4.3 Chassis support
The Power Systems compute nodes can be used only in the IBM Flex System
Enterprise Chassis. They do not fit in the previous IBM modular systems, such as
IBM iDataPlex or IBM BladeCenter.
There is no onboard video capability in the Power Systems compute nodes. The
machines are designed to use Serial Over LAN (SOL) or the IBM Flex System
Manager (FSM).
For more information about the IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis, see
Chapter 3, “Introduction to IBM Flex System” on page 47. For information about
FSM, see 6.4, “IBM Flex System Manager” on page 192.
4.4 System architecture
