The '''IBM System p''' is a high-end line of [[Reduced instruction set computer|RISC]] ([[IBM Power microprocessors|Power]])/[[Unix|UNIX]]-based servers. It was the successor of the [[RS/6000]] line, and predecessor of the [[IBM Power Systems]] server series.
In April 2008, IBM announced a rebranding of the System p and its unification with the [[System i]] platform. The resulting product line is called '''[[IBM Power Systems]]'''.


==History==
==History==
It was originally a line of workstations and servers called RS/6000. The server line was then renamed to the '''''e''Server pSeries''' in 2000 as part of its e-Server branding initiative.
The previous [[RS/6000]] line was originally a line of workstations and servers. The first System p server line was named the '''''e''Server pSeries''' in 2000 as part of the e-Server branding initiative.
With the advent of the [[POWER5]] processor in 2004, the family was rebranded the '''''e''Server p5'''.
With the global move of the server and storage brands to the '''System''' brand with the Systems Agenda, the family was renamed yet again to '''System p5''' in 2005.
The System p5 now encompasses the IBM [[OpenPower]] product line.
With the introduction of POWER6 processor models, the new models were released under the '''System p''' brand, dropping the p5 designation.


In 2004, with the advent of the [[POWER5]] processor, the server family was rebranded the '''''e''Server p5'''.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Stokes|first=Jon|date=2004-07-14|title=IBM launches POWER5-based p5 server line|url=https://arstechnica.com/uncategorized/2004/07/3993-2/|access-date=2020-12-11|website=Ars Technica|language=en-us}}</ref>
==Processors==
Whereas RS/6000 used a mix of early [[IBM POWER microprocessors|POWER]] and [[PowerPC]] processors, when pSeries came along this had evolved into [[RS64|RS64-III]] and [[POWER3]] across the board—POWER3 for its excellent floating-point performance and RS64 for its scalability, throughput, and integer performance.


In 2005, following IBM's move to streamline its server and storage brands worldwide, and incorporating the "System" brand with the Systems Agenda, the family was again renamed to '''System p5'''. The System p5 now encompassed the IBM OpenPower product line.
IBM developed the [[POWER4]] processor to replace both POWER3 and the RS64 line in 2001. After that the differences between throughput and number crunching-optimized systems no longer existed. Since then System p machines evolved to use the [[POWER5]] but also the [[PowerPC 970]] for the low-end and blade systems.


In 2007, after the introduction of the [[POWER6]] processor models, the last rename under the '''System p''' brand dropped the p (numbered) designation.
The last System p systems used the [[POWER6]] processor, such as the POWER6-based System p 570 and the JS22 blade. In addition IBM introduced during the SuperComputing 2007 (SC07) conference in Reno a new POWER6-based System p 575 with 32 POWER6 cores at 4.7&nbsp;GHz and up to 256GB of RAM with water cooling.


In April 2008, IBM announced a rebranding of the System p and its unification with the mid-range [[IBM AS/400|System i]] platform. The resulting product line was called '''[[IBM Power Systems]]'''.
==Features==
All IBM System p5 and IBM ''e''Server p5 machines support [[Dynamic Logical Partitioning|DLPAR (Dynamic Logical Partitioning)]] with [[Storage virtualization|Virtual I/O]] and [[Micro-partitioning]].


==Hardware and software==

The [[IBM]] p690 was, at the time of its release in late 2001, the flagship of IBM's high end [[Unix]] servers ([[pSeries]]) during the [[POWER4]] era of processors. It was built to run IBM [[AIX_operating_system|AIX]] Unix, although it is possible to run a version [[Linux]] minus some POWER4 specific features.

'''OpenPower''' was the name of a range of servers in the [[System p]] line from [[IBM]]. They featured IBM's [[POWER5]] [[Central processing unit|CPUs]] and run only 64-bit versions of [[Linux on Power|Linux]]. IBM's own [[UNIX]] variant, [[AIX]] is not supported since the OpenPower servers are not licensed for this [[operating system]].

There were two models available, with a variety of configurations.

Before 2005, OpenPower belonged to the [[eServer]] product line but were eventually rolled into the IBM's [[Power Systems]] product portfolio.

The IBM System p is a high-end line of RISC (Power)/UNIX-based servers. It was the successor of the RS/6000 line, and predecessor of the IBM Power Systems server series.

History

[edit]

The previous RS/6000 line was originally a line of workstations and servers. The first System p server line was named the eServer pSeries in 2000 as part of the e-Server branding initiative.

In 2004, with the advent of the POWER5 processor, the server family was rebranded the eServer p5.[1]

In 2005, following IBM's move to streamline its server and storage brands worldwide, and incorporating the "System" brand with the Systems Agenda, the family was again renamed to System p5. The System p5 now encompassed the IBM OpenPower product line.

In 2007, after the introduction of the POWER6 processor models, the last rename under the System p brand dropped the p (numbered) designation.

In April 2008, IBM announced a rebranding of the System p and its unification with the mid-range System i platform. The resulting product line was called IBM Power Systems.

Hardware and software

[edit]

Processors

[edit]

Whereas the previous RS/6000 line used a mix of early POWER and PowerPC processors, when pSeries came along, this had evolved into RS64-III and POWER3 across the board—POWER3 for its excellent floating-point performance and RS64 for its scalability, throughput, and integer performance.

IBM developed the POWER4 processor to replace both POWER3 and the RS64 line in 2001. After that, the differences between throughput and number crunching-optimized systems no longer existed. Since then, System p machines evolved to use the POWER5 but also the PowerPC 970 for the low-end and blade systems.

The last System p systems used the POWER6 processor, such as the POWER6-based System p 570 and the JS22 blade. In addition, during the SuperComputing 2007 (SC07) conference in Reno, IBM introduced a new POWER6-based System p 575 with 32 POWER6 cores at 4.7 GHz and up to 256 GB of RAM with water cooling.

Features

[edit]

All IBM System p5 and IBM eServer p5 machines support DLPAR (Dynamic Logical Partitioning) with Virtual I/O and Micro-partitioning.

System p generally uses the AIX operating system and, more recently, 64-bit versions of the Linux operating system.

  • IBM eServer pSeries 610 (7028-6C1 & 6E1)
  • IBM eServer pSeries 615 (7029-6C3, 7029-6E3) (1~2-core POWER4+ CPU)[2]
  • IBM eServer pSeries 620 (7025-F80, 6F0 & 6F1) (1~3 2-core RS64-IV CPUs)[3]
  • IBM eServer pSeries 630 (7028-6C4, 7028-6E4) (1 1-core POWER4 CPU or 1~2 2-core POWER4 CPUs)[4]
  • IBM eServer pSeries 640 (7026-B80) 1-4 POWER3-II CPUs
  • IBM eServer pSeries 650 (7038-6M2) 2-8 POWER4 CPUs
  • IBM eServer pSeries 655 (7039-651) 4-8 POWER4 CPUs
  • IBM eServer pSeries 660 (7026-H80, 6H0, 6H1, M80 & 6M1)
  • IBM eServer pSeries 670 (7040-671) 4-16 POWER4 CPUs
  • IBM eServer pSeries 680 (7017 range)
  • IBM eServer pSeries 690 (7040-681) 8-32 POWER4 CPUs

The IBM p690 was, at the time of its release in late 2001, the flagship of IBM's high-end Unix servers during the POWER4 era of processors. It was built to run IBM AIX Unix, although it is possible to run a version of Linux minus some POWER4-specific features.

It could support up to 32 (1.5, 1.7 or 1.9 GHz) POWER4+ processors and 1 TB of RAM, which weighs well over 1000 kg. It was used in a supercomputer at Forschungszentrum Jülich in 2004, and was discontinued in late 2005.[5]

System p was rebranded to Power Systems in 2008.

OpenPower

[edit]

OpenPower was the name of a range of servers in the System p line from IBM. They featured IBM's POWER5 CPUs and run only 64-bit versions of Linux. IBM's own UNIX variant, AIX is not supported since the OpenPower servers are not licensed for this operating system.

There were two models available, with a variety of configurations.

Before 2005, OpenPower belonged to the eServer product line but were eventually rolled into the IBM's Power Systems product portfolio.

  • IBM eServer OpenPower 710 (9123-710) (1~2-core POWER5 CPU)[52]
  • IBM eServer OpenPower 720 (9124-720) 1-4 POWER5 CPUs
