1 Introduction With the completely newly developed FUJITSU Server BS2000 SE Series, FUJITSU now offers a server infrastructure which consists of three server lines. Under the umbrella of this SE infrastructure, multiple application scenarios are possible in various combinations for both mainframe applications and applications of the open world.
Page 14 Introduction The SE server offers the following advantages: – Cross-system administration with state-of-the-art, browser-based GUI (SE Manager) as a single point of operation – Centralized system monitoring of all components – End-to-end redundancy concept – Joint service process – All options for consolidation through virtualization –...

Page 28: Updates To The Basic Software And Add-On Packs
In contrast to the other update types, add-on packs are autonomous software products which FUJITSU makes available for installation on the Management Units. An add-on pack is either a software product which is installed by default (e.g. StorMan on the Management Unit) or one which is optional.
Page 29: Security Fix
Add-on packs have their own version schema and can be replaced independently of the basic software. An add-on package contains software which FUJITSU provides for use on the units. Currently add-on packs are only provided for the Management Unit. By default a distinction is made between installed and optional add-on packs: –...

Page 33: Networks
The Net Unit can be designed with redundancy in the interest of protection against failure. By default, SE700 and SE500 incorporate a redundant Net Unit. Redundancy can be ordered as an option for SE300. The BS2000 systems communicate with the MU over a private network, see section “Integration of BS2000 into the SE Manager”...
Page 34 – Management SVP Network Private (MSNPR) enables SVP communication to the SU /390 on SE700/SE500 In addition to the connections of the units to the switches of the Net Unit, direct cabling from the units to the customer network can also be used.

Page 46: Cluster
Cluster Architecture and strategies 2.5 Cluster Two types of clusters are possible in an SE server configuration. 2.5.1 Management Cluster If two SE servers are combined into one Management Unit, it is called a "Management Cluster" (or "SE Cluster"). A Management Cluster is configured by Customer Support based on the customer's wishes and is used to operate und administrate the two SE servers together.
Page 47: Su Cluster
Architecture and strategies Cluster Regarding administration and operation, all MUs of the Management Cluster are equally ranking. This means you can centrally administer and operate all objects of the whole SE server configuration (in this case: two SE servers) from one MU. The SE servers can be operated as long as one MU functions.

Architecture and strategies Management Unit and SE Manager Centrally managed accounts In addition to local accounts, the administrator can also permit LDAP accounts for the various roles. These accounts are managed centrally on an LDAP server (in particular also the password). In order to use LDAP accounts, the access to an LDAP server must be configured.
Page 54: Redundant Management Units
Management Unit and SE Manager Architecture and strategies 2.6.3 Redundant Management Units Central operation and administration of the SE server is continued after an MU has failed if there is MU redundancy, i.e. if the SE server has a second MU. Redundancy of the SKP functionality On an SE server with SU /390, two MUs mean that the SKP functionality is also provided with redundancy.
Page 55: Central Logging
Architecture and strategies Management Unit and SE Manager 2.6.4 Central logging The SE server configuration provides centralized access to the "Audit" and "Event Logging" functions as well as to the alarm management. Audit logging logs every action that is executed on a Unit (MU, SU, HNC) of the SE server configuration via the SE Manager, an add-on or a CLI command.
Page 56: Virtualization
Virtualization Architecture and strategies 2.7 Virtualization 2.7.1 Implementing VM2000 Depending on the architecture of the Server Unit there are two fundamentally different technical implementations of VM2000. Implementation principle for SU /390 On SU /390 VM2000 controls the hardware of the Server Unit. The VM2000 monitor manages all VMs and provides its functions via the VM2000 interface.
Page 57 Architecture and strategies Virtualization Implementation principle for SU x86 On SU x86 the X2000 basic system controls the hardware of the Server Unit. The VM2000 monitor manages the VMs with the guest system BS2000 (BS2000 VM) and provides its functions via the VM2000 user interface. The Xen hypervisor virtualizes the global resources CPU and main memory, controls the execution of all VMs (scheduling), and ensures load balancing for CPU usage.
Page 58 Virtualization Architecture and strategies Roles Actions for the BS2000 VMs can be initiated from different roles: Fundamental functions for VM management (including configuring BS2000 VMs), ● operating the BS2000 VMs, and device management are available to the administrator in the SE Manager. The full VM2000 functional scope is available to the VM2000 and VM administrators via ●...

Architecture and strategies Virtualization 2.7.2 Virtualization on Server Unit x86 Virtualization permits parallel execution of BS2000, Linux, and Windows systems with their applications on a Server Unit x86. The basic software X2000 together with Xen and if necessary VM2000 permits other systems to execute. BS2000 operation BS2000 operation is possible in either Native or VM2000 mode: In Native mode, precisely one Native BS2000 system is available.
Page 60: Cpu Pool Management
Virtualization Architecture and strategies 2.7.2.1 CPU pool management The real CPUs of the Server Unit x86 are distributed to groups of CPUs, which are known as CPU pools. Each real CPU can be assigned to at most one CPU pool. One main objective of this distribution to different CPU pools is to seal off the carrier system from the other systems and to separate the Native BS2000 system (or the BS2000 guest systems) from the XenVM guest systems.
Page 61 Architecture and strategies Virtualization Linux/Windows pool ● This pool exists only if a XenVM license is installed and when sufficient CPUs are available. It is used exclusively by XenVMs. Depending on the hardware and licenses which are installed, further unused real CPUs ●...
Page 62: Main Memory Management
Virtualization Architecture and strategies In the case of reduced or abnormal operation the basic system automatically reacts with the following step-by-step measures to rectify the lack of CPUs: 1. The (free) CPUs not used so far are used 2. Step-by-step reduction of the Linux/Windows pool to 2 CPUs 3.
Page 63: Xenvm Devices
Architecture and strategies Virtualization 2.7.2.4 XenVM devices When a XenVM is created, not only the main memory and CPUs are configured, but also virtual devices. From the viewpoint of the guest system (Linux/Windows), these devices look like real devices. To enable the guest system to recognize and use the devices configured on the XenVM, the corresponding device drivers must be installed in the guest system.
Page 64 Virtualization Architecture and strategies The following block-oriented virtual devices can be made available to a XenVM: Virtual disk ● The XenVM requires at least one disk in order to install and start the guest system. When the XenVM is configured, a virtual disk is created and the guest system is installed on it.
Page 65 Architecture and strategies Virtualization Disk pools and virtual disks The physical disks of the connected disk storage peripherals can be assigned to so-called disk pools and form a linear storage space. SAS-RAID systems (e.g. ETERNUS JX40) and external FC disks are supported. A virtual disk is a section of a disk pool.
Page 66 Virtualization Architecture and strategies A XenVM can be assigned installation sources; the Linux/Windows systems see these as (virtual) drives. This assignment takes place either when the XenVM is created or at a later point in time, i.e. during ongoing operation. For information on tasks in the XenVM device management see section “Managing installation sources”...
Page 67: Time Synchronization
Architecture and strategies Time synchronization 2.8 Time synchronization Basic state without external time synchronization In the SE server the MU, SU x86, HNC and the optional AUs each have their own time management. When the SE server is installed, Customer Support sets the exact time in the BIOS setup of each Unit.
Page 68 Time synchronization Architecture and strategies Time synchronization of the SU with an NTP server If a server with a more accurate system time can be reached over the network MANPU/MONPU, the local system time can be synchronized with this server using NTP (Network Time Protocol).
