The 9116-1A3 system p5 560Q server offers a powerful one or two building block system that scales from 4- to 16-cores. The system’s modular architecture means you can start with a 4-core, single QCM system and easily add an additional QCM to upgrade to an 8-core system. A second building block with two additional QCMs can also be added when more processing power is needed to expand the server to 16-cores. With the System p5 9116-1A3 560Q server, you have fewer management challenges because of its symmetric multiprocessor (SMP) building block technology. Additional I/O and storage capacity come standard with each building block added.
