| Overview |
|
The new IBM Power 780 server (9179-MHD) uses the latest POWER7+ processor and the next-generation I/O technology to deliver unprecedented performance, scalability, reliability, and manageability for demanding commercial workloads.
The innovative Power 780 model MHD server is a symmetric multiprocessing (SMP), rack-mounted server. This modular system uses one to four enclosures that are four EIA units tall and housed in a 19-inch rack. Each enclosure contains four powerful POWER7+ processors and high density memory DIMMs using 4Gb technology. IBM continues to use a high-performance PCIe Gen2, I/O backplane introduced with model MHC.
The new POWER7+ processors are designed as single chip modules (SCMs), each with 64-bit architecture. L3 cache on POWER7+ 780 processor chips has been increased 2.5X compared to previous POWER7® processor chips. Each POWER7+ SCM enables either four or eight active processor cores with up to 10 MB per core of L3 cache and 256 KB per core of L2 cache. Power 780 systems are available at frequencies of 3.72 GHz with 128 cores, or 4.42 GHz with 64 cores. This new model server is available with as few as four active cores and incrementing one core at a time through built-in Capacity on Demand (CoD) functions to the full capacity of the system.
New high-density memory DIMMs using 4 Gb technology are now available for the Power 780 model MHD. This includes new memory DIMMs for 32 GB, 64 GB, 128 GB, and 256 GB DDR3 memory features. Existing memory features are supported for model upgrades.
The EXP30 Ultra SSD I/O Drawer (#EDR1) gives the Power 770+ and Power 780+ up to 30 solid state drives (SSDs) in just 1U of rack space without PCIe slots. The drawer provides up to 480,000 IOPS and up to 12.6 TB of capacity for AIX® or Linux™ clients. Up to 48 additional HDDs can be directly attached to the Ultra Drawer (still without using any PCIe slots), enabling up to 43.2 TB additional capacity in only 4U additional rack space for AIX clients. This ultradense SSD option is attached to the 770+ or 780+ using a new GX++ 2-port, PCIe2 x8 Adapter (#1914).
POWER7+ processor chips imbed new hardware accelerators for AIX memory expansion and AIX Encrypted File System and IPSec network security protocol. This can offload work from processor cores from doing these tasks and improve performance of those functions. Combined with the increased POWER7+ clock speeds this helps Power Systems be a continued workhorse for critical workloads. Applications may run faster and be more responsive, which may result in competitive advantages and higher customer satisfaction.
The POWER7+ hardware accelerator for Active Memory Expansion delivers 25% higher levels of memory expansion than available with POWER7 processor chips. While POWER7 systems offer up to 100% memory expansion which can effectively double the server's maximum memory, POWER7+ servers offer up to 125% memory expansion for AIX partitions. Thus, a system memory maximum of 4 TB could effectively become 9 TB effective memory capacity.
A new firmware feature called Dynamic Platform Optimizer is available on both Power 770 model MMD and Power 780 model MHD. This feature monitors processor and memory affinity and adjusts workload placement to optimize performance in a virtualized consolidated environment.
As part of the IBM commitment to delivering the most flexible and resilient Power high-end systems, all new Power 780 (9179-MHD) and 795 servers come standard with a specific number of Elastic On/Off CoD processor and memory days depending on the configuration of the system at initial ship or upgrade time. For every new Power 780 or 795, 15 Elastic CoD On/Off processor days and 240 GB memory days will be included at no charge for every processor core initially shipped with the system. These Elastic CoD On/Off processor and memory days must be used in accordance with the Temporary Capacity on Demand terms and conditions.
The new Power Systems Pools offering is a multisystem IBM Power 780 and 795 infrastructure offering designed to enable a highly resilient and flexible IT environment in support of large-scale server consolidation and your most demanding business application requirements. Power Systems Pools allows for the aggregation of On/Off and Elastic CoD compute resources, including processors and memory, across a number of Power 780 and 795 servers. It delivers greater flexibility to respond to critical application workload requirements as well as to enhance the availability of your applications.
As part of the offering, those Power 780 and 795 servers that participate in an IBM Power Systems Pools environment are provided with regularly planned maintenance events (up to eight in a calendar year) that enables you to turn on inactive processors and memory in another participating system in the pool in the event that a system may need to be brought down for some type of maintenance occurrence. In addition, all On/Off and Elastic CoD processor and memory days, including those that now come standard with all new Power 780 and 795 servers, can be accumulated and managed at a pool level to effectively and efficiently manage and balance application workload peak requirements. Power Systems Pools can consist of up to 10 Power 780 or Power 795 systems to support large-scale application, database, and infrastructure requirements.
New to both Power 780 model MHD and Power 795 model FHB are 90-day temporary On/Off CoD processor and memory enablement features. These features enable a system to temporarily activate all inactive processor and memory CoD resources for a maximum of 90 days before you must order another temporary On/Off enablement feature number. Also new for Power 780 model MHD are high-density memory DIMMs that use 4 Gb technology. These memory DIMMs are for 64 GB, 128 GB, and 256 GB DDR3 memory features. This enables a new 256 GB DDR3 memory feature increase the model FHB maximum memory capacity from 8 TB to 16 TB. IBM continues to offer the 32 GB, 2 Gb memory feature.

Processors
- SMP and FSP cable features are required when connecting the processors together for two-, three-, and four-drawer CEC enclosures.
MHB/MHC(5003) MHD/MHC(EP24) MHB/MHC/MHD SMP cables SMP cables FSP cables Two-drawer 3711, 3712 3715, 3716 3671 Three-drawer 3712, 3713 3715, 3716, 3717 3671, 3672 Four-drawer 3712, 3713, 3714 3716, 3717, 3718 3671, 3672,3673 - A system can have from one to four CEC enclosures, and each CEC enclosure requires one processor card. Each processor card has four SCM processors.
- The processor card feature must be populated with POWER7+ DDR3 memory DIMMs.
- All processor cards in the system must have the same feature number.
- Each system must have a minimum of four active processors.
- Processor CoD activations will activate processor hardware only in the system serial number they are purchased for. If you move processor hardware to another system, the processor may not be functional in that system until arrangements are made to move the processor activations or purchase additional processor activations. Contact your IBM representative or IBM Business Partner for more information.
Memory
- All processor cards have 16 memory DIMM slots (eight per processor) and are populated with POWER7 or POWER7+ DDR3 memory DIMMs.
- Each processor card feature must have a minimum of two identical memory features (eight DIMMs per card) installed. This includes inactive processor card features present in the system.
- Each system must contain a minimum of 32 GB of active system memory. This includes inactive processor card features present in the system.
- Memory features include a total of four DIMMs. There is a required plug location for every memory feature attached to a processor.
- The minimum activations ordered with all initial orders of memory features EM40, EM41, EM42, and EM44 must be 50% of their installed capacity.
- The minimum activations ordered with MES orders of memory features EM40, EM41, EM42, and EM44 will depend on the total installed capacity of features EM40, EM41, EM42, and EM44. This enables you to purchase newly ordered memory with less than 50% activations when the currently installed capacity exceeds 50% of the existing features EM40, EM41, EM42, and EM44 capacity.
- The minimum activations ordered with all initial orders of memory feature 5564 must be 192 GB or 256 GB per each feature 5564 ordered. That is 75% of the installed feature 5564 capacity.
- Memory activations are distributed equally across all memory features by the same activation features EMA2 (1 GB) or EMA3 (100 GB).
- Each system must contain a minimum of 32 GB of active system memory.
- Memory features EM40, EM41, EM42, EM44,5600, 5601, 5602, and 5564 can be mixed on the same POWER7+ processor card. However, they cannot be mixed in the first 8 DIMM slots of each processor card.
- All processor cards have 16 memory DIMM slots (eight per processor) and are populated with POWER7/7+ DDR3 memory DIMMs.
- Memory CoD activations will activate memory hardware only in the system serial number they are purchased for. If you move memory hardware to another system, the memory may not be functional in that system until arrangements are made to move the memory activations or purchase additional memory activations. Contact your IBM representative or IBM Business Partner for more information.
- It is recommended that memory be installed evenly across all processor cards in the system. Balancing memory across the installed processor cards allows memory access in a consistent manner and typically results in the best possible performance for your configuration.
- Plans for future memory upgrades should be taken into account when deciding which memory feature size to use at the time of initial system order.
I/O drawer availability
- To further reduce possible single points of failure, POWER7+ implements enhanced disk storage configuration rules. IBM configuration tools and IBM technical support personnel do not support integrated cached disk controller configurations unless they have a protected write cache. Disk controllers with write cache must protect the cache by either pairing the disk controllers (write cache replication or IOA-level mirroring) or by using an auxiliary write cache IOA. This is true for all partitions in the Power 780 using any operating systems.
- It is recommended that any attached remote I/O drawers be located in the same rack as the Power 780 server for ease of service, but they can be installed in separate racks if the application or other rack content requires it.
- The following list shows the I/O drawers that are supported or available on the model 780, with the correct interface to use for each of the drawers and the maximum number of attached I/O drawers:
Order Maximum
Feature description Status Interface number
5796 PCI-X DDR 12X I/O Drwr Supported 12X 32
5802 PCIe 12X I/O Drwr (disk bays) Available 12X 16
5877 PCIe 12X I/O Drwr (No disk bays) Available 12X 16
5886 Exp 12S SAS Disk Drwr Supported SAS 110
5887 EXP24S SFF Gen2-bay Drawer Available SAS 56
EDR1 EXP30 Ultra SSD I/O Drawer Available SAS 8
7314-G30 PCI-X DDR 12X I/O Drawer Supported 12X 32
The following I/O drawers are available on the Power 780:
- The PCI-X DDR 12X Expansion Drawer (#5796) is a 4 EIA unit tall drawer and mounts in a 19-inch rack. The drawer is 22.35 cm (8.8 in) wide and takes up half the width of the 4 EIA rack space. It requires the use of a feature 7314 drawer mounting enclosure. The 4 EIA tall enclosure can hold up to two feature 5796 drawers mounted side by side in the enclosure. The drawer is 80 cm (31.5 in) deep and can weigh up to 20 kg (44 lb). The PCI-X DDR 12X Expansion Drawer has six 64-bit, 3.3 V, PCI-X DDR slots running at 266 MHz that use blind swap cassettes and support hot plugging of adapter cards. The drawer includes redundant hot-plug power and cooling. You must select one of the two available interface adapters for use in the feature 5796 drawer: the Dual-Port 12X Channel Attach Adapter -- Long Run (#6457) or the Dual-Port 12X Channel Attach Adapter -- Short Run (#6446). The adapter selection is based on how close the host system or the next I/O drawer in the loop is physically located. Feature 5796 attaches to a host system CEC enclosure with a 12X adapter in a GX++ slot via SDR or DDR cables. A maximum of four feature 5796 drawers can be placed on the same 12X loop. Mixing features 5802 or 5877 and 5796 on the same loop is not supported. Mixing feature 5796 and 7314-G30 on the same loop is supported with a maximum of four drawers total per loop. A minimum configuration of two 12X cables (either SDR or DDR), two ac power cables, and two SPCN cables is required to ensure proper redundancy.
- The PCIe 12X I/O drawer is a 19-inch I/O and storage drawer. It provides a 4 EIA unit tall drawer, containing 10 PCIe-based I/O adapter slots and 18 SAS hot-swap, small form-factor disk bays, which can be used for either disk drives or SSDs, organized into two groups of nine. Each group of disk slots is controlled by one or two PCIe SAS storage adapters located in a PCIe slot in the same feature 5802 as the SAS drives. A maximum of two feature 5802 drawers can be placed on the same 12X loop.
Mixing feature 5802 and feature 5796 or 7314-G30 on the same loop is not supported. Feature 5877 is the same as feature 5802, except it does not support any disk bays. Feature 5877 can be on the same loop as feature 5802. Feature 5877 cannot be upgraded to feature 5802. The physical dimensions of the drawer measure 444.5 mm (17.5 in) wide by 177.8 mm (7.0 in) high by 711.2 mm (28.0 in) deep for use in a 19-inch rack. The adapter slots use blind swap cassettes and support hot plugging of adapter cards. A minimum configuration of two 12X DDR cables, two dc power cables, and two SPCN cables is required to ensure proper redundancy. The drawer attaches to the host CEC enclosure with a 12X adapter in a GX slot via 12X DDR cables available in different cable lengths: 0.6 (#1861), 1.5 (#1862), 3.0 (#1865), or 8 meters (#1864). The 12X SDR cables are not supported.
- The EXP 12S SAS Drawer (#5886) is a 2 EIA tall drawer and mounts in a 19-inch rack. The drawer can hold either SAS disk drives or SSDs. The drawer is 0.511 meters (20.12 in) long and can weigh up to 18.14 kg (40 lb) without SAS disks. The EXP 12S SAS Drawer has twelve 3.5-inch SAS bays with redundant data paths to each bay. The drawer supports redundant hot-plug power and cooling and redundant hot-swap SAS expanders (Enclosure Services Manager, or ESM). Each ESM has an independent SCSI Enclosure Services (SES) diagnostic processor.
The SAS disk drives or SSDs contained in the EXP12S are controlled by one or two PCIe SAS adapters connected to the EXP12S via SAS cables. The SAS cable will vary depending on the adapter and operating system being used, and the protection that you need.
- The large cache PCI-X (#5908) uses a SAS Y-cable when a single port is running the EXP12S. A SAS X-cable is used when a pair of adapters is used for controller redundancy.
- The medium cache PCI-X (#5902) and PCIe (#5903) adapters are always paired and use a SAS X-cable to attach the feature 5886 I/O drawer.
- The zero cache PCI-X (#5912) and PCIe (#5901) use a SAS Y-cable when a single port is running the EXP12S. A SAS X-cable is used for AIX and Linux environments when a pair of adapters are used for controller redundancy.
In the preceding configurations, all 12 SAS bays are controlled by a single controller or a single pair of controllers.
A second EXP12S drawer can be attached to another drawer using two SAS EE cables, providing 24 SAS bays instead of 12 bays for the same SAS controller port. This is called cascading. In this configuration, all 24 SAS bays are controlled by a single controller or a single pair of controllers.
The feature 5886 can also be directly attached to the SAS port on the rear of the Power 780, providing a very-low-cost disk storage solution. When used this way, the embedded SAS RAID controllers augmented by the 175 MB Cache RAID (#5662) in the system unit control the disk drives in EXP12S. A second unit cannot be cascaded to a feature 5886 attached in this way.
- EXP30 Ultra SSD I/O Drawer (#EDR1) is a 1U high I/O drawer providing 30 hot-swap SSD bays and a pair of integrated large write cache, high-performance SAS controllers. Ultra-high levels of performance are provided without using any PCIe slots on the POWER7 server in an ultra-dense packaging design. The two high-performance, integrated SAS controllers each physically provides 3.1 GB write cache. Working as a pair, they offer mirrored write cache data and controller redundancy. The cache contents are designed to be protected by built-in flash memory in case of power failure. If the pairing is broken, write cache is not used after existing cache content is written out to the drive and performance will probably be slowed until the controller pairing is re-established. Each controller is connected to a GX++ PCIe adapters in a server (for example, #1914) over a PCIe x8 cable (example: #EN05 or #EN07 or #EN08). Usually both controllers are attached to one server, but each controller can be assigned to a different server or partition or VIOS. Active/Active capability is supported assuming at least two RAID arrays. The controller enables RAID 0, RAID 5, RAID 6, and RAID 10 for AIX , Linux , and VIOS. AIX/Linux/VIOS also enable OS mirroring (LVM). The adapters' CCIN is 57C3. Also used are eMLC SSD designed to fit in the Ultra drawer bays such as the 387GB #ES02 SSD. A minimum of six SSD are required in each Ultra drawer. Each controller can access all 30 SSD bays. The bays can be configured as one set of bays run by a pair of controllers working together. Or the bays can be divided into two logical sets where each of the two controller "owns" one of the logical sets. With proper software if one of the controller fails, the other controller can run both sets of bays.
- The EXP24S SFF Gen2-bay Drawer (#5887) is an expansion drawer with twenty-four 2.5-inch form-factor SAS bays. Slot filler panels are included for empty bays when initially shipped. A feature 5887 supports up to 24 hot-swap SFF SAS hard disk drives (HDDs). It uses only 2 EIA of space in a 19-inch rack. The EXP24S includes redundant ac power supplies and two power cords. The EXP24S SFF bays use Gen2 or SFF-2 SAS bays that are not compatible with CEC SFF Gen1 SAS bays or with feature 5802 or 5803 SFF SAS bays.
With AIX , Linux , and VIOS, you can order the EXP24S with four sets of six bays, two sets of 12 bays, or one set of 24 bays (mode 4, 2, or 1). With IBM i, you can order the EXP24S as one set of 24 bays (mode 1).
The EXP24S SAS ports are attached to a SAS controller that can be a SAS PCI-X or PCIe adapter or pair of adapters. The EXP24S can also be attached to an imbedded SAS controller in a server with an imbedded SAS port or to the integrated SAS controllers in the EXP30 Ultra SSD I/O Drawer. Attachment between the SAS controller and the EXP24S SAS ports is via the appropriate SAS Y or X cables.
12X I/O drawer cables
- I/O drawers are connected to the adapters in the CEC enclosure with the following cables: data transfer cables (12X DDR cables for the feature 5802 and feature 5877 I/O drawers and 12X SDR or DDR cables for the feature 5796 and 7314-G30 I/O drawers) and power control cables.
- The first 12X I/O drawer attached in any I/O drawer loop requires two data transfer cables. Each additional drawer in the loop (up to the maximum allowed) requires one additional data transfer cable.
- The first 12X I/O drawer attached to a system unit requires two power control cables. Each additional I/O drawer added to a system requires one additional power control cable. Each system has one power control loop. All I/O drawers attached to a system are included in the same power control loop. Power control cable loops are different in this regard from data transfer cable loops.
- PCIe 12X cable choices: The PCIe 12x drawer attaches to the host CEC enclosure with a 12x adapter in a GX++ slot via 12X DDR cables available in different cable lengths: 1.5 (#1862), 3.0 (#1865), or 8 meters (#1864).
- PCI-X DDR 12X cable choices: Each feature 5796 drawer requires one Dual-Port PCI-X DDR 12X Channel Adapter, either Short Run (#6446) or Long Run (#6457). The choice of adapters depends on the distance to the next 12X channel connection in the loop, either to another I/O drawer or the system unit. The following table identifies the supported cable lengths for each 12X channel adapter. I/O drawers containing the short range adapter can be mixed in a single loop with I/O drawers containing the long range adapter. In this table a "Yes" indicates that the 12X cable identified in that column can be used to connect the drawer configuration identified to the left. A "No" means it cannot be used.

Note: The PCI-X DDR 12X Cable (#1829, #1861, or #1862) is limited to connecting two drawers or a server to the drawer if in the same rack and within 20 EIA. It has very limited use due to its short length. It cannot be used to connect to a system drawer because of the short length. It is intended for use between two feature 5796 or G30 drawers mounted side by side in the same enclosure (#7314). It can also be used to connect two modules located one beneath the other in a feature 7014 rack.
Note: The PCI-X DDR 12X Cable (#1840 or #1865) is limited to connecting the CEC to a drawer if in the same rack and further than 20 EIA. In some limited configurations you can use the 3.0 m, 12X cable (#1840 or #1865) to locate 5796 modules in adjacent racks. The cable length requires careful management of each drawer location within the rack. The best choice for connecting a feature 5796 or G30 I/O Drawer in an adjacent rack is the 8.0 m 12X cable (#1834 or #1864).
Note: The PCI-X DDR 12X cable (#1834 or #1864) is limited to connecting a CEC to a drawer if in different racks. It is intended for use when connecting two modules that are located in adjacent racks. This cable may not be connected to the 12X Short Run adapter (#6446).
19-inch racks
The 9179-MHD and its I/O drawers are designed to mount in the 7014-T00, 7014-T42, feature 0551, and feature 0553 racks. These are built to the 19-inch EIA standard. When ordering a new 9179 system, you can order the appropriate 7014 rack model with the system hardware on the same initial order. IBM also makes the racks available as features of the 9179-MHD when you order additional I/O drawer hardware for an existing system (MES order). The rack features 0551 and 0553 should be used if you want IBM to integrate the newly ordered I/O drawer in a 19-inch rack before shipping the MES order.
The 9179-MHD has the following rack requirements:
- The Power 780 can be ordered without a rack.
- The Power 780 consists of one to four CEC enclosures. Each enclosure occupies 4U of vertical rack space. The Power 780 is designed to be installed in a 7014-T00 or 7014-T42 rack and shipped from IBM to the client. An existing 7014-T00, 7014-T42, feature 0551, or feature 0553 rack can be used for the Power 780 if sufficient space and power are available.
- The 7014-S25 and feature 0555 rack can support only one Power 770 CEC enclosure.
- The 36 EIA unit (1.8 meter) rack (#0551) and the 42 EIA unit (2.0 meter) rack (#0553) are available for order on MES upgrade orders only. For initial system orders, the racks should be ordered as machine type 7014-T00 or T42.
- For Power 780 configurations with two, three, or four drawers, all drawers must be installed together in the same rack in a contiguous space of 8U, 12U, or 16U within the rack. The uppermost enclosure in the system is the base enclosure. This enclosure will contain the active service processor and the operator panel, if an operator panel is present in the system. If a second CEC enclosure is part of the system, the backup service processor is contained in the second CEC enclosure. The service processor is a component of the Service Interface Card in these enclosures.
- When a Power 780 server is installed in a 7014-T00 or 7014-T42 rack that has no front door, you must order a Thin Profile Front Trim Kit for the rack. The required trim kit for the 7014-T00 rack is feature number 6263. The required trim kit for the 7014-T42 rack is feature number 6272. When upgrading from a 9117-MMA, trim kit 6246 or 6247 can be used for one drawer enclosure only.
- The design of the Power 780 is optimized for use in a 7014-T00 (feature 0551) or 7014-T42 (feature 0553) racks. Both the front cover and the processor flex cables occupy space on the front left and right sides of an IBM 7014 or feature 055x rack that may not be available in typical non-IBM racks.
- Acoustic door features are available with the 7014-T00 (feature 0551) and 7014-T42 (feature 0553) racks to meet the lower acoustic levels identified in the Physical specifications section. You can order the acoustic door feature on new 7014-T00 (feature 0551) or 7014-T42 (feature 0553) racks or for the 7014-T00 (feature 0551) or 7014-T42 (feature 0553) racks that you already own.
- A Power 780 door (#6250 or #ERG7) is available on the 7014-T42 rack.
1.8 Meter Rack (#0551)
The 1.8 Meter Rack (#0551) is a 36 EIA unit rack. The rack that is delivered as feature 0551 is the same rack delivered when you order the 7014-T00 rack; the included features may be different. Some features that are delivered as part of the 7014-T00 must be ordered separately with the feature 0551. Order the feature 0551 only when required to support rack integration of MES orders prior to shipment from IBM .
2.0 Meter Rack (#0553)
The 2.0 Meter Rack (#0553) is a 42 EIA unit rack. The rack that is delivered as feature 0553 is the same rack delivered when you order the 7014-T42 rack; the included features may be different. Some features that are delivered as part of the 7014-T42 must be ordered separately with the feature 0553. Order feature 0553 only when required to support rack integration of MES orders prior to shipment from IBM .
1.3 Meter Rack (#0555)
The 1.3 Meter Rack (#0555) is a 25 EIA unit rack. The rack that is delivered as feature 0555 is the same rack delivered when you order the 7014-S25 rack; the included features may be different.
Integrated I/O
- Each CEC enclosure must contain one Integrated Multifunction Card (#1768 or #1769).
- The Integrated Multifunction Card's Ethernet ports cannot be used for an IBM i console. Separate Ethernet adapters that can be directly controlled by IBM i without VIOS should be used for IBM i LAN consoles, if you want. Alternatively, you can also use an HMC for an IBM i console.
- The first CEC enclosure must contain one Integrated Multifunction Card (#1768 or #1769). It is optional for the second, third, or fourth CEC enclosure.
- Each Integrated Multifunction Card has four Ethernet ports, two USB ports, and one serial port. Use of the serial port by AIX/Linux is supported for MODEM call home, TTY console, and snooping even if an HMC or SDMC is attached to the server, unlike the earlier Power 780 model MHB. Like the model MHB, use by the serial port to communicate with a UPS is not supported.
- The first and second CEC enclosures each have two HMC or SDMC ports on the Service Processor-2 (#EU09). If there are two CEC enclosures, the HMC must be connected to both service processor cards.
Disks, media, and boot devices
- A device capable of reading a DVD must be attached to the system and available to perform operating system installation, maintenance, problem determination, and service actions such as maintaining system firmware and I/O microcode at their latest levels. Alternatively, the system must be attached to a network with an AIX NIM server configured to perform these functions.
- System boot is supported via DASD or SSD located in the CEC enclosure, located in a DASD drawer attached to a PCI adapter, in a 12X I/O drawer attached to a GX++ adapter, or from a network via LAN adapters.
- The minimum system configuration requires at least one SAS disk drive in the system for AIX and Linux and two for IBM i, or if you are using a Fibre Channel attached SAN (indicated by feature number 0837), a disk drive is not required. Attachment of the SAN using a Fibre Channel over Ethernet connection is also supported.
- Each CEC enclosure can support one media device when the Disk/Media Enclosure and Backplane feature (#5652) is ordered. Any supported DVD-RAM drive can be installed. Each system can support up to four media devices in the CEC enclosure -- a maximum of one in each enclosure.
- The model MHD supports both 2.5- and 3.5-inch SAS SFF DASD hard disks. The 3.5-inch DASD hard disks can be attached to the model MHD but must be located in a feature 5886 EXP12S I/O drawer, whereas 2.5-inch DASD hard disks may be either mounted internally or in the EXP24S SFF Gen2-bay Drawer (#5887).
- When ordering feature 1819, you must also order feature 5662. This applies to MES orders of feature 1819 unless feature 5662 is already present in the same CEC drawer. Feature 1815 and 5662 cannot be installed in the same drawer. Feature 1819 must not be installed in a drawer unless feature 5662 is also installed.
I/O slots and adapters
- Each Power 780 CEC enclosure has six full-length, 8X PCIe slots and two GX++ slots.
- There is a maximum of eight I/O expansion slots per enclosure (32 maximum per system):
Slot ID Adapter Type Slot size P2-C1 PCIe 8X Full length P2-C2 PCIe 8X Full length P2-C3 PCIe 8X Full length P2-C4 PCIe 8X Full length P2-C5 PCIe 8X Full length P2-C6 PCIe 8X Full length P1-C2 GX++ P1-C3 GX++ - The Power 780 I/O slot population rules are complex. Extensive configuration rules and checking procedures are incorporated into the Marketing Configurator ECFGPWR to help ensure a valid system configuration. Configurations generated without using the ECMPWR configurator may create orders that cannot be built, resulting in possible order rejection or delayed delivery.
- The maximum feature limits in the feature descriptions of this document for adapters and devices may not provide optimal system performance. These limits are given to assist with connectivity and functional assurance. The maximum values shown here apply to the features installed in the system CEC enclosures. Adding remote I/O drawers will increase these limits.
Power
- Each Power 780 server with two or more CEC enclosures must have one Power Control Cable (#6006 or similar) to connect the Service Interface Card in the first enclosure to the Service Interface Card in the second enclosure.
- Two ac power supplies are required for each CEC enclosure; the second power supply provides redundant power for enhanced system availability. A CEC enclosure will continue to function with one working power supply. A failed power supply can be hot swapped but must remain in the system until the replacement power supply is available for exchange.
Power distribution units
For systems installed in IBM 7014 or feature 055x racks, the following power distribution unit (PDU) rules apply (not all PDUs are available in all models of the 7014 or feature 055x):
- For PDU features 7188 and 7109 when using power cord feature 6654, 6655, 6656, 6657, or 6658: Each pair of PDUs can power up to three Power 780 CEC enclosures.
- For PDU features 7188 and 7109 when using power cord feature 6489, 6491, 6492, or 6653: Each pair of PDUs can power up to seven Power 780 CEC enclosures.
To enable full redundancy, each server drawer has two power supplies, which must be connected to separate PDUs.
Hot-plug options
- The following options are hot-plug capable:
- GX++ adapters.
- System ac power supplies: One functional power supply must remain installed at all times while the system is operating.
- Disk drives.
- Most PCIe adapters.
- Media devices.
- Hot-plug procedures are contained in the Customer Information Center at
- If the system boot device or system console is attached using an I/O adapter feature, that adapter may not be hot-plugged.
Logical partitioning
- Without PowerVM , Dynamic LPAR allows one partition per processor.
- Up to 10 partitions per processor are supported when PowerVM (#7942 or #7995) is ordered.
- For Linux partitions, a DVD-RAM and a Media Enclosure and Backplane (#5652) are required.
Available backplane configurations
The Power 780 CEC drawer has an extremely flexible and powerful backplane for supporting disks or SSDs. The six SFF bays can be configured in three different ways to match your business needs. Two built-in SAS controllers can be optionally augmented with a 175 MB cache RAID battery card. Two embedded SAS disk/SSD controllers are offered for redundancy or for additional flexibility. The optional 175 MB Cache RAID - Dual IOA Enablement Card (#5662) enables dual 175 MB write cache and provides dual batteries for protection of that write cache.
The backplane can be configured as one set of six bays, two sets of three bays (3/3), or three sets of two bays (2/2/2). Configuration options will vary depending upon the controller options and the operating system selected. The controllers for the six-bay (3/3) configurations are always the two embedded controllers. But if the 2/2/2 configuration is used, the two embedded controllers run the first two sets of bays (2/2) and a feature 5901 PCIe SAS adapter located in a PCIe slot in a CEC enclosure controls the third set (2). By having three controllers, you can have three boot drives supporting three partitions.
The following SSD/HDD configuration rules apply:
- You can mix SSD and HDD drives when configured as one set of six bays.
- To have both SSDs and HDDs within a 3/3 split configuration, you must use the same type of drive within each set of three. You cannot mix SSDs and HDDs within a subset of three bays.
- To have both SSDs and HDDs within a 2/2/2 split configuration, you must use the same type of drive within each set of two. You cannot mix SSDs and HDDs within a subset of two bays. The feature 5901 PCIe SAS adapter that controls the remaining two bays in a 2/2/2 configuration does not support SSDs.
You can configure the two embedded controllers together as a pair for higher redundancy or you can configure them separately. If you configure them separately, they can be owned by different partitions or they could be treated independently within the same partition. If configured as a pair, they provide controller redundancy and can automatically switch over to the other controller should one have problems. Also, if configured as a pair, both can be active at the same time (active/active) assuming there are two or more arrays configured. This enables additional performance capability as well as redundancy. If configured as a pair, the pair controls all six SFF bays and both recognize all six drives. The 3/3 and 2/2/2 configurations are not used with the paired controllers. RAID 0 and RAID 10 are supported, and you can also mirror two sets of controller/drives using the operating system.
Adding the optional 175 MB Cache RAID - Dual IOA Enablement Card (#5662) causes the pair of embedded controllers in that CEC drawer to be configured as dual controllers, accessing all six SAS drive bays. Without the feature 5662, each of the two controllers can access only two or three SAS drive bays. With the 175 MB Cache RAID - Dual IOA Enablement Card, you can get controller redundancy, additional RAID protection options, and additional I/O performance. RAID 5 (a minimum of three drives required) and RAID 6 (a minimum of four drives required) are available when configured as dual controllers with one set of six bays.
Another expansion option available using the paired embedded controller configuration with the 175 MB Cache RAID - Dual IOA Enablement Card feature is an SAS expansion port. The SAS expansion port can add more SAS bays to the six bays in the system unit. A feature 5886 SAS disk drawer is attached using an SAS port on the rear of the processor drawer and its 12 SAS bays are run by the pair of embedded controllers. The pair of embedded controllers is now running 18 SAS bays (six SFF bays in the system unit and twelve 3.5-inch bays in the drawer). The disk drawer is attached to the SAS port with an SAS YI cable and the embedded controllers are connected to the port using a feature 1819 cable assembly. In this 18-bay configuration, all drives must be HDDs.
IBM i supports configurations using one set of six bays but does not support logically splitting the backplane into 3/3 or 2/2/2. Thus, the 175 MB Cache RAID - Dual IOA Enablement Card (#5662) is required if IBM i is to access any of the SAS bays in that CEC drawer. AIX and Linux support configurations using two sets of three bays (3/3) or three sets of two bays (2/2/2) without feature 5662. With feature 5662, they support dual controllers running one set of six bays.
The system backplane also includes a third embedded controller for running the DVD-RAM drive in the CEC drawer. Because the controller is independent from the two SAS disk/SSD controllers, it enables the DVD to be switched between multiple partitions without affecting the assignment of disks or SSDs in the CEC drawer.
Capacity on Demand
Several types of Capacity on Demand (CoD) processors are optionally available on the Power 780 server. They help meet changing resource requirements in an on demand environment by using resources installed on the system but not activated.
Capacity Upgrade On Demand (CUoD) enables you to purchase additional permanent processor or memory capacity and dynamically activate it when needed.
On/Off Capacity on Demand (On/Off CoD) enables processors or memory to be temporarily activated in full-day increments as needed. Charges are based on usage reporting collected monthly. Processors and memory can be activated and turned off an unlimited number of times, whenever you want additional processing resources. With this offering system administrators have an interface at the HMC to manage the activation and deactivation of resources. A monitor that resides on the server logs the usage activity. You must send this usage data to IBM monthly. A bill is then generated based on the total amount of processor and memory resources utilized, in increments of processor and memory (1 GB) days. Before using temporary capacity on your server, you must enable your server. To do this, order an enablement feature (MES only) and sign the required contracts.
If a Power 780 server uses the IBM i operating system in addition to any other supported operating system on the same server, you must inform the sales team placing the billing feature order which operating system caused the temporary On/Off CoD processor use so that the correct feature can be used for billing.
Use the following features to order enablement features and support billing charges on the Power 780:

The On/Off CoD process consists of three steps: enablement, activation, and billing.
- On/Off CoD enablement: Description
Before requesting temporary capacity on a server, you must "enable" it for On/Off CoD. To do this, order a no-charge enablement feature (MES only) and sign the required contracts. IBM will generate an enablement code, mail it to you, and post it on the web for you to retrieve and enter on your server. A processor enablement code lets you request up to 90 processor days of temporary unused CoD processor capacity for all your processor cores which have not been permanently activated. For example, if you have 20 processor cores which are not permanently activated, the processor enablement code allows up to 1,800 processor days (20 x 90). If you have reached or are about to reach the limit of 90 processor days per unactivated processor core, place an order for another processor enablement code to reset the number of days you can request. Similarly, a memory enablement code lets you request up to 90 days of temporary unused CoD memory capacity for all your GB of memory which have not been permanently activated. For example if you had 100 GB of memory which was not permanently activated, the memory enablement code allows up to 9,000 GB memory days (100 x 90). If you have reached the limit of 90 memory days per unactivated memory, place an order for another memory enablement code to reset the number of days you can request. Before ordering a new enablement code for either memory or processor temporary CoD, you must first process a MES delete order, deleting the current enablement code installed in the server configuration file.
On/Off CoD enablement: Step-by-Step
Prerequisite 1: The sales channel ( IBM Business Partner) must sign one of the following contracts, if applicable:
- IBM Business Partner Agreement, Distributor Attachment for On/Off Capacity On Demand
- IBM Business Partner Agreement for Solution Providers -- Attachment for On/Off Capacity On Demand
- IBM Business Partner Agreement -- Attachment for On/Off Capacity On Demand
Prerequisite 2: The sales channel ( IBM Business Partner or IBM Direct) must register at
- Step 1: The client initiates the request for On/Off CoD use by asking the sales channel to enable the machine for temporary capacity.
- Step 2: The client must complete and sign the following contracts. It is the sales channel's responsibility to return the signed contract to the responsible CSO organization and fax a copy to IBM at 507-253-4553 or email a copy to tcod@us.ibm.com.
- Required: IBM Customer Agreement, Attachment for On/Off Capacity On Demand; IBM Supplement for On/Off Capacity On Demand
- Optional: IBM Addendum for On/Off Capacity On Demand Alternative Reporting
- Step 3: The sales channel places an order for processor or memory enablement features.
- Step 4: The sales channel updates the website registration data (see prerequisite 2 above) with information about the client machine being enabled for temporary capacity.
Note: The order for an enablement feature will not be fulfilled until this step is completed. - Step 5: IBM generates an enablement code, mails it, and posts it.
- Step 6: The client retrieves the enablement code and applies it to the server.
- On/Off activation requests: Description
When On/Off CoD temporary capacity is needed, simply use the HMC menu for On/Off CoD and specify how many of the inactive processors or how many gigabytes of memory you would like temporarily activated for some number of days. You will be billed for the days requested, whether the capacity is assigned to partitions or left in the shared processor pool. At the end of the temporary period (days you requested), you must ensure the temporarily activated capacity is available to be reclaimed by the server (not assigned to partitions), or you will be billed for any unreturned processor days (per the contract you signed).
On/Off CoD activation requests: Step-by-step
When you need temporary capacity, use the On/Off CoD temporary capacity HMC menu for the server and specify how many of the inactive processors or how many gigabytes of memory you would like temporarily activated for some number of days. The user must assign the temporary capacity to a partition (whether or not the machine is configured for LPAR) to begin using temporary capacity.
- On/Off CoD billing: Description
The contract, signed by the client before receiving the enablement feature, requires the On/Off CoD user to report billing data at least once a month (whether there is activity or not). This data is used to determine the proper amount to bill at the end of each billing period (calendar quarter). Failure to report billing data for use of temporary processor or memory capacity during a billing quarter will result in default billing equivalent to 90 processor days of temporary capacity. The sales channel will be notified of client requests for temporary capacity. As a result, the sales channel must order a quantity of billing features (one feature for each billable processor and memory day reported).
On/Off CoD billing: Step-by-step
The client must report billing data (requested and unreturned processor and memory days) at a minimum of once per month either electronically or via fax (stated requirement in the signed contract). At the end of each billing period (calendar quarter), IBM will process the accumulated data reported and notify the sales channel for proper billing. The sales channel places an order for the appropriate quantity of billing features (one processor billing feature ordered for each processor day used, or one memory day for each memory day utilized). IBM will ship a billing notice (notifies client of billing actions) to the ship-to address on the order as part of the fulfilment process. The client pays the sales channel and the sales channel pays IBM for the fulfillment of the billing features.

Utility CoD
Utility CoD provides additional processor performance on a temporary basis within the shared processor pool. Utility CoD enables you to place a quantity of inactive processors into the server's shared processor pool, which then becomes available to the pool's resource manager. When the server recognizes that the combined processor utilization within the shared pool exceeds 100% of the level of base (purchased/active) processors assigned across uncapped partitions, then a Utility CoD Processor Minute is charged and this level of performance is available for the next minute of use. If additional workload requires a higher level of performance, the system will automatically enable the additional Utility CoD processors to be used. The system continuously monitors and charges for the performance needed above the base (permanent) level. Registration and usage reporting for Utility CoD is made using a public website and payment is based on reported usage. Utility CoD requires PowerVM Standard Edition (#7942) or PowerVM Enterprise Edition (#7995) to be active on the 9179-MHD.
If a Power 780 server uses the IBM i operating system in addition to any other supported operating system on the same server, the client must inform the sales team placing the billing feature order which operating system caused the temporary Utility CoD processor use so that the correct feature can be used for billing.

Model upgrades
You can upgrade the 9117-MMA, 9179-MHB, or 9179-MHC with 9179-MHD processors. For upgrades from 9117-MMA, 9179-MHB, or 9179-MHC processor-based systems, IBM will install new CEC enclosures to replace the enclosures you currently have. Your current CEC enclosures will be returned to IBM in exchange for the financial considerations that are identified under the applicable feature conversions for each upgrade.
Clients taking advantage of the model upgrade offer from 9117-MMA, 9179-MHB, or 9179-MHC processor-based system are required to return all components of the serialized MT-model that were not ordered via feature numbers. Any feature for which a feature conversion is used to obtain a new part must be returned to IBM also. You may keep and reuse any features from the CEC enclosures that were not involved in a feature conversion transaction.
Upgrade considerations
Feature conversions have been set up for the following:
- 9117-MMA, 9179-MHB, or 9179-MHC processors to 9179-MHD processors
- DDR2 memory DIMMs to DDR3 memory DIMMs
- New trim kits upgrading from 9117-MMA or 9179-MHB to 9179-MHD (existing trim kits are only functional for one-drawer configurations or for racks holding only I/O and no Power 780 processor enclosures)
- PowerVM (Standard to Enterprise)
- Drawer/Bezel
- PCIe Crypto Gen3
- PCIx 1.5 GB RAID
The following features present on the current system can be moved to the new system:
- DDR3 memory DIMMs (#5600, #5601, #5602, #5564)
- Active Memory Expansion Enablement (#4791)
- FSP/Clock Pass Through Card (#5665)
- 175 MB Cache RAID - Dual IOA Enablement Card (#5662)
- Operator Panel (#1853)
- Disk/Media Backplane (#5652)
- PCIe adapters with cables
- Line cords, keyboards, and displays
- PowerVM (#7942 and #7995)
- I/O drawers (#5786, #5796, #5802, #5877, and #5886)
- Racks (#0551, #0553, and #0555)
- Doors (#6068, #6069, #6248, #6249, and #6858)
- SATA DVD-RAM (#5762)
The Power 780 can support the following drawers:
- Feature 5802 and 5877 PCIe 12X I/O drawers
- Feature 5797 and 7413-G30 PCI-X, 12X I/O Drawer
- Feature 5886 EXP12S SAS Disk Drawer
- Feature EDR1 EXP30 Ultra SSD I/O Drawer
The model MHD supports only the SAS DASD SFF hard disks or SSD internally. The older 3.5-inch DASD hard disks can be attached to the model MHD but must be located in an I/O drawer.
For a 9179-MHD system that has the On/Off CoD function enabled, you must reorder the On/Off enablement features (#EM9T and #EP9T) when placing the upgrade MES order for the new Power 780 server to keep the On/Off CoD function active. The On/Off enablement features should be removed from the configuration file before the MES order is started to initiate the model upgrade. Any temporary use of processors or memory owed to IBM on the existing system must be paid before installing the new Power 780 model MHD.

PowerVM
PowerVM is available on the 9179-MHD:
- PowerVM Editions are available as a hardware feature (#7942 for Standard Edition, #7995 for Enterprise Edition). Select the feature that provides the level of virtualization appropriate for your workloads.
- PowerVM Standard Edition (#7942) supports up to 10 partitions per core, VIOS, PowerVM Lx86, and multiple shared processor pools.
- PowerVM Enterprise Edition (#7995) adds support for Live Partition Mobility and Active Memory Sharing.
Other PowerVM technologies include:
- Workload Partitions (WPARs) provide isolated instances on top of a single AIX image.
- System Planning Tool simplifies the process of planning and deploying Power Systems LPARs and virtual I/O.
- Virtual I/O Server is a single-function appliance that resides in an IBM POWER5, POWER6® , POWER7 , or POWER7+ processor-based partition. It facilitates the sharing of physical I/O resources between client partitions ( AIX 7.1, AIX 6.1 with the 6100-07 Technology Level and Service Pack 6, or later, IBM i 6.1 with machine code 6.1.1, or later, or Linux ) within the server. VIOS provides shared Ethernet adapter (SEA) virtual I/O to client LPARs.
- Virtual SCSI (VSCSI) enables the sharing of physical storage adapters (Fibre Channel) and storage devices (disk and optical) between logical partitions.
- With virtual networking, a shared Ethernet adapter enables connectivity between internal and external virtual LANs (VLANs); virtual Ethernet provides high-speed connections between partitions.
- PowerVM Lx86 supports running most x86 Linux applications within Linux partitions.
- With Live Partition Mobility, available only with PowerVM Enterprise Edition, you can move a running AIX or Linux LPAR from one physical server to another with no downtime if both servers are using POWER6 , POWER7 , or POWER7+ processors. Also, IBM i and Linux partitions in Power 770 and Power 780 systems are enabled to migrate to another Power 770 or Power 780 system without disrupting services. Use this capability to:
- Evacuate workloads from a system before performing scheduled maintenance
- Move workloads across a pool of different physical resources as business needs shift
- Move workloads away from underutilized machines so that they can be powered off to save on energy and cooling costs
- With Active Memory Sharing, memory is dynamically moved between running partitions for optimal resource usage.
Capacity BackUp Offering (applies to IBM i only)
The Power 780 server's Capacity BackUp (CBU) designation can help meet your requirements for a second system to use for backup, high availability, and disaster recovery. It enables you to temporarily transfer IBM i processor license entitlements and 5250 Enterprise Enablement entitlements purchased for a primary machine to a secondary CBU-designated system. Temporarily transferring these resources instead of purchasing them for your secondary system may result in significant savings. Processor activations cannot be transferred.
The CBU specify feature 4891 is available only as part of a new server purchase or during an MES upgrade from an existing system to a 9179-MHD. Certain system prerequisites must be met and system registration and approval are required before the CBU specify feature can be applied on a new server.
Standard IBM i terms and conditions do not allow either IBM i processor license entitlements or 5250 OLTP (Enterprise Enablement) entitlements to be transferred permanently or temporarily. These entitlements remain with the machine they were ordered for. When you register the association between your primary and on-order CBU system, you must agree to certain terms and conditions regarding the temporary transfer.
After a CBU system designation is approved and the system is installed, you can temporarily move your optional IBM i processor license entitlement and 5250 Enterprise Enablement entitlements from the primary system to the CBU system when the primary system is down or while the primary system processors are inactive. The CBU system can then better support fail-over and role swapping for a full range of test, disaster recovery, and high availability scenarios. Temporary entitlement transfer means that the entitlement is a property transferred from the primary system to the CBU system and may remain in use on the CBU system as long as the registered primary and CBU system are in deployment for the high availability or disaster recovery operation.
The primary system for a Power 780 server can be:
- 9119-FHA
- 9119-FHB
- 9406-595
- 9117-MMA
- 9406-MMA
- 9406-570
- 9117-MMB
- 9117-MMC
- 9117-MMD
- 9179-MHB
- 9179-MHC
- 9179-MHD
These systems have IBM i software licenses with an IBM i P50 software tier, or higher. The primary machine must be in the same enterprise as the CBU system.
Before you can temporarily transfer IBM i processor license entitlements from the registered primary system, you must have more than one IBM i processor license on the primary machine and at least one IBM i processor license on the CBU server. An activated processor must be available on the CBU server to use the transferred entitlement. You may then transfer any IBM i processor entitlements above the minimum one, assuming the total IBM i workload on the primary system does not require the IBM i entitlement you would like to transfer during the time of the transfer. During this temporary transfer, the CBU system's internal records of its total number of IBM i processor license entitlements are not updated, and you may see IBM i license noncompliance warning messages from the CBU system. Such messages that arise in this situation do not mean you are not in compliance.
Before you can temporarily transfer 5250 entitlements, you must have more than one 5250 Enterprise Enablement entitlement on the primary server and at least one 5250 Enterprise Enablement entitlement on the CBU system. You may then transfer the entitlements that are not required on the primary server during the time of transfer and that are above the minimum of one entitlement.
For example, if you have an 8-core Power 780 as your primary system with four IBM i processor license entitlements (three above the minimum) and two 5250 Enterprise Enablement entitlements (one above the minimum), you can temporarily transfer up to three IBM i entitlements and one 5250 Enterprise Enablement entitlement. During the temporary transfer, the CBU system's internal records of its total number of IBM i processor entitlements is not updated, and you may see IBM i license noncompliance warning messages from the CBU system.
If your primary or CBU machine is sold or discontinued from use, any temporary entitlement transfers must be returned to the machine on which they were originally acquired.

Active Memory Expansion
Active Memory Expansion is an innovative POWER7+ technology that allows the effective maximum memory capacity to be much larger than the true physical memory maximum. Sophisticated compression/decompression of memory content can allow memory expansion up to 100%. This can allow a partition to do significantly more work or support more users with the same physical amount of memory. Similarly, it can allow a server to run more partitions and do more work for the same physical amount of memory.
Active Memory Expansion is available for partitions running AIX 6.1, or later. Technology Level 4 with SP2 is needed.
Active Memory Expansion uses CPU resource to compress/decompress the memory contents. The trade off of memory capacity for processor cycles can be an excellent choice, but the degree of expansion varies based on how compressible the memory content is, and it also depends on having adequate spare CPU capacity available for this compression/decompression. Tests in IBM laboratories using sample workloads showed excellent results for many workloads in terms of memory expansion per additional CPU utilized. Other test workloads had more modest results.
You have a great deal of control over Active Memory Expansion usage. Each individual AIX partition can turn on or turn off Active Memory Expansion. Control parameters set the amount of expansion desired in each partition to help control the amount of CPU used by the Active Memory Expansion function. An IPL is required for the specific partition that is turning memory expansion on or off. Once turned on, there are monitoring capabilities in standard AIX performance tools such as lparstat, vmstat, topas, and svmon.
A planning tool is included with AIX 6.1 Technology Level 4, allowing you to sample actual workloads and estimate both how expandable the partition's memory is and how much CPU resource is needed. Any model Power Systems model can run the planning tool. In addition, a one-time, 60-day trial of Active Memory Expansion is available to provide more exact memory expansion and CPU measurements. You can request the trial from the Capacity on Demand web page at
Active Memory Expansion is enabled by a chargeable hardware feature 4791, which can be ordered with the initial order of the server or as an MES order. A software key is provided when the enablement feature is ordered, which is applied to the server. An IPL is not required to enable the server. The key is specific to an individual server and is permanent. It cannot be moved to a different server.
The additional CPU resource used to expand memory is part of the CPU resource assigned to the AIX partition running Active Memory Expansion. Normal licensing requirements apply.
IBM i operating system
For clients loading the IBM i operating system, the four-digit numeric QPRCFEAT value used on the 9179-MHD is the same as the four-digit numeric feature number for the processors used in the system. For example, if the processor feature number in a system is EPH0, the QPRCFEAT value for the system would be EPH0.
- The QPRCFEAT value in a Power 780 server does not change with the addition of more processors or additional CEC enclosures.
- The QPRCFEAT value in a Power 780 server would change only if the feature number of the processors was changed due to a processor upgrade.
Reliability, Availability, and Serviceability (RAS)
The reliability of the IBM Power 780 starts with components, devices, and subsystems that are designed to be fault-tolerant. POWER7+ uses lower-voltage technology that improves reliability with stacked latches to reduce soft error (SER) susceptibility. During the design and development process, subsystems go through rigorous verification and integration testing processes. During system manufacturing, systems go through a thorough testing process to help ensure high product quality levels.
The processor and memory subsystem contains a number of features designed to avoid or correct environmentally induced, single-bit, intermittent failures as well as handle solid faults in components, including selective redundancy to tolerate certain faults without requiring an outage or parts replacement.
The AIX operating system supports disk mirroring (RAID 1) and disk controller duplexing. The Linux operating system supports disk drive mirroring (RAID 1). The adapter provides RAID 0, RAID 5, RAID 6, and RAID 10 for AIX and Linux . Under IBM i OS, mirroring and data spreading are provided by the operating system and RAID 5 and RAID 6 are provided by the adapter.
Memory error-correction extensions
POWER7+ memory has error detection and correction code circuitry designed to detect and correct faults that extend across multiple memory modules (DRAMs). This includes tolerating a complete DRAM chip failure (Chipkill recovery). POWER7+ memory used in the Power 780 server also contains a spare memory (DRAM) per rank of memory, which can be substituted for a failed DRAM module (DRAM sparing). The spares can be used when a DRAM fault is detected and provide additional protection beyond that provided by the error detection and correction circuitry. In addition, the POWER7+ memory subsystem can scrub memory to detect and correct intermittent errors.
The bus transferring data between the processor and the memory uses CRC error detection with a failed operation retry mechanism and the ability to dynamically retune bus parameters when a fault occurs. In addition, the memory bus has spare capacity to substitute a spare data bit-line for the one that is determined to be faulty.
Fault monitoring functions
On POWER7+ processor-based servers, hardware failures and software detected hardware failures are recorded in the system log. An error log analysis (ELA) routine analyzes the error, forwards the event to the Service Focal Point (SFP) application running on the HMC, and notifies the system administrator that it has isolated a likely cause of the system problem. The Service Processor event log also records unrecoverable checkstop conditions, forwards them to the SFP application, and notifies the system administrator.
After the information is logged, if the system is properly configured, a call home service request is initiated and the pertinent failure data with service parts information and part locations is sent to an IBM service organization. Client contact information and specific system-related data, such as the machine type, model, and serial number, along with engineering data related to the failure, are sent to IBM Service. The call home feature enables IBM service representatives to preemptively bring the most-probable replacement parts when a service call is placed, reducing repair time.
Disk drive fault tracking can alert the system administrator of an impending disk failure before it affects client operation.
Mutual surveillance
The service processor monitors the operation of firmware during the boot process and also monitors the hypervisor for termination. The hypervisor monitors the service processor and will perform a reset/reload if it detects the loss of the service processor. If the reset/reload does not correct the problem with the service processor, the hypervisor notifies the operating system, and the operating system can take appropriate action, including calling for service or initiating a failover operation to the alternate service processor, if present.
Environmental monitoring functions
POWER7+ processor-based servers include a range of environmental monitoring functions:
- Temperature monitoring warns the system administrator of potential environmental-related problems by monitoring the air inlet temperature. When the inlet temperature rises above a warning threshold, the system initiates an orderly shutdown. When the temperature exceeds the critical level, or if the temperature remains above the warning level for too long, the system will shut down immediately.
- Fan speed is controlled by monitoring actual temperatures on critical components and adjusting accordingly. If internal component temperatures reach critical levels, the system will shut down immediately regardless of fan speed. When a redundant fan fails, the system calls out the failing fan and continues running. When a nonredundant fan fails, the system shuts down immediately.
POWER7+ processor availability enhancements
As in POWER6 , the POWER7+ processor has the ability to do processor instruction retry and alternate processor recovery for a number of core-related faults. This significantly reduces exposure to both hard (logic) and soft (transient) errors in the processor core. Soft failures in the processor core are transient (intermittent) errors, often due to cosmic rays or other sources of radiation, and generally are not repeatable. With this function, when an error is encountered in the core, the POWER7+ processor will first automatically retry the instruction. If the source of the error was truly transient, the instruction will succeed and the system will continue as before. On IBM systems prior to POWER6 , this error would have caused a checkstop.
Hard failures are more difficult, being true logical errors that will be replicated each time the instruction is repeated. Retrying the instruction will not help in this situation because the instruction will continue to fail. In a number of cases, systems with POWER7+ processors can extract the failing instruction from the faulty core and retry it elsewhere in the system for a number of faults. Afterwards, the failing core is dynamically deconfigured and called out for replacement. The entire process is transparent to the partition owning the failing instruction. These systems are designed to avoid a full system outage.
POWER7+ single-processor checkstopping
As in POWER6 , POWER7+ provides single-processor checkstopping for certain faults that cannot be handled by the availability enhancements described in the preceding section. This significantly reduces the probability of any one processor affecting total system availability.
Dynamic fabric bus repair
For fabric busses connecting CEC drawers, this feature allows a faulty line on the fabric bus to be replaced by a spare dynamically, without the need to take down the system.
POWER7+ cache availability
The L2 and L3 caches in the POWER7+ processor are protected with double-bit detect, single-bit correct error correction code (ECC). In addition, the caches maintain a cache line delete capability. A threshold of correctable errors detected on a cache line can result in the data in the cache line being purged and the cache line removed from further operation without requiring a reboot. An ECC uncorrectable error detected in the cache can also trigger a purge and delete of the cache line. This results in no loss of operation if the cache line contained data unmodified from what was stored in system memory. Modified data would be handled through special uncorrectable error handling. L1 data and instruction caches also have a retry capability for intermittent error and a cache set delete mechanism for handling solid failures. In addition, the POWER7+ processors also have the ability to dynamically substitute a faulty bit-line in an L3 cache dedicated to a processor with a spare bit-line.
Active Memory Mirroring
Active Memory Mirroring (AMM) for Hypervisor is standard on the MHD. AMM for Hypervisor mirrors the main memory used by the Hypervisor firmware. With AMM, an uncorrectable error in one copy of the mirrored memory will be corrected by use of the mirrored pair. AMM efficiently guards against system-wide outages due to any such uncorrectable error associated with firmware. With AMM, uncorrectable errors in data owned by a partition or application will be handled by the existing Special Uncorrectable Error handling methods in the hardware, firmware, and operating system.
Special Uncorrectable Error handling
Special Uncorrectable Error (SUE) handling prevents an uncorrectable error in memory or cache from immediately causing the system to terminate. Rather, the system tags the data and determines whether it will ever be used again. If the error is irrelevant, it will not force a checkstop. If the data is used, termination may be limited to the program/kernel or hypervisor owning the data; or freeze of the I/O adapters controlled by an I/O hub controller if data would be transferred to an I/O device.
PCI extended error handling
PCI extended error handling (EEH)-enabled adapters respond to a special data packet generated from the affected PCI slot hardware by calling system firmware, which examines the affected bus, allows the device driver to reset it, and continues without a system reboot. For Linux , EEH support extends to the majority of frequently used devices, although some third-party PCI devices may not provide native EEH support.
Predictive failure and dynamic component deallocation
Servers with POWER® processors have long had the capability to perform predictive failure analysis on certain critical components such as processors and memory. When these components exhibit symptoms that would indicate a failure is imminent, the system can dynamically deallocate and call home about the failing part before the error is propagated system-wide. In many cases, the system will first attempt to reallocate resources in such a way that will avoid unplanned outages. In the event that insufficient resources exist to maintain full system availability, these servers will attempt to maintain partition availability by user-defined priority.
Uncorrectable error recovery
When the auto-restart option is enabled, the system can restart automatically following an unrecoverable software error, hardware failure, or environmentally induced (ac power) failure.
Serviceability
The IBM Power 780 is designed with both IBM and client serviceability in mind.
Advancements such as Guiding Light LED architecture are used to control a system of integrated LEDs that lead the individual servicing the machine to the correct part as quickly as possible. With the Power 780, you can replace service parts (customer replaceable units). To do this, the Power 780 uses Guiding Light LEDs to indicate the parts that need to be replaced.
An HMC attached to the Power 780 enables support personnel (with your authorization) to remotely log in to review error logs and perform remote maintenance if required.
The I/O device and adapter diagnostics consist of stand-alone diagnostics, which are loaded from the DVD-RAM drive, and online diagnostics. Online diagnostics, when installed, reside with the AIX operating system on the disk or system. They can be booted in single-user mode (service mode), run in maintenance mode, or run concurrently (concurrent mode) with other applications. They have access to the AIX error log and the AIX configuration data.
- Service mode enables checking of system devices and features.
- In concurrent mode the normal system functions continues while selected resources are being checked.
- Maintenance mode enables checking of devices and adapters.
Note: Because the 9179-MHD system has an optional DVD-RAM (#5762), alternative methods for maintaining and servicing the system need to be available if the DVD-RAM is not ordered; an external Internet connection must be available to maintain or update system microcode to the latest required level.
Concurrent maintenance guided service procedures will continue to be supported by the Repair and Verify (R&V) component of the Service Focal Point application running on the HMC. Repair procedures that are not covered by the guided R&V component will be documented and available for display on any web browser-enabled system as well as on the HMC. These procedures are available through the InfoCenter application.
Service environments
The HMC is a dedicated server that provides functions for configuring and managing servers for either partitions or a full-system partition using a GUI or command-line interface (CLI). An HMC attached to the system allows support personnel (with client authorization) to remotely log in to review error logs and perform remote maintenance if required.
Service Interface
Using the Service Interface, support personnel can communicate with the service support applications in a server using a console, interface, or terminal. Delivering a clear, concise view of available service applications, the Service Interface enables the support team to manage system resources and service information in an efficient and effective way. Applications available via the Service Interface are carefully configured and placed to give service providers access to important service functions.
Different service interfaces are used depending on the state of the system and its operating environment. The primary service interfaces are:
- LEDs
- Operator panel
- Service Processor menu
- Operating system service menu
- Service Focal Point on the HMC
In the Guiding Light LED implementation, when a fault condition is detected on the POWER7+ system, an amber system fault LED will be illuminated on the operator panel. The Guiding Light system pinpoints the exact part by blinking the amber FRU identify LED associated with the part to be replaced when selected by the servicer as part of the repair procedure. This action will roll up to the enclosure locate LED and blue system locate LED on the operator panel to provide a path from the system level to the enclosure and down to the individual component to be serviced.
The enclosure and system identify LEDs will turn on solid and can be used to follow the path from the system to the enclosure and down to the specific FRU.
First-failure data capture and error data analysis
First-failure data capture (FFDC) is a technique that helps ensure that when a fault is detected in a system, the root cause of the fault will be captured without the need to re-create the problem or run any sort of extended tracing or diagnostics program. For the vast majority of faults, a good FFDC design means that the root cause can also be detected automatically without servicer intervention. FFDC information, error data analysis, and fault isolation are necessary to implement the advanced serviceability techniques that enable efficient service of the systems and to help determine the failing items.
Error handling and reporting
In the unlikely event of system hardware or environmentally induced failure, the system runtime error capture capability systematically analyzes the hardware error signature to determine the cause of failure. The analysis result will be stored in system NVRAM. When the system can be successfully restarted either manually or automatically, the error will be reported to the operating system. Error log analysis (ELA) can be used to display the failure cause and the physical location of the failing hardware.
With the integrated service processor, the system can automatically send out an alert via phone line to a pager or call for service in the event of a critical system failure. A hardware fault will also turn on the amber system fault LED located on the system unit to alert the user of an internal hardware problem. The indicator may also be set to blink by the operator as a tool to allow system identification. For identification, the blue locate LED on the enclosure and at the system level turns on solid. The amber system fault LED is on solid when an error condition occurs.
On POWER7+ processor-based servers, hardware and software failures are recorded in the system log. When an HMC is attached, an ELA routine analyzes the error, forwards the event to the Service Focal Point (SFP) application running on the HMC, and notifies the system administrator that it has isolated a likely cause of the system problem. The service processor event log also records unrecoverable checkstop conditions, forwards them to the SFP application, and notifies the system administrator. After the information is logged in the SFP application, if the system is properly configured, a call home service request is initiated and the pertinent failure data with service parts information and part locations is sent to an IBM service organization. Client contact information and specific system-related data such as the machine type, model, and serial number, along with error log data related to the failure, are sent to IBM Service.
Service processor
The service processor diagnoses, checks the status of, and senses the operational conditions of a system. It runs on its own power boundary and does not require resources from a system processor to be operational to perform its tasks.
The service processor supports surveillance of the connection to the HMC and to the system firmware (hypervisor). It also provides several remote power control options, environmental monitoring, reset, restart, remote maintenance, and diagnostic functions, including console mirroring. The service processor menus (ASMI) can be accessed concurrently with system operation, allowing nondisruptive abilities to change system default parameters.
Concurrent maintenance
The Power 780 continues to support concurrent add or repair of power, cooling, PCI adapters, media devices, I/O drawers, and the operator panel. In addition, it continues to support concurrent firmware fixpack updates when possible. The determination of whether a firmware fixpack release can be updated concurrently is identified in the readme file released with the firmware.
Memory upgrade, Hot-node add and repair, GX adapter (I/O hub) add and repair
With the proper configuration and required protective measures, the Power 780 server is designed for node add, memory upgrade, GX adapter add and repair, or node repair without powering down the system.
Power 780 servers support the adding of an additional CEC enclosure (node) to a system (hot-node add) or adding additional memory (memory upgrade) to an existing node or adding additional GX adapter to an existing node. The additional Power 780 enclosure or memory or GX adapter would be ordered as a system upgrade (MES order) and added to the original system. The additional resources of the newly added CEC enclosure (node) or memory or GX adapter can then be assigned to existing operating system partitions or new partitions as required. Hot-node add, GX adapter add, and memory upgrade make it possible to upgrade a server by integrating a second, third, or fourth CEC enclosure or add additional memory or additional GX adapters into the server with reduced impact to the system operation.
In the unlikely event that CEC hardware (for example, processor or memory) experiences a failure, the hardware can be repaired by freeing up the processors and memory in the node and its attached I/O resources (node evacuation). GX adapter can be repaired by freeing up its attached I/O resources but without node evacuation.
To guard against any potential impact to system operation during hot-node add, memory upgrade, GX adapter repair, or node repair, you must comply with the following protective measures:
- For memory upgrade and node repair, ensure the system has sufficient inactive or spare processors and memory. Critical I/O resources must be configured with redundant paths.
- For GX adapter repair, attached I/O must be freed up or configured with redundant paths.
- Schedule upgrades or repairs during nonpeak operational hours.
- Move business applications to another server using the Live Partition Mobility feature or quiesce them.
- Back up critical application and system state information.
- Set up checkpoint databases.
Live Partition Mobility
With Live Partition Mobility you can migrate an AIX or Linux partition running on one POWER7 or POWER7+ system to another POWER6 , POWER7 , or POWER7+ system without disrupting services. Also, IBM i and Linux partitions on Power 770 and Power 780 systems are enabled to migrate to another Power 770 or Power 780 system without disrupting services. The migration transfers the entire system environment, including processor state, memory, attached virtual devices, and connected users. It provides continuous operating system and application availability during planned partition outages for repair of hardware and firmware faults, or continuous availability during a concurrent repair that requires freeing up CEC resources.

General requirements
The product is in compliance with IBM Corporate Bulletin C-B 0-2594-000 Statement of Conformity of IBM Product to External Standard (Suppliers Declaration).
Hardware requirements
The 9179-MHD can be installed in a 7014-T00 or 7014-T42 rack that provides:
- Proper dimensions
- Mounting surfaces
- Power distribution
- Ventilation
- Stability
- Other functional requirements
The design of the Power 780 is optimized for use in an IBM 7014-T00 or 7014-T42 rack. Both the 7014 front cover and the external processor fabric cables occupy space on the front left and right sides of an IBM 7014 rack and may not be available in non-IBM racks. If loading two or more CEC enclosures in a 7014-T42 rack, the CEC enclosures need to be loaded in 36U or below to allow space for the flex cables.
Minimum system configuration
Each new model MHD system must include a minimum of the following items:
- One CEC enclosure (4U) with the following:
- 1X System Enclosure with IBM Bezel (#EB95) or OEM Bezel (#EB96)
- 1X Service Processor-2 (#EU09)
- 1X DASD Backplane (#5652)
- 2X Power Cords (two selected by client)
- 2X AC Power Supply (#5532)
- 1X Operator Panel (#EC53)
- 1X Integrated Multifunction Card (one of these):
- Quad 2 X 1 GB and 2 X 10 GB Optical (#1769)
- Quad 2 X 1 GB and 2 X 10 GB Copper (#1768)
Note: The Integrated Multifunction Card is not natively supported by IBM i.
- 1X Primary operating system (one of these):
- AIX (#2146)
- Linux (#2147)
- IBM i (#2145)
- 1X Processor card (one of these):
- 3.72 GHz, 32-core POWER7+ Processor card, 0-core active (#EPH2)
- 4.42 GHz, 16-core POWER7+ Processor card, 0-core active (#EPH0)
- 4X Processor Activations (quantity of four for one of these):
- One Processor Activation for Processor Feature EPH2 (#EPHC)
- One Processor Activation for Processor Feature EPH0 (#EPHA)
- The first two DIMM slots of must be 2 identical memory feature codes.
- 2X DDR3 memory DIMMs: 0/32 GB (4 X 8 GB), 1066 MHz, (#EM40 or larger). These must be identical memory features.
- 32X GB memory activation of 1 GB DDR3 - POWER7+ Memory (#EMA2).
- For AIX and Linux , 1X disk drive and for IBM i 2X disk drive: Formatted to match the system Primary O/S indicator selected, or if using a Fibre Channel attached SAN (indicated by #0837) a disk drive is not required.
- 1X Language Group (selected by the client).
- 1X Removable Media Device (#5762): Optionally orderable, a stand-alone system (not network-attached) would require this feature.
- 1X HMC is required for every 9179-MHD; however, a communal HMC is acceptable.
Notes :
- Additional optional features can be added, as desired.
- Feature-coded racks are allowed for I/O expansion only.
- A machine type/model rack, if desired, should be ordered as the primary rack.
- A minimum number of four processor activations must be ordered per system.
- The minimum activations ordered with all initial orders of memory features EM40, EM41, EM42, and EM44 must be 50% of their installed capacity.
- The minimum activations ordered with MES orders of memory features EM40, EM41, EM42, and EM44 will depend on the total installed capacity of features EM40, EM41, EM42, and EM44. This allows newly ordered memory to be purchased with less than 50% activations when the currently installed capacity exceeds 50% of the existing features EM40, EM41, EM42, and EM44
- The minimum activations installed for all memory including features 5600, 5601, 5602, and 5564 must be 50% of their installed capacity.
- Memory activations are distributed equally across all memory features by the same activation features EMA2 (1 GB) or EMA3 (100 GB).
Hardware Management Console (HMC) Machine Code
If attaching an HMC to a new server or adding function to an existing server that requires a firmware update, the HMC machine code may need to be updated.
To determine the HMC machine code level required for the firmware level on any server, go to the following website to access the Fix Level Recommendation Tool (FLRT) on or after the planned availability date for this product. FLRT will identify the correct HMC machine code for the selected system firmware level.
If a single HMC is attached to multiple servers, the HMC machine code level must be updated to the server with the most recent firmware level. All prior levels of server firmware are supported with the latest HMC machine code level.
An HMC is required to manage POWER7+ processor-based servers implementing partitioning. Multiple POWER7+ processor-based servers can be supported by a single HMC.
If an HMC is used to manage any POWER7+ processor-based server, the HMC must be a CR3, or later, model rack-mount HMC or C05, or later, deskside HMC.
When IBM Systems Director is used to manage an HMC or if the HMC manages more than 254 partitions, the HMC should have 3 GB of RAM minimum and be CR3 model, or later, rack-mount or C06, or later, deskside.

| IBM Electronic Services |
|
IBM has transformed its delivery of hardware and software support services to help you achieve higher system availability. Electronic Services is a Web-enabled solution that offers an exclusive, no-additional-charge enhancement to the service and support available for IBM servers. These services are designed to provide the opportunity for greater system availability with faster problem resolution and preemptive monitoring. Electronic Services comprises two separate, but complementary, elements: Electronic Services news page and Electronic Services Agent.
The Electronic Services news page is a single Internet entry point that replaces the multiple entry points traditionally used to access IBM Internet services and support. The news page enables you to gain easier access to IBM resources for assistance in resolving technical problems.
The Electronic Service Agent is no-additional-charge software that resides on your server. It monitors events and transmits system inventory information to IBM on a periodic, client-defined timetable. The Electronic Service Agent automatically reports hardware problems to IBM . Early knowledge about potential problems enables IBM to deliver proactive service that may result in higher system availability and performance. In addition, information collected through the Service Agent is made available to IBM service support representatives when they help answer your questions or diagnose problems. Installation and use of IBM Electronic Service Agent for problem reporting enables IBM to provide better support and service for your IBM server.

Financing Power Systems solutions from IBM Global Financing can help you acquire more from existing budgets while helping you conserve cash, and provide a comprehensive end-to-end multivendor IT financing solution. This end-to-end approach helps form the foundation of a cohesive technology management strategy that can be superior to ownership. IBM can help reduce costs compared to purchase, increase ROI, lower total cost of ownership, minimize risk, improve accountability, and enable you to focus on your core business strategies while giving you the ability to make flexible equipment decisions throughout the entire technology life cycle.
Through the IBM Project Financing™ program, credit-qualified customers can obtain funding to design and build your entire IT infrastructure, aligning up-front costs to expected project benefits. This could include financing for select facility design and construction, building and structural upgrades, infrastructure equipment, IT hardware, software, services, and consulting. Through our Global Asset Recovery Services' buyback program you can obtain cash for marketable IT assets and dispose of nonmarketable assets in a way that complies with environmental laws and regulations.
In addition for certain mid-range and high-end systems, customers leasing their Power Systems can upgrade to new technology at mid-lease for little or no change in their existing monthly payment. IBM offers options for clients to perform either in-place upgrades or side-by-side, nondisruptive migrations ( IBM Power Exchange) to the latest POWER technology.
