  • Page 38: Memory Subsystem

    2.1.2 Memory Subsystem The memory subsystem controls memory access and cache memory. The M3000 server uses DDR2 SDRAMs and can contain up to eight memory modules. The memory subsystem supports up to two-way memory interleaving for high-speed memory access. 2.1.3 I/O Subsystem The I/O subsystem controls data transfer with I/O devices.
  • Page 39: Domain

    Domain The function that divides one server into multiple independent systems is called partitioning. The partitioning function enables arbitrary assignment of resources in the server according to the job load or processing amount. Individual systems thus divided are referred to as domains. Each domain runs on an independent Oracle Solaris OS.
  • Page 40: Ras

    RAS means the functions related to Reliability, Availability, and Serviceability. The RAS function minimizes the system downtime by providing error checking at adequate locations, and centralized monitoring and control of error checking. It further correctly determines faulty locations and enables replacement of faulty components during operation to minimize the system downtime.
  • Page 41: Availability

    2.4.2 Availability Availability represents the ratio of time the server is accessible and usable. An operating ratio is used as an index. Hardware and software problems in the system cannot be eliminated completely. To provide high availability, the system must be incorporated with mechanisms that enable continuous system operation even if a failure occurs in hardware such as components and devices, or in software such as the OS or business application software.
