This subchapter pertains to all HP 9000 Superdome servers (running PA-8600, PA-8700 or PA-8800 processors) for all markets. With Superdome, HP launches a new strategy to ensure a positive Total Customer Experience is achieved via industry-leading HP Services.
Service Solutions Service Solutions Service Solutions Service Solutions HP offers three pre-configured service solutions for Superdome that provide customers with a choice of lifecycle services to address their own individual business requirements.
NOTE: NOTE: NOTE: NOTE: Given that PA-8600/PA-8700 are single-core processors and PA-8800 is a dual-core processor, the columns listed in this table refer to 16-socket, 32-socket and 64-socket. This terminology refers to 16-way, 32-way and 64-way for Superdome PA-8600/PA-8700 and 32-way, 64-way and 128-way for Superdome PA 8800 systems.
There are three basic building blocks in the Superdome system architecture: the cell, the crossbar backplane and the I/O subsystem. Please note that Superdome with PA-8800 is based on a different chip set (sx1000) than Superdome with PA-8600 or PA-8700.
Cells (CPUs and Memory) Cells (CPUs and Memory) Cells (CPUs and Memory) Cells (CPUs and Memory) A cell, or cell board, is the basic building block of a Superdome system.
I/O Subsystem I/O Subsystem I/O Subsystem I/O Subsystem Each I/O chassis provides twelve I/O slots. Superdome PA-8600 and Superdome PA-8700 support I/O chassis with 12 PCI 66 capable slots, eight supported via single (1x) ropes (266 MB/s peak) and four supported via dual (2x) ropes (533 MB/s peak).
Factory Integration Factory Integration Factory Integration Factory Integration When an I/O Expansion cabinet is ordered as an upgrade to a Superdome system, it includes the factory testing and integration of any components that are ordered at the same time as the cabinet.
DVD Solution DVD Solution DVD Solution DVD Solution The DVD solution for Superdome requires the following components per partition. External racks A4901A and A4902A must also be ordered with the DVD solution. NOTE: NOTE: NOTE: NOTE: One DVD and one DAT is required per nPartition.
High Availability High Availability High Availability High Availability NOTE: NOTE: NOTE: NOTE: Online addition/replacement for cell boards is not currently supported and will be available in a future HP UX release. Online addition/replacement of individual CPUs and memory DIMMs will never be supported.

Supportability and management features on HP 9000 Superdome are covered in the next section. Service Processor (MP) Service Processor (MP) Service Processor (MP) Service Processor (MP) The service processor (MP) utility hardware is an independent support system for nPartition servers.
Support Management Support Management Support Management Support Management Station Station Station Station (SMS) The Support Management Station (SMS) runs the Superdome scan tools that enhance the diagnosis and testability of Superdome. The SMS and associated tools also provide for faster and easier upgrades and hardware replacement.
It is desirable, and sometimes essential for rapid time to repair to provide a reliable way to get console access that is physically close to the server, so that someone working on the server hardware can get immediate access to the results of their actions.
PA 8700 PA 8700 PA 8700 PA 8700 Hardware Requirement Hardware Requirement Hardware Requirement Hardware Requirement Customers ordering an SMS for the first time for a new PA 8700 Superdome should order the rx2600 SMS. The rx2600 SMS can also be used to manage PA8800 and Integrity Superdomes.
Console Connectivity Console Connectivity Console Connectivity Console Connectivity PA8700 Superdomes require scan and console to be on separate networks. Existing PA-8700 Superdome customers may have a Legacy UNIX SMS (e.g. A500 or rp2470) that required a separate console device.
Supports multiple, heterogeneous Superdome platforms. The Windows ProLiant SMS/Console is comprised of a ProLiant ML350 G3/G4 and a TFT5600 retractable display monitor/keyboard/mouse to enable console access. This solution also requires (and includes) a switch.
SMS/Console Connectivity SMS/Console Connectivity SMS/Console Connectivity SMS/Console Connectivity One SMS can support up to 16 Superdomes using a switch (the Windows ProLiant SMS can support Integrity Superdomes only, and the UNIX rx2600 SMS can support both Integrity and HP 9000 Superdomes).
Mixed Superdome Environments Mixed Superdome Environments Mixed Superdome Environments Mixed Superdome Environments Some important rules regarding SMS/Console support in mixed Superdome environments: 1. PA-8700 Superdomes require scan and console traffic to be isolated on separate networks 2.
