  • Page 4 Features for performance improvement ® ® Dual-Core Intel Itanium processor and high-speed inter/intra Cell cache-to-cache data transfer At the heart of the Express5800/1000 series server is the ® ® 64-bit Dual-Core Intel Itanium processor, redesigned for even faster processing of larger data sets.
  • Page 5 Memory Data Size The benefit of the TAG based mechanism, thus implemented in the Express5800/1000 series server, is that by accessing the TAG, unnecessary inquiries to the cache memory are filtered for a smoother transfer of data. Furthermore, the Express5800/1000...
  • Page 6 Generally, in order to achieve reliability and availability on an open server, clustering would be implemented. However, clustering comes with a price tag. To keep costs at a minimum, the Express5800/1000 series servers were designed to achieve a high level of reliability and availability, but within a single server.
  • Page 7: Memory Mirroring

    To resolve this issue, the Express5800/1000 series servers have been designed to allow for the partial degradation of chipsets. Within each of the LSI chips, which make up the chipset, multiple LSI sub-units exist.
  • Page 8 (The 1080Rf has a crossbar-less configuration.) Complete modularization and redundancy Improvements in fault resilience, continuous operation and serviceability Major components of the Express5800/1000 series servers have been modularized, allowing for better serviceability and easy replacement in the event of a component failure.
  • Page 9 Integral clock distribution mechanisms such as the clock driver or the amplifier are, many times, not redundant. Such a construct leads to the existence of system single point of failures. The Express5800/1000 series servers have redundancy in not only Express5800/1000 Series Redundant: Active, Standby...
  • Page 10 In the event of a failure, the Express5800/1000 series servers also have the capability to automatically send detailed error logs to maintenance personnel, enabling us to further lessen the time required to resolve a system error.
  • Page 11: Investment Protection

    ® processors the Express5800/1000 series server, it is an ideal candidate for replacement or consolidation of older systems. The 1080Rf is a very compact 8U model which can support up to 8 internal 3.5 inch HDD and 16 PCI cards.
