For a list of supported servers and storage systems, refer to the Hardware requirements section. Planned availability date July 17, 2009 Description As IT organizations continue to face the increased complexity of system configuration and ever-rising operational costs, they are looking for new ways to simplify their IT environments. To address this challenge, the IBM Converged Switch B32 is designed to offer a versatile switch that supports both Fibre Channel and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) to help organizations simplify their growing infrastructures. The IBM Converged Switch B32 provides a reliable platform that helps reduce cable clutter, equipment acquisition costs, and operational costs associated with power consumption and cooling. This unique top-of-rack switch features a low-profile 1U form factor and low power consumption (a maximum 350 watts), leading the way toward a "greener" data center. The IBM Converged Switch B32 features 8 Fibre Channel ports along with 24 ports for 10 Gigabit Ethernet. The Fibre Channel ports operate at 8 Gbps, and the 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports support Converged Enhanced Ethernet (CEE), and are capable of transporting both storage and LAN traffic, eliminating the need for separate SAN and LAN adapters. To support the most data-intensive applications, the IBM Converged Switch B32 is designed to deliver a non-blocking architecture. The top-of-rack IBM Converged Switch B32 connects to servers through Converged Network Adapters (CNAs). The consolidated SAN and LAN server ports and corresponding cables simplify configuration and cabling in server cabinets to reduce acquisition costs. With fewer components using power or requiring cooling, organizations can save significant operating costs as well. FCoE preserves Fibre Channel constructs and services. It integrates seamlessly into existing Fibre Channel environments, enabling organizations to maximize the value of their current investments. In addition, FCoE extends the reach of Fibre Channel management applications and tools, enabling organizations to manage FCoE-attached devices with their existing Storage Area Network (SAN) management applications. The switch utilizes ASIC technology that supports port trunking for Fibre Channel and link aggregation for Ethernet. For Fibre Channel, an Inter-Switch Link (ISL) trunk can supply up to 64 Gbps of balanced data throughput. In addition to reducing IBM is a registered trademark of International Business Machines Corporation 2

3 congestion and increasing bandwidth, ISL Trunking utilizes ISLs more efficiently to preserve the number of usable switch ports. For Ethernet, the IBM Converged Switch B32 supports standards-based Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP). Additional performance capabilities include 32 virtual channels on each ISL, enabling antistarvation capabilities at the port level to avoid performance degradation. In addition, exchange-based Dynamic Path Selection (DPS) optimizes fabric-wide performance and load balancing by automatically routing data to the most efficient available path in the fabric. DPS further augments ISL Trunking to provide more effective load balancing in certain configurations. The IBM Converged Switch B32 provides a reliable foundation for disaster recovery and business continuance by employing enterprise-class availability features such as hot-swappable, redundant, and integrated fan and power supply assemblies. Combined with a wide range of diagnostic and monitoring functions, these capabilities help ensure highly available SAN environments. In conjunction with Brocade SAN extension products, the IBM Converged Switch B32 enables servers and storage devices to reside remotely, giving organizations a reliable way to create highly available environments that support the most sophisticated business continuance and disaster recovery initiatives. The IBM Converged Switch B32 utilizes the same Brocade Fabric operative system that supports the entire IBM b-type Fibre Channel product family, from fixed port switches to the SAN768B Fabric Backbone. This helps ensure backward compatibility that enables the IBM Converged Switch B32 to seamlessly integrate with existing Fibre Channel investments. This design also enables forward compatibility among Brocade solutions, simplifying maintenance and field upgrades while providing peace of mind for future data center expansion. Moreover, organizations can monitor and manage the IBM Converged Switch B32 with fabric robust management applications such as the IBM Data Center Fabric Manager (DCFM). By networking Fibre Channel switches and the IBM Converged Switch B32 under a common management platform, Fabric OS simplifies management through standard interfaces and support for third-party management applications. The IBM Converged Switch B32 supports switch management through a Command Line Interface (CLI), Web Tools, or DCFM, which includes support for FCoE and CEE. The IBM Converged Switch B32 is designed for the highest level of fabric security to help organizations safeguard their critical information. It utilizes Advanced Zoning as well as advanced port and switch Access Control Lists (ACLs) to simplify administration and significantly increase control over data access. To simplify management access security, the IBM Converged Switch B32 supports Active Directory with LDAP.
