Overview |
The IBM Power System E880 with POWER8 system node uses 8-core symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) processor chips with 512 KB of L2 and 8 MB of L3 cache per core, DDR3 CDIMM memory, dual memory controllers, and an industry-standard Gen3 PCIe I/O bus designed to use 32 lanes organized in two sets of x16. The peak memory and I/O bandwidths per system node have increased over 300% compared to POWER7+ servers. The two primary system building blocks are one system control unit and one or more system nodes. Additional I/O support is provided with a 19-inch PCIe Gen3 I/O expansion drawer and an EXP24S SFF Gen2 expansion drawer. The processors, memory, and base I/O are packaged within the system nodes. The system nodes are rack based.
New POWER8 processor single chip modules (SCM) are provided in each system node. Processors are interconnected by two sets of system buses. Each SCM contains two memory controllers per processor module. Four 4.35 GHz 8-core SCMs are used in each system node, providing 32 cores (#EPBB). As few as eight cores in the system can be activated or up to 100% of the cores in the system can be activated. Incrementing one core at a time is available through built-in capacity on demand (CoD) functions to the full capacity of the system.
The Power E880 can have up to four system nodes per system. With 32-core nodes, the maximum is a 128-core system. In 2014, up to two system nodes per server are supported or a maximum of 64 cores.
The system control unit provides redundant system master clocks and redundant system master service processors (FSPs). Additionally, it contains the Operator Panel, the System VPD, and the Base DVD.
The 1600 MHz memory CDIMMs are available as 64 GB (#EM8J), 128 GB (#EM8K), 256 GB (#EM8L), and 512 GB (#EM8M) memory features. Each memory feature provides four CDIMMs. CDIMMs are custom DIMMs that enhance memory performance and memory reliability. Each system node has 32 CDIMM slots that support a maximum of eight memory features. Using 512 GB CDIMM features yields a maximum of 4 TB per node. A two-node system has a maximum of 16 memory features and 8 TB. A four-node system has a maximum of 16 TB Capacity. Memory activations of 50% of the installed capacity are required.
The 19-inch PCIe Gen3 4U I/O Expansion Drawer (#EMX0) provides slots to hold PCIe adapters that cannot be placed into a system node. In 2014, either zero or two PCIe I/O expansion drawers can be attached per system node. Two PCIe I/O drawers provide 24 PCIe Gen3 adapter slots. Thus a two-node system has a maximum of 48 PCIe Gen3 slots in I/O drawers plus PCIe slots in the system node.
Direct attached storage is supported with the EXP24S SFF Gen2-bay Drawer (#5887), an expansion drawer with twenty-four 2.5-inch form-factor SAS bays.
As part of the IBM commitment to delivering the most flexible and resilient Power high-end systems, all initial shipments of Power E880 systems come with a specific number of no-charge elastic processor and memory days. The number of days depends on the configuration of the system. For every new Power E880, 15 elastic CoD processor days for every processor core (inactive or active) installed on the system and 240 GB of elastic CoD memory days for every processor core (inactive or active) are included. These elastic CoD processor and memory days must be used in accordance with the temporary capacity on demand terms and conditions. Also available are 90-day temporary elastic 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 elastic enablement feature number.
With Power Enterprise Pools, IBM continues to enhance the ability to freely move processor and memory activations from one system to another system in the same pool, without the need for IBM involvement. This capability now allows the movement of resources not only between like systems, but also between generations of Power Systems, and thus delivers unsurpassed flexibility for workload balancing and system maintenance. Power Enterprise Pools deliver the support to meet clients' business goals when it comes to the following:
- Providing organizations with a dynamic infrastructure, reduced cost of performance management, improved service levels, and controlled risk management
- Improving the flexibility, load balancing, and disaster recovery planning and operations of your Power Systems infrastructure
- Enhanced reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS) to handle the requirements to accommodate a global economy
Power Enterprise Pools mobile activations are available for use on the Power 770, 780, and 795 systems and now on the Power E870 and E880 systems. Two types of Power Enterprise Pools can be created: a mid-range pool that can consist of Power 770s (9117-MMD) and Power E870s (9119-MME) and High End Pools that consist of Power 780s (9179-MHD), Power 795s (9119-FHB), and Power E880s (9119-MHE).

- Each Gen3 I/O drawer holds two 6-slot PCIe3 Fan-out Modules (#EMXF)
- Each Gen3 I/O drawer attaches to the system node through two PCIe3 Optical Cable Adapters (#EJ07)
Processor cores and memory
- Each system must have a minimum of eight active processor cores. Each processor feature (#EPBB) will deliver a set of four identical single chip modules (SCMs). All processor features in the system must be identical.
- Cable features are required to connect system node drawers to the system control unit and to other system nodes.
- For a single system node configuration, feature ECCA is required.
- For a dual system node configuration, features ECCA and ECCB are required.
- Each system node drawer has 32 memory CDIMM slots holding up to eight DDR3 memory features.
- Each system node drawer must have a minimum of four memory features or 16 DDR3 CDIMMs. Select from features EM8J (64 GB), EM8K (128 GB), EM8L (256 GB), or EM8M (512 GB) (four CDIMMs per feature).
- The minimum activations ordered with all initial orders of memory features EM8J, EM8K, and EM8L must be 50% of their installed capacity.
- The minimum activations ordered with MES orders of memory features EM8J, EM8K, EM8L, and EM8M will depend on the total installed capacity of features EM8J, EM8K, EM8L, and EM8M. This enables you to purchase newly ordered memory with less than 50% activations when the currently installed capacity exceeds 50% of the existing features EM8J, EM8K, EM8L, and EM8M capacity.
- The minimum activations installed for all memory must be 50% of their installed capacity.
- DDR3 memory features EM8J, EM8K, and EM8L can be mixed on the same POWER8 system node drawer. If placing two memory features on the same SCM, they must be identical.
- It is recommended that memory be installed evenly across all system node drawers and all SCMs in the system. Balancing memory across the installed system planar cards allows memory access in a consistent manner and typically results in better performance for your configuration.
- Though maximum memory bandwidth is achieved by filling up all the memory slots, plans for future memory additions should be taken into account when deciding which memory feature size to use at the time of initial system order.
System node PCIe slots
- Each Power E880 system node enclosure provides excellent configuration flexibility and expandability with eight half-length, half-high (low profile) x16 PCIe Gen3 slots. The slots are labeled C1 through C8.
- These PCIe slots can be used for either low-profile PCIe adapters or for attaching a PCIe I/O drawer.
- A new form factor blind swap cassette (BSC) is used to house the low-profile adapters that go into these slots. The server is shipped with a full set of BSC, even if the BSC is empty. A feature code to order additional low-profile BSC is not required or announced.
- If additional Gen3 PCIe slots beyond the system node slots are required, a system node x16 slot is used to attach a six-slot expansion module in the I/O drawer. An I/O drawer holds two expansion modules that are attached to any two x16 PCIe slots in the same system node or in different system nodes.
- PCIe Gen1, Gen2, and Gen3 adapter cards are supported in these Gen3 slots. The set of PCIe adapters that are supported is found in the Sales Manual, identified by feature code number.
- Concurrent repair and add/removal of PCIe adapter cards is done by HMC guided menus or by operating system support utilities.
- The system nodes sense which IBM PCIe adapters are installed in their PCIe slots; and if an adapter requires higher levels of cooling, they automatically speed up the fans to increase airflow across the PCIe adapters.
- Each system node supports up to four CAPI adapters, which can be located in slots C2, C4, C6, or C8.
PCIe Gen3 I/O Expansion Drawer
- The 19-inch 4 EIA (4U) PCIe Gen3 I/O Expansion Drawer (#EMX0) and two PCIe FanOut Modules (#EMXF) provide 12 PCIe I/O full-length, full-height slots. One FanOut Module provides six PCIe slots labeled C1 through C6. C1 and C4 are x16 slots and C2, C3, C5, and C6 are x8 slots.
- PCIe Gen1, Gen2, and Gen3 full-high adapter cards are supported. The set of full-high PCIe adapters that are supported is found in the Sales Manual, identified by feature code number. See the PCI Adapter Placement manual for the 9119-MHE or 9119-MME for details and rules associated with specific adapters supported and their supported placement in x8 or x16 slots.
- A PCIe X16 to Optical CXP converter adapter (#EJ07) and 2.0 M (#ECC6) or 10.0 M (#ECC8) CXP 16X Active Optical cables (AOC) connect the system node to a PCIe FanOut module in the I/O expansion drawer. One feature ECC6 or one ECC8 ships two AOC cables from IBM.
- The two AOC cables connect to two CXP ports on the fan-out module and to two CXP ports on the EJ07 adapter. The top port of the fan-out module must be cabled to the top port of the EJ07 port. Likewise, the bottom two ports must be cabled together.
- It is recommended but not required that one I/O drawer be attached to two different system nodes in the same server (one drawer module attached to one system node and the other drawer module attached to a different system node). This can help provide cabling for higher availability configurations.
- It is recommended that any attached PCIe Gen3 I/O Expansion Drawer be located in the same rack as the POWER8 server for ease of service, but they can be installed in separate racks if the application or other rack content requires it.
- Concurrent repair and add/removal of PCIe adapter cards is done by HMC guided menus or by operating system support utilities.
- A blind swap cassette (BSC) is used to house the full-high adapters that go into these slots. The BSC is the same BSC as used with the previous generation server's 12X attached I/O drawers (#5802, #5803, #5877, #5873). The drawer is shipped with a full set of BSC, even if the BSC is empty. A feature code to order additional full-high BSC is not required or announced.
EXP24S Disk/SSD Drawer
- 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. The EXP24S supports up to 24 hot-swap SFF-2 SAS hard disk drives (HDDs) or solid-state drives (SSDs). It uses only 2 EIA of space in a 19-inch rack. The EXP24S includes redundant ac power supplies and uses two power cords.
- 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). Mode setting is done by IBM Manufacturing and there is no option provided to change the mode after it is shipped from IBM.
- The EXP24S SAS ports are attached to a SAS PCIe adapter or pair of adapters using SAS YO or X cables.
- To maximize configuration flexibility and space utilization, the system node does not have integrated SAS bays or integrated SAS controllers. PCIe adapters and the EXP24S can be used to provide direct access storage.
- To further reduce possible single points of failure, EXP24S configuration rules consistent with previous Power Systems are used. IBM i configurations require the drives to be protected (RAID or mirroring). Protecting the drives is highly recommended, but not required for other operating systems. All Power operating system environments that are using SAS adapters with write cache require the cache to be protected by using pairs of adapters.
- It is recommended for SAS cabling ease that the EXP24S drawer be located in the same rack in which the PCIe adapter is located. Note, however, it is often a good availability practice to split a SAS adapter pair across two PCIe drawers/nodes for availability and that may make the SAS cabling ease recommendation difficult or impossible to implement.
- HDDs and SSDs that were previously located in POWER7® system units or in feature 5802 or 5803 12X-attached I/O drawers (SFF-1 bays) can be "re-trayed" and placed in EXP24S drawers. See feature conversions previously announced on the POWER7 servers. Ordering a conversion ships an SFF-2 tray or carriage onto which the client can place their existing drive after removing it from the existing SFF-1 tray/carriage. The order also changes the feature code so that IBM configuration tools can better understand what is required.
DVD 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 software such as AIX NIM server or Linux Install Manager configured to perform these functions.
- System boot is supported through three options:
- Disk or SSD located in an EXP24S drawer attached to a PCIe adapter
- A network through LAN adapters
- A SAN attached to Fibre Channel or FCoE adapters and indicated to the server by the 0837 specify code
- Assuming option 1 above, the minimum system configuration requires at least one SAS disk drive in the system for AIX and Linux and two for IBM i. If you are using option 3 above, a disk or SSD drive is not required.
- Each system control unit enclosure can have one slim-line bay that can support one DVD drive (#EU13). The feature EU13 DVD is cabled to a USB PCIe adapter located in either the system node or in a PCIe Gen3 I/O drawer. A USB to SATA converter is included in the configuration without a separate feature code.
- For IBM i, a DVD drive must be available on the server when required. The DVD can be in the system control unit or it can be located in an external enclosure such as a 7226-1U3 Multimedia drawer.
Racks
The Power E880 is designed to fit a standard 19-inch rack. IBM Development has tested and certified the system in the IBM Enterprise rack (7014-T42, 7014-T00, #0551, or #0553). The client can choose to place the server in other racks if they are confident those racks have the strength, rigidity, depth, and hole pattern characteristics that are needed. The client should work with IBM Service to determine other racks' appropriateness.
It is highly recommended that the Power E880 be ordered with an IBM 42U enterprise rack (7014-T42 or #0553). An initial system order is placed in a 7014-T42 rack. A same serial-number model upgrade MES is placed in a feature 0553 rack. This is done to ease and speed client installation, provide a more complete and higher quality environment for IBM Manufacturing system assembly and testing, and provide a more complete shipping package. The 7014-T42 or feature 0553 is a 2-meter enterprise rack, providing 42U or 42 EIA of space. Clients who don't want this rack can remove it from the order, and IBM Manufacturing will then remove the server from the rack after testing and ship the server in separate packages without a rack. Use the factory-deracking code ER21 on the order to do this.
Additional E880 PCIe Gen3 I/O drawers (#EMX0) for an already installed server can be MES ordered with or without a rack. When clients want IBM Manufacturing to place these MES I/O drawers into a rack and ship them together (factory integration), then the racks should be ordered as feature codes on the same order as the I/O drawers. Use feature 0553 (42U enterprise rack) for this order.
Three rack front door options are supported with Power E880 system nodes for the 42U enterprise rack (7014-T42 or #0553), the acoustic door (#6249), the attractive geometrically accented door (#ERG7) and the cost-effective plain front door (#6069). The front trim kit is also supported (#6272). The Power 880 logo rack door (#6250) is not supported.
It is strongly recommended that the bottom 2U of the rack be left open for cable management when below-floor cabling is used. Likewise, if overhead cabling is used, it is strongly recommended the top 2U be left open for cable management. If clients are using both overhead and below-floor cabling, leaving 2U open on both the top and bottom of the rack is a good practice. Rack configurations placing equipment in these 2U locations can be more difficult to service if there are a lot of cables running by them in the rack.
The system node and system control unit must be immediately physically adjacent to each other in a contiguous space. The cables connecting the system control unit and the system node are built to very specific lengths. In a two-node configuration, system node 1 is on top, and then the system control unit in the middle and system node 2 is on the bottom. Use specify feature ER16 to reserve 5U space in the rack for a future system node and avoid the work of shifting equipment in the rack in the future. On a four-node configuration system node 4 is on the top, then node 1 is below it, then the system control unit, then node 2 and finally node 3 is on the bottom.
With the 2 meter 7014-T42 or feature 0553, a rear rack extension of 8 inches or 20.3 cm (#ERG0) provides space to hold cables on the side of the rack and keep the center area clear for cooling and service access. Including this extension is very, very strongly recommended where large numbers of thicker I/O cables are present or may be added in the future. The definition of a "large number" depends on the type of I/O cables used. Probably around 64 short-length SAS cables per side of a rack or around 50 longer-length (thicker) SAS cables per side of a rack is a good rule of thumb. Generally, other I/O cables are thinner and easier to fit in the sides of the rack and the number of cables can be higher. SAS cables are most commonly found with multiple EXP24S SAS drawers (#5887) driven by multiple PCIe SAS adapters. For this reason, it can be a very good practice to keep multiple EXP24S drawers in the same rack as the PCIe Gen3 I/O drawer or in a separate rack close to the PCIe Gen3 I/O drawer, using shorter, thinner SAS cables. The feature ERG0 extension can be good to use even with a smaller numbers of cables as it enhances the ease of cable management with the extra space it provides.
Multiple service personnel are required to manually remove or insert a system node drawer into a rack, given its dimensions and weight and content. To avoid any delay in service it is very strongly recommended that the client obtain an optional lift tool (#EB2Z). One EB2Z lift tool can be shared among many servers and I/O drawers. The EB2Z lift tool provides a hand crank to lift and position up to 159 kg (350 lb). The EB2Z lift tool is 1.12 meters x 0.62 meters (44 in. x 24.5 in.). Note that a single system node can weigh up to 75.7 kg (167 lb).
System node power
- Four ac power supplies provide 2 + 2 redundant power for enhanced system availability. A system node is designed to continue functioning with just two working power supplies. A failed power supply can be hot swapped but must remain in the system until the replacement power supply is available for exchange.
- Four ac power cords are used for each system node (one per power supply) and are ordered using the AC Power Chunnel feature (#EBAA). The chunnel carries power from the rear of the system node to the hot swap power supplies located in the front of the system node where they are more accessible for service.
System control unit power
- The system control unit is powered from the system nodes. UPIC cables provide redundant power to the system control unit. Two UPIC cables attach to system node drawer 1 and two UPIC cables attach to system node drawer 2. They are ordered with features ECCA and ECCB. Just one UPIC cord is enough to power the system control unit and the rest are in place for redundancy.
Power distribution units (PDU)
- The Power E880 server factory integrated into an IBM rack uses horizontal PDUs located in the EIA drawer space of the rack instead of the typical vertical PDUs found in the side pockets of a rack. This is done to aid cable routing. Each horizontal PDU occupies 1U. Vertically mounting the PDUs to save rack space can cause cable routing challenges and interfere with optimal service access.
- When mounting the horizontal PDUs, it is a good practice to place them almost at the top or almost at the bottom of the rack, leaving 2U or more of space at the very top or very bottom of the open for cable management. Mounting a horizontal PDU in the middle of the rack is generally not optimal for cable management.
- Two possible PDU ratings are supported: 60A/63A (orderable in most countries) and 30A/32A.
- The 60A/63A PDU supports four system node power supplies and one I/O expansion drawer or eight I/O expansion drawers.
- The 30A/32A PDU supports two system node power supplies and one I/O expansion drawer or four I/O expansion drawers.
- Rack-integrated system orders require two of either feature 7109 or 7188.
- Feature 7109 -- Intelligent PDU with Universal UTG0247 Connector is for an intelligent ac power distribution unit (PDU+) that will allow the user to monitor the amount of power being used by the devices that are plugged in to this PDU+. This ac power distribution unit provides twelve C13 power outlets. It receives power through a UTG0247 connector. It can be used for many different countries and applications by varying the PDU to Wall Power Cord, which must be ordered separately. Each PDU requires one PDU to Wall Power Cord. Supported power cords include the following features: 6489, 6491, 6492, 6653, 6654, 6655, 6656, 6657, and 6658.
- Feature 7188 -- Power Distribution Unit mounts in a 19-inch rack and provides twelve C13 power outlets. Feature 7188 has six 16A circuit breakers, with two power outlets per circuit breaker. System units and expansion units must use a power cord with a C14 plug to connect to the feature 7188. One of the following line cords must be used to distribute power from a wall outlet to the feature 7188: feature 6489, 6491, 6492, 6653, 6654, 6655, 6656, 6657, or 6658.
Hot-plug options
The following options are hot-plug capable:
- PCIe I/O adapters.
- System node ac power supplies: Two functional power supplies must remain installed at all times while the system is operating.
- System node fans.
- System control unit fans.
- System control unit Op Panel.
- System control unit DVD drive.
- UPIC power cables from system node to system control unit.
If the system boot device or system console is attached using an I/O adapter feature, that adapter may not be hot-plugged if a nonredundant topology has been implemented.
You can access hot-plug procedures in the product documentation at
PowerVM
PowerVM Enterprise virtualization is built into the Power E880 system and provides the complete set of PowerVM virtualization functionality needed for Power enterprise servers with POWER8 technology. This enables efficient resource sharing through virtualization, which allows workload consolidation and secure workload isolation as well as the flexibility to redeploy resources dynamically.
Other PowerVM technologies include the following:
- Migrate from older generation Power servers to the Power E880 system.
- System Planning Tool simplifies the process of planning and deploying Power Systems LPARs and virtual I/O.
- Virtual I/O Server (VIOS) is a single-function appliance that resides in an IBM Power processor-based partition. It facilitates the sharing of physical I/O resources between client partitions AIX, Linux, or IBM i within the server.
- With Live Partition Mobility, you can move a running AIX, Linux, or IBM i LPAR from one physical server to another with no downtime. Use this capability to do the following:
- 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 under-utilized machines so that they can be powered off to save on energy and cooling costs. Active Memory Sharing allows memory to be dynamically moved between running partitions for optimal resource usage.
- PowerVP Virtualization Performance monitor provides real-time monitoring of a virtualized system showing the mapping of VMs to physical hardware.
Note: Alternative configuration options are available on a special bid basis from your IBM representative or Business Partner.
Active Memory Expansion
Active Memory Expansion is an innovative POWER7, POWER7+, and POWER8 technology supporting the AIX operating system 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% or more. 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 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 on how compressible the memory content is. 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. Feedback from many POWER7 and POWER7+ clients using the function has been very positive.
POWER7+ and POWER8 chips include a hardware accelerator designed to boost Active Memory Expansion efficiency and use less POWER® core resource. The POWER8 accelerator includes some minor enhancements and also leverages POWER8 higher bandwidth and lower latency characteristics.
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. Once turned on, monitoring capabilities are available in standard AIX performance tools such as lparstat, vmstat, topas, and svmon.
A planning tool is included with AIX, allowing you to sample actual workloads and estimate both how expandable the partition's memory is and how much CPU resource is needed. Any Power Systems model can run the planning tool. In addition, a one-time, 60-day trial of Active Memory Expansion is available to enable more exact memory expansion and CPU measurements. You can request the trial using the Capacity on Demand web page
Active Memory Expansion is enabled by chargeable hardware feature EM82, which can be ordered with the initial order of the system node or as an MES order. A software key is provided when the enablement feature is ordered, which is applied to the system node. An IPL is not required to enable the system node. The key is specific to an individual system node 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 9119-MME or 9119-MHE 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 EPBA, the QPRCFEAT value for the system would be EPBA.
- The QPRCFEAT value does not change with the addition of system node enclosures.
Capacity backup offering (applies to IBM i only)
The Power System 880 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 as part of this CBU offering, but programs such as Power Enterprise Pools are available for the function.
The CBU specify feature number 4891 is available only as part of a new server purchase or during an MES upgrade from an existing system to a 9119-MHE. 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. A used system that has an existing CBU feature cannot be registered. The only way to attain a CBU feature that can be registered is with a plant order.
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 processor cores 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 E880 server can be any of the following:
- 9119-FHB
- 9119-MHE
- 9117-MMB
- 9117-MMC
- 9117-MMD
- 9179-MHB
- 9179-MHC
- 9179-MHD
These systems have IBM i software licenses with an IBM i P30 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. Note that if you are using software replication (versus PowerHA), you may well need more than a minimum of one entitlement on the CBU to support the replication workload.
For example, if you have a 64-core Power 780 as your primary system with twenty IBM i processor license entitlements (nineteen above the minimum) and two 5250 Enterprise Enablement entitlements (one above the minimum), you can temporarily transfer up to nineteen 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.

Power Enterprise Pools
Power Enterprise Pools provide a level of flexibility and value for systems that operate together as a pool of resources. Power Enterprise Pools mobile activations are available for use on the Power 770, 780, and 795 systems and now on the new Power E870 and E880 systems. They can be assigned to any system in a predefined pool by the user with simple HMC commands. IBM does not need to be notified when these resources are reassigned within a pool. The simplicity of operations offers new flexibility when managing large workloads in a pool of systems. This capability is especially appealing to aid in providing continuous application availability during maintenance windows. Not only can workloads easily move to alternate systems, but now the activations can move as well.
Now with the availability of the new Power E870 and E880 systems, IBM continues to enhance the ability to freely move processor and memory activations from one system to another system in the same pool, without the need for IBM involvement. This capability now allows the movement of resources not only between like systems but also between generations of Power Systems, and thus delivering unsurpassed flexibility for workload balancing and system maintenance.
Now, more than ever, Power Enterprise Pools delivers the support to meet client's business goals when it comes to the following:
- Providing organizations with a dynamic infrastructure, reduced cost of performance management, improved service levels, and controlled risk management
- Improving the flexibility, load balancing, and disaster recovery planning and operations of your Power Systems infrastructure
- Enhanced reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS) to handle the requirements to accommodate a global economy
Prerequisites for Power Enterprise Pools:
- All systems in a pool must be attached to the same HMC (or redundant set of HMCs).
- Systems must be one of the following models: 9117-MMD, 9179-MHD, 9119-FHB, 9119-MME, or 9119-MHE.
- Systems must be within one country.
Two types of pools are available. One that enables Power 770 (9117-MMD) or Power E870 (9119-MME) class systems to run in the same pool and the other that enables Power 780 (9179-MHD), Power 795 (9119-FHB), and Power E890 (9119-MHE) class systems to run in the same pool. Both pools allow both processor and memory activations to move between servers within the pool. Systems with different clock speeds are supported, co-existing within the same pool. All systems in the pool must be attached to the same HMC.
Power Systems users now have the satisfaction of knowing that as their requirements change, so can their systems. A simple movement of activations from one system to another helps users rebalance resources and respond to business needs. Maintenance windows now open up more easily as both workloads and activations move transparently across systems. Even disaster recovery planning becomes more manageable with the ability to move activations where and when they are needed. Power Enterprise Pools are just one more reason why enterprise class servers from Power Systems deliver value for your ever-changing business.
Mobile and static activations
A new, more flexible activation type is employed for Power Enterprise Pools. Historically, only "static" activations that could not move from server to server were available. These static activations remain available on the Power 770, 780, and 795, and are announced on the E870 and E880 and a certain number are required per server. But mobile activation features can be moved in the Power Enterprise Pool. Mobile activations apply to both processor core activations and memory activations.
The new Power E870 and E880 must have at least eight cores activated in static capability. All remaining processor core activations on these systems can optionally be mobile activations, be static activations, or be a mixture. Static and mobile core activations can co-reside in the same system and in the same partition.
A minimum of 50% of the memory on the system must be active. A maximum of 75% of all physically installed memory can have mobile activations. A minimum of 25% of all memory activations on a server must have static activations. Static and mobile memory activations can coreside in the same system and in the same partition. Mobile activation feature codes are in 100 GB increments.
Existing static activation features can be converted to mobile activations for memory and cores. To provide administrative and pricing advantages, there are "regular" static core activations and "mobile-enabled" static core activations. The price of a mobile-enabled core activation is priced the same as a mobile core activation. However, there is no-charge for converting a mobile-enabled activation to a mobile activation. This allows the client to avoid the additional conversion premium charge when converting an existing static core activation to a mobile core activation.
The new mobile activation features are as follows:
For the Power E870 and E880 100 GB Mobile Memory Activation (#EMA7) For the Power E870 and E880 100 GB Mobile Enabled Memory Activation (#EMA9) For the Power E870 1-core Mobile Activation for EPBA (#EPBJ) For the Power E870 1-core Mobile Activation for EPBC (#EPBL) For the Power E870 1-core Mobile-Enabled Activation for EPBA (#EPBN) For the Power E870 1-core Mobile-Enabled Activation for EPBC (#EPBQ) For the Power E880 1-core Mobile Activation for EPBC (#EPBK) For the Power E880 1-core Mobile-Enabled Activation for EPBB (#EPBP)
The Power Enterprise Pools mobile activation feature codes continue to exist for the Power 770, 780, and 795 servers and can co-exist in the same pool as the new Power E870 and E880 feature codes. The Power 770, 780, and 795 mobile activations feature codes are as follows:
For Power 770, 780, 795 100 GB Mobile Memory Activation (#EMA4) For Power 770 1-Core Mobile Activation (#EP22) For Power 770 1-core Mobile-enabled activation (#EPMC, #EPMD) For Power 780, 795 1-Core Mobile Activation (#EP23) For Power 780 1-core Mobile-enabled activation (#EPHL, #EPHM) For Power 795 1-core Mobile-enabled activation ( #4715, #4725)
Power Enterprise Pools and the HMC
Each Power Enterprise Pool is managed by a single master HMC. The HMC that was used to create a Power Enterprise Pool is set as the master HMC of that pool. After a Power Enterprise Pool is created, a redundant HMC can be configured as a backup. All Power Enterprise Pool resource assignments must be performed by the master HMC. When powering on or restarting a server, ensure that the server is connected to the master HMC. This ensures that the required Mobile CoD resources are assigned to the server.
The maximum number of systems in a Power Enterprise Pool is 32 high-end or 48 mid-range systems. An HMC can manage multiple Power Enterprise Pools but is limited to 1000 total partitions. The HMC can also manage systems that are not part of the Power Enterprise Pool. Powering down an HMC does not limit the assigned resources of participating systems in a pool but does limit the ability to perform pool change operations.
After a Power Enterprise Pool is created, the HMC can be used to perform the following functions:
- Mobile CoD processor and memory resources can be assigned to systems with inactive resources. Mobile CoD resources remain on the system to which they are assigned until they are removed from the system.
- New systems can be added to the pool and existing systems can be removed from the pool.
- New resources can be added to the pool or existing resources can be removed from the pool.
- Pool information can be viewed, including pool resource assignments, compliance, and history logs.
Power Enterprise Pools qualifying machines
To qualify for use of the Power Enterprise Pool offering, a participating system must be one of the following:
- IBM Power E880 with POWER8 processors, designated as 9119-MHE
- IBM Power E870 with POWER8 processors, designated as 9119-MME
- IBM Power 795 with POWER7 processors, designated as 9119-FHB
- IBM Power 780 with POWER7+ processors, designated as 9179-MHD
- IBM Power 770 with POWER7+ processors, designated as 9117-MMD
Each system must have installed Machine Code release level 7.8.0, or later, and be configured with at least the minimum amount of permanently active processor cores (listed below). Processor and memory activations that are enabled for movement within the pool will be in addition to these base minimum configurations.
Ordering Power Enterprise Pools
Ordering and enabling mobile activations for enterprise class systems is accomplished by following these steps:
- Complete and submit the Power Enterprise Pools contract and addendum (Z126-6228 and Z126-6229), specifying all system serial numbers to be included in the pool. To generate a pool ID number, send a copy to the Power Systems CoD Project Office at pcod@us.ibm.com. This IBM License Supplement for Power Enterprise Pools (Z126-6228) is required prior to ordering mobile resources but is only required once per client. The IBM License Supplement for Power Enterprise Pools Addendum (Z126-6229) is used to assign or remove systems to or from a pool.
- Order mobile enablement, processor, and memory activation features for participating systems. Every system in the pool must have feature EB35 as an identifier.
- Ensure all participating systems and controlling HMCs have the proper level of supporting software (eFW 7.8, or later, for systems; V7.8, or later, for HMCs)
- When the order is fulfilled, a configuration file will be generated that contains a Power Enterprise Pool membership activation code for each of the systems in the pool along with the mobile processor and memory activations. This file will be made available on the IBM COD website at
Download the client-specific configuration file with mobile activations to the controlling HMC for the pool. The file will work only for the specified system serial numbers. A new file will be generated when systems or mobile resources are added or removed from the pool.
Adding or removing systems from Power Enterprise Pools
Adding or removing a system from an established Power Enterprise Pool requires notification to IBM. An updated addendum must be submitted to the Power Systems CoD Project Office (pcod@us.ibm.com) to make this change. When the update is processed, a new pool configuration file will be posted on the CoD website and must be downloaded to the controlling HMC.
Before removal from a pool, all assets (including mobile resources) that were originally purchased with the system must be returned to that same system serial number. Mobile assets belonging to a system may qualify for transfer to another system serial number, depending on specific qualifying guidelines, and will require additional administrative action.
Systems removed from a pool can join another pool and contribute mobile activation resources to the new pool or use another system's mobile activation resources. Mobile activations require a pool ID to be recognized.
Capacity on demand
Several types of capacity on demand (CoD) processors are optionally available for the Power E880 system node. 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.
Elastic capacity on demand (elastic 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 E880 system node uses the IBM i operating system and the temporarily activated cores were used for IBM i partitions, you must inform the sales team placing the billing feature order which operating system caused the temporary elastic 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 E880:
Elastic CoD Elastic CoD Elastic CoD AIX/Linux IBM i processor processor processor Processor enablement billing billing Model feature feature feature feature MHE EPBB EP9T EPJC EPJD : 1 Proc-Day MHE EPBB EP9T EPJE EPJF : 100 Proc-Days Elastic CoD Elastic CoD memory memory Memory enablement billing Model feature feature feature MHE EM8J EM9T EMA5, EMA6 MHE EM8K EM9T EMA5, EMA6 MHE EM8L EM9T EMA5, EMA6 MHE EM8M EM9T EMA5, EMA6
Note: Feature EMA5 is for 1 GB Memory activation and feature EMA6 is for 100 of feature EMA5 Memory activations.
All initial shipments of Power E880 system nodes come with a specific number of no-charge elastic processor and memory days. The number of days depends on the configuration of the system. For every new Power E880, 15 elastic CoD processor days for every processor core (inactive or active) installed on the system and 240 GB of elastic CoD memory days for every processor core (inactive or active) are included. MES orders do not include the no-charge elastic processor and memory days.
The following features provide no-charge elastic processor and memory days:
- 48 Proc-Days of Elastic CoD Temporary Processor Resources (#EPJ3)
- 72 Proc-Days of Elastic CoD Temporary Processor Resources (#EPJ5)
- 384 GB-Days of Elastic CoD Memory Resources (#EMJ8)
- 576 GB-Days of On/Off CoD Temporary Memory Resources (#EMJ9)
The Elastic CoD process consists of three steps: enablement, activation, and billing
- Elastic CoD enablement: Description
Before requesting temporary capacity on a server, you must "enable" it for elastic 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 that have not been permanently activated. For example, if you have 20 processor cores that 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 gigabytes of memory that have not been permanently activated. For example, if you had 100 GB of memory that was not permanently activated, the memory enablement code allows up to 9000 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 an MES delete order, deleting the current enablement code installed in the server configuration file.
Elastic 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 Elastic Capacity On Demand
- IBM Business Partner Agreement for Solution Providers -- Attachment for Elastic Capacity On Demand
- IBM Business Partner Agreement -- Attachment for Elastic 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 elastic 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 Elastic Capacity On Demand; IBM Supplement for On/Off Capacity On Demand
- Optional: IBM Addendum for Elastic 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 system node.
- Elastic activation requests: Description
When Elastic CoD temporary capacity is needed, simply use the HMC menu for elastic 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 processor days not returned (per the contract you signed).
Elastic CoD activation requests: Step-by-step
When you need temporary capacity, use the Elastic 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.
- Elastic CoD billing: Description
The contract, signed by the client before receiving the enablement feature, requires the elastic 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 (using the appropriate billing features EPJ3, EPJ5, EPJC, EPJD, EPJE, EPJF, EPJQ, EPJR, EPJS, or EPJT for each billable processor and memory day reported less any outstanding credit balance of processor and memory days).
Elastic 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 by 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 system node's shared processor pool, which then becomes available to the pool's resource manager. When the system node 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 Enterprise Edition to be active on the 9119-MHE.
If a Power E880 system node uses the IBM i operating system and the temporarily activated cores were used for IBM i partitions, 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.

Reliability, Availability, and Serviceability |
Reliability, fault tolerance, and data correction
The reliability of systems starts with components, devices, and subsystems that are designed to be highly reliable. 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 the highest level of product quality.
Redundant infrastructure
Considerable redundancy in the infrastructure of these systems is included so as to avoid failing components leading to system outages.
Such components include power supplies, fans, processor and memory voltage regulation outputs, global service processors, and processor clocks.
All of these redundant elements are present, even in single-system node systems.
Processor and memory availability functions
The Power Systems family continues to offer and introduce significant enhancements designed to increase system availability.
POWER8 processor functions
As previously provided in POWER7 and POWER7+, the POWER8 processor has the ability to do processor instruction retry for some transient errors 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. When such an error is encountered in the core, the POWER8 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.
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. As POWER7/POWER7+ technology, processors have the ability to extract the failing instruction from the faulty core and retry it elsewhere in the system for a number of faults, after which the failing core is dynamically deconfigured and called out for replacement in the PowerVM environment. These features are designed to avoid a full system outage.
As in POWER7/POWER7+, the POWER8 processor includes single processor check stopping 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.
Partition availability priority
Also available is the ability to assign availability priorities to partitions. In the PowerVM environment, if an alternate processor recovery event requires spare processor resources in order to protect a workload, when no other means of obtaining the spare resources is available, the system will determine which partition has the lowest priority and attempt to claim the needed resource. On a properly configured POWER8 processor-based server, this allows that capacity to be first obtained from, for example, a test partition instead of a financial accounting system.
Cache availability
The L2 and L3 caches in the POWER8 processor and L4 cache in the memory buffer chip are protected with double-bit detect, single-bit correct error detection code (ECC). In addition, a threshold of correctable errors detected on cache lines can result in the data in the cache lines being purged and the cache lines removed from further operation without requiring a reboot in the PowerVM environment. In addition, the L2 and L3 caches have the ability to dynamically substitute a spare bit-line for a faulty bit-lane, allowing an entire faulty "column" of cache, impacting multiple cache lines, to be repaired. An ECC uncorrectable error detected in these caches can also trigger a purge and delete of cache lines. This results in no loss of operation if the cache lines 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 errors and a cache set delete mechanism for handling solid failures.
Special Uncorrectable Error handling
Special Uncorrectable Error (SUE) handling is designed to prevent 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 check stop. If the data is used, termination may be limited to the program/kernel or hypervisor owning the data; or the I/O adapters controlled by an I/O hub controller would freeze if data were transferred to an I/O device.
Memory error correction and recovery
The memory has error detection and correction circuitry designed such that the failure of any one specific memory module within an ECC word by itself can be corrected absent any other fault.
In addition, a spare DRAM per rank on each memory port provides for dynamic DRAM device replacement during runtime operation. Also, dynamic lane sparing on the DMI link allows for repair of a faulty data lane.
Other memory protection features include retry capabilities for certain faults detected at both the memory controller and the memory buffer. Memory is also periodically scrubbed to allow for soft errors to be corrected and for solid single-cell errors reported to the hypervisor, which supports operating system deallocation of a page associated with a hard single-cell fault.
Active memory mirroring for the hypervisor
The POWER8 memory subsystem is capable of mirroring sections of memory by writing to two different memory locations, and when an error is detected when reading from one location, taking data from the alternate location. This is used by the POWER hypervisor in these systems to mirror critical memory within the hypervisor so that a fault, even a solid uncorrectable error in the data, can be tolerated using the mirrored memory.
Dynamic processor and memory deallocation
When correctable solid faults occur in components of the processor and memory subsystem, the system will attempt to correct the problem by using spare capacity in the failing component, using a spare column in an L2 or L3 cache, for example, a spare data line in a memory or processor bus, or a spare DRAM in memory. Use of such spare capacity restores the system to full functionality without the need to take a repair action.
When such spare capacity is not available, the service processor and POWER hypervisor may request deallocation of the component experiencing the fault. When there are sufficient resources to continue running partitions at requested capacity, the system will continue to do so. This includes taking advantage of unlicensed capacity update on demand processor and memory resources as well as licensed but unallocated resources.
When such unlicensed or unused capacity is used in this manner, a request for service will be made.
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 will examine the affected bus, allow the device driver to reset it, and continue 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.
Mutual surveillance
The service processor monitors the operation of the firmware during the boot process and also monitors the hypervisor for termination. The hypervisor monitors the service processor and reports the service reference code when it detects surveillance loss. In the PowerVM environment, it will perform a reset/reload if it detects the loss of the service processor.
Environmental monitoring functions
The Power Systems family does ambient and over temperature monitoring and reporting.
Uncorrectable error recovery
When the auto-restart option is enabled, the system can automatically restart following an unrecoverable software error, hardware failure, or environmentally induced (ac power) failure.
Serviceability
The purpose of serviceability is to efficiently repair the system while attempting to minimize or eliminate impact to system operation. Serviceability includes system installation, MES (system upgrades/downgrades), and system maintenance/repair. Depending upon the system and warranty contract, service may be performed by the customer, an IBM representative, or an authorized warranty service provider.
The serviceability features delivered in this system provide a highly efficient service environment by incorporating the following attributes:
- Design for SSR Set Up and Customer Installed Features (CIF).
- Detection and Fault Isolation (ED/FI).
- First Failure Data Capture (FFDC).
- Guiding Light service indicator architecture is used to control a system of integrated LEDs that lead the individual servicing the machine to the correct part as quickly as possible.
- Service labels, service cards, and service diagrams available on the system and delivered through the HMC.
- Step-by-step service procedures available through the HMC.
Service environment
The POWER8 processor-based system requires attachment to one or more HMCs.
The HMC is a dedicated server that provides functions for configuring and managing servers for either partitioned or 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.
The I/O device and adapter diagnostics consists of stand-alone diagnostics, which are loaded from the DVD-RAM drive and online diagnostics. Online diagnostics, when installed, are resident 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.
- Concurrent mode allows the normal system functions to continue while selected resources are being checked.
- Maintenance mode enables checking of devices and adapters.
Note: Because the 9119-MME and 9119-MHE systems have an optional DVD-RAM, 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 firmware 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 IBM Knowledge Center.
Service interface
The service interface allows support personnel to communicate with the service support applications in a server using a console, an interface, or a terminal. Delivering a clear, concise view of available service applications, the service interface allows the support team to manage system resources and service information in an efficient and effective way. Applications available through 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, hypervisor, and operating environment. The primary service interfaces are:
- Service Indicators
- Operator Panel
- Service Processor menu
- Operating system service menu
- Service Focal Point on the HMC
In the Guiding Light service indicator implementation, when a fault condition is detected on the POWER8 processor-based server, a blue Enclosure Fault LED will illuminate on the enclosure containing the failing part. 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 blue enclosure locate LED and down to the individual component to be serviced.
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 extending 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.
In the rare absence of FFDC and Error Data Analysis, diagnostics are required to re-create the failure and determine the failing items.
Diagnostics
General diagnostic objectives are to detect and identify problems so they can be resolved quickly. Elements of IBM's diagnostics strategy include:
- Provide a common error code format equivalent to a system reference code with PowerVM, system reference number, checkpoint, or firmware error code.
- Provide fault detection and problem isolation procedures. Support remote connection ability to be used by the IBM Remote Support Center or IBM Designated Service.
- Provide interactive intelligence within the diagnostics with detailed online failure information while connected to IBM's back-end system.
Automatic diagnostics
Because of the FFDC technology designed into IBM servers, it is not necessary to perform re-create diagnostics for failures or require user intervention. Solid and intermittent errors are designed to be correctly detected and isolated at the time the failure occurs. Runtime and boot-time diagnostics fall into this category.
Stand-alone diagnostics with PowerVM
As the name implies, stand-alone or user-initiated diagnostics requires user intervention. The user must perform manual steps, including:
- Booting from the diagnostics CD, DVD, USB, or network
- Interactively selecting steps from a list of choices
Concurrent maintenance
It is expected that the majority of the components that will fail will be able to be replaced using concurrent maintenance. These include power supplies, power cable, fans, op panel, real-time clock battery, and PCIe adapters.
The system also supports updating firmware with service packages, typically concurrently. The determination of whether a firmware release can be updated concurrently is identified in the readme information file that is released with the firmware.
Service labels
Service providers use these labels to assist them in performing maintenance actions. Service labels are found in various formats and positions and are intended to transmit readily available information to the servicer during the repair process. Following are some of these service labels and their purpose:
- Location diagrams: Location diagrams are located on the system hardware, relating information regarding the placement of hardware components.
Location diagrams may include location codes, drawings of physical locations, concurrent maintenance status, or other data pertinent to a repair. Location diagrams are especially useful when multiple components such as DIMMs, CPUs, processor books, fans, adapter cards, LEDs, and power supplies are installed.
- Remove/replace procedures: Service labels that contain remove/replace procedures are often found on a cover of the system or in other spots accessible to the servicer. These labels provide systematic procedures, including diagrams, detailing how to remove or replace certain serviceable hardware components.
- Arrows: Numbered arrows are used to indicate the order of operation and the serviceability direction of components. Some serviceable parts such as latches, levers, and touch points need to be pulled or pushed in a certain direction and in a certain order for the mechanical mechanisms to engage or disengage. Arrows generally improve the ease of serviceability.
Packing for service
The following service enhancements are included in the physical packaging of the systems to facilitate service:
- Color coding (touch points): Terracotta-colored touch points indicate that the system may not be required to be powered off to perform service to the FRU. This is dependent on system configuration and preparatory steps may be required before the service action is taken. Blue-colored touch points indicate that the procedure may require that the unit or system be shut down before servicing. This is dependent on system configuration, and preparatory steps may be required before the service action is taken.
- Tool-less design: Most FRUs support tool-less or simple tool designs. These designs require no tools or simple tools such as flathead screw drivers to service the hardware components.
- A lift tool may be required for certain installation and service situations (system backplane). The service and installation scenario should be reviewed during system installation planning.
- Positive retention: Positive retention mechanisms help to assure proper connections between hardware components such as cables to connectors, and between two cards that attach to each other. Without positive retention, hardware components run the risk of becoming loose during shipping or installation, preventing a good electrical connection. Positive retention mechanisms like latches, levers, thumb-screws, pop Nylatches (U-clips), and cables are included to help prevent loose connections and aid in installing (seating) parts correctly. These positive retention items do not require tools.
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, or if the system continues to operate, the error will be reported to the operating system. Hardware and software 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. The system has the ability to call home through OS to report platform recoverable errors and errors associated with PCI adapters/devices. When the information is logged in the SFP application, if the system is properly configured, a call home service request will be initiated and the pertinent failure data with service parts information and part locations will be sent to an IBM service organization. Customer contact information and specific system-related data such as the machine type, model, and serial number, along with the error log data related to the failure, are sent to IBM Service.
Live Partition Mobility
With Live Partition Mobility, users can migrate an AIX, Linux, or IBM i partition running on one POWER partition system to another POWER 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.
When initially purchasing a system, the client needs to consider the effect on the workloads that servicing the system will make. It is expected that most of the system FRUs that fail will be replaced while the system is still powered on, using Concurrent Maintenance. For the remainder of the FRUs, the entire system must be powered off to service the FRU. For customers with critical workloads, which cannot afford to be stopped, the use of Live Partition Mobility needs to be planned for when the initial purchase of the system is made.
Service processor
The service processor provides the capability to diagnose, check the status of, and sense 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.
Under PowerVM 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 processors menus (ASMI) can be accessed concurrently with system operation, allowing nondisruptive abilities to change system default parameters.
Call home
Call home refers to an automatic or manual call from a customer location to the IBM support structure with error log data, server status, or other service-related information. Call home invokes the service organization in order for the appropriate service action to begin. Call home can be done through the HMC. While configuring call home is optional, clients are encouraged to implement this feature in order to obtain service enhancements such as reduced problem determination and faster and potentially more accurate transmittal of error information. In general, using the call home feature can result in increased system availability. The Electronic Service Agent application can be configured for automated call home. Refer to the next section for specific details on this application.

More accurate reporting
Because 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 Services website.
The Electronic Services web portal is a single Internet entry point that replaces the multiple entry points traditionally used to access IBM Internet services and support. This web portal enables you to gain easier access to IBM resources for assistance in resolving technical problems. The newly improved My Systems and Premium Search functions make it even easier for Electronic Service Agent-enabled customers to track system inventory and find pertinent fixes.
My Systems provides valuable reports of installed hardware and software using information collected from the systems by IBM 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 Service Agent information that has been collected from the system, customers are able to see search results that apply specifically to their systems.

A SAS PCIe adapter such as feature EJ11 is required to attach a SATA DVD in the 7226.
- 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 eight processor activations must be ordered per system.
- A minimum of four memory features per system node is required.
- At least 50% of available memory must be activated through a combination of feature EMA5, EMA6, and EMA9.
- Memory sizes can differ across the four SCMs of the system node, but the eight CDIMM slots connected to the same SCM must be filled with identical CDIMMs (one or two identical memory features per SCM).
- If SAN Load Source Specify (#0837) is ordered, features 0040, 0041, 0043, 0047, and 0308 are not supported.
- The language group is auto-selected based on geographic rules.
- No feature codes are assigned for the following:
- Four ac power supplies are delivered as part of the system node. No features are assigned to power supplies. Four line cords are auto-selected according to geographic rules.
- Two default ac PDU to wall cables are included. No features are assigned. Cables are auto-selected according to geographic rules.
- There must be one system control unit on each system. The system control unit is considered the system with the system serial number.
- One HMC is required for every 9119-MHE; however, a communal HMC is acceptable. HMCs supported on POWER8 hardware are 7042-CR5 through 7042-CR8.
IBM factory rack integration:
The 9119-MHE requires integration in a 2.0 m rack, 42 EIA enterprise rack (7014-T42 or #0553), which provides:
- Proper dimensions
- Mounting surfaces
- Power distribution
- Ventilation
- Stability
- Other functional requirements
A single 7014-T42 rack can be ordered containing one or two Power E880 systems. Note that two four-node Power E880 will not fit in a single 42U rack and that care must be taken anytime ordering a pair of Power 880 servers in a rack to ensure there is space for horizontal PDUs, future system node additions and anything else the rack needs to contain. A customer can order one factory-integrated system node and later order an additional system node to be installed in the same rack at the client establishment. IBM factory-integrated orders of the 7014-T42 can be with standard rack doors (#ERG7 or #6069) or OEM doors. On initial order, if the rack contains a system node, the 7014-T42 machine/type 1 must be ordered. If a MES same-serial-number upgrade the 0553 feature 1 must be ordered.
- 1
- See also deracking feature ER21.
Only horizontal PDUs are used by IBM Manufacturing in racks hosting the 9119-MHE systems. Each PDU will occupy one EIA to aid cable routing.
Minimum requirements for the 7014-T42 rack integration:
Feature number Description ER10 x 1 Rack Content Specify first enclosure - 7 EIA or ER11 x 1 Rack Content Specify second enclosure - 12 EIA or ER12 x 1 Rack Content Specify third enclosure - 17 EIA or ER13 x 1 Rack Content Specify fourth enclosure - 22 EIA ER2B x 1 Rack Content Specify: Reserve 2U Rack Space at Bottom of Rack and/or ER2T x 1 Rack Content Specify: Reserve 2U Rack Space at Top of Rack ER14 x 2 Rack Content Specify 1U Horizontal PDU - 1 EIA ERG0 x 1 Rack Rear Extension (defaulted and recommended, but optional)
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 POWER8 processor-based system nodes implementing partitioning. Multiple POWER8 processor-based system nodes can be supported by a single HMC.
If an HMC is used to manage any POWER8 processor-based system node, the HMC must be 7042 -- CR5 through CR8 rack models or 7042 -- CR8 deskside model, or later.
When PowerVC is enabled, 4 GB of RAM is recommended. HMC 7042-CR5 ships with a default of 2 GB RAM.

- For those clients who want to run Java in AIX environments, refer to
- For Linux (including POWER Linux), visit
- For those clients who want to run Java in IBM i environments, read the following planning statements:
- Java 1.4.2 and Java 5 are not supported environments for IBM i 7.2.
- Java 1.4.2 and Java 5 while available for IBM i 7.1 are considered to be stabilized. Clients are strongly encouraged to move to a more current supported version: Java 6, Java 7, and Java 7.1.
Limitations
The 9119-MME and 9119-MHE have the following limitations:
- Memory rules and restrictions for the Power E880 (9119-MHE)
- The first (in plug order) 16 memory DIMM slots of each system node must always be populated to ensure each SCM has at least one memory feature. Using the same memory capacity feature (equal memory CDIMM sizes) can typically provide optimal memory performance, but is not required.
- Power VM Enterprise Edition is standard on 9119-MME and 9119-MHE. Enterprise Edition includes Active Memory Expansion (AME), Active Memory Deduplication, and Live Partition Mobility (LPM).
- Active Memory Mirroring is standard on the 9119-MHE.
- For same-serial-number upgrades, all features that are not supported on the 9119-MHE must be removed.
- Static memory activations can be converted during a D-model, same-serial-number upgrade, and mobile activations can be moved to POWER8 servers in a Power Systems Enterprise Pool.
- The system node or system control unit or PCIe3 I/O drawer does not provide a serial port to which a UPS communication cable can be attached for IBM i such as is available on smaller Power servers. Clients should use standard data center electrical power backup options used by many larger data centers.
- The PCIe Gen3 I/O Expansion Drawer has a few adapter plugging considerations

IBM Electronic Services |
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.

An IBM part or feature installed during the initial installation of an IBM machine is subject to a full warranty effective on the date of installation of the machine. An IBM part or feature that replaces a previously installed part or feature assumes the remainder of the warranty period for the replaced part or feature. An IBM part or feature added to a machine without replacing a previously installed part or feature is subject to a full warranty effective on its date of installation. Unless specified otherwise, the warranty period, type of warranty service, and service level of a part or feature are the same as those for the machine in which it is installed.
Warranty services
If required, IBM provides repair or exchange service depending on the types of warranty service specified for the machine. IBM will attempt to resolve your problem over the telephone, or electronically via an IBM Web site. Certain Machines contain remote support capabilities for direct problem reporting, remote problem determination, and resolution with IBM. You must follow the problem determination and resolution procedures that IBM specifies. Following problem determination, if IBM determines on-site service is required, scheduling of service will depend upon the time of your call, machine technology and redundancy, and availability of parts. If applicable to your product, parts considered Customer Replaceable Units (CRUs) will be provided as part of the machine's standard warranty service.
Service levels are response-time objectives and are not guaranteed. The specified level of warranty service may not be available in all worldwide locations. Additional charges may apply outside IBM's normal service area. Contact your local IBM representative or your reseller for country and location-specific information.
On-site Service
IBM will repair the failing machine at your location and verify its operation. You must provide a suitable working area to allow disassembly and reassembly of the IBM machine. The area must be clean, well-lit, and suitable for the purpose.
Service level is:
- 24 hours per day, 7 days a week, 4-hour average, same-day response.
Non-IBM parts service
IBM is now shipping machines with selected non-IBM parts that contain an IBM field replaceable unit (FRU) part number label. These parts are to be serviced during the IBM machine warranty period. IBM is covering the service on these selected non-IBM parts as an accommodation to their customers, and normal warranty service procedures for the IBM machine apply.
Warranty service upgrades
During the warranty period, warranty service upgrades provide an enhanced level of On-site Service for an additional charge. Service levels are response-time objectives and are not guaranteed. See the Warranty services section for additional details.

Non-IBM parts service
Under certain conditions, IBM provides services for selected non-IBM parts at no additional charge for machines that are covered under warranty service upgrades or maintenance services.
This service includes hardware problem determination (PD) on the non-IBM parts (for example, adapter cards, PCMCIA cards, disk drives, memory) installed within IBM machines and provides the labor to replace the failing parts at no additional charge.
If IBM has a Technical Service Agreement with the manufacturer of the failing part, or if the failing part is an accommodations part (a part with an IBM FRU label), IBM may also source and replace the failing part at no additional charge. For all other non-IBM parts, customers are responsible for sourcing the parts. Installation labor is provided at no additional charge, if the machine is covered under a warranty service upgrade or a maintenance service.

Licensed machine code
IBM Machine Code is licensed for use by a customer on the IBM machine for which it was provided by IBM under the terms and conditions of the IBM License Agreement for Machine Code, to enable the machine to function in accordance with its specifications, and only for the capacity authorized by IBM and acquired by the customer. You can obtain the agreement by contacting your IBM representative or visiting
Access to Machine Code updates is conditioned on entitlement and license validation in accordance with IBM policy and practice. IBM may verify entitlement through customer number, serial number, electronic restrictions, or any other means or methods employed by IBM in its discretion.
If the machine does not function as warranted and your problem can be resolved through your application of downloadable machine code, you are responsible for downloading and installing these designated Machine Code changes as IBM specifies. If you would prefer, you may request IBM to install downloadable machine code changes; however, you may be charged for that service.
Machine Code License Acceptance Requirement
Acceptance-By-Use Machine: No, the LIC license requires signed acceptance by the machine's end user directly with IBM, applicable to orders for a new machine, machine type conversion MES, and to machines transferred to another user.
