Model abstract 8231-E1D

The IBM 8231 Power 710 Express Server Model E1D is a 2U rack-mount
server with one processor socket offering 4-c
4.2 GHz configurations. The Power 710 Express model
8231-E1D provides increased performance with the POWER7+
using the high-performance Gen2 PCIe
interfaces. The Power 710 Express server supports a maximum of eight
DDR3
in the base
configuration and four DIMM slots available with an optional memory
riser card, allowing for a maximum sys
(two memory DIMMs per feature) supported are 8 GB, 16 GB, 32
GB, and 64 GB and run at speeds of 1066 MHz. The
Memory Expansion provides 25% higher levels of
memory expansion than available with POWER7 chips. While POWE
expansion, which can effectively
double the server's maximum memory, POWER7+ servers offer up to 125%
memory e
memory maximum of
256 GB could effectively become 512 GB effective memory capacity.
This can enhance virtualiza
partition to do significantly more work with the same physical amount
of memory or a server to run more partitions and

As in POWER6 and POWER7, the POWER7+ processor has the ability to

do processor instruction retry and alternate
related faults. This significantly reduces exposure to
both hard (logic) and soft (transient) errors in the processor core.

generally are not repeatable. W
the POWER7+ processor will first automatically retry the
instruction. If the source of the error was truly transient, the

IBM systems prior to POWER6, this error would have caused a checkstop.
Hard failures are more difficult, being true logical errors that
will be replicated each time the instruction is repeated. Ret

processors have the ability to extract the failing instruction from
the faulty core and

faults, after which the failing core is dynamically deconfigured and
called out for replacement. These system

POWER7+ single processor check stopping
As in POWER6 and POWER7+ includes single processor check stopping

for certain faults that cannot be handled by th
the preceding section. This significantly
reduces the probability of any one processor affecting total system
availability.
Partition availability priority
Also available is the ability to assign availability priorities to

partitions. If an alternate processor recovery event requires

means of obtaining the spare resources is available, the system will
determine which
attempt to claim
the needed resource. On a properly configured POWER7+ processor-based
server, this allows that ca

POWER7+ cache availability
The L2 and L3 caches in the POWER7+ processor are protected with

threshold of correctable errors detected on a cache line can result in

capability for in

handling solid failures. In addition, the POWER7+ processors also
have the ability to dynamically subst

Special uncorrectable error handling
Special Uncorrectable Error (SUE) handling prevents an

uncorrectable error in memory or cache from immediately cau

whether it will ever be used again. If the error is irrelevant, it

PCI extended error handling
PCI extended error handling (EEH)-enabled adapters respond to a

special data packet generated from the affected PC
which will examine the affected bus, allow
the device driver to reset it, and continue without a system reboot.

devices, although some third-party PCI devices may not provide native
EEH support.
Predictive failure and dynamic component deallocation
Servers with POWER processors have long had the capability to

perform predictive failure analysis on certain critical co
memory. When these components exhibit certain
symptoms that may indicate a failure is imminent, the system can

Uncorrectable error recovery
When the auto-restart option is enabled, the system can

automatically restart following an unrecoverable software erro
induced (ac power) failure.
Serviceability
The purpose of serviceability is to repair the system while

attempting to minimize or eliminate service cost (within budg
customer satisfaction.
Serviceability includes system installation, MES (system
upgrades/downgrades), and system ma

(CIF), and Customer Replaceable Units (CRU)
• Error detection and Fault Isolation (ED/FI)

• First Failure Data Capture (FFDC)

Service environments
The HMC is a dedicated server that provides functions for

configuring and managing servers for either partitioned or fu
line interface (CLI). An HMC
attached to the system allows support personnel (with client
authorization) to remotely log
maintenance if required.
The POWER7+ processor-based platforms support two main service

environments:
• Attachment to one or more HMCs is a supported option by the

system. This is the default configuration for servers
or virtual I/O. In this case, all
servers have at least one logical partition.
• No HMC. There are two service strategies for non-HMC systems:
• Full system partition: A single partition owns all the server
resources and only one operating system may be i
• Partitioned system: In this configuration, the system can have
more than one partition and can be running mo

The Service Interface allows support personnel to communicate with

the service support applications in a server using
a clear, concise view of available
service applications, the Service Interface allows the support team to
manage system

effective way. Applications available through the Service Interface
are carefully configured and placed to g

Different service interfaces are used, depending on the state of

the system and its operating environment. The primary
• LEDs
• Operator Panel
• Service Processor menu
• Operating system service menu
• Service Focal Point on the HMC
• Service Focal Point Lite on IVM
In the light path LED implementation, the system can clearly

identify components for replacement by using specific com
servicer directly to the component by
signaling (turning on solid) the amber system fault LED, enclosure
fault LED, and
servicer can also use
the identify function to blink the FRU-level LED. When this function
is activated, a roll-up to the bl
LEDs will occur. These LEDs will turn on solid and can be used to
follow the light path from the system to the enclosure
First Failure Data Capture and Error Data Analysis
First Failure Data Capture (FFDC) is a technique that helps ensure

that when a fault is detected in a system, the root c
need to re-create the problem or run any
sort of extending tracing or diagnostics program. For the vast
majority of faults
cause can
also be detected automatically without servicer intervention.
FFDC information, error data analysis, and fault isolation are

necessary to implement the advanced serviceability techn
systems and to help determine the
failing items.
In the rare absence of FFDC and Error Data Analysis, diagnostics

are required to re-create the failure and determine th

With the integrated Service Processor, the system has the ability
to automatically send out an alert through a phone lin
of a critical system failure. A
hardware fault will also turn on the amber system fault LED located on
the system unit to a

• A system can be ordered with a single memory feature EM08, EM4B,
EM4C, or EM4D. The second memory featu
does not have to match the first memory feature. Memory
features can be mixed on either memory riser card.
• A minimum of one memory feature must be plugged into each memory
riser card. Empty memory riser cards are n
• There is a performance benefit when all DIMMs on a memory riser
card are of the same capacity.
• It is generally recommended that memory be installed evenly across
all memory riser cards in the system. Balanci
riser cards allows memory access in a consistent
manner and typically results in the best possible performance fo
memory fairly evenly across
multiple memory riser cards, compared to balancing memory exactly
evenly typically
