Description
The IBM BladeCenter HS23 offers high performance balanced with flexible, scalable configuration options and simple management in an efficient server designed to run a broad range of workloads exceptionally well.
Versatile:
- A feature-rich design enables the HS23 to run a broad range of workloads, including infrastructure, virtualization, and enterprise applications. This makes it ideal for cloud computing;
- Integrated 10GbE Virtual Fabric allows for more scalable I/O solutions;
- An extensive choice of processors, memory, internal storage, and I/O options allows flexible configurations.
Easy to use:
- Simplify deployment of infrastructure for faster time-to-value with IBM FastSetup;
- Two hot-swap storage bays support SAS and SATA (which includes solid-state) drives, enabling drives to be removed easily for quick replacement;
- An optional embedded hypervisor helps enable "instant virtualization";
- The Integrated Management Module provides remote supervision and cKVM functions as standard;
- Light path diagnostics and Predictive Failure Analysis help enable quick serviceability and maintenance.
Performance optimized:
- Next-generation Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 product family;
- High memory capacity with 16 DDR3 VLP memory DIMM slots supporting 1600 MHz memory and up to 256 GB of DDR3 memory;
- High-speed I/O on the blade with integrated 10GbE Virtual Fabric;
- Support for running two DIMMs per memory channel at 1600 MHz;
- Optional low-power processor, solid-state drives, and low-power memory DIMMs;
- Energy-efficient 1.35 volt memory DIMM support;
- Support for IBM Systems Director Active Energy Manager to help monitor and cap power consumption;
- Innovative component layout and blade design to help keep the blade up and running even under demanding conditions.
