� Lenovo übernimmt das x86 Server Portfolio inclusive der damit verbundenenResourcen von IBM

– System x, BladeCenter und Flex System Blade Server und Switches, zur x86-basierten

Flex zugehörige integrierte Infrastruktur, NeXtScale und iDataPlex Server und zugehörige Software, Blade Netzwerk und Maintenance Operations

– Entwicklung, Sales und Marketing, Finanz, Legal, Integrated Supply Chain, Operations,

IT und Manufacturing

– Service und Support (Maintenance)

� IBM behält das Enterprise Systems Portfolio, incl. System z Mainframes, Power Systeme, Storage Systeme, Power-basierte Flex Server sowie PureApplicationund PureData Appliances

� Lenovo und IBM planen in eine strategische Partnerschaft einzutreten

– Lenovo wird IBM’s Supplier von x86 Server Technologie– Lenovo wird folgende Produkte als OEM-Partner lizensieren und vertreiben: IBM

Storwize und Tape Storage Technologien, General Parallel File System, SmartCloud

Entry, Elemente des x86 System Software Portfolios und des Platform Computing

Portfolios

� Bis die Transaktion abgeschlossen ist, agieren die Firmen unabhängig

Die Transaktion wird voraussichtlich später im Jahr abgeschlossen und hängt unter anderem von der Genehmigung der Aufsichtsbehörden ab. In

Folge stehen auch noch ähnlich gelagerte lokale Genehmigungen in den betroffenen Ländern aus. Es wird erwartet, daß nach Abschluß Lenovo das globale x86 Server Geschäft von IBM, incl. Sales, Development, Marketing, Service und Support (Maintenance) mit dazugehörigen Services,

Finanz und bestimmten Teilen von Integrated Supply Chain (ISC) Operations übernimmt.

For the first time in 35+ years, HDD “sector size” is changing

�Reduces Sync & ECC overhead = more space per platter (7 - 11% savings)

Image source: http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/storage/2010/04/01/the-facts-4k-advanced-format-hard-disks/1

Advanced Format (AF) – platter density optimization

4K Native - 4Kn (TBD)

� 4KB physical sector

� 4KB logical sector

� 512B physical sector

� 512B logical sector

� Standard for 35+ years

� Platter density limitations

� EOL expected in ~2017

512 Emulation - 512e (3Q14)

� 4KB physical sector

� 512B logical sector

512 Native - 512n

Advanced Format (AF)Legacy format / Today

�Optimizes platter density to achieve higher capacity drives

� Larger and more powerful error correcting code

� Imminent – next HDD capacities achieved with advanced format

Transition from 512B to Advanced Format increases capacity & improves data integrity

30/09/2014 26

� 512e is supported by the following operating systems– Windows Server 2008 and above

– RHEL 5 and above

– SLES 11 SP2 and above

– VMWare 5.5 and above

� 4KN is supported by– Windows Server 2012 and above

– RHEL 6 and above

– SLES 11 SP2 and above

� Applications that maintain their own disk file system may or may not support 4KN– e.g. Exchange not yet fully tested by Microsoft

– e.g. IBM DB2

� IBM will ship 512e drives– Until broader OS and application support is available, we will not ship drives in 4KN mode

– We STRONGLY recommend that you do not mix existing (512N) and new (512e) drives in the same array

� All drives that are 512e will have ‘512e’ in the name and should have the ‘AF’ logo

Self-encrypting Drives (SEDs) for Government-Grade Data at Rest

SED Benefits:

�Data protection – without encryption key, drive is rendered unreadable

�Reduced TCO – eliminates costly overwriting/wiping process to simplify drive disposal

�Inexpensive storage – SEDs are priced slightly higher than standard hard disk drives

�Available on most System x platforms in various form factors, capacities & speeds

SED Pain Points:

�Scalability and management – customers need a solution that can be centrally managed

in local and distributed System x environments

Secure

SEDs are a powerful tool to protect dataSEDs are a powerful tool to protect data

SED Features:

�Ensures Safe Harbor for data privacy compliance without hindering IT efficiency

�Cryptographically erases drive in less than a second, enabling secure drive return,

disposal, or reuse

�Automatically locks drive & secures data the moment a drive is removed, misplaced, or

stolen
