Architecture
IBM System z10 is the first family with the new z / Architecture 2 architecture (ARCHLVL 3). New IBM operating systems, the first of which was announced z / VM version 6.1, are oriented to z / Architecture 2, that is, they cannot work on computers of previous families.
Comparison with System Z9
According to experts, Z10 in terms of indicators exceeds the previous model Z9 1.7 times.
- The amount of available main memory is increased from 512 GB to 1.5 TB .
- Maximum number of processors increased from 64 to 77.
- I / O throughput increased from 172.8 to 288 GB / s.
- Energy consumption reduced by 14%.
Z10 Server Design
Z10 server has 2 frames - A-frame and Z-frame.
A-frame has two frames - the upper frame, with processor slots and memory slots, and the lower frame, with an I / O slot.
The Z-frame also consists of two frames that contain two support elements, two I / O slots, a power source, batteries (optional) and cooling elements.
