AH226A is the PCIe Smart Array E500 SAS controller, an HBA with a mini SAS connector, in the I/O card tables of the HP Integrity rx3600 and the HP Integrity Superdome sx1000/sx2000.
In the rx3600 it is supported under Windows and under Linux (RHEL 4 U4 and SLES 10) with boot support. The rx3600 takes none on the PCI-X backplane and up to 4 on the PCI-Express/PCI-X backplane. Both operating system tables carry it next to the PCI-X Smart Array P600 (337972-B21), the PCIe SC44Ge SAS HBA AH303A and the PCIe Smart Array P800 AD335A.
In the Superdome sx1000 and sx2000 it is a PCIe E500 SAS HBA controller for Windows only, with boot support. The maximum is 24 cards in the 16-processor system, 48 in the 32-processor system and 96 in the 64-processor system.
The spare controller is 501574-001, a Smart Array E500 with 256MB. A second spare number, 405836-001, is a 256MB battery backed write cache (BBWC) memory module that does not include the controller board or battery.
