Enterprise Hardware

Fully licensed IBM ISeries Power 9 Servers, Ready To Configure.

Every system ships with its IBM i software license keys already in place — operating system, processor entitlement and user entitlement — so you’re not left chasing licensing after the hardware arrives.

5770-SS1 · Feature 5050. License key for the IBM i operating system

5770-SS1 · Feature 5051- Processor entitlement cores allocated to IBM.

5770-SS1 · Feature 5052 – User entitlement authorized users on the OS

We strongly recommend putting your iSeries server under IBM Software Maintenance
(SWMA) so you keep full use of the OS, along with patches and updates.

  Model overview

IBM Power S924 (9009-42A)

A high-performance, enterprise-class POWER9 system built for demanding workloads with unmatched reliability. Suited to hybrid cloud environments, analytics and mission-critical applications, the Power S924 delivers scalable performance, flexible I/O, and up to 4 TB of high-speed DDR4 memory.

Processing Power

1–2 POWER9 sockets, up to 24 active cores (8–24 cores, 3.4–4.0 GHz). All cores active for full performance.

Scalable memory

Up to 32 DDR4 DIMM slots and 4 TB of memory. Active Memory Expansion adds capacity via compression.

Flexible storage

Multiple backplane options with SAS RAID controller technology — from 12-bay to 18-bay SFF-3 configurations.

PCIe expansion

Up to 11 PCIe Gen3/Gen4 slots for networking, storage and accelerator cards. Gen4 doubles Gen3 bandwidth.

Energy efficiency

Intelligent cooling adjusts airflow automatically. EnergyScale technology plus hot-swap redundant power.

Built to scale

Starts at 32 GB minimum memory, paired modules for stability, with plenty of room to grow as demand does.
