3 Robust UNIX servers with the latest SPARC TM processors and SPARC Enterprise harnesses the power of the latest SPARC processors, the /VII and UltraSPARC T1/T2/T2 Plus. Designed for the full-featured Solaris operating system, they create an optimum system solution by combining the latest hardware technology with the top share OS in the UNIX market. The /VII, a high-performance, super-reliable processor The UltraSPARC T1/T2/T2 Plus Performance, efficiency, and power economy /VII processors, used in SPARC Enterprise M3000, M4000, M5000, M8000 and M9000, boast the latest in Fujitsu s unique processor development technology. The /VII deliver both high reliability and high performance. That means each open platform not only has the continuity ensured by mainframe technology, but also the superior performance of multi-core/multithreading technology. Sun Microsystems UltraSPARC T1/T2/T2 Plus processors mean improved throughput performance and great savings in cost of ownership for your front-end servers. The maximum eight cores and 64 threads per chip, plus encryption and I/O, are ideal for high-density rack environments. The lean power architecture also saves on energy costs. Multi-core/multi-thread /VII are genuine multi-core/multi-thread processors with two and four cores per chip, respectively. With two threads per core, handles four and handles eight threads simultaneously. This provides good efficiency and dramatically improves overall system performance. Large cache memory /VII have large cache memory, max. 6MB per chip on both processors. Cache memory has broad processor throughput and is sharable across several cores for efficient allocation matched to each core s requirements; ensuring cache memory resources remain optimized. Acceleration technology /VII feature advanced technologies for increased performance including advanced parallel instruction operation, out-of-order execution and instruction branch prediction. They also provide broader bandwidths and high speed in processor data transfer, allowing fast and effective large cache access at up to 161GB/s (). /VII error management Record (history) Check (checker) Thorough overall processor protection Detach (dynamic degradation) Protect/ Correct (ECC/instruction retry) Clock speed: 2.15GHz/2.28GHz/2.4GHz Dual-core/Multi-thread Large cache Level1: 128KB (instruction) +128KB (data) /core Level2: Max. 6MB/ chip Micro architecture Super scalar (4 simultaneous instruction) Pipeline (7 tier configuration) 540 million transistors Data transfer:76gb/s Advanced data protection The /VII check for parity errors even in its process registers. This unique feature prevents errors in instruction operation from causing system failures and allows for hardware recovery via an instantaneous order retry function. The /VII also apply an ECC function to check address errors. ECC not only protects cache memory, but also chips and data, wherever they are in the processor. Dynamic degradation Your business has to run 24/365, so dynamic degradation for /VII automatically separates and then isolates defective processors without stopping the system. Dynamic degradation is also applied to cache memory. By degrading a defective cache in fine increments, operations are uninterrupted and your data stays protected. Clock speed: 2.4GHz/2.52GHz Quad-core/Multi-thread Large cache Level1: 64KB (instruction) +64KB (data) /core Level2: Max. 6MB/ chip Micro architecture Super scalar (4 simultaneous instruction) Pipeline (7 tier configuration) 600 million transistor Data transfer:max.161gb/s High throughput Best in class throughput performance is brought about by 32 threads with UltraSPARC T1, and 64 threads with UltraSPARC T2/T2 Plus. Dense multi-threading provides outstanding compute performance. This throughput focus and low cost architecture ensures resource efficiency for high-value consolidation. Separation of performance from power guzzling high clock speeds also underscores server use with a significantly lower carbon footprint., the global standard OS SPARC Enterprise stands out as the ideal platform for the Solaris Operating System, the global standard OS developed by Sun Microsystems. This makes it a vital driver for internet technology and Java based development as well as critical industry-standard applications. incorporates the most advanced features, including Solaris s for highly flexible virtualization, Predictive Self-healing for automatic correction of system faults and Dynamic Trace (DTrace) for easier diagnosis. System security is also certified to ISO/IEC15408, assuring total support for your system. Equally important, Solaris maintains binary level compatibility between different versions to ensure that valuable Solaris assets are always protected. Solaris s Up to 8,191 partitions, supplementing any hardware or firmware based partitioning, assist to safely consolidate servers and use resources more efficiently. Operation is as simple as adding or deleting each partition. Predictive Self-healing Imagine a server that anticipates and prevents problems before they happen. This server management feature of performs automatic monitoring and diagnosis of, memory, I/O subsystems and software components, thereby reducing administration load and improving system availability. Mechanisms to restart software services and hardware error detection, analysis and isolation further automate this process. Power savings Higher performance has in the past always raised power consumption. But the innovative design of UltraSPARC T2/T2 Plus overcomes this problem. Each integrated chip provides the services of an entire system but only consumes around 132 watts(max). Support for up to 64 threads means power consumption 2.1 watts per process. DTrace If performance deteriorates or other server system problems occur, Dynamic Trace (DTrace) helps you identify and monitor system problems, operational status and detailed system behavior, plus implement specific and targeted solutions. ZFS With its large 128-bit addressing power, Solaris ZFS (Zettabyte File System) provides simplified management and data protection mechanisms to enable you to handle very large-scale file systems. Top-level security conforms to the ISO/IEC15408 international security standard and has been EAL4+ certified.

4 Unstoppable support for your business SPARC Enterprise harnesses a range of technologies to provide total reliability for nonstop, 24-hour, year-round performance. They support your business in all aspects of data protection, error prevention, system continuity and business process restoration. Predictive monitoring SPARC Enterprise s nonstop monitoring analyzes your system from every perspective to create a virtually error-free operational environment Predictive monitoring Over 520,000 checkers monitor and predict errors across SPARC Enterprise. Combined with s Predictive Self-healing automated correction functions, SPARC Enterprise prevents or reduces the effects of errors in most situations. Data protection Fixing errors before they become problems is vital in non-stop systems. SPARC Enterprise protects your system with pin-point error correction. ECC ( Checking and Correction)/ Extended ECC SPARC Enterprise M3000, M4000, M5000, M8000 and M9000 use ECC extensively to correct, memory and system bus errors. This ensures data errors won t sideline your system operation. Extended ECC further protects memory, so that even if multi-bit errors occur, you can recover data as simply as with single-bit errors (Extended ECC is not available on certain memory configurations for SPARC Enterprise T5120/T5220/ T5140/T5240/ T5440). System protection Memory mirror SPARC Enterprise supports memory mirror, to ensure your business keeps running if an unpredictable error occurs. This is because the correct data is available on at least one side of the mirror. (Available on SPARC Enterprise M4000/M5000/M8000/M9000). Memory patrol SPARC Enterprise s memory patrol safeguards one of the most vital resources on the server. An independent memory controller checks memory, isolates errors and reconfigures for continuity. It also removes any load effects on s and checks OS areas. SPARC Enterprise boasts redundancy to maintain operations during system failure. SPARC Enterprise not only supports redundancy in major components such as disks, power supplies and fans, but also through memory mirroring. Your business will keep going using mirrored data in cases of multi-bit errors. Hot-swapping also supports service continuity, with SPARC Enterprise M8000/M9000 even permitting hot-swapping of s and memory. These features make SPARC Enterprise the benchmark in server business continuity. ECC ECC When single-bit error occurs Data recording occurs Memory chip 1bit error correctable with ECC In cases of Hardware Failure s are handled as multi bit errors as it is, which cannot be repaired Data readable Memory access controller Memory When hardware failure occurs Data recording Memory occurs Correctable Without memory mirror Extended ECC The algorithm distributes and stores data In cases of Hardware Failure When multi-bit error occurs Unable to record Operation stops occurs Uncorrectable s are handled as single-bit errors and can be repaired Unable to import data from #0 Memory With memory mirror Operation continues Import data from normal memory Memory #0 Memory #1 Records data redundantly PRIMECLUSTER Fujitsu has applied its high-availability clustering expertise to develop PRIMECLUSTER, a next-generation cluster solution. Featuring redundancy, fail over, and system degradation technology, PRIMECLUSTER extends your area of high reliability and system optimization in enterprise computing environments to storage, network and middleware, as well as the servers. Life and death watch in cooperation with XSCF Your existing clustering may provide reliability, but will it be enough? Sometimes, for instance, an active server cannot be switched to a stand-by server because it is down. SPARC Enterprise s extended System Control Facility (XSCF) functions separately from the standard processors on the system board, to monitor the status even when the system is otherwise inoperable. The new levels of control and automatic awareness with SPARC Enterprise will keep you fully informed of the status of system components under all conditions. Remote reporting functions To ensure reliability, Fujitsu provides remote reporting functions supported by skilled staff, allowing rapid system recovery should an unpredictable error occur. (Specific service content can vary by country, so please contact your local representative for details.) Hardware failure prediction The system automatically gathers predictive information for hardware failure and reports to a Fujitsu support center. Fujitsu then provides the necessary support to your administration to prevent or reduce the impact of any errors. In cases of unpredicted error, professional engineers at the center will identify any required components based on reports and quickly dispatch a service engineer with the components, to resolve the problem on site. Software problem diagnostics The system also notifies you of problems with reports, collecting and immediately reporting diagnostic data, affording significant time reduction for analysis and resolution. Support options Customer Failure prediction Failure Real-time report Service engineer (encrypted) Fujitsu Support Center Customer DB Failure Analysis DB Fujitsu provides a range of support services to prevent or quickly resolve failures.

5 Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Reduction TCO reduction is a key issue for IT system operations. Over time, the more servers and the greater the complexity of your server environment, the higher your overall costs. SPARC Enterprise provides solutions to streamline your IT system and reduce TCO. Advanced partition technology SPARC Enterprise provides both hardware and software partitioning. This lets you divide one system into many systems at the required levels of service availability and flexibility. Hardware partitioning enables you to maintain system partitions in total isolation, for the highest reliability. Solaris s in provide system resource virtualization. This means you can quickly create virtual OS partitions for very flexible server use. This combination of SPARC Enterprise hardware partitioning technology (Extended Partitioning) and Solaris s, vastly improves resource utilization, providing you with the flexibility to optimize the returns on your investment. Highly reliable, flexible partitioning SPARC Enterprise provides hardware partitioning (up to 24 partitions on the largest system) and Dynamic Reconfiguration (DR). Hardware partitions are not affected by problems or system issues in other partitions, and partitions can be reconfigured to match the load or processing requirements at any time. (Available on SPARC Enterprise M4000/ M5000/M8000/M9000). SPARC Enterprise also provides software partitioning with Solaris s, providing further virtual partitioning without complex operation. As virtual systems within the OS, Solaris s allow the operation of many processes. s can also be copied, so you can quickly configure virtual systems without a complex setup. SPARC Enterprise s combination of hardware and software partitioning delivers the kind of high reliability and system flexibility your business demands. Eco-friendly When expanding your system, space and power requirements, as well as heat dissipation, become key considerations. SPARC Enterprise runs cooler and helps save on power and space. Its optimal system consolidation efficiency also advances your business while helping reduce your environmental footprint. Energy and space savings SPARC Enterprise /VII and UltraSPARC T2/T2 Plus multi-core multi-thread allow for higher density system mounting compared to conventional UNIX servers. The enhanced performance is ideally suited to server consolidation in terms of weight and size. SPARC Enterprise achieves a smaller footprint, less power consumption and unsurpassed performance. 8U server 3 units 2U server 8 units SSM (Server System Manager) operation management software 70% space saving 54% power consumption saving PRIMEPOWER (8U) x 3 PRIMEPOWER (2U) x 8 10U server 1 unit 2U server 1 unit Hardware partitioning A A B C High load to applications A B C Fujitsu s high-performance server management tools also cut your management costs.
