1 Hardware Announcement July 25, 2006 IBM System p5 505 and System p5 505Q offer four new processor options Overview The System p5 505 offers new POWER5+ processor options with the 1-core, 1.9 GHz processor with no L3 cache, the 2-core, 1.9 GHz processor with a 36 MB L3 cache, and the 2-core, 2.1 GHz processor with a 36 MB L3 cache. The new System p5 505Q offers the 4-core, 1.65 GHz processor with two 36 MB L3 caches. The new processors on the p5-505 allow you to configure either a 1-core or 2-core system, and the new processor on the p5-505q allows you to configure a 4-core system. Four new Express Product Offerings are available on the p5-505 and p5-505q, offering popular, easy-to-order configurations with attractive financial incentives. The p5-505 and p5-505q also provide end-to-end Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop support in conjunction with the IBM System Storage DS4000/6000 and DS8000 line of Fibre Channel storage. The combination of System p5 servers and System Storage provides a full set of solutions designed to help maximize the return on your infrastructure investment. Also available are two new memory features (#8230 and #8231) that offer customers 16 GB or 32 GB large memory configurations at competitive prices on the initial purchase of a p5-505 or p5-505q system. Key prerequisites Refer to the Hardware requirements and Software requirements sections. At a glance The System p5 505 and 505Q offer: Four additional IBM POWER5+ processor options 1-core, 1.9 GHz processor with no L3 cache 2-core, 1.9 GHz processor with a 36 MB L3 cache 2-core, 2.1 GHz processor with a 36 MB L3 cache 4-core, 1.65 GHz processor with two 36 MB L3 caches New Express Product Offerings For ordering, contact: Your IBM representative, an IBM Business Partner, or the Americas Call Centers at 800-IBM-CALL Reference: YE001 Planned availability date August 11, 2006 This announcement is provided for your information only.

2 Description System p5 505 and 505Q standard features Rack-mount (1U) configuration 1-core, 2-core, and 4-core SMP design (one processor card) p5-505: 1-core, 1.65 GHz with no L3 cache p5-505: 1-core, 1.9 GHz with no L3 cache p5-505: 2-core, 1.5 GHz with 36 MB L3 cache p5-505: 2-core, 1.65 GHz with 36 MB L3 cache p5-505: 2-core, 1.9 GHz with 36 MB L3 cache p5-505: 2-core, 2.1 GHz with 36 MB L3 cache p5-505q: 4-core, 1.65 GHz with two 36 MB L3 caches 1 GB of DDR MHz ECC memory, expandable to 32 GB Two DASD bays for 3.5-in disk drives One slimline media bay 1 : One DVD-ROM (default option, which can be deselected) One DVD-RAM (optional) Two PCI-X slots: 64-bit, 266 MHz (long) 64-bit, 266 MHz (low profile) Integrated: Dual 10/100/1000 Ethernet Dual-channel Ultra320 SCSI controller One external SCSI port Service processor Hot-swap and redundant fans One USB port One system port Two HMC/UPS ports 600 watt power supply, base (redundant power optional) 1 Either a DVD-ROM or DVD-RAM is required in a minimum configuration. System p5 505 and 505Q Express Product Offerings Express Product Offerings are available only as initial order. If you order a p5-505 server with a 1-core (#8289) or 2-core (#7679) POWER GHz processor, or a 2-core (#8290) POWER GHz processor, or a p5-505q server with a 4-core (#8288) 1.65 GHz processor Express Product Offering as defined here, you may qualify for a processor activation at no additional charge. The number of processors, total memory, quantity/size of disk, and presence of a media device are the only features that determine if a customer is entitled to a processor activation at no additional charge. When you purchase an Express Product Offering, you will be entitled to a lower-priced AIX 5L or Linux operating system license, or you may choose to purchase the system with no operating system. The lower-priced AIX 5L or Linux operating system is processed via a feature number on AIX 5L and either Red Hat or SUSE Linux subscription, but not both. If you choose AIX 5L for your lower-priced operating system, you can also order Linux but will purchase your Linux subscription at full price versus the reduced price. The converse is true if you choose a Linux subscription as your lower-priced operating system. Systems with a lower-priced AIX 5L offering will be referred to as the IBM System p5 Express, AIX 5L edition, and systems with a lower-priced Linux operating system will be referred to as the IBM System p5 Express, OpenPower editions. In the case of Linux, only the first subscription purchased is lower priced so, for example, additional licenses purchased for Red Hat to run in multiple partitions will be at full price. You can make changes to the standard features as needed and still qualify for processor entitlements at no additional charge and a discounted AIX or Linux operating system license. However, selection of total memory or DASD smaller than the totals defined as the minimums disqualifies the order as an Express Product Offering. 1-core, 1.9 GHz offering One 1-core, 1.9 GHz processor card (#8289) One 1024 MB (2 x 512 MB) DIMMs (#1930) Two 73.4 GB 10,000 rpm disk drives (#1968) One IBM rack-mount drawer bezel and hardware One power supply, 600 watt (#7958) One DVD-ROM (#1903) One language group specify (#9300 or #97xx) One power cord Receive one processor entitlement (#8489) at no additional charge.

IBM Electronic Services IBM Global Services has transformed its delivery of hardware and software support services to put you on the road to higher systems availability. IBM Electronic Services is a Web-enabled solution that provides you with an exclusive, no-additional-charge enhancement to the service and support available on the IBM eserver platform. These services provide the opportunity for greater system availability due to faster problem resolution and preemptive monitoring. IBM Electronic Services is comprised of two separate, but complementary, elements: IBM Electronic Services news page and IBM Electronic Service Agent. IBM Electronic Services news page provides you with a single Internet entry point that replaces the multiple entry points traditionally used by customers to access IBM Internet services and support. The news page enables you to gain easier access to IBM resources for assistance in resolving technical problems. The IBM Electronic Service Agent is no-additional-charge software that resides on your IBM eserver system. It is designed to proactively monitor events and transmit system inventory information to IBM on a periodic, customer-defined timetable. The IBM Electronic Service Agent tracks system inventory, hardware error logs, and performance information. If the server is under a current IBM maintenance service agreement or within the IBM warranty period, the Service Agent automatically reports hardware problems to IBM. Early knowledge about potential problems enables IBM to provide proactive service that may result in higher system availability and performance. In addition, information collected through the Service Agent will be made available to IBM service support representatives when they are helping answer your questions or diagnosing problems
