IBM Flex-Node x240 VS Competition
vs. Cisco UCS B200 M3
 Does not offer & support memory rank sparing
 Limited to RAID 0 and 1 because it supports up to only two internal drives.
 Does not offer any FC or InfiniBand options
 Offers only Ethernet and FCoE connectivity for UCS
 Does not offer any expansion units for the UCS B200 M3.
 Has only an internal USB port , making access difficult
vs. Dell PowerEdge M620
 limited to RAID 0 and 1 because it supports up to only two internal drives
 lacks the selection of high-speed networking switches that IBM offers
 Advanced ECC runs at a slower speed than in ECC mode, and works on pair of DIMMs, not
single
 iDRAC7(Management –Module)comes with Express license, Enterprise-support would cost extra.
vs. HP ProLiant BL460c Gen8
 Advanced ECC runs at a slower speed than in ECC mode, and works on pair of DIMMs, not
single
 BL460c Gen8 is fixed at two 2.5-inch drives, has only an internal USB port.
 supports one optional storage, tape, or PCI expansion blade.
 Does not support Memory mirroring
 Still based on traditional BIOS and no support for Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI)
21

IBM Flex Chassis VS Competition
Vs. Cisco UCS 5108 Chassis
 The Cisco UCS 5108 chassis cannot support industry-standard networking.
 Uses a proprietary variation of FCoE and Fabric Extender (FEX) devices.
 It cannot support native Ethernet or Fibre Channel (FC)
 With UCS, all blade-to-blade and virtual-machine-to-virtual-machine network traffic must traverse
to the top-of-rack (TOR) switch first which results in high latency and network bottlenecks
 The UCS 5108 chassis supports only one network connection type: FCoE
 The UCS 5108 chassis does not support any internal, integrated shared storage
 The required UCS Fabric Interconnect modules use different power supplies than the 5108 chassis
vs. Dell PowerEdge M1000e
 In the Dell M1000e, the management connection is 100 Mb/s Ethernet
 Dell’s switches in the M1000e require all internal ports to be licensed, no matter how many are actually
in use.
 Requires an optional KVM over IP (iKVM) module in order to get local analog KVM access to individual
blades
 The Dell M1000e does not support any direct-connect storage expansion for blade nodes
 Always sold with a full complement of nine fans, even if the chassis configuration does not require all
nine fans
 Chassis Management Controller (CMC) in the Dell M1000e does not support SNMPv3.
 Does not have handles, and installation could be complex & could even damage the front- LCD module
22

IBM Flex Chassis VS Competition
vs. HP Blade System c7000 Platinum
 Is an aging chassis architecture , soon to be replaced with HP Moonshot 1500
 The management connection is 100 Mb/s Ethernet
 Shared storage is possible only via a Virtual Storage Appliance (VSA), that occupies at least 2blade slots
 Shared storage solution must be based on iSCSI, and it must be managed separately
 Mixing half-height and full-height blades in the same chassis can result in unusable chassis
bays
 The Onboard Administrator module does not support SNMPv3.
 Switches require all internal ports to be licensed, no matter how many are actually in use

The Problem:
Today’s networking offerings
lack the flexibility to meet the
demands of the next decade of
I/O. Clients are often burdened
now with the costs of
technology for tomorrow.
Extreme Flexibility
• Designed to meet port and bandwidth
requirements for next decade
• Pay for what you need today with
Features on Demand (FoD)
Highest Performance
• First 40Gb capable Ethernet Switch
• First 16Gb capable SAN Switch
• First 56Gb capable Infiniband FDR switch
• Up to 220Gb uplink BW and <1microsec
latency
Standards based Convergence
• 10Gb iSCSI and FCoE offering
• First 40Gb end to end FCoE offering
(post GA)
• Standard based for seamless integration

IBM Flex System Fabric I/O modules — Flexible and
innovative integration with your existing or future network
•
Flexibility – Clients have Choice - Full Switch Mode or Easy Connect Mode
•
Investment protection
• Extreme “Pay as you grow” scalability
• Support for 1/10/40Gb Ethernet
• Software upgrade entitlements while under warranty
•
Reduce costs
• Up to 75% lower I/O cost vs. Pass-Thru - Fewer ext. ports & cables
• Convergence – up to 25% less with FCoE or less with NAS/iSCSI
• Economical use of adapter bandwidth - vNIC (Virtual Fabric / UFP)
• Simplified management – Chassis / Rack as 1 logical unit (FSM)
• Smart workload provisioning and placement to max. performance
• Automate Ethernet & server provisioning and failover (Fabric Mgr.)
• VM aware networking automates deployment & migrations - VMready
•
Improve Performance and user satisfaction
• Lower latency - < 1us latency
• Minimize upstream network traffic - keep traffic in the system (rack/chassis)
