier for Electronic Service Agent tool-enabled customers to track system inventory and find pertinent fixes.
Benefits
Increased uptime: The Electronic Service Agent tool is designed to enhance the Warranty or Maintenance Agreement by providing faster hardware error reporting and uploading system information to IBM Support. This can translate to less wasted time monitoring the "symptoms," diagnosing the error, and manually calling IBM Support to open a problem record. Its 24 x 7 monitoring and reporting mean no more dependence on human intervention or off-hours customer personnel when errors are encountered in the middle of the night.
Security: The Electronic Service Agent tool is designed to be secure in monitoring, reporting, and storing the data at IBM. The Electronic Service Agent tool securely transmits either via the Internet (HTTPS or VPN) or modem, and can be configured to communicate securely through gateways to provide customers a single point of exit from their site. Communication is one way. Activating Electronic Service Agent does not enable IBM to call into a customer's system. System inventory information is stored in a secure database, which is protected behind IBM firewalls. It is viewable only by the customer and IBM. The customer's business applications or business data is never transmitted to IBM.
More accurate reporting: Since system information and error logs are automatically uploaded to the IBM Support center in conjunction with the service request, customers are not required to find and send system information, decreasing the risk of misreported or misdiagnosed errors. Once inside IBM, problem error data is run through a data knowledge management system and knowledge articles are appended to the problem record.
Customized support: Using the IBM ID entered during activation, customers can view system and support information in the "My Systems" and "Premium Search" sections of the Electronic Support Web site at
My Systems provides valuable reports of installed hardware and software using information collected from the systems by Electronic Service Agent. Reports are available for any system associated with the customer's IBM ID. Premium Search combines the function of search and the value of Electronic Service Agent information, providing advanced search of the technical support knowledgebase. Using Premium Search and the Electronic Service Agent information that has been collected from your system, customers are able to see search results that apply specifically to their systems.
