Abstract | The IBM eServer xSeries 450 is IBM’s new 64-bit Itanium
Processor Family (IPF) Architecture server and is the first
implementation of the 64-bit IBM XA-64 chipset, as part of the
Enterprise X-Architecture strategy. This IBM Redbooks publication
is a comprehensive resource on the technical aspects of the server,
and is divided into five key subject areas:Chapter 1, Technical description introduces the server and its
subsystems and describes the key features and how they work. This
includes the new Extensible Firmware Interface, which provides a
powerful replacement to the BIOS facility found on the IA-32
platform.Chapter 2, Positioning examines the types of applications that
would be used on a server such as the x450.Chapter 3, Planning describes the considerations when planning
to purchase and planning to install the x450. It covers such topics
as configuration, operating system specifics, scalability, and
physical site planning.Chapter 4, Installation covers the process of installing Windows
Server 2003, Enterprise Edition and SuSE Linux Enterprise Server on
the x450.Chapter 5, Management describes how to use the Remote Supervisor
Adapter to send alerts to an IBM Director management
environment. |
