Both standard and tuned results may be reported. http: //www. cc. virginia. edu/stream/ Volano. Mark is a 100% pure Java server benchmark that creates long-lasting network client connections in groups of 20 and measures how long it takes for the clients to take turns broadcasting their messages to the group. The benchmark reports a score as the average number of messages transferred by the server per second. –The I following Transaction Processing Performance Council (TPC) benchmarks reflect the performance of the microprocessor, memory subsystem, disk subsystem, and some portions of the network: –tpm. C - TPC Benchmark C throughput measured as the average number of transactions processed per minute during a valid TPC-C configuration run of at least twenty minutes. –$/tpm. C - TPC Benchmark C price/performance ratio reflects the estimated five year total cost of ownership for system hardware, software, and maintenance and is determined by dividing such estimated total cost by the tpm. C for the system. –Qpp. H is the power metric of TPC-H and is based on a geometric mean of the 17 TPC-H queries, the insert test, and the delete test. It measures the ability of the system to give a single user the best possible response time by harnessing all available resources. Qpp. H is scaled based on database size from 30 GB to 10 TB. –Qth. H is the throughput metric of TPC-H and is a classical throughput measurement characterizing the ability of the system to support a multiuser workload in a balanced way. A number of query users is chosen, each of which must execute the full set of 17 queries in a different order. In the background, there is an update stream running a series of insert/delete operations. Qth. H is scaled based on the database size from 30 GB to 10 TB. –$/Qph. H is the price/performance metric for the TPC-H benchmark where Qph. H is the geometric mean of Qpp. H and Qth. H. The price is the five-year cost of ownership for the tested configuration and includes maintenance and software support. Revised February 6, 2004 7 © 2004 IBM Corporation

IBM e. Server p. Series Notes on Performance Estimates r. Perf –r. Perf (Relative Performance) is an estimate of commercial processing performance relative to other p. Series systems. It is derived from an IBM analytical model which uses characteristics from IBM internal workloads, TPC and SPEC benchmarks. The r. Perf model is not intended to represent any specific public benchmark results and should not be reasonably used in that way. The model simulates some of the system operations such as CPU, cache and memory. However, the model does not simulate disk or network I/O operations. –r. Perf estimates are calculated based on systems with the latest levels of AIX 5 L and other pertinent software at the time of system announcement. Actual performance will vary based on application and configuration specifics. The IBM ~ p. Series 640 is the baseline reference system and has a value of 1. 0. Although r. Perf may be used to approximate relative IBM UNIX commercial processing performance, actual system performance may vary and is dependent upon many factors including system hardware configuration and software design and configuration. –All performance estimates are provided "AS IS" and no warranties or guarantees are expressed or implied by IBM. Buyers should consult other sources of information, including system benchmarks, and application sizing guides to evaluate the performance of a system they are considering buying. For additional information about r. Perf, contact your local IBM office or IBM authorized reseller. I Revised June 28, 2004 9 © 2004 IBM Corporation

Dynamically reassign memory I/O Failing memory bit steered via bit-steering if error threshold to spare memory bit is reached on same bit Chipkill X X . . Spare memory bits I Scatter memory chip bits across four separate ECC words for Chipkill recovery ŸBit-scattering allows normal single bit ECC error processing, thereby keeping system running with a Chipkill failure. ŸBit-steering allows memory lines from spare memory bits to be dynamically reassigned to a memory module with a faulty line to keep system running. ŸIf all spare bits are utilized, and threshold is reached, the Service Processor will be invoked to request deferred maintenance at a time acceptable to client. 83 © 2004 IBM Corporation
