Outstanding performance, superior mainframe-like reliability, and
fault-tolerant memory characteristics
IBM® has been designing and implementing servers under the X-Architecture
® name since
2001. eX5 technology represents the fifth generation of enterprise servers based on the same
design principle IBM began with in 1997: to offer systems that are expandable, offer “big iron”
reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS) features, with extremely competitive
price/performance on an Intel® Xeon® processor-based system.
The eX5 technology is primarily designed around three major workloads: database servers,
server consolidation using virtualization services, and Enterprise Resource Planning
(application and database) servers.
If you’re using industry-standard Xeon processor-based servers for running business critical
applications, the systems that run these applications need the type of technology designed into
IBM’s eX5 technology systems. eX5 technology represents a $100M+ investment in designing
a flagship offering that can harness the power of the latest 64-bit x86 (x64) Xeon processors.
The eX5 family includes a rack-optimized chassis ( ). In addition, for 2U 2-socket x3690 X5
those workloads that require the maximum available memory, the x3690 X5 support a 1U
MAX5 memory expansion unit, which adds an additional 32 DIMM slots (up to DIMMs / 64 2TB
total). You can save money on software licensing by using the memory capacity to virtualize the
server into many VMs, rather than using multiple servers. Huge amounts of memory also
enable larger VMs and larger databases.
The x3690 X5 offers database optimized models with eXFlash solid-state drive technology,
pretested and ready to deploy for database workloads.
The x3690 X5 Workload Optimized Solution for SAP In-Memory Appliance, SAP HANA
models offer a preloaded and optimized appliance based on the two-socket x3690 X5 server
platform. These models include two processors, 256GB of memory and choice of all eXFlash
SSs or a combination of solid-state and hard disk drives. They are designed for use in small-to-
midsized SAP HANA configurations. These models also include the following software: Novell
SLES for SAP Applications operating system with three-year priority support and the IBM
General Parallel File System (GPFS) with 3 year support. SAP HANA software is Note:
included, but sold separately by SAP.
The x3690 X5 offers models with aintegrated hypervisor preloaded USB 2.0 flash keyon a .
It operates in a diskless configuration, offers a smaller memory footprint, extremely high
performance, and stronger security, making getting a system up and running in a virtualized
environment faster and easier than ever before.
IBM X-Architecture pioneered XpandOnDemand™ (“pay as you grow”) scalability, which allows
chassis to be simply cabled together to form larger scale-up systems. This capability allows IBM
to sell a large SMP (symmetric multiprocessing) system at entry price points. With
XpandOnDemand, you can start small and later expand as your needs change, without
requiring you to buy more than you need up-front or throw away parts later as you expand.
IBM’s eX5 technology-based systems are the ideal solution for scale-up database-serving
applications on Microsoft® Windows® with Microsoft SQL Server® or IBM DB2®, as well as
Linux® with Oracle or DB2. Database hosting demands ultimate server reliability features, and
once installed, they tend to grow and grow, requiring ever greater levels of availability. eX5
servers provide exactly that degree to availability.
Another strong application area for the eX5-based systems is enterprise server consolidation
activities workloads, including SAP and Oracle. eX5 systems can offer considerable savings
over UNIX® deployments, using our certified solution stacks on either Windows or Linux.. Larger
servers need more processor, memory and I/O resources, which make maximum use of any
applicable virtual machine software licensing fees and deliver superior system utilization levels.
The name of the game in consolidation activities is to deploy the fewest new servers possible
and help IT staff manage more images with the same or fewer overall people.
The eX5 servers are designed to protect your data with high performance, high reliability, and
high availability. They support the latest -, -, , and Intelten eight six- four-core ® Xeon®
processor family and series processors, up to memory access, and up E7 7500/6500 1066MHz

to of cache to help provide you with the computing power you need to match your 30MB L3
business needs and growth. The new Xeon , , and series processors E7-8800 E7-4800 E7-2800
offer up to 40% greater performance than the previous-generation and series 7500 6500
processors.
In addition, the x3690 X5 uses industry-standard memory with DDR3 Chipkill
™ (Error ECC
Checking and Correcting) protection—for high performance and reliability. For even higher
levels of availability, the eX5 servers also offer Memory ProteXion
™, , memory scrubbing
memory rank sparing, and selectable memory mirroring.
A integrated high-speed controller with (TCP Offload Engine)dual-port Gigabit Ethernet TOE
acceleration is standard in all models, as are high-performance adapter slots. A five PCIe 10
Gigabit Ethernet virtual fabric addapter is standard in selected models. The 10GbE solution
provides the benefits and flexibility of I/O convergence in a single end-to-end solution.
The x3690 X5 offer industry-leading scalability, including up to of memory in the 2U 1TB
chassis (upgradeable to using a 1U MAX5 memory expansion unit), and a choice of up to 2TB
16 2.5-inch internal (SAS) or (SATA II) hard disk Serial-Attach SCSI Serial ATA II hot-swap
drives, with an internal storage capacity of up to or ( ), or up to 9.6TB (SAS) 8TB SATA 24 1.8-
inch solid-state drives SSDs 4.8TB ( ) with a capacity of . Or, you can combine the two, having
8 HDDs 16 SSDs ServeRAID-M1015and in the same chassis. The Standard SAS/SATA
controller provides RAID-0/1/10 support (upgradeable to 5/50). Optional IBM ServeRAID
SAS/SATA/SSD RAID and SSD non-RAID controllers add up to of battery-backed 512MB
cache to the onboard controller to provide . The size of the RAID-0/1/10/10/5/50/6/60 2U
chassis helps you maximize your rack investments. Up to of these chassis can be installed 21
in a single 42U rack, for a total of up to processors ( cores), PCIe slots, and 42 420 105 336
HDDs or SSDs, offering an ideal balance of performance, storage and I/O slots per rack. 504
Standard in the x3690 X5 is the that enables the user Integrated Management Module (IMM)
to manage and control the server easily—both locally and remotely. The IMM offers a high level
of manageability that is designed to keep costs down and the system up—even when network
usage increases. The drop-down panel enables quick servicing of the light path diagnostics
system if a problem develops. These advanced features help maximize network availability by
increasing uptime, as do IBM OnForever™ features, such as , hot-swap/redundant HDDs
power fans Active Memory and ; ™; ; support, includingtemperature-controlled fans IPMI 2.0
highly secure remote power control Serial over LAN and ; as well as text- and graphics-
console redirect over LAN.
Another improvement with the new generation of X-Architecture is the replacement of legacy
BIOS with a new generation (UEFI). UEFI provides a Unified Extensible Firmware Interface
more intuitive user interface and understandable event logs and better management.
With the inclusion of unique IBM service and support features such as , IBM Systems Director
IBM Systems Director Active Energy Manager
™, and IBM ServerGuide™, the x3690 X5 is
designed for maximum uptime.
If you need a balance of high-performance two-socket processing, enormous memory
expansion, and large I/O capacity in a rack-dense environment, these are the ideal systems.
