The FUJITSU Server BS2000 SE Series comprises several models whose total operating performance is determined by the number of CPUs in the Server Unit. All models have at least one CPU for BS2000 OSD/XC, the BS2000 operating system complemented by additional system-related software products.
A FUJITSU Server BS2000 of the SE Series (SE server for short) consists of the following components:
Management Unit (MU) with SE Manager
An autonomous server known as the "Management Unit" (MU) is integrated into the rack for monitoring and central operation of the system.
For SU /390 the MU performs SVP operation.
Remote service of the SE server is performed by means of AIS Connect (over the internet). For AIS Connect the Management Unit requires an internet access over the administration LAN. The customer operates the access for remote service via the SE Manager.Server Unit
A /390-based Server Unit (SU /390) enables operation of BS2000 (Native BS2000 or VM2000).
An x86-based Server Unit (SU x86) enables operation of BS2000 (Native or VM2000). XenVM operation with Linux or Windows guest systems is also possible as an option.
In the basic configuration the SE server is equipped with one Server Unit:
SE700 in its basic configuration with one SU700 (type SU /390)
10 models of the SU700 are available with 2 to 15 processors.SE500 in its basic configuration with one SU500 (type SU /390)
6 models of the SU500 are available with 1 to 3 processors.SE300 in its basic configuration with one SU300 (type SU x86)
The SU300 provides BS2000 performance solely on the basis of x86 technology. 16 models are available with 1 to 16 XEON processor cores. In terms of processor performance, configurability and scalability of the monoprocessor performance, the SU300 models range below the SU700/SU500 models.
SE servers can optionally be equipped with additional SU300s. For example, an SE500/700 can be equipped with up to two SU300s, and an SE300 with up to three SU300s.
Net Unit, for SU /390 with HNC
Gigabit Ethernet Switches are integrated into the rack for internal communication. In the case of SE700 and SE500 the Net Unit is by default redundant in design. In the case of SE300, redundancy of the Net Unit is optional. In the case of SE700 and SE500 an HNC provides the LAN connections for the SU /390.Rack console and KVM switch
Application Unit (AU)
Optionally up to 20 AUs can be operated on the SE server for customer applications. An x86-based AU permits operation under Linux, Windows or VMware.Peripherals (storage)
Optional hardware components:
Up to two ETERNUS JX40 disk storage systems can optionally be integrated into the rack to back up the user data and connected to an SU x86 or AU. Further disk storage systems (e.g. ETERNUS DX) can optionally be connected via Fibre Channel.
ETERNUS LT40 S2 tape libraries with LTO drives can optionally be integrated into the rack to back up the user data and connected to an SU x86 or AU. Further tape libraries (e.g. ETERNUS CS HE and Scalar i500, i6000, 10000) can optionally be connected via Fibre Channel.
All components of the SE server are integrated into a joint rack (depending on the configuration, further racks are optionally possible). Information on the current hardware configuration of your SE server is displayed by the SE Manager in the Hardware -> HW Inventory menu (see the "Operation and Administration" manual [5]).
Detailed information on the installation data, in particular on the dimensions and weights, is provided in the data sheet "FUJITSU Server BS2000 SE Series".
