QuickSpecs HP 9000 rp7440 Server Configuration Configuration The HP 9000 rp7440 Server is a symmetrical multiprocessing (SMP) server supporting up to eight high performance dual core HP PA RISC PA 8900 (1.068 GHz, 64 MB cache, 533 MHz FSB). The HP 9000 rp7440 is based on the HP sx2000 chipset. The rp7440 can be configured as a single SMP server or divided into two smaller, hardware partitioned (nPars), logical servers.
QuickSpecs HP 9000 rp7440 Server Configuration Memory Configuration The memory DIMMs used in the HP 9000 rp7440 Server are sold in pairs and are custom designed by HP. Each DIMM contains DDR II chips with full ECC protection. DIMM sizes of 1 GB, 2 GB, and 4 GB are supported. Each HP 9000 rp7440 Server cell board supports up to 16 DIMMs with 16 GB/s of peak memory bandwidth. HP 9000 rp7410/rp7420/rx7620 memory modules cannot be carried forward to the rp7440 server.
QuickSpecs HP 9000 rp7440 Server Configuration Performance Tuning Guidelines Memory Latencies For best performance, a cell should be configured with a multiple of eight DIMMs or four pairs (although the server will execute properly with an odd number of pairs). It takes eight DIMMs to populate both memory buses. Populating only one of the two memory buses on a cell board will deliver only half the peak memory bandwidth. Load memory equally across the available cell boards.
QuickSpecs HP 9000 rp7440 Server Configuration The internal peripheral bay supports up to four low profile disks and one removable media device (one removable media device can be configured with one DVD+RW or one DAT (or optionally, two slimline DVD modules). The internal disks are electrically divided into two pairs. SCSI controller chips located on each core I/O board set supports each pair of internal disks.

QuickSpecs HP 9000 rp7440 Server Configuration External Storage HP has the broadest, most robust server and storage line up in the industry, providing exactly the right fit for every need. Refer to the Storage Server matrix found in the introductory section of Chapter 4 of this configuration guide to see a matrix that highlights which storage device, server and operating system is interoperable.
QuickSpecs HP 9000 rp7440 Server Configuration AC Power Consumption The HP 9000 rp7440 Server power consumption will vary greatly depending on the hardware configuration and the input line voltages supplied at customer sites. Because of the disparity of line voltages throughout the world it's best to represent power consumption in VA (Volt Amperes). With power consumption being of high concern throughout the world, it's necessary to specify consumption in a couple of different ways.
QuickSpecs HP 9000 rp7440 Server Configuration Power Distribution Units 60 amp Power Distribution UnitAF916A (NA/JPN) and AF917A (International)-supported in 10K G2 rack E7683A (US) and E7684A (International)-supported in Rack System E Customers who prefer the fewest higher amperage connections from their AC line current source to the HP 9000 rp7440 Server can use the 60 amp power distribution unit (PDU). The AF916A and AF917A PDUs contain 12 C19 outlets. The E7683A and E7684A PDUs contain 8 C19 outlets.
QuickSpecs HP 9000 rp7440 Server Configuration Partitioning A hardware partition corresponds roughly to a single, standalone system. Each HP 9000 rp7440 Server can be subdivided into two partitions, each containing one cell that has minimal shared resources with the other cell (partition). Special programmable hardware in the cells defines the boundaries of a partition in such a way that the isolation is enforced from the actions of other partitions.
QuickSpecs HP 9000 rp7440 Server Configuration Software Partitioning HP 9000 rp7440 servers support virtual partitioning (vPars) to the single processor level similar to support on HP 9000 servers with HP-UX 11i v1. With vPars, a user will be able to support up to four separate virtual partitions each with an instance of HP-UX within each hard partition. VPars will provide many of the features of nPars but without the electrical isolation and support for hardware failures that nPars provides.
QuickSpecs HP 9000 rp7440 Server Configuration increased reliability and reduced downtime. HP Process Resource Manager (PRM) controls the resources that processes use during peak system load. PRM can manage the allocation of processor, memory resources, and disk bandwidth.
QuickSpecs HP 9000 rp7440 Server Configuration Racking The HP 9000 rp7440 Server was designed to provide industry leading performance density and availability when ordered in a racked configuration. At 10 EIA units (17.5 inches), four HP 9000 rp7440 servers can be mounted into a single HP two meter cabinet (HP 10K G2 Universal rack). The HP 9000 rp7440 Server industrial design and packaging was designed to allow easy and quick access to all of the system's components.
QuickSpecs HP 9000 rp7440 Server Upgrades Upgrades The rp7440 server is capable of in box upgrades from rp74xx Servers. You can also accomplish an upgrade by combining the purchase of a new server with trade up credits on the older server. Box swap upgrades may have the advantage of less upgrade down time. In box upgrades and box swap upgrades may have similar prices depending on the amount of memory and number of cell boards and processors that have to be upgraded.
