Oracle X5-4 Server Feature Overview

The Sun Server X5-4 is a 3RU rack-mount server system that features an Intel Xeon ® processor in either a two or four processor configuration. The system memory is contained on memory riser (MR) cards, each with the capacity for up to 12 low-voltage DDR3 DIMMs. The server can support up to eight MR cards (in a four-CPU system). The server has two redundant hot-plug capable power supplies and slot capability for up to 11 PCI-Express Gen 3 low-profile cards. An internal HBA card provides connectivity to the six SAS-3 drive slots supporting three storage drive technologies.

Oracle server X5-4

Specifications Description
Processor (CPU) Supported model: Intel Xeon® E7-8895 v3 processor 18-core 2.6 GHz processor with 3RU heat sink Supported configurations:
  • Two processors installed in sockets 0 and 1.s
  • Four processors installed in sockets 0 through 3.
Memory Up to eight memory riser cards are supported (two risers per CPU) in the server chassis. Each memory riser supports up to 12 DDR3-1600 ECC low-voltage registered or load-reduced DIMMs, allowing up to 24 DIMMs per processor. Installed DIMMs must be the same type and size.
  • Up to 96 DIMMs (24 DIMMs per processor)
  • In a two CPU system, you can install four memory riser cards and up to a maximum of 1.5 TB of system memory.
  • In a four CPU system, you can install eight memory riser cards and up to a maximum of 3 TB of system memory.
Refer to the Service Manual for DIMM population rules and supported configurations.
Storage devices For internal storage, the server chassis provides:
  • Six 2.5-inch drive bays, accessible at the front of the server. Supported storage drive technologies include:
    • Note - For a list of supported drives, refer to: Oracle Server X5-4 Product Notes
    • SAS-3 HDD
    • SAS-3 SSD
    • PCIe Gen 3 NVMe
  • SAS-3 HBA PCIe card options:
    • Sun Storage 12 Gb SAS PCIe RAID HBA.
      • Supports RAID levels : 0, 1, 1E, 10, 5, 5EE, 6 with Battery Backed Write Cache (BBWC).
    • PCIe SWITCH CARD.
      • Required for NVMe technology.
  • An optional DVD+/-RW drive on the front of the server, below the drive bays.
    • This SATA DVD drive connects to a USB-SATA bridge, so that the drive appears to the system as a USB storage device.
USB 2.0 ports (6)
  • Two ports on the front of the server
  • Two ports on the back of the server
  • Two interanl ports on the motherboard
    • Note - One of the internal USB port (P0) might contain the optional factory-installed Oracle System Assistant flash drive—a dedicated boot device used to set up the server. The Oracle System Assistant USB flash drive is not a storage drive. It must contain only files specific to Oracle System Assistant.
VGA ports Two high-density DB-15 video ports are available: one on the front of the system and one on the back. The server includes an embedded VGA 2D graphics controller (with 8 MB cache), which supports resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 x 16bits @ 60 Hz (1024 x 768) when viewed remotely using Oracle ILOM Remote Console Plus RKVMS.

Note - The VGA port available on the back panel supports VESA Device Data Channel for monitor identification.
PCI Express 3.0 I/O slots Eleven PCI Express 3.0 slots that accommodate low-profile PCIe cards. In configurations that include a SAS HBA card, the HBA card is installed in slot 2. All slots support x8 PCIe connections. Two slots are also capable of supporting x16 PCIe cards.
  • Slots 1 through 7, 9, and 10: x8 connector
  • Slots 8 and 11: x8 or x16 connector
Note - PCIe slots 7 through 11 are only functional in four CPU systems.
PCI Express I/O cards For a list of customer-orderable I/O cards, go to the Oracle x86 Servers web site and navigate to the Oracle Server X5-4 configuration support page: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/oracle-x86/overview/index.html
Ethernet ports Four 10 GbE RJ-45 Ethernet ports on back panel.
Service processor Emulex Pilot 3 baseboard management controller (BMC):
  • Mounted on a daughterboard.
  • Supports industry-standard IPMI feature set.
  • Supports remote KVMS, USB, DVD, CD, floppy, and ISO image over IP.
  • Supports Ethernet access to SP through a dedicated RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000) management port and optionally through one of the host 10 GbE ports (sideband management).
Power supplies Two 1030/2060 Watt AC input auto-ranging hot-swappable power supplies.

Note - A two-CPU system can operate with low-line 100 - 127 VAC or high-line 200 - 240 VAC sources. A four-CPU system can only operate with high-line 200 - 240 VAC sources.
Cooling fans Six hot-swappable, redundant, front-side, top-loading fans (cooling zones 0-2) and two redundant fans in each power supply (cooling zone 3).
Server management software The following server management software options are available:
  • Single-server management options:
    • Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) on the service processor.
    • Oracle System Assistant (OSA) on an optional internal USB flash drive.
    • Oracle Hardware Management Pack on the optional OSA internal USB flash drive.
  • Multiple server option: Oracle Enterprise Management Ops Center, downloadable from the Oracle site.
