Sales Guide August 2003 IBM ^ 325 Groundbreaking 32/64-bit performance in a 1U server [ Target Customers: Businesses requiring a High-Performance Computing server with 32-bit (and, optionally, 64-bit) capabilities in a space-constrained data center, or Scientific/Technical computing clusters.
posted a floating-point score that was 41% better than that of the Xeon-based HP DL360 G3 server, and at a slightly lower cost. The same e325 score was 63% of that posted by the Itanium 2-based HP rx2.
Other New Features y Four USB 1.1 ports — The flexibility to add more external devices, with two ports in the front and two in the rear. y High-resolution video — Up to 1600x1200 resolution, with a color depth of 24 bits at 85Hz refresh rate, using the ATI Rage XL SVGA video controller.
stepped-down front side bus (FSB) used in other system architectures, by accessing memory at the same speed as the processor. This permits the fastest possible access to CPU and memory. Opteron offers outstanding 32-bit performance using today’s operating systems, and an upgrade path to low-cost 64-bit computing with tomorrow’s 64-bit OSes.
Like C2T Interconnect cabling, ACT reduces clutter, simplifies cable management, and reduces cabling costs. Also, having fewer cables improves rack airflow and reduces heat buildup. Plus, while typical KVM cabling limits the management to perhaps 16 servers per switch, ACT can support up to 256 servers using only one RCM.
Extensive System Support Features The IBM services and technical support portfolio provides world-class, consistent, high-quality service and support. The e325 server offers a number of tools and services designed to make ownership a positive experience.
ensuring that customers have all the cables, power distribution units, KVM (keyboard, video and mouse) switch boxes and other components they need, as well as the proper airflow clearances, electrical circuits and other environmental conditions. IBM ServerGuide (installed from CD) simplifies the process of installing and configuring e325 servers.

y Optional ACT interconnect cabling technology can eliminate hundreds of connectors and hundreds of feet of KVM cables per rack, while helping to increase reliability and reduce setup time. This saves customers money in terms of KVM cabling, PDUs and KVM switches, as well as the time necessary to manage all those cables switches.

e325 vs. x335, x382 and p615 Each system offers advantages over the others, depending on the environment. The Bottom Line 1. Choose e325 (Opteron ) for high 64-bit Linux/Windows price/performance. Choose x382 ( Itanium 2 ) for the highest 64-bit floating point Windows performance.
Integrity rx2600: Itanium 2 accesses memory at the FSB speed ( 400MHz , currently). e325: Supports 333MHz PC2700 DDR ECC memory with higher performance than PC2100 memory. Integrity rx2600: Supports only 266MHz PC2100 DDR ECC memory. e325: The e325 with the Opteron processor can support a peak aggregate memory bandwidth of 10.
Dell PowerEdge 1750 e325: The e325 with the Opteron processor can support a peak HyperTransport Tunnel bandwidth of 16.0GB per second, 375% better than that of Xeon. PowerEdge 1750: The peak FSB bandwidth of Xeon is 4.26GBps in a system with a 533MHz FSB.
The Bottom Line 1. Sell speed: Faster memory and front-side bus helps your customers power through the toughest jobs. Twice the L2 processor cache improves processor performance.

Un punto importante, dopo l’acquisto del dispositivo (o anche prima di acquisto) è quello di leggere il manuale. Dobbiamo farlo per diversi motivi semplici:
Se non hai ancora comprato il IBM 325 è un buon momento per familiarizzare con i dati di base del prodotto. Prime consultare le pagine iniziali del manuale d’uso, che si trova al di sopra. Dovresti trovare lì i dati tecnici più importanti del IBM 325 - in questo modo è possibile verificare se l’apparecchio soddisfa le tue esigenze. Esplorando le pagine segenti del manuali d’uso IBM 325 imparerai tutte le caratteristiche del prodotto e le informazioni sul suo funzionamento. Le informazioni sul IBM 325 ti aiuteranno sicuramente a prendere una decisione relativa all’acquisto.
In una situazione in cui hai già il IBM 325, ma non hai ancora letto il manuale d’uso, dovresti farlo per le ragioni sopra descritte. Saprai quindi se hai correttamente usato le funzioni disponibili, e se hai commesso errori che possono ridurre la durata di vita del IBM 325.
Tuttavia, uno dei ruoli più importanti per l’utente svolti dal manuale d’uso è quello di aiutare a risolvere i problemi con il IBM 325. Quasi sempre, ci troverai Troubleshooting, cioè i guasti più frequenti e malfunzionamenti del dispositivo IBM 325 insieme con le istruzioni su come risolverli. Anche se non si riesci a risolvere il problema, il manuale d’uso ti mostrerà il percorso di ulteriori procedimenti – il contatto con il centro servizio clienti o il servizio più vicino.
