Introduction
The IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis covered in this guide is currently marketed worldwide. The intent of this
guide is to provide power information for installation planning of IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis. The guide
contains examples of the IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis connected to various PDUs and circuits.
This guide is best used in softcopy form since it contains hyperlinks for navigation. This document can still be
used in hardcopy as reference only. You can obtain the latest copy of this document from this web page:
http://www.ibm.com/support/techdocs/atsmastr.nsf/WebIndex/PRS4401
How to Use This Guide

All of the IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis configuration examples documented in this guide state the
supported redundancy in the “IBM Flex Power Management Policies” table. IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis
has configurations with N+N redundancy, where the goal is to provide the support for two power source
configurations. To take full advantage of this redundancy and reliability, the chassis must be powered from two
independent distribution panels and the IBM Flex Power Management Policy must be set to a policy that is N+N
capable. When properly wired and the appropriate power policy set, the IBM Flex SE chassis can remain in
operation if one of the two power sources fails.
Power connections to the IBM Flex chassis must be wired to comply with local and/or national electrical codes.
Consult your local AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction) to ensure compliance.
Important Notice: All wiring examples provided in this document are based on nameplate label ratings for the
systems.
Each example covered in this guide gives System x PDU options information (if available), along with information
on Flex power policies.

This table assumes worst case for ITEs and that means the ITEs are configured to the maximum. Currently, we
don’t have a method to plan for less than worst case or configuration based planning. IBM Power Configurator, in
the future, will be able to validate configurations that are less than worst case and are configuration based.

PureFlex Systems x-config Configuration Examples

What is the difference between PureFlex Systems and Flex Systems?
PureFlex Systems is a pre-configured, pre-integrated infrastructure with integrated management and cloud
capabilities, factory tuned from IBM with x86 and Power hybrid solution.
Flex Systems allows you to build and tune a custom configuration based on the most advanced blade server
in the market with maximum x86 EP compute and memory performance.
This section will cover some of the predefined PureFlex configurations examples available through Systems x.
Below is a link to the IBM System x and Cluster Solutions Configurator (x-config) used to create PureFlex
configurations for System x orders.

IBM Flex System Power Management Policies
IBM Flex Power Management Policies Overview

Below are the possible IBM Flex power management policies with simplified meanings.
AC Power Source Redundancy

Means N+N redundancy without nodes allowed to throttle due to a power fault
AC Power Source Redundancy with Compute Node Throttling Allowed

Means N+N redundancy with nodes allowed to throttle due to a power fault
Power Module Redundancy

Means N+1 redundancy without nodes allowed to throttle due to a power fault
Power Module Redundancy with Compute Nodes Throttling Allowed

Means N+1 redundancy with nodes allowed to throttle due to power fault
Basic Power Management

Means NO Redundancy

What is N+N and N+1 PSU Redundancy

N+N PSU redundancy is where N is the minimum number of PSUs need to keep the system operational, plus N
number of PSUs again for redundancy. Essentially, the number of PSUs are double of what is necessary to keep
the system operational. N+N is needed when a system needs to be power source redundant (See example “N+N
and N+1 Examples” diagram below).
N+1 PSU redundancy is where N is the minimum number of PSUs need to keep the system operational, plus one
PSU for redundancy. N+1 is used when a system needs only to tolerate a single PSU failure and stay operational
(See example “N+N and N+1 Examples” diagram below). Think of N+1 as having one PSU as a hot spare.
N+N and N+1 Examples

Notice in the N+1 diagrams below that there are two sources. Typically, N+1devices would be connected to one
power source since N+1devices do not derive any benefit from two power sources. It is shown here with two
power sources to demonstrate this lack of benefit for N+1devices.
